In this version, the sheep all get stuck in the corners and edges. This doesn’t happen in the Fable version.

All public infrastructure benefits the public but the role of our governance is to correctly prioritize. $100 billion spent on nuclear power plants is $100 billion being withheld from other critical social services.

Typically you store a hash of user passwords instead, then when logging in you hash the user password client-side and compare the hashes. This acts like a one-way function that protects the password while letting the user authenticate themselves.

Read through the McMaster catalogue.
My coworker was given this advice when they first started their mechanical engineering and design job. They originally thought it was some kind of hazing and after an hour of reading couldn’t put it down.

I noticed that the dots on the surface of the sphere are evenly spaced out close to the equator, but because there is a consistent number of dots in each ring, they are very close together when you reach the poles.
One way to get dots evenly spread out over the surface of a sphere is to use a phyllotaxis spiral pattern.

>I've been in sf for about 6 years now and love the people, politics, and food here
That's how you know it's fake, nobody loves the politics in SF.

I think they make a totally fair critique. The quote you pulled out is specifically about the fact that battery replacement alone takes 162 pages to get through.
They also describe the manual as “ they’re in-depth, mostly logical, and well worth an additional repairability point” higher up in the article.

For most of the pandemic in the US it's been about that easy, but right now specifically it's very challenging to get tests because of the Omicron surge

Proof by inductions often involve showing that Pn implies Pn+1. That is, that a statement's truth for n implies it's truth for n+1. That's what's being done here, and it's a perfectly valid part of this type of proof.

Testosterone's supposed correlation with violent crime is the myth that just won't die.

I came across this article a few weeks ago. The 23% number seems to be from this poll https://morningconsult.com/influencer-report-engaging-gen-z-...
The author is mistakenly adding the 12% and 11% numbers. The real proportion is around 12% of young people. Given that in the poll, "influencer" is used basically synonymously with "celebrity" (Will Smith is considered an influencer) I'd say this is pretty reasonable actually.
