> hot water tanks should be purged yearly (to get rid of the debris collecting on the bottom)

Note that this is only the case if you have been doing this already from when it was new. It isn't necessarily a great idea to try to purge on an older water tank since the valve can start to leak if you open it and it hasn't been used in a long time.

There are still some Taco Bells that sell the Chili Cheese burrito (at least in the Mid-West US)! Unfortunately not as cheap as it used to be (its ~$3 here), but any time I go to a Taco Bell I always ask just in case.

I believe they view the file order as a feature. It forces a certain style/thought process in how you design your project.

It's also part of the ocaml legacy (I believe file order matters in ocaml as well).

Just guessing, but based on context, I think they meant their daily usage results in 2000kWh per month.

I don't think his point was directly related to people's religious views today, but the type of people who originally came to the US and how their views and norms have impacted the culture up to today.

Ehh Nevermind. I hadn't made it through all the comments and I see other people are seeing these ads on the Shield.

Nvidia Shield (I think it's considered an AndroidTV). It isn't as cheap as a chromecast and it isn't plain Linux but my wife and I are thinking about getting one for our TV because of the convenience/ease-of-use. You can still cast to it if you need to, but you can get all of the streaming apps you need and I don't think I've seen an ad at all (other than in a streaming app such as Prime).

Space itself is expanding. At small scales, it isn't really that "fast" (gravity can/does overcome the effects within our galaxy and the Local Group). However, at large scales, it can exceed the speed of light (google "Hubble volume") so at some point, light emitted from sources outside this range will not longer reach us because the space between here and there expanded faster than light travels.

| and it seems unlikely that the earth was the exact center of the Big Bang.

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that everything was at the exact center of the Big Bang? Assuming it started from a singularity (which can't really be known), everything was in the center.

I don't think that is quite true. I believe with UDP there is no promise of packets being received in order. I think this article is saying that you still get the benefits of processing the packets in the order received, but you don't have to worry about the latency of waiting for the re-transmission of any packets.
