Like many words, it can be important to know its history.

If anybody is curious about the work of Science being a fundamentally human activity, check out Bruno Latour. I'm sure there are others, but this is one I've recently discovered. NYTimes did a good article on him: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/25/magazine/bruno-latour-pos...

Pointing out a single fallacy in the context of the whole argument seems pretty facile to me.

So a rich white man born into privilege and complicit with America's domestic racism, wealth inequalities, and staunch disregard for climate change, supports a candidate with the same ideals?

IQAir is just a fan, but it isn't just a HEPA filter. IIRC, the bottom filter is a large particle filter (for dust and hair), the middle filter is a carbon filter (for smoke and paint) and the third is a micro particle filter (<2.5pm). HEPA is a loose industry standard and not everybody meets those requirements anyway.

But yeah, you can easily just put a few dryer sheets on the back of your fan if all you're worried about is large dust and hair particles. The only reason to buy IQAir is if you're paranoid or severely allergic/have health problems.

It's common to avoid adverbs in general when writing fiction IIRC.

I just want to say that I really love that they're using the pronoun "she" in the beginning. It is refreshing to hear when most business books are directed using male pronouns.

Cool!

I'm actually in the process of creating a presentation on Programming Concept Analogies for Dragon Ball Z fans (ex. variables and capsules; polymorphism and super saiyan levels).

That JavaScript isn't a serious programming language is a decade old understanding of the ecosystem and a disregard to the current day use of the language. A lot has happened in the last decade to make JavaScript "more serious" like NodeJS, TypeScript, and React. Even on the back-end, it's becoming more and more popular.

i have 8 friends

1. flask-base for back-end

2. create-react-app for front-end

3. digital ocean for hosting

I just cp files from local to server and use a couple different bash scripts for dev vs prod.

I think one of those points is the historical context the argument considers and the consequences that surround it and who is making the argument. For example, if an accused white supremacist in a position of power makes an argument for immigration, should we apply this charity?

This is super cool. Are there any demonstrations comparing performance between electron and your app?

I think the difference between your example and the article's is that it's easier to dismiss an account of 100 fools and only with a little effort and maybe some arrogance to dismiss bodies of work promoted by various reputable institutions. Work done in this way probably makes the only way we can communicate complex ideas more "robust".

Love Flask. It is my favorite back-end framework and has fit all of my needs. Getting a server up and running with Flask is incredibly simple and if anybody hasn't played with it yet, I highly recommend it.

I didn't have credit when I opened my account with a CU. I don't even think they ran a credit check.

I don't know. I could easily spend $200 bucks a week on lunch and dinner alone.

This a shameless plug?

Most likely not the answer you're looking for...

The most recent act of negligence by a journalistic institution that has happened recently was reported by The Intercept (Glenn Greenwald's gig) about the Washington Post's reporting on how Russia was behind the "fake news" propaganda that was unfortunately in itself a sort of propaganda. To discover why, you'll have to read those articles yourself.

In any case, I think journalists typically keep each other in check. And, thankfully, in prestigious institutions you're judged by the quality of your work and whether or not it can be fact checked. Unfortunately, reported facts in the United States are about as big of a hand patting Barack Obama on the back after winning the next election. Everything is irony and nothing is sincerity.

Went to Academy of Art University in SF. Dropped out in 2011. Got a job as a Graphic Designer but switched it up and became a Software Engineer this last year. Honestly LOVE design, but not worth it to go to school. Same with Computer Science... everything is online for both of those disciplines and I wish it were for other disciplines as well.

There was another post about what you would do differently if you could and it would be more creativity but with a scientific twist to it, I don't know... maybe science fiction? Maybe teaching. Maybe sailing like those kids 'la vagabonde'. So inspiring.

29 years old in exactly one week. I began self-teaching computer science about 5 years ago off and on. Became more passionate about it within the last 3. Landed my first Software Engineering job for an agency about 6 months ago that does product development for start-ups.

Fallback is design for which I also went to art school but never finished that either. Also have lots of friends and family support and a small savings to keep me focused.

Yeah, love NearlyFreeSpeech. I think I put in like $20 bucks and it covers me for over half the year. A few single page static sites to host some portfolios.

What about HTML themes or other themes that do not include Wordpress?

It is pretty difficult to filter out ultra fine particles anyway and some of the best air purifiers can claim to do a lot. Obviously, you will be breathing that stuff every day and unless the air around you is seriously affecting your health, you don't need a high end air purifier. This is my opinion, but unless you have allergies or asthma, most top of the line air filtration systems won't have much of an impact on your day to day and I would personally suggest any $250-$500 range air purifier. This content in this article[1] does a really good job at comparing air purifiers but they suggest an ionizer which can have negative effects.

Things to look out for: - No ionizer. - No uv light. - True HEPA is fine but if they've trademarked or registered their HEPA brand (HyperHEPA, HEPASilent), I would ask them more about what that means and they should provide a pretty good answer within the context.

I just want to point out that the HEPA ratings are pretty lax on how much and what they are effectively cleaning in the air. Pretty much everybody can use the word HEPA and it not mean that much if they are, for example, using an ionizer that essentially just makes the particles 'sticky' while putting them back in the air.

I really want to go back and mention "The Design of Everyday Things" by Don Norman because the book lives and breathes what any designer and developer should strive for when designing (and developing) a web, mobile, or desktop app. Seriously, go read it.

I would LOVE to know what the negative consequences are of compulsory income redistribution and for whom. In fact, I wonder if there are any positives. Social democracy is OF COURSE a recent phenomenon -- I mean, what era are you comparing it to?

Furthermore, and not saying that I disagree about your comment on the New Left, but "free association" is a non-sequitur even in the society you wish to exist (which doesn't [sucks]).
