Probably iOS. I use AdGuard and sideload a YouTube tweak to dodge most of the ads on my browsing experience

It’s wild how short some videos are with sponsorblock enabled to skip almost everything. I don’t watch LTT for ethical reasons anymore, but damn, did some 10 minute videos go by in like 2 minutes

You’ll probably need to provide more details about the premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket maximums of PPO vs HDHP, projected healthcare costs (at least your current year costs so far), and how much you are able to stomach for the cost now vs later

PPO might be better if you can stomach the premiums and hit your deductible early enough. HDHP might be better if you can stomach the higher deductible and reimburse yourself years down the line after your HSA has had some time to be invested and grow from its investments

It’s hard to say without concrete numbers and only going based off thoughts and feelings

It is kind of a new thing, but there has been more activity within recent years for employees at tech companies to unionize. Most notable would probably be NPR, Alphabet, and NYT

LK-99 is a room temperature superconductor. It’s a big deal, because it means that energy can be transferred with 0 loss and it doesn’t require loads of cooling to maintain that property (unlike “traditional superconductors” that need liquid nitrogen and other cooling to have that property). An analogy would be like if you got paid all of your paycheck all the time instead of having taxes taken out. The money you get paid is energy and the loss is taxes

There’s controversy that LK-99 can’t be replicated

Going over to the programming side, sometimes you’ll work on a feature and when others go test it, it doesn’t work. A common excuse heard is “well, it works on my machine”. Docker containers solve that problem by essentially (but not really) making a copy of “my machine” and letting people run the program/feature on that copy

So the joke is, if the korean researchers were able to create it in their lab environment (their machine), why don’t they just make a copy of their lab and let others use it

this is a very gross oversimplification, so feel free to suggest any corrections

When I applied, I never got a notification that it got approved, but I could post and comment on that instance. So you might have been in a similar situation as me or the admins are still dealing with a large influx of people

I wonder if it will be a repeat of last time where telecom companies took the money and did nothing with it

I’m hopeful that at least a quarter of it will make it to homes/areas that need it
