They brush aside the differences in obesity-related illness, more costly and more common in the US. Other studies have shown treatment for obesity, heart disease, and so on, given equivalent health status, are better in the US.
Basically, they acknowledge, then largely ignore, things like socioeconomic status, race, and cheeseburger-itis, looking solely at relative improvements in mortality, and comparing that between countries, which makes the study invalid. Why? Because cheeseburger-itis might as well be an anti-health system which is largely absent from other countries, countervailing against positive gains from medicine.
Games are the only thing stopping me from moving to Android (though pure 8 was an absolute showstopper as a next computer, too. I'm at an unheard of 4 years old and counting).
But then I wonder, I only play older games. All new games for PC are console ports. A handful of powers at a time because that's all a controller can handle, that kind of thing, and I can't stand them.
There's nothing but some 3+ year old games keeping me on a PC, and that's evaporatingly weak.
You basically kicked the ass of C3-P0 as he gathered twigs. Oh oh, here comes HK-47. Shoot, immediately reverse to get out of range, full knowledge of your cooldowns state, following pre-calculated response tables.
Why don't you move over there and chip at that tin vein and give him half?
There was an interesting study from 30 years ago where they fed people whipped concoctions woth varying amounts of sugar and fat.
The thinner you were, the more you preferred the sweeter ones, and the fatter, the fatter ones. As fat contains more calories per unit than sugar, it could be enlightening...
If anyone actually paid attention, which they don't. Basically fat people are fat more because of cheeseburgers and pizza than cakes and donuts. Actually, it correlates with diet soda. Actually, it correlates with emphasis on low salt and low fat. Actually, it correlates with longer haircuts for men keeping the head warmer and cutting energy loss by 25%. Actually it correlates with far more bread and pasta per meal, upping calories by 2/5ths. Actually...
It's not the users that are the problem its the dev teams because if you're writing for Apple you only need to test on few handsets & tablets. However, if you're writing for Android you need to test on fucking hundreds of different hand sets because each manufacturer has fucked with the OS.
We bought a mail order PC from Gateway way, way back when, and tried to run Doom on it. It didn't run.
We called them up and they said, "We don't believe Doom is the kind of thing we need to support." We sent it back anyway and got a computer somewhere else.
That was probably the last time they did that, as their growth continued.
They can't force him to say a damned thing. They can only force him to be silent.
They could, of course, trump up some charge (or even use a real violation, the arguable real purpose to well over 60,000 laws -- having something you can lord over the head of everyone somehow) and let him off the hook if he lies out his ass.
My god. How did we get to this cynical point in our own government?
I will not speak out about this practice that hurts me indirectly because I am deluded into thinking that any day now I'll be rich enough to make use of it myself.

Narrower and smaller? As American narrows seats and strips padding, Americans have been redesigning their seats fatter and wider for 30 years.
And adding inch after inch of padding, too.
After reading the linked article I just have one question: Who the hell decided mobile versions of sites need an auto-reappear navigation bar?
Come on! Screen real estate is already precious, and you clowns take it up? If I want to navigate, I'll do a thumb whip, thanks.
At least add a close box to the stupid thing, you idiots. No, you don't know better than me.
I read an extra Coke can costs about $500 a year in fuel. Still that's not that much per flight, like less than a dollar.
I'll happily budget less than a dollar per flight, for me anyway, don't know about the gp, for a floatation device.
As for fuel itself, I'll happily burn all the oil in Saudi Arabia to save my life.

Too much searching for Goldenrods.

If you're using VBA in Excel, you can speed it up a ton by putting this at the beginning of your function:
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
And restore it with ...Automatic at the end.
Do this at the top level with a wrapper function whose only purpose is to disable and enable that, calling the real function in between.
If you want a real speedup, I am available for part time work in C or C++.
I would be afraid of releasing a tool that automated facial expressions for fear of getting hit with a dozen patent letters.

Struggled with Windows 2.11 here.
If they sell it, they could be encouraging people to violate some EULA contract. Isn't it illegal to do that?

They knock you out -- they have to test the automstic defibrillator part and you don't want to be conscious.

And yes, I do get off on looking at those blacked-out lines on partially de-classified documents. My horrible secret is now known.

Nah, we won't have algorithm-driven busses, just Al Gore-driven busses.

Sounds about right for a programmer.

Most likely it is, or will be, interfering with the feeding of ads. Nothing mysterious.
