“one standard”

Internationally where English is understood

“Ticket scalpers sue venue for adding more seating capacity, says it erodes their profitability”

These messages are rarely more than 6 words, so OCR is kind of overkill

If the error requires a developer (me) to look into it, I capture it in the backend - the only messages I pass on to the client are those a 6th grader could understand

You are giving end users too much credit.

I get like a half dozen emails a day about “an error message”, which I always have to go back and ask what the message actually says

The replies to these are always screenshots, because if it wasn’t they may have accidentally read it by mistake

About half the time, the error message is “credit card on file is expired” or “12a-482-223 is not a valid phone number”, or some other thing that makes it impossible for me to send an email reply that isn’t condescending, but when I just say “it means your credit card is expired”, I get thanked for how prompt I was at solving their problem

Euphoric

Yes it is. No cones = no color.

Achromatopsia is not the same as deuteranomaly, where you have less functional cones and see some, albeit muted colors

They said “larger proportion”, and 2% is larger than 1%

Rod monochromacy (achromatopsia)

Achromatopsia is when you don’t have any cones. This is true color blindness. You won’t see any colors, and will probably have reduced or low vision and other complications.

It’s a thing everywhere in Canada. Or at least everywhere north of Toronto nowadays #globalwarming

I worked in a fruit fly lab for years during grad school, so I’m pretty much fucked

Damn you literally drove OP off the deep end

the first clinical trial — dubbed MEOW-1 (ManagEment of OverWeight cats with OKV-119)

Nice

The judge noted that Tannous made $1,691.98 in purchases before the bag arrived, yet the CTA awarded him more than $2,000 in compensation.

“I felt it’s fair,” said Tannous about the CTA decision.

Purchases made after the luggage arrived — which raised concerns for the judge — were a pair of sneakers ($433.61) and a personally monogrammed Tumi suitcase ($1,310.40).

Yarn isn’t a JS runtime

They probably caught on when people started buying hundreds of xboxes to build supercomputing clusters

It’s absolutely better to get chicken pox than shingles

It’s not one or the other though. If you don’t get chicken pox you can’t get shingles

You would probably generate more thermoelectric power strapping the unit to the side of a water barrel painted black due to the higher heat capacity

The old ones are copper, not that sorting through a haystack of pennies trying to find the 3.5c needle is a productive use of time
