Ah yes, the Marty McFly strategy.

For those not in the US: it may be covered, but normally it’s a separate insurance plan and not covered by your regular health insurance.
It also varies what type of “dental” care. Some mouth/gum surgeries may be covered by the health plan. I think most dental plans cover checkups. All this varies wildly with your employer and insurance election, though.
Lol true
To OP’s point, my friends say I don’t have an accent, but the number of people who ask me where I’m from says otherwise.
As someone with a slight accent: good. I want you to hear what I’m saying, not my accent.
Regardless, active listening is the way to go. Learn what to listen for and maybe try to actively place the accent once you recognize the markers.
Just please listen to the words first.
Check with your employer if they will help with your continued education somehow. My employer, for example, will reimburse some tuition costs if you get a degree while working there.
As a nurse you can continue up to and including a PhD. Or you can go to medical school and become an MD. There are many options. Try to find a few that sound interesting and learn more about them.
If you feel you have unused potential, maybe making a change in your career is just what you need. Even if you just look into what it would take, it could put things in perspective for you.
Your move, Blizzard and Bethesda. This is the boss fight we need.
Please don’t do this. People working at libraries aren’t paid enough to deal with that bullshit.
John Oliver did a show related to this. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of restrictions on what can happen to your body once it has been donated.
You don’t say what type of programming you do, or if you’re just learning or developing professionally, but maybe something fully online would work? For example repl.it, stackblitz, or Visual Studio Code for the Web.
I second the suggestion for getting a Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad.
Sounds like great incentive for Zuck to do everything in his power to make sure Trump doesn’t get reelected.
What are some good alternatives if it gets shut down? Preferably FOSS.
If we’re talking about technology that is no longer widely used, it’s probably my old HP48SX from the early 90s. Still use it sometimes as a desk calculator, though I have an HP48GX emulator app on my phone as well. Gotta have my RPN.
That’s probably what it is. I didn’t go to school in the US but my kids went to school in Ohio and my impression was that metric was not the primary system of units used in education, though it was taught.
The argument I hear most often from people defending the US customary units is that the units are more intuitive. For example, an inch is about the size of a thumb, or 0 degrees is fucking cold and 100 is fucking hot.
On the whole, people seem receptive to metric, but don’t want the hassle or cost to convert. They seem content to use metric where it’s important (science, military) and keep the old ways elsewhere.
I currently with in healthcare research and almost everything not patient facing is done in metric, but there are still conversions going on everywhere, leading to data problems that are hard to correct later. People used to thinking in ounces putting those where grams were supposed to go, and so on.
Did you go to school in the 70s or 80s? I don’t think it’s like that anymore.
Reminder to vote for any library funding levy in your area. They depend on it to stay open.
Another Darknet Diaries fan here. Very approachable, centered around cyber security and privacy. It’s the only one I am currently listening to, but I am going to check out some of the others from this thread.
What do you mean? RedHat even used to come with an installer localized in their language.
Unless I misunderstood what you said, that’s not it either. 50% chance of rain means exactly that: according to their forecast models, there is a 50% change it will rain. Snopes did a writeup of this.
It really depends on how much you can tolerate. I don’t know if full time is 40 hours in Germany like it is in the US.
If you have an option to try it for some time and fall back to plan B, why not do that? Then you can tell if the money is worth the extra work time.
Try turning the phone to landscape mode before tapping the full screen button. It works for me in YouTube on Pixel 7a.
