A flare gun is essentially a 3d printed single use .410 shotgun.

They all have their niche and strengths/weakensses

At this point i just interpret AI to be "we have lots of select statements and inner joins "

LED's produce a lot of heat at higher "wattages". IE: the 75w+ equivalents can throw out some heat. And if its recessed in a can or upside down on a chandelier but with a decorative covering, they will often go out due to heat. Hell I have seen some with giant heatsinks on them to try and compensate.

I had a series of 150w LED's i was burning through. Eventually I moved to just replace the bulb and fixture with a ceiling light like this

LED's are also sensitive to dirty power, probably more-so than Incandescents. I have run through some because of surges and brownouts as well.

I generally use Phillips brand LED bulbs if it helps, but do have some others.

Finally, the lower wattage bulbs (ie: 10-15w equivalent) will sometimes have a "pulse" to it. Dimmer LED's also tend to do this, and you often have to tune the dimmer switch to a higher brightness for "low" to compensate.

All that said, they are still leaps and bounds better.

I mean. Hes (and his lawyer today) are trying to conflate actually tampering with attempting to tamper.

He definately tried to tamper and destroy evidence. And now is proclaiming innocence by saying it didnt happen.

Thats like responding to a charge of attempting rape by saying "well i didnt rape"

I mean many games usually have an easy mode.

I frequently play on it.

That is totally wild. Very good way to solve two problems at once

1. Avoid euthanizing problem bears.
2. Test containers against bears that are already proven more adept than their wilder peers

"There is a considerable overlap between the brain power of the most intelligent bears and the least intelligent tourists"

I believe it. How else do people die out there from buffalo. We have selective bred out a lot of our survival instinct.

The problem here is so many people are used to tech running at a loss on the books and/subsiding operating costs by selling customer data and analytics.

The reality is running tech companies is hard and expensive. The money here goes straight back into development. It’s just out of beta since march, and they have increased their quotas since I have been a customer.

But people are spoiled by free where you aren’t a customer. You are the product. If you are cool with that it’s fine. This isn’t the product for you.

For me, I like the idea and the searches are better than DDG/bing and startpage/google. So it’s worth the cost personally. I would rather pay that than say…Amazon prime where I’m both the customer and the product.

Gold was always dumb. Why spend money on upvotes.

The fact that people actually ever bought it (and said thank you for it) was super weird to me.

“No one is going to write you were a good employee on your headstone. “

And

“Time is the one form of compensation you can never recoup. “

Meaning Time off from work is valuable, more so than the $$ value especially once you get to a certain point.

My wife is a teacher. She had a student that would do no work in class, or even detention after.

Suddenly would have a college level writing skill at home.

Kid could not replicate or even summarize what was in his essays at school.

When the parent was contacted and was asked why the kid performs so poorly at school and suddenly the vocabulary and sentence structure is amazing at home is because my wife sucks and should “do better”

Admin would not confront or address the issue.

It happened 3+ times with the same student last year. This is at one of the better schools in the state.
