It has to map the area around you so it has a really hard time being used outdoors and is almost completely unusable when moving in a vehicle.

My brother went through a Stem Cell Transplant for CIDP. He went from being nearly wheelchair bound to being able to run. Look into Dr. Burt from Northwestern in Chicago for a domestic way to get this done.

on: Snap commits $2B over 5 years for Google Cloud infrastructure
I guess I should have been more specific. Really I mean the basics like how tax brackets and deductions work.

on: Pricing Comparison: Cloud Hosts
Great marketing on Linode's part by adding in the Bandwidth to the cost. It is kind of the opposite of Tesla factoring in the rebates and other cost savings in their pricing. Linode is instead inflating competitors pricing assuming maximum bandwidth usage which wouldn't happen in most normal scenarios with a vm that size.

on: Micro heaters cut 87% off my electric heat bill
I have often wondered why we don't all sleep in heated pods (bubbles). All of the wasted heat to keep houses warm at night drives me nuts.

I believe the way Mormonism differentiates itself from other forms of Christianity is the additional text (Book of Mormon) and the addition of Joeseph Smith as a prophet.

Fair enough but I figure it never hurts to ask if there is a chance at learning something new or interesting and the comments in this thread have proved interesting enough for me.

Good point, I guess that may have had a bit less controversy if it was only a couple of buckets. Also it is sad to see something core to our humanity moderated off the front page.

on: Why I don’t eat on Mondays
That depends on how many calories you are taking in. If you eat 5k calories a day and suddenly fast 1 day a week you aren't going to lose weight you will just stop gaining as quickly.

"I still try to adhere to a low carb diet, eating mainly meat and vegetables and severely limiting my intake of bread, pasta, rice and potatoes." - I think this is a much larger player in his weight loss success than he may realize.
