I only use it about once a month, but there's no substitute.

Here's hoping there's a Kindle version.

"I know that far too many neighbors in our country have been hurt and treated unfairly over the last few years," Obama said. "And I believe in God's command to love thy neighbor as thyself. I know a version of that golden rule is found in every major religion and every set of beliefs."

This. Forget hating this guy: it's simply that there's something wrong with him, he's not fit for office.

I found satisfaction in quietly responding to everything they say with "that's a lie" or "you're lying". Avoids getting into an argument over technical details and seems to get their attention.

You might want to take the claims of Professor Greenfield with a pinch of salt.

Apps keep quitting/crashing unexpectedly even after frequent restarts or even when only one app is running. Any ideas on what might be causing this? by zoombahin ipad

Do a sync and then look at your crash logs. You can at least find out whether it's a low-memory event or something else, and what apps were running at the time.

The BBC had that title originally? - wow, that's sloppy work on their part.

I agree about not being able to edit post titles, but I can see how it could be abused (also it's part of the URL, and is probably used as the Reddit database key for the post as well).

The submission title is incorrect; from the very start of the article :-

UK passport forms are being updated to include options for same-sex parents.

New forms including "parent one" and "parent two" alongside "mother" and "father" are expected to be brought in by the end of the year.

Could Peano Arithmetic be Inconsistent? - The n-Category Café by tardibearin puremathematics

[–]tardibear[S] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Edward Nelson, a math professor at Princeton, is writing a book called Elements in which he claims to prove the inconsistency of Peano arithmetic. ...

I have no idea if Nelson’s proof is correct! He has, however, done good mathematics in the past.

Those two types are equivalent as far as the compiler is concerned. However, using a,a1 rather than a,b might be used to hint to a human reader that a and a1 are related to each other.

"When people first visit the site, it will be very enticing and once they go just a little bit deeper, that's when they'll be confronted with images that we hope will make them stop and think and get them talking and hopefully encourage them to make a lifestyle change to a plant-based diet," Rajt said.

Porn .. porn with vegetables .. feeling guilty about meat - not sure what story they're trying to tell here.
