Do you take exception to that statement if it came from someone with Delayed sleep phase disorder? [1]

" According Cary Cooper, a psychologist and professor at Lancaster University Management School, when people who have DSPS wake up early for work, they become sleep deprived which causes them to be less efficient, innovative, and creative at the office. People with DSPS have trouble finding positions that allow them to work hours that let them get enough sleep. This also results in more stress, and can cause workplace accidents. " [2]

If there can be up to 12 ms difference, how can they definitively say someone who swam a 50.100 s beat someone who swam a 50.110 s?

"However, Spotify recorded an operating loss of €165.1m (£119m) in 2014 compared to €91.2m (£65.7m) in 2013, while its net loss nearly trebled from €55.9m (£40.3m) in 2013 to €162.3m (£117m) in 2014."

It's 90 dollars for 30 squares. That's 133.33 cals/dollar, or 15 dollars / 2000 calories.

I would say a 630 calorie donut is pretty huge. After looking at the calorie info for a bunch of Tim Hortons donuts, the average seems to be around 250 calories.

Video poker has been solved.

Depends on which downscaling algorithm(s) they use

"The fact is that 90% of American's know what HTML is."

Just because they don't think it's an STD doesn't mean they know what it is.

The SpriteKit physics engine uses Box2D internally. Here is a dump of the SpriteKit framework:

Ah good too know. I guess that is new in iOS 7.

People with non-retina iPads can and will download your app.

Invest some of that million in bitcoin and you will have a non-trivial chance of being rich in 5-10 years.

" The best thing has been 2560x1600 that are still priced higher [1] than the price I paid for this one 8 years ago (~$800)."

The Crossover 30Q5 with 2560x1600 is <700 USD.

"especially when consumed late in the day"

That's a myth.

Not true. The Specialized Turbo goes up to 45 km/h with some assist.

" e-bikes must have a motor of less than 750 watts and an unassisted speed of less than 20 mph. Because the Turbo is an electric pedal-assist bike, meaning you have to pedal to get any kick from the motor, the speed limit doesn’t apply. In fact, the only reason it tops out at 28 mph is to comply with European laws, which restrict e-bikes to 45 kph. Specialized installed a governor on the Turbo that automatically turns the motor off when it reaches this speed."

It really grinds my gears when companies call bars with more sugar than protein as "protein bars".

He said "less newsworthy", not "not newsworthy".

"The “top” list simply rewards developers for getting as many people as possible to buy or download the app once. There’s no reason to optimize for longer-term satisfaction or higher engagement after purchase."

This is clearly false. If you have a free app, you obviously want that so you get money from in-app purchases / ad revenue.

Had ACL repaired privately as a Canadian and the total cost was around $7000

I hit three 7s and scored 21 points. Then four and got 28 points.

I did the math before to see how cheap I could live on a slight deficit and I got $2.00 CAD for 2000 calories (about 75 grams of fat, 200 carbs and 125 grams of protein)

Quora is a horrible site.

He could mean base 2. So 60,000*2^2=240,000

What if the rng generates a file with massive redundancy by chance. Doesn't make it any less "truly random."

Benching without spotting is easy if you aren't going to one rep maxes. If you are doing sets of 5, then don't do rep N if rep N-1 was too hard that you think you will fail the rep. Also, if you stop before the 5th rep, you should be doing sets at a lighter weight.

Parse.com might be an option. It will scale as needed automagically. It uses AWS to store the data.
