I mean she's a journalist, but not all journalist sign up for in-the-trenches investigations. I doubt anyone here would expect Marques Brownlee to write about a terrorist attack and be disappointed he didn't try to find his way past police barriers.

I disagree. I found the comment on how Häute Couture stores like YSK were closed yet people were lining up at Macy's to buy underwear a very telling emotional response to 9/11.

She doesn't write about the fashion of the victims at all. Rather she talks about about the trauma. She talks about how the delays for fashions show. Hints at controversy with some designers dropping out and hosting their own releases.

She's writing this article on September 20 so it's not like she can talk about long term effects either.

Edit: Reread your comment and I realized I misunderstood. I think we're in agreement that there wasn't any immediate effects to the fashion industry that she could write about. Although... Now I'm curious what the long term impacts actually were

I actually think it's unfortunate that she didn't focus more on fashion.

There are so, so many accounts of 9/11 that focus on the facts and the immediate tragedy. But I'm willing to bet that 9/11 impacted industries and people significantly even if they weren't directly involved.

I have little to no interest in fashion, but I'd find an article on the impact of 9/11 on the fashion capital of North America a much more interesting read than another collection of facts.

I'm no etymology professor, but if I had to guess it's related to the phrase tête-à-tête (literally head to head) in French. Kinda makes sense to me that it went from tête-à-tête -> head to head -> face to face -> one on one. Why it's written as "1:1", I haven't the faintest.

My thought was that the metal part of the chute is now holding on to more heat. So when the paper touches the metal is kinda burn-attaches itself to the chute. But your idea sounds more plausible!

Edit: I do appreciate the dude's commitment to burning our messages though!

As a software engineer with an electrical engineering degree , I think there are other factors that make software engineering "less" engineering-y.

One of the biggest things that comes to mind for me is that in software engineering a junior engineer can legally build, deploy, and launch a critical project.

In other engineerings, projects require sign-off from a licensed (P.Eng in Canada) engineer. And the engineer that signs off on that project is the one held liable for its success or failure.

Personally, I've loved software engineering for the above as it's let me grow my career much more easily, but I do think of it as a stark difference in engineering and "software engineering".

The OnePlus 7 Pro (their new flagship phone) has a hidden selfie camera that extends out when in selfie mode.

I'm like the author of the article and largely I don't need a selfie camera. It's useful to have in the rare cases where I need to video chat or need a digital mirror real quick.

I'm actually very disappointed that the newer OnePlus 7T went back to having a camera notch but I suppose that means that enough of their customers didn't like the feature.

In the case of switching the eggs, is it possible that the host mother would be more likely to reject it? Because in that case, I feel it's a fairly clear case in which you have directly affected one's ability to have a family by doing this.

Does wearing noise-cancelling headphones actually protect your ears? My understanding of noise-cancelling(at least the active kind) is that it would play the noise you would normally hear but in a mirrored fashion to dampen out the noise you'd hear.

I'm just wondering if that would protect your ears, do as much harm, or double it.

Amazon also has something called Brand Registry. Essentially, if you can prove you own a brand, you can prevent other sellers from selling the same item. That's how most larger brands protect their listings.
