Even English has words that are pronounced differently depending on context.

For example "I read to my son" could be pronounced two different ways depending on tense. "I read", vs. "I red".

There are other examples too, off the top of my head "I polish my shoes", vs. "I have a polish friend.". Or "the bow of a boat", vs. "at the end of the play the actors take a bow".

There are often comments of the form " I've been thinking of doing x, is there any interest?"

The answer is always yes! Partly because no matter how niche a topic is there are people interested in it, and partly because creating such things will help your own understanding.

Go for it!

I have a few applications which are installed from source, and as you say a couple of things installed beneath /opt. Currently that is: Firefox, golang, Arduino studio and Calibre.
Re:Mistakes to Avoid When Buying a MicroSD Card (2018) on Monday August 19, 2019 @11:33AM (#20738651)
Back a few years I bought a large CF-card for a Canon 5D camera, which was just not recognized.
I spent years working in nightclubs, and visiting them too, and this was never the case.

Hover-pee is a really common thing for women, and the results are what you imagine bthey would be.

To me it seems insane that a doctor should care about the price of necessary medicines they're prescribing.

If the insurance is available, and so good, then they should handle the payment stuff. A doctor should be learning about treatment, research and patients, not which company has the cheapest drugs this month.

Sure, but there are obvious cases which turn these averages into really different personal-stories.

One case is the obvious cost of having a child in America, even with insurance some people pay thousands of dollars.

You could use a dedicated dns provider, such as AWS

I think that's an America-centric view. In a lot of places in Europe it wouldn't matter what neighborhood you lived in - the schools available would be equally good.
If he is Satoshi he could sign a message with the private half of a key known to have been used in the past by him.

Details of public/private keys, hashes, etc are important, but at the core the idea is simple.

Given the number of people who commented here with their own stories I wonder if it actually is rare.

I imagine you only find out if you're undergoing x-rays, operations and similar.

If there are no obvious side-effects there could be a lot more flipped-people out there.

I always posted such stuff to a carbon/whisper server, and viewed it with kibana.

Like all the people flooding to live in Baltimore, now property is so cheap?

Sadly the idea that price alone affects desirability is a little niave.

There are several "celebrity" bloggers who keep this trend alive. I find it annoying too, but better that than some of the other approaches which involve constant! Exclamation!! Marks everywhere!!!

A few zine-style approaches manage to capture the worst of both worlds, but I guess if others find it endearing and cute then good luck to them!!

Yes I think that is a fair comparison. Fabric allows a similar set of primitives.
Adduser will fail a second time, and show "user already exists" or similar. We hide that via the redirect
