Woman who wrote children's book about grief found guilty of murdering husband
some more quotes from the new york times
Forensic analysis of burner phones used by Ms. Richins showed searches for “women utah prison,” “can cops.uncover deleted.messages iphone,” “if someone is poisned what does it go down on the death certificate as,” “how long does life insurance companies takento.pay” and “what is a lethal.does.of.fetanyl.”
Prosecutors said that weeks earlier, on Valentine’s Day, she had tried to kill him by poisoning his favorite type of sandwich with fentanyl. Mr. Richins became extremely ill that day but recovered after using Benadryl and an EpiPen, charging documents said. Afterward, Ms. Richins asked the housekeeper, Carmen Lauber, for “something stronger,” Ms. Lauber told prosecutors, specifically asking for “the Michael Jackson stuff.”
Ms. Richins’s lawyers argued that Mr. Richins was addicted to painkillers and had asked his wife to buy painkillers for him; they suggested he may have overdosed. They argued Mr. Richins could have purchased the drugs himself, and contended during the trial that there was no evidence that showed how Mr. Richins had ingested the fentanyl. Detective Jeff O’Driscoll, the lead investigator on the case, testified that law enforcement authorities did not find evidence of fentanyl on any glasses or straws in the home.

The headline means that Congress will deny the White House's -22% request by conceding a -4%. All while the Trump administration follows the letter to skirt the spirit by changing funding from $472,000–a-year to $830,000–for-four-years, and that’s unadjusted for inflation—funding less science while spending more money.
At least Congress is trying to exercize its power of the purse, instead of just some Democrats and Independents.

Personally I dislike pacman as it uses capital-letter flags as subcommands while I'm used to actual subcommands

I'd say it's not an ESL problem so much as a "common swift not endangered nor news here" problem.

Data Finds Republicans are Obsessed with Searching for Transgender Porn
the article does have this headline but doesn’t actually back it up (convincingly) at all. it seems to thinks googling ‘“shemale”, “tranny”, “femboy”, and “ladyboy”’’ counts as searching for trans porn. kelsey libert doesn’t seem to have any relevant qualifications either

Could someone link us to where he actually says this? Sorry for killing the mood but I’m skeptical of extraordinary claims that don’t have extraordinary coverage. Or are OC Media and Ostorozhno Novosti usually reliable?

There is nominator criteria; The Nation is claiming they have eligibility through relations with past Nobel (Peace) laureates, who are eligible.

You can ask any question to the people of year 3000, but can only receive information in the form of a single bit. What's your question?
Reply in thread
that's more than one bit, though, which is part of the question's constraints. In practice that means [No response] would be the same as indicating 0 or even 1 and they cannot convey additional information by controlling for time of receipt, likely because they can't control time of receipt

the point is that a lot of these examples of similar severity that happen to women would get rallying and protests from time to time, yet the MRA movement doesn't say a word when these examples of patriarchy hurt men
school bullying and blue-collar work forcing definitely discriminate against men. there's similar issues that also affect women, one prominent one being (generally white-collar) workplace discrimination

Their back end now has to have the compute power to encode and serve up gigabits of streaming video for anything more than ~50 concurrent users
it's actually the customers' bandwidth, not theirs. everything is self-hosted by the customer.
not sure if that's worse
