I love the taste of coffee, had cafe au lait as a kid, then brewed, then french press and stove top moka pot. The last two methods slowly made me sick. It turns out when not using a paper filter, things like cafestol makes it through the process in higher concentration and after a few days of consumption I would get intense pain near my liver/gallbladder, for about 30 minutes I would be on the bathroom floor waiting for it to pass, often only vomiting helped. I stopped coffee and those symptoms stopped. Later tried poured over coffee with a paper filter , after a few days those symptoms would come back. Decaf doesn't help. Now in my late 30s I can't have coffee, tea or chocolate. The caffeine/theine/theobromine was not good either, anxiety, headaches, muscle twitching, heart palpitations, irritability, leading to, sorry for the detail, dehydration and hard stools. It's been a year since I've stopped, and I feel serene, easier to stay hydrated, better sleep and great bowel movement. If someone can invent the impossible burger equivalent of coffee (no caffeine, cafestol, roasting carcinogens ...) I'll be first in line, not sure how long that line would be though.
Maybe it's just me but when I glance at the cover it looks like the book is about Windows 7 Internals only. I'm wondering how many others would think the same when seeing it on a bookshelf. It looks like the same layout was used for the 6th edition, I want to suggest the use of a different layout for the next editions.
It does look as if the title is Windows 7 Internals. Note that it was the preceding edition that covered Windows 7 (Windows NT 6.1). This edition has been updated to cover Windows NT 10.
Not the way I read it - it is "Windows Internals - 7 (seventh edition)". It is not even ambiguous IMHO because "7" is not vertically aligned with "Windows". But at a glance, yeah, someone could misunderstand it...
This problem gets a lot worse when all you see is a thumbnail of the cover. At least the image on his blog post is large enough that you can figure out what it means if you take a second. But in search results, the text "Seventh Edition" is nearly invisible.
I've only glanced at the pictures in the article and seeing the zodiacal signs and months of the year reminded me of ideas I've read on solarmythology.com. That the story of Jesus can be linked to the path that the sun takes during a year, and that 2000 years ago, due to the precession of the equinox the sun slowly went from Aries to Pisces at spring equinox in the northern hemisphere and that it must have been a pretty big change for people who were keeping track of that for agricultural purpose. Miracles like walking on water could be the sun crossing the milky way. Being dead and resurrected could be the sun lowering in winter solstice and coming back up 3 days after. I thought that was interresting.
Looks cranky. Some Christian motifs may have been ripoffs from other religions, but it's the first time I'm hearing this about Jesus and crucifixion.
There are non-Christian sources mentioning the crucifixion of Jesus within few decades afterwards.
If they think that crucifixion was a common motif in religions of the time they would better provide some examples. Their /cr.htm just repeatedly states it as fact.
No, this "Orpheus crucifixion" stone doesn't count because it was probably created by Roman Christians who were known to combine Jesus with Orpheus in their art due to the obvious parallels. And the original Greek myth of Orpheus says nothing about crucifixion.
I made friends in my thirties by joining a local tabletop role-playing group. We meet a couple times a month, aside from gaming we also have cheerful conversations while having dinner to break the session that last about 8 hours. We take turn hosting, bringing and preparing the food. Some of them have kids but make arrangements. A few people have moved away and new ones joined over the years. Some came back to play with us over skype. They are now among my best friends.
I agree, I'm speculating that by looking at a star wobble or it's brightness decrease that method of detection would bring up all these systems with close orbiting planets that would be bigger than "normal".
Postgres WITH SELECT ... is very handy but in that case I would create three views instead. It seems that wine_ratings tags and detail could be used in other queries and having the views created would prevent duplicating their code.
