I loaded the page and scrolled for half a second, and noticed it was slow. Developer Tools shows 109 requests, 23,023kb, 46.13 seconds.
Perhaps I could offer your friends some unsolicited advice that in order for their website to scale, they should focus on reducing the number of HTTP requests and increase image compression, as a start. =)
I'm impressed by your collection [1]. Since this is a entrepreneur forum, would you mind describing your solution's process - from design to sourcing? Thanks
I worked in a university research lab and had more than one PhD student/RA inform me that MatLab destroyed their actual programming skills in other languages.
While you were likely pointing out that the problem "would not otherwise exist", I'd like to propose that the problem might "not actually exist".
I was flying a few weeks ago and the pre-check line was backed up with 30+ people, while the normal security line was empty and I passed right through in seconds. I haven't been to Dulles in years (described in the article), so I'm not sure if it is worse there.
This isn't true. Midwifery is a serious discipline and you must be licensed in the US. Also, they even have Doctors of Nurse Practice (DNP) of Midwifery at the respected Baylor [1] and other schools. I would recommend watching "The Business of Being Born" (it is on Netflix) - it is very enlightening about the safety and discipline of midwifery, and why hospital births are unnatural and in some ways incredibly unsafe.
The intelligence community extols the virtues of "need to know" and obsesses over OPSEC [1]. They protect both methods and sources, above all else. A sitting President will only ask for methods and sources if he absolutely needs to know (in order to make an imperative and difficult decision). Otherwise, the data flows in via daily briefings [2], with sources and methods likely removed. This allows for plausible deniability. // Side note: Just imagine how long it would take to explain every HUMINT, SIGINT, OSINT, etc operation to a lawmaker.
The intel committee knows better than to ask for methods and sources, as it does not want to accidentally leak a national security secret. Their data is often received via NIEs [3]. They might ask for a few methods to cover their butt, but you know for sure that the DCI is never going to give up REAL source - it could cost lives.
