  Admittedly, that doesn't look great. I do try to apply Hank Green filters to this sort of thing before I accept it whole cloth, however. So it's not great that the first link I clicked on by the author was this: https://medium.com/@MoonMetropolis/first-public-statement-from-joshua-goldberg-8bb061aa56a0 While I did meet Steve a few times - he left my carcass on the floor after a predictable poker game at a music... - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• Surprised to see that the standard CO2 level on the space station is 4000 ppm

  Related reading "I’m living in a carbon bubble. Literally."[0] which has a lot of great basic charts and graphs on everyday data related to CO2.

• Excel What if Analysis Issue

  Even better: upload an example Excel file to a file-sharing website (box.net/files, dropbox.com, onedrive.live.com, etc), and post a download link that does not require that we log in. Source: 6 months ago

I can't even begin to tell you how many writers have lost days, weeks, or even entire novels worth of work because they failed to back up their work, then had their computer break or had some weird software snafu. Dropbox is my preferred cloud backup solution, because you can... Source: 11 months ago
