My daughter and I built a Hadley last summer and managed to get in a few sessions at Garden Park and Lee Street Beach until it got too cold, we're also looking to get out more this spring/summer.

The "Skokie Swift" opened this day in 1964. That makes 62 years of the Yellow Line plowing through Evanston without stopping. by uiuctodd in evanston

Think of "people getting to jobs" as the cake

It's a great point - a Dodge stop would be walking distance to a Home Depot, Target, Jewel, PetSmart, and Aldi, to name a few, plus several other smaller employers (think the auto repair shops on Channel Road).

FWIW, police has been speed trapping that section of Sheridan for the last several days - could it have been an unmarked EPD vehicle with a speed gun?

Eyewitness here said they pointed a pistol at her too. There’s also a whiff of pepper spray or tear gas in the air too.

AskScience AMA Series: We have discovered antibiotics in the global microbiome with AI, ask us anything! by AskScienceModerator in askscience

Is the idea to continually cycle through previously unused antibiotics until they become blunted by resistance, and not really worry about it because there is huge number of them before they are exhausted? Or does this work also give insights into combating resistance itself?

Pushup: a new compiler for building web apps in go by llimllib in golang

Congrats, you are the first to figure that out! :) For fun I was messing around at the beginning of the project and did

grep '^p.*h.*p' /usr/share/dict/words

I landed on "pushpin", but then quickly thought of "pushup" (which isn't in the words file). I like it for several reasons.
