Gas all the way. They make great backup heaters for those winters where you want to turn up the heat but you can't touch the thermostat.
When I was in Melbourne and I didn't want to put the heat wasn't working during Winter while my room mate wanted to keep the door open I would just end up cooking as many oven based meals as possible to keep myself warm plus cooking awesome food was fun.
I thought of something funny: when I took the ACT, I got a perfect score on the reading comprehension/english parts (not the composition, I wrote a half-page run on sentence and went to sleep) despite failing 11th and 12th grade English classes. Why are schools so determined to bore and alienate students from reading and writing by focusing on mechanistic bullshit?
Being able to quickly and eloquently write within those sorts of constraints is an important step toward great writing.
My question is: Did someone do an economic study and concluded $15/hr was a livable wage, or did they just pull that number out of thin air because it sounds nice and round?

No, they tend to pick a number likely to get the bill passed. A livable wage would be higher.
And how do we define "livable?" Thinking about what might go into expenses, almost all of them are variable. Housing, car payment, insurance, food, gasoline, utilities, entertainment, all can be adjusted every which way. Do we want to say the wage is enough to cover all that, or also have some leftover for savings?
When I was asked how a track pad worked my stupid answer was so good it surprised me.
"Your finger acts as a mind control conduit. You are actually moving the cursor purely with the power of your mind but it happens to be the same part of your mind that moves your finger."
Apparently duck-duck-goose is duck-duck-greyduck in Minnesota.
It's funny because this comes up a lot when talking with my friends from Minnesota. They think it's hilarious that they are the only state who does that.
Wow, I never even thought about this before. It isn't more difficult for me to look in either direction, but I definitely have a different feeling in my eye muscles each way.

Saw this on Polygon. "Blazingly Fast 200cc mode."
Are these babies serious? The only thing that is blazing is a burning trash heap. Bring back F-ZERO.
Long live the internet

Conditioning from years of reading left to right perhaps?
