Seeing your comment I wondered how someone publishing in Nature could have possibly left out the use of statistics for prediction. That would be a wild oversight that only someone with little knowledge of the topic would make, and surely not something that the editors of Nature would miss. Upon clicking the link I see that they mentioned it in the very first sentence and apparently ignore it if someone happens to call the prediction model a machine learning model. Using statistical models for prediction has been used since the start of the field, and renaming things that have been used for decades as "machine learning" doesn't suddenly make them not statistics.

Artificial neural networks are statistical models, with numerous statistical approaches associated with their use, development and interpretation.

"If parameters aren’t neatly interpretable then it’s bad statistics."

Haha, keep going guys. You obviously know a lot about statistics.

"such as neatly interpretable parameters"

Hahaha, hahahahahaha.

Hahahahaha.

Hahaha. People are great.

I used a Logitech Master MX for years, and when that finally broke I got a Master MX 3S. I don't know anything about gaming mice, but I know this isn't one. I only use it for office work, and for that I think it's good. It's comfortable for me. It charges by USB C, and the battery lasts a long time - I'd guess at least a month of daily use. It can use a USB radio transmitter or Bluetooth. I avoid Bluetooth whenever possible, so I don't use that mode, but I assume it works as well as an other Bluetooth device. I like the continuous scrolling mode on the wheel, but you can change it to click.

I have an attic that gets direct sun until the afternoon. It gets quite hot. I had easy access to the rafters so I used radiant barrier, and the difference is very big. As you're putting it up you can tell that it's blocking the heat standing in an a covered vs uncovered area. In subsequent days when it was all up it was obviously cooler. It's still hot but not unbearable.

Radiant barrier is more expensive and fiberglass probably would have worked just as well in this situation, but I didn't know enough about air flow in that space to tell whether fiberglass would impede anything,so I used radiant barrier and left a gap at the bottoms and tops. It is very easy to install. Fiberglass wouldn't be too hard either, but the barrier is daed simple and there's less volume to move around.

In general, my experience say it's going to help, and whether you do fiberglass or radiant barrier is up to you.

You have no idea what your talking about. It is not and never was a compound word of wife and man. The word wif meant the same thing as the modern day word woman. The word wifman was a compound word that would be translated into modern English as woman-person, with the exact same meaning as woman is used to today. It had nothing at all to do with being married. I've read the comment chain, where you say, repeatedly, that the word woman originates with a meaning related to marriage. It doesn't, at all. You do not understand what you are reading.

"Wif = wife / man = mankind. Literally the wif of men"

It meant no such thing, ever. Wif didnt mean wife when this word was created. It meant what we now mean by the word woman. And the word wifman in today's language would mean woman-person. It's right there in the article you linked that you are unable to understand, or quite possibley, chose to misunderstand.

Yeah buddy. That doesn't say it means or has ever meant wifeman. Woman has always, from its first use up to now, meant a female human. So you read things and then interpret them as having whatever meaning you like?

I like that you call some nonsense about woman meaning wifeman an "exchange of ideas". It's utter nonsense, so in what sense is it an idea - that you thought of it? Or have you been reading "A history of English words for people with preconceived notions"?

There's no shortage of well meaning dog owners who don't know any better.

Which gap do you mean?

I think @grue is referring to the gap between the floor and base of the cabinets. In the US, it is nearly ubiquitous for cabinets to sit on a box, and the front edge of that has a toe kick, like shown here: https://www.thehandymansdaughter.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/toe-kick-with-mitered-outside-corner-960x960.jpg.

For the most part, having legs or a box isn't very different. I know someone who has cabinets with legs, and they sell toe kicks that attach to the front, so it looks just like a cabinet on a box (like this https://www.canarycabinets.com/dsc03526/). However, as @grue pointed out, it's not clear to me how you'd secure an island cabinet with legs. For boxes, you attach a board to the floor, then attach the box to the board (see Figure 13 here https://www.familyhandyman.com/list/how-to-install-cabinets/). What keeps the island you have secured? If it's only attached at the wall, I would think it could flex if force is applied to the end far from the wall. Does something hold it to the floor?
