This is a fairly common procedure for children with different length legs to fix a limping gait. My sister had it done back in 5th grade. She has additional health issues, but once the lengthening process was over, I don't recall her complaining about pain from it.
Interestingly, it’s a much less risky procedure on Children, because all the soft tissue around the bones will adjust much more easily than in adults (who routinely lose movement range with this procedure). However, it’s rarely done on non-adults except for medical reasons.
Not surprised they're mistreating the creators based on the way they treat customers. The way they delete any unused credits upon canceling a subscription is egregious.
I do a lot of Mac/iOS UI development and use ImageMagick to make before and after GIFs from screenshots. It's incredibly useful. This is my one-line makegif bash script that I use by dragging images from the desktop to Terminal after the command:
I'm excited to be the first comment to recommend The Broom of the System. I picked it off the library shelf because I knew of David Foster Wallace, but didn't think I had the stamina to go for Infinite Jest at the time. It's much, much shorter than Infinite Jest, and is a single story rather than a collection of essays (don't get me wrong, Consider the Lobster is also great). The humor is absurd, different than anything I'd read before, and it completely clicked with me, paving the way to the rest of his work. You should start here.
The Broom of the System was the first DFW I read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The ending was a little lackluster, actually the overall story was a little lackluster; But the humor and characters make up for that. I smile every time I think about The Great Ohio Desert.
This reminds me of the time my former company set a policy on everyone's computers locking the home page to the (largely useless and slow-to-load) intranet site. I then wrote a Safari extension [1] out of spite that posted to the site every time I opened a new tab. (If they want engagement, I'll give it to them!)
I don't feel like the AirPods are that secure when I run with them, so I use some medical tape [1] to secure them to my ears. This is kind of weird, but I've done it since March and really like not worrying about them falling out. I cut off a small 5mm strip of tape, make a loop, and stick it right below the black sensors on each AirPod. They stay firmly attached even when my ears are sweaty and I'm shaking my head.
