I believe the worst part of this is society seems to be built around hiding anything other than positive emotions. People bottle up their feelings instead of expressing them because that is how we've been raised to behave. Like how man

I've had serious back injuries in the past and sitting at a desk would soon lead to poor posture and discomfort. The three best things I found for my back are. 1. Be mindful of how you're sitting and keep that natural curve in you

Yes it also quotes the phrase “Police have a duty to pursue all reasonable lines of enquiry,”. Who's judging what's reasonable here? What stops them making requests victims would rightfully consider unreasonable so the police can

If the victim has reason to belive their data would lead to a conviction the police wouldn't need to ask for it

So they're just assuming that the victims data will be their best lead? How about everyone just keeps a secondary dumb phone to hand over when they feel that the police request is unreasonable.

Surely in that case the man accused of the crime would have known they previously had messages from the accuser that were like to be critical to his defence? Did he not make anyone aware of them or did they just ignore it?

I wonder how police behaviour would be influenced by refusing to hand over the data? Will they assign less resources to your case because they think you're unhelpful by not turning over your data?

I wonder if the same mechanism applies to other things that we develop expectations of like relationships, careers, success? To me Paris syndrome seems much like the old adage of "never meet your heroes" neither will live up to yo

This "cult like" division of people and ideas is rife throughout reddit. Subreddits where reasonable objections get downvoted out of sight and preaching to the choir gets upvoted to the top reinforcing those beliefs. It ruins the

I get the exact same results as you. As long as I exercise I feel much better also because I do it in the morning its easier to make it part of a good routine however it doesn't seem to help with the anxiety that underpins the depressi

For some reason I find it totally demotivating. I don't feel compelled to get better at all. That makes me lazy because I just feel so anxious I have to do something else to distract myself and feel better. It also naturally makes me f

I really appreciate your reply. I like objective feedback and praise and I feel it helps on the surface but it doesn't really help with the underlying issue. It's like having a default mode set to "Negative" that can onl

The important distinction though is that a human can be held liable and punished for their erroneous (re)action but a machine cannot. Do you hold the owner, manufacturer, or insurer responsible to right the wrongs where an autonomous vehicl

I see. That makes sense if you upgrade/buy through your carrier. That isn't something I've ever done so my carrier has never been a limitation on the phones I can get. I guess Apple made the carriers realise that everyone wil

>Why would you expect a machine to be able to handle scenarios that humans cannot handle? That's exactly my point. Isn't that what Tesla is trying to do with FSD? It's trying to train a machine that will have to make ethic

I'd like to know how this factors into intermittent fasting as most people that do it just skip breakfast.

I take it they aren't autonomous driving videos? My concern isn't really with what the car sees but how it reacts to unfamiliar scenarios. There are many edge case scenarios that us humans can't react to because there just is

Their demonstrations of FSD like the short clip in the clip linked shows far too much easy roads like highways and "controlled" scenario to believe in their confidence of the tech. If they put up autonomous driving videos going th

Wait, are people applying for jobs after only doing an online nanodegree? I wouldn't employ those people either.

I think it's culturally and socially driven. As an outsider looking in I have discussed American capitalism with others and its more ruthless nature compared to the more moderate varieties of Europe. The US GDP (ppp) per capita is very

So what would be a better alternative to make your resume stand out to get a job that doesn't include doing a full degree?

How do you compare it to someone completely self taught with similar experience? At least with someone that completed a course you know the minimum extent of their knowledge and understanding.

How did carriers incentivise customisation for manufacturers? Did Apple essentially turn down "easy money" to maintain product integrity?

Is it fraud to just test their hypothesis with no intention of following through with it?

The best way I've seen businesses get around this issue is to just have an upper limit on the incentive like interest applies only to the first $x. Its often a nice bonus for people that were going to use them anyway but not enough for

by Starknaked 7y ago
It's not the user's responsibilty to ensure these incentives are sustainable. Look at what happened with the Hoover free flight program.
