Taking on extra responsibility is all well and good until someone figures out that they can just get you to do more work for the same amount of money. At that point your only option is to move on, because if you stop performing at the &quot

One reason could be previous season or movie recaps. I know I'll go look for recaps to refresh myself on a story before launching into a new season.

It's not like anyone is forcing the students to participate. If someone of voting age wants to engage someone on policy positions, then they accept the consequences. Likewise, if someone wants to engage with voters, then a college camp

Ironically, I love using em dashes in my writing, but if I ever have to AI generate an email or summary or something, I will remove it for this exact reason.

I suspect that they are trying to recreate the experience of bumping into someone they know. Since the destruction of third-spaces, it is increasingly unlikely that you'll serendipitously interact with someone in an unplanned, but welc

The short version is that its in limited supply, it has luxury value (think jewelry or artisan crafting), and its doesn't corrode. So it's a supply and demand issue. There is basically always the same amount, kings want it, and it

Many years ago when I had an iphone I would set text vibrations to be the morse code of the first letter of someone's name so I knew who messaged me without looking. That's the only feature I still miss to this day with my android

In fairness, Windows 10 was marketed as the Last OS. I could see how someone would take this into account when choosing an OS. Its not their fault the rug was pulled out from under them.

Given that most of us can only afford to go to the dentist twice a year when our insurance covers it, what advice do you have for sussing out bad apples?

The premise of this program is reasonable. If a cadaver is unclaimed, then letting the next generation of doctors use it for training is not a bad solution to the problem. I'll grant its sad when loved ones find out too late to do anyt

Absolutely not. Compensation should reflect value received. This idea effectively forces a business to subsidize their employees, because you damn sure can't pass all that to the customer (because then we are just back where we started

Same. I was so sad when my old chromecast broke. And casting was basically the only thing that kept me on the chrome browser all these years. So perhaps its a good thing and this change will finally allow me to move to a more private browse

Does anyone know of a way to implement this at the network level? Maybe with a pihole or something?

Sure, but at least then your options are limited to existence or destruction, and you still have to have physical proximity to experience either. Digital represents a third form-factor, "malformed", and physical proximity is no lo

Super cool. I've been thinking about building something like this for years. I have a background in debate, and the inability to "flow" complex discussion in any sort of digital format has always bothered me. I'm excited

If you are offering free samples of your product, you shouldn't get mad at the people who don't need your product for more.

If there wasn't a costcap, no team could afford to make changes to the car to catch Redbull because Redbull would just outspend them. The only exceptions is possibly Mercedes.

I think the insinuation is that such information has no right to be private. Or such individuals have no right to privacy. The obvious issue being that to enforce this, no one gets a right to privacy. But all in the same of "peace and

Those are not mutually exclusive. Anyone can do it, and those who are better at prompting will get better results. Similarly, if I grunt at you, you might be able to figure out what I want because you and I are both relatively intelligent,
