On the other hand, I don't think anyone accused slack, with multi-megabyte webpages and even worse mobile app, of being a great experience. I think I used it once, and said no more.

some of don't really care who reads it, just that it is available. This gaming of everything is not necessarily a good thing. Is your article about programming or something, or is it about attention whoring?

but everything included, so that is basically 35k, tax free, or in a lower tax bracket since so much of the compensation is non monetary, purely disposable. edit, this says the median is 45k https://work.chron.com/much-catho

well the pressure aspect wouldn't require constant energy input. And I assume it is a lot more economical to use a consumer refrigerator than liquid nitrogen. But yah, you can bathe a much more complicated "circuit" in liqui

"Some sort of measurable practice", not anything remotely like a "soul", in fact invoking "you have no soul" usually means you lost the argument and are now desperate enough to say anything.

that study is a case study in selection bias by someone with a political agenda. You can't just look at actions by one somewhat arbitrary group against another, and not look at the actions of anyone else, unless you are expressly tryin

"Given what we know about social media and violence" you mean how social media is akin to a pressure relief valve, and how actual violence has gone down since it took off? And how this is probably about clicks and stirring the po
