I don't think anyone would argue that would violate freedom of speech, however it would still be illegal as it would violate the civil rights act by discriminating based on religion. Theres more than one right involved in your hypothet

I know quite a few offensive security pros that are way better than I will ever be at breaking into systems and evading detections that can only barely program anything beyond simple python scripts. It’s a great goal to eventually learn eve

Found that to be the case with any butter really, when you cook with it or do anything that dilutes it, the flavor beyond "lipids" ends up lost quickly amongst the other flavors. We buy cheaper butter for stuff like frying eggs or

While I'd argue anyone looking to spend under $20k on a car would be better suited going used/pre-owned instead of new, theres really not a price premium on new electric vehicles anymore. The Chevy Bolt MSRP is $26,500[1] (not sur

I've been thinking about this same thing lately since I will soon fit those conditions as well and I think at least for me personally this year may be the best time to buy one. While I agree the technology will be better and cheaper 5

Interesting that you and I evaluated who EVs are good options for completely differently. I've considered getting one for many years but only felt doing so made sense now that I'm moving out of the city to the country in a few wee

I hate that I spent the time to check but this was posted a few months before Grayson and Quinn were together. Even if it weren't its really not much of a smoking gun.

This post is really confusing. The "Standard Calorie Model" is not a thing. Are you using the term as a shorthand? If so, other people aren't going to know what it means. Regardless, nothing related to the use of calories to

The problem is SMTM seems obsessed with finding some explanation for why the diet works other than it being an easy method to reduce calories and generally appears convinced theres a non-CICO explanation for obesity and weight loss/gai

Over a decade ago a dude proved you can lose weight eating mostly twinkies if the calorie math works. I don't think theres any food it wouldn't work with. https://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/11/08/t

The thing that fully convinced me over a decade ago that all effective methods for weight loss are just "calories in, calories out" underneath was the dude that lost 27lbs in 2 and a half months on a diet of mostly twinkies with o

What, there are still people that believe this? That Nathan Grayson never wrote reviews on any game by Zoe Quinn is easily verifiable, like you can just go look at the webpage. The claim has had zero veracity for years, that its false is wi

While I def got more from therapy, I concur regarding ACT being the methodology that worked best for me and that it’s wild how much it overlaps with mindfulness and Buddhist practices.

You might not have a good fit with your therapist. It took me a few tries but once I found someone with a similar mode of thinking I got a lot more out of the discussions because she said things (often the same things as the prior shrinks)

Almost 24 hours later so likely you won’t see this, but I’m interested what your setup is hardware (monitors) wise and workflow wise that works best on Windows? I’m pretty platform agnostic. I own and relatively regularly use Windows, Linux

Thinking about it after reading the responses, it makes sense a keypad is faster simply from reduced finger travel. Just for me personally, never so much faster having one would outweigh what I gain removing it. Also possible I never needed

Do you not know how to touch type without looking at the keyboard at all or have you just not learned where the numbers are? Shouldn't you take the time to learn to type correctly instead of relying on moving your entire hand just to t
