So I need to use more profanity at work, then ask for a raise? (But I concede that effort and productivity are not the same thing.)

If you are curious to compare with a foreign single payer system, England's NHS tariff is published at https://www.england.nhs.uk/pay-syst/national-tariff/national...

Assuming you are not being disingenuous: there is a trade off with a lot of uncertainty - other things are also implicated in stomach cancer, and at the same time untreated dental disease causes other health problems too. But I prefer to re

This study looked solely at impact on dental health. Other studies tell us it is associated with stomach cancer and infertility.

I've had longer delays in the UK. My car was damaged by another driver. I sent my dash cam recording to my insurer and then both insurers dithered for months until I threatened to get the government ombudsman involved.

There have been a few products like this announced recently and they all have intro level examples on the home page. Can yours deal with things like entity-attribute-value model tables?

For the listener I don't think much would change. There is already more music released than any one person has time to listen to. Edit: or maybe I would be disappointed if I liked an 'artist' but it was an ai so live events w

You have no information on how I approached using chat gpt, what prompts I used, how close its replies came to being correct/useful or not, but you decided to regale us with an irrelevant car metaphor anyway.

I tried chat gpt for the first time today. I asked it to write me a script to fetch some data from an API. It didn't succeed, and this kind of common task from a well-documented API should (I thought) be a slam dunk.

Thanks for mentioning this. There are a lot of people who are homeless solely for economic reasons and are mostly unnoticed.

Involuntary admission is not automatically inhumane, but you do need to be admitting people to well-run hospitals and have a system in place to protect everyone from malicious admission. Both of those things cost money.

I once hypothetically saved a few dozen colleagues from dying in a fire. All of these people had at least a degree and many were educated to PhD. The fire alarm sounded and at the bottom of a stairwell the exit door would not release until

Other income comes from inheritance, investments, gifts. None of those should be assumed to be incentives to get the recepient to work.

A lot of people have to work two jobs just to afford food and shelter. Granted there are also people trying to live a Champaign lifestyle on a lemonade budget, but how do you address the first group?

Only time I'm more miserable is if I'm told to work on something I know is going to get canned.

Who report over 10,000 downloads last week. I used this years ago but can't see much use for it now.

That's fair enough if your job is in front end or whatever and you just need to use a table or view that someone else built for you. I comment I read somewhere was that SQL goes from basic to advanced with nothing in between. It's

Can you address the 'unprovoked' part? Reading comprehension here involves reading a whole paragraph.

Lots of societies around the world have a tradition of 'blood money' in the sense of financial compensation for killing or other serious harm. It's not surprising to find that kind of thinking in America since it is a society

But what do you call a query? I've seen joins described as 'advanced' in some places.

Agree. I'd go to Blockbuster for block busters and the library or an independent video rental store for art house and foreign language films.

We can all debate the quality of Netflix or Prime but the cost is about the same as renting a VHS tape from Blockbuster once a week 20 years ago. Not even adjusting for inflation.

Need to do this study across a couple of economic cycles because the last few years have been atypical for both stress and hiring patterns. It reads like Denmark has linked employment and health data so I guess they can do so for as far bac

Piracy may have been displaced into Netflix password sharing, or diminished and replaced by bona fide streaming subscriptions (why pirate if you can get what you want at a low price). But falling real incomes and Netflix tightening up on &#
