I am the exact same way and yeah took me till my early 30's and a couple bad calls before I started fully trusting it (in my 40s now). It's weird how it doesn't translate to video chat though, but you are right that it totall

I stupidly thought this was going to be an article about how it's much more likely that schmoozer types are able to fund their projects, leaving others in the dust, but instead it mostly just rails against regulation. At the time, my s

I'd say over 50% of the time at my pharmacy, this would involve waiting in line for 20 min and talking to a harried, overworked pharmacist who may or may not be up on the latest research... not a great UX.

It's a complex issue. On one hand, what differentiates universities from trade schools is teaching students how to learn/do their own research vs. acquire specific skills/knowledge: demonstrating some kind of self-motivated a

I graduated high school in 1998, was great at math, and most teachers liked me, some loved me. MAYBE if you're talking about going to high school in the 70's or 80's, or in a more small football-centered town or something, th

Different carbs affect people differently, but for me rice was a big no no, whole wheat was OK, and corn was great (whew!). So, Thai was pretty bad, Chinese not much better but you can find less sugary dishes. Indian was actually pretty goo

A couple other comments here have said the same thing, and I strongly believe this is the actual reason. Queer people flock to cities to improve their dating pool and social acceptance. College is a legitimate way to move to a city (and mee

I mean it doesn't have to be all-or-nothing. If we decoupled health insurance from FTE, then maybe there would be more part-time options that would allow for some flexibility. Hire a biweekly housekeeper and a nanny for 4 hours a day 4

Some of them were in biotech, and yeah it still doesn't pay nearly at the same level as engineering jobs. Also I was on the molecular/biochem side so pretty techy.
