It made me wonder, is supporting an author on Patreon ever a "DONATION"? If you derive satisfaction from a product, expect someone to produce it, and support that process, then it is a purchase regardless of what someone calls it.

I used to work in life sciences data analysis. Many times, I met people who genuinely believed they were super close and about to achieve a "huge" breakthrough. In each case, the scientists themselves, in their minds, were absolut

The issue that people have here is whether being a pain-killer merely masks the disease temporarily and leads to people ignoring the problem and hence aggravating the disease even more. Pain is usually a signal of a real and valid problem.

Your reply appears to indicate that you do not properly understand the new proposed feature. It is most certainly not just about dropping two parentheses. > Tag strings extract more than just a callable from the Interpolation. They also

Excellent idea, I don't get the criticism, If a syntax such as f"{variable}" is already a feature - and turned out to be a popular one - why shouldn't we be able to add our own custom "f"s? Because that is what

right, but this has nothing to do with health care, nor nurses or patients It is simply that bureaucrats have passed regulations where they do not understand the repercussions Every domain that is bogged down by bureaucracy will have ineffi

what I am calling out is that it feels like you are generalizing after learning about one specific and possibly isolated incident. it is very uncommon to have children go hungry in America, because food is plentiful, and numerous charitable

I admit I don't understand the mechanism - but this just sounds like they created an a flawed system that has nothing to do with nurses or patient or even health care. An improperly devised system that can be easily circumvented. It is

How much should it cost? Maybe that cost is low. I don't know, but putting out a number with no context seems to be for shock value only, not realistics. How much would it be if they met doctors? A new high school in the US costs 100 m

As far as I know schools provide free lunches to children that need it. In my area it is a school policy that a kid would not be denied food even if they had no money in their account - and every place I lived had organizations that would e

Opinions about food are full of excessive generalizations that are of little help. There is no logical reason to expect that seeds, in general—carrying the energy for new life, containing the most valuable and precious resources—would cons

Being active for example correlates with massive health benefits. Is an active lifestyle easy? Well, it is easy if you like being active, and extremely hard if you hate it.

Sorry to say, but I think you have put the wagon ahead of the horse. Being able to predict an outcome has nothing to do with the process of deriving the outcome, and it has nothing to do with bias. There may be many signals that correlate w

Once you are an expert at any topic, you can figure many outcomes from very small amounts of information. That does not mean the outcome was biased or flawed etc. Is it difficult to believe that a judge would be able to predict at least so

As the joke goes. If I owe you 100 grand and I can't pay, I am in trouble. If I owe you 100 trillion and I can't pay, you are in trouble.

It is a mystery to me how Europe operates. From the outside, it feels like some "tacit trade" where poor Eastern European nations provide the labor, the rich western countries send "funds" back to them, and it all works

The channel contains 10-hour-long videos of natural sounds. Maybe the post is less about what is right or wrong in medicine and more about the author having gone into the wrong field, which is opposite to what they enjoy in life. Perhaps al

Weren't lots of realtors recently put out of work in the US, at least? When NAR settled the price collusion charge? Thus cartel or not, times do change.
