"Most" is a bit of a stretch. Depending upon the year it is anywhere from 45% to 68%, most years it is right on the 50% marker. Additionally the NRA gets lots of money from corporations and big ticket donors. This seems to typical

I've was at a company that had an absentee CEO. One who would swoop in every few months and make strong declarations about direction, product, and so on; but was otherwise never there. It was a nightmare. We suffered constantly from hi

If resources are there then yes I definitely agree. It makes a major difference in quality of life, particularly for myself and my partner who both struggle with ADHD.

If you look around for things about "emotional labor" or "unpaid labor". For example I found this from around 2014, it isn't strictly about dual income households, but there is data out there for that: > Around t

This isn't about the dishes. The dishes are just a symptom of the unequal divide of emotional labour in most relationships. Even in relationships where both parents work full time more often than not the majority of the mental and phys

Yes unified memory already exists it isn't some newfangled thing. That said Apple is the only modern consumer brand doing it for a Laptop/Desktop. It definitely has some downsides, but it also does have some upsides.

I have pretty extreme ADHD. It is very very easy for something like a ticket to just fall out of my mind and therefore not get followed up on. Polite (very important) and infrequent requests for updates aren't bad, they can be extremel

We also use contracting services for things like janitors here. The startup I used to work for didn't need dedicated cleaners, we needed maybe 1/4th of a dedicated cleaner. So we had an external service that paid to have someone c

But Monzo isn’t a thing that 99% of the country has access too. Tikkie and iDeal are. Every mainstream bank here supports them and are part of the organisations that manage them. Well technically tikkie is ABN AMRO but it is built on the s
