   > Why do we really expect women to have a similar behaviour of men about work, when they have a socially aceptable and now economical venue to avoid it. Baby raising is quite important work. I would argue that raising the next generation

   Did you try throwing any Hemingway in there? :) I agree, Hemingway is a useful tool for editing, but it's not any kind of authority on what "good" or "bad" writing is. It's great for reducing your word count du

   Sure, you could probably train an AI to get 72% accuracy on that as well. It would be just as meaningless.

   So true, and now that it's subscription-only, I only use Adobe when I don't have an employer willing to pay for my subscription. When I'm in a job that's less graphics-oriented or just messing around with personal projec

   It would be awfully useful if both sandwich-eaters and sandwich-makers could learn the signs for, for example, spinach, chipotle, mustard, mayo, wrap, ciabatta, red onion, and so on. At my favorite sandwich counter, a full year into the pan

   > This would explain why autism seems to “cluster” in upper class homes, where the parents work nonstop. Are you under the impression that people lower income households work less? If anything, I'd expect the opposite to be true.

    My favorite use-case is a laptop that I can use to write/study/code in bright sunlight.

    I don't know, the smartest programmers I've ever met have also been the most helpful ones, willing and able to explain incredibly complex concepts patiently and clearly. They make everyone around them better.

    Hey, give credit - the Liberals allowed it, the NDP just continued to allow it.

    We're not just talking about natural earthquake risk. The fracking that's happening near the dam is actively making the earthquakes worse. https://thenarwhal.ca/fracking-induced-earthquakes-buffer-zo...

    Rad idea! I was given an IKEA-branded lego set for Christmas and it was good for hours of entertainment during the winter break.

    For women reading this - beware, it's not that easy. I've followed Starting Strength a couple of times and I plateau at 1.3x my weight in deadlift and .75x my weight in squats. Sticking to the program doesn't get me past it.

    Normally that's true, but I don't think the company's actual valuation has much to do with what's happening here - the company is basically worthless. The only question is how much money you're willing to throw away

    I tried to buy last night at $146, but I didn't get in before the market closed. Today I bought one single share at $360 and I feel like an idiot on multiple levels. Pure gambling, but it's fun.

    Yeah, different egg substitutes apply depending on what you make. Tofu replaces egg in stir fry - flax replaces it in banana bread - aquafaba works for meringues.

    Certainly it's an option in Canada. You call the 811 line and say "I coughed" and they have you in for testing later that day. I've done it twice since March. The only use-case for private testing I can imagine is if you

    I saw both words used in the BLM riots and both words used today. "The Media" is not a monolith. Different organizations spin the story different ways.

    I'm 5'7" and 130lbs (so not fat) and I definitely can't go four hours between meals. I get very angry.

    Getting bullied so much you're afraid to use the bathroom may not be a health issue, but it sure is an issue. If I was a parent I would want to know if that was happening.

    I didn't see anything about an app in the op's comment... I started thinking about how to create a social hub where you can just go and exist. Like men's clubs that used to exist, but without the sexism and classism. A clubho

    So add a second appliance rather than using one that you already have for both comfort and mold prevention?
