No, it didn’t. You may choose to follow old traditions that don’t make sense any more, but that is something you choose. There are very few jobs today where physical strength make a difference, and before the industrial revolution the fathe

And then you can take another step and ask why professions dominated by women in general are less well paid than similar ones dominated by men, and why it is mostly women who reduce their work hours while the kids are small and why not more

It solves the problem that you can plan your trip. The complaint was that you couldn’t plan your trip. Not everyone go to work at the same time, so every car will be available for several trips. And what would be wrong with prices that vari

It’s funny that you bring up Van Gogh, because he was as far from the archetypal genius as you can imagine. He started late, and he produced a lot of quite crappy paintings for many years before he produced his great works. And not least, h

We oiled them according to the manufacturer’s instructions. And it’s not like an iron pan that you naturally put oil and grease in as part of your cooking. I’m sure the countertop might become saturated eventually by use, but it would have

Trust me, we did. We got some special oil that was what we were told to use. But then some slightly drunk people made Margaritas a late evening. And my brother left a used teabag next to the sink. Then the cleaner managed to scratch the ma
