About 10 years ago I called an ambulance for a friend at a party. Everyone had said just to get a taxi for him, so I did. When the taxi arrived I realised I couldn't put him in it and called an ambulance instead. He had seizures on the

That must have been really early, I bought the game right at the start of 2016.... and now I just realised my 2111.8 hours equates to over an hour a day since then. In that time, I've been a single dad the entire time time and studied

Even within a single country, I imagine the rural Alabama white is quite different from the rich, privately educated executive board member. I was born and raised in a poor, rural town with a high crime rate. Neither of my parents had a tra

Are they in that position because they are white, or are they in that position because they were born in privileged families? My country has had predominantly white, male Prime Ministers. What's even more remarkable is that every singl

Boards with at least 6 members must have at least 3 female board members (from https://www.advocate.com/business/2018/10/01/california-outl... ). My understanding was there is a smaller pool of qualified

At university, I generated Markov chains of the solution space from a single neuron that was being used as a binary classifier. You take n samples, average them out and look at the decision boundary. The decision boundary itself is linear b

I increased my luck by making five year goals, thinking about what behaviours I'd need to adopt to reach these goals and then making those activities a priority. I'm incredibly successful by my own metrics now and I'm very ha

I was quite gifted at math, first place out of a school year of 250+ students. I know as an adult that I have all n m for all 0<n,m<10 memorised. When I see something like 7 9 I use memory and not logic. I feel a lot of math is made e

What about the city/county where a few issues causes insurance to not want to touch the place? All of a sudden they can't hire enough police and this causes social issues.

The fact that you have multiple men in your life saying this might be an indication of some of the difficulties men face. I'm making an assumption here that you chose good men to be your friends. Either you're picking sex offender

Everything in your story lines up with that article. It's probably worth a fair bit now if he can find it.

Why am I treating someone "poorly" if I refuse to go out of my way to give them help when it's not a requirement of my job? For example, refusing to be an unofficial mentor for somebody. I'm a single parent to two little

There's being a professional but there's also not seeing the situation you are in. I would be hesitant to be in a one on one situation in a private area with a female colleague, especially one below me in the organisational struct

I feel that the best thing someone with a really IQ can do is enter into a work culture where their IQ is going to be kind of average. Their work peer group will overlap their social peer group and they'll have a sense of belonging. If

I think you're only looking at "smart people" as people who want to share how smart they are. You seem to be ignoring the social isolation that can come with it. Your interests might no be similar to those around you, if you&

I wouldn't be surpised if there are over 50k individuals in the US with the electronics/computer knowledge to pull this off. All it takes is one person to develop an obsession with it and spend the time needed to pull it off. If y

While I like the principal of a UBI, people not living in poverty, it strikes me that OP's reasoning is one of the reasons why I see issues with a UBI. Who is going to want to work a factory/service job when you can live comfortab

It's ignorant at best to argue that this is only going to be used by those who wouldn't have purchased a Switch. Once something is free then a lot of people won't spend hundreds of dollars on it.

My work was talking about a 10 year plan yesterday. In the back of my mind I couldn't help but realise that the majority of the population was just getting smart phones 10-11 years ago. My parents didn't know what WiFi was, intern

My daughter does art daily. She also builds intricate cities in Minecraft. It blows my mind how detailed a 7 year old could get. I suspect building in 3D is going to provide some spatial benefits that drawing doesn't.

The Australian system is using the land in that way because the land isn't good for much else. If Australia wasn't largely arid or desert then I suspect we'd have a far higher population and much intensive land use.

This is what I don't understand about companies planting trees to offset their fossil fuel CO2. Our problems are heavily caused by carbon being dug out of the ground and released. A tree just means that the carbon will be released at a

At what stage do you find "wasting fuel" on power an issue? Early game one x red-belt of coal will supply fuel for electricity generation. One you go to solar + accumulators you very quickly don't need steam power anymore unl

I wasn't familiar with the term sisyphic so I searched it. I got some results for sisypic, which certainly weren't what I expected but proves that the internet is for porn.
