That is generically true of any two places. But, you stated there was lots less to do there. I am curious what you are into that this seems to be true to you. What are your interests? I was a military wife. I have lived all over. I just fin

So, serious question, explain to me why you think the weather is "miserable" and what is it you "do" all the time that you can't imagine living in Fresno? I don't get it. There are national forests there. Woodw

It's interesting that I can't think of any of these megagrowth tech startups that have gone off without a hitch. Doing anything in the real world is hard. Some military sayings come to mind: "No battle plan survives contact

Fresno is really a great place. I was there for over two years. I don't know why it gets badmouthed so much. And, yes, compared to coastal big cities in California, it is dramatically cheaper. They are starting a high speed rail line t

While it would be nice to assume this is a Good Samaritan pointing out a problem with a page I link to, my suspicion is otherwise. A Good Samaritan would not hide behind a cloak of invisibility. Former naïve Good Samaritan here who has le

Get a copy of the book "Getting to Yes." It's a quick read and should help you figure out how to approach him. My guess is that since he is "salesy," he is the kind of person who values social capital and he thinks

I realize that. I am not advocating for 100 percent gig work here. I don't understand why anyone would think I am.

by Mz 9y ago
That hasn't been my experience. I do what I can to try to promote the idea of gig work done well such that it is a net positive for the worker in metrics like quality of life and control over their schedule. Granted, some things are in

My remarks in no way suggest we do away with standardized time zones. So, I don't have any idea how you are making that leap.

Wouldn't that get messy quick? If we go there, don't we also need to have catalogs of maps by date for every planet? (No, not kidding.)

I had to look that up. You are correct: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toe_the_line (Still learning my native tongue at age 52.)

There is one flaw with your theory here: Historically, noon was defined locally by the sun being directly overhead. All time was local time. Then we invented trains and railroads and you couldn't schedule anything with such a system. T

One of the problems with this idea is that it kind of paints you into a corner. It doesn't allow you to aspire to be the person you desire to be. It predicts that who you are is static and then it helps make that a reality. During my d

As a general rule of thumb, consultants need to charge around twice as much per hour as the same work pays in a salaried position. So, if you think $15/hour is a reasonable rate for this "job," you should charge $30/hour

It's fine if you two want to dig into the stats, but I don't think that element is really essential to the point that "Similarly, not all unmarried people are child molesters, contrary to the impression you might have from al

It sincerely looks like a nonanswer to me. If you would care to explain how it is not, I am sincerely interested. But it seems to have no real bearing here, as far as I can tell.

So, in other words, you have zero source for policies known to work and there is no list you can point me to for known solutions. Thank you.

Is there any expectation that you will be making hydrogen peroxide for sale in the usual brown bottle, like you can get at pharmacies, etc? If so, what kind of price point would you expect. As someone who uses a lot of peroxide and prefers

I am not assuming malicious intent. But you continue to use tactics that look openly hostile, not like an attempt to communicate in good faith. Also, all of the rebuttals here seem to assume that the people who wind up addicted to porn are

No, it is much closer to saying "If you can't meet the strict standard of celibacy outside of marriage historically required by the Catholic church, at least use a condom. It is a lesser sin." (From what I gather, the church

No one is required to be hooked on porn. But if you look at the big picture, more porn results in less rape, sexual assault and even child sex abuse. It does come with the downside that some people get hooked on it. I am wholly supportive o

That doesn't really answer the question. I am interested in seeing a list of policies and practices that actually work to do the following: 1) Include women equally in the work force. 2) Protect all parties from both sexual impropriety

The solutions aren’t that difficult, they just take time and consistent desire and willingness by legislature and business leaders to follow through. So far that desire has been largely absent, and with recent revelations it’s not hard to

In my case, it was also against company policy for two people to have a relationship where one was below the other in chain of command. So if he were in charge of people and projects, asking me out immediately barred me from ever getting an
