Of course, but for many people, after a couple of drinks, and especially in a party setting, that good judgment goes out the window, resulting in overindulgence and a hangover.

I don't consider myself very savvy in investing, but I guess if "half of all stocks" are owned by index funds that's a concentration of ownership that might be considered unnatural at best. I didn't read past the pa

No, not the "we store decryption keys on our user facing app servers" part. The decryption should happen on back-office payment processing server, with the keys held by a hardware security module. Or better yet don't store th

What's wrong with profiles. They've had those forever and I have half a dozen. I don't see what any of this new "container" stuff really adds to that.

You could use separate profiles on Firefox (which I do, I have half a dozen) and in each profile set up different browser headers. Everything coming from the same IP address would still be an issue, but I doubt that trackers rely on that al

The issue with corn syrup is mostly that it made it cheap for producers to load up their food with it. And most people like sweet food, so they eat more and buy more. Corn syrup isn't really any better or worse for you than cane sugar,

Yes. I think we need stronger education in middle school and high school as to what kids cost, and what they deserve in terms of a stable home and parenting, education, etc. And to not have kids until you are in a position to provide those

To be fair, it's much easier to separate "food" from "not food" than to have to qualify whether any particular product is "good" or "junk" food. Can you imagine the additional bureaucracy needed

There's another group of people like me. I have a good job, with good health benefits. I haven't been to the doctor for myself in probably a decade. I just don't like doctors.

First, if you're making miniumum wage, don't have kids. If you do, you (or at least your kids) likely qualify for Medicaid, so you do get treatment. Often preferentially. I have been to providers who have a 6-8 week lead time on a

If you can rewrite it in 3 or 4 weekends, it's really not that complicated. Either that or significant chunks of it were retained and your improvements were mostly cosmetic.

Unlikely. Garage doors have safety mechanisms that will reverse or at least stop a closing door if there's an obstruction. My guess was that he jumped from the roof, and was found by the garage door. That would explain the blunt force

That's all fine as long as you are interacting with peers. I would never consider visiting any supervisor socially outside of work, especially at their home, however. Office holiday parties are sort of a gray area, but I skip those too
