Maybe a naive question but do you really need 1:1s every week? At my first startup we did them like every 2 months and it was a treat. If you needed something in between you just asked for it. At my second company even once every two weeks

Sexism is not defined as things that disproportionally affect people based on sex. Are tampons sexist? Is the vagina itself, sexist? Whether or not questions around abortion "disproportionally affect" women is not the question. Ab

I agree. People are doing the wrong thing by taking horse-sized doses, and should be careful with drugs that are not prescribed to them. The way you're phrasing things would be a much more understandable message that would not push peo

People know when they're being played for fools and if you don't treat them as if they're capable of nuance you will only lose their trust and push them further away.

The other side of it is that it was unnecessarily lambasted and made to seem unscientific when it was being administered by our hospitals. People would go in Twitter and shout "people promoting HCQ are idiots!" while their grandpa

They are. If they weren't, they'd say "People are overdosing on ivermectin by taking doses intended for Horses." Instead they call the drug itself a "horse dewormer," and make it sound like that's its excl

Why do you mention hydroxychloroquine as if it were snake oil? At least some hospitals here administered it as part of their covid routine, ostensibly because they believed it helped according to the science.

I don't think anyone's saying they shouldn't stop. That's not the point the person you're replying to is making.

Honest question regarding the data on ivmmeta.com: I had heard that there was some pre-existing fraud in some Ivermectin studies. I don't know how true that is. Is it true? And if so, does this website account for that by withholding t

I think the kidney example is a little too technical for a good metaphor. A parent does have an obligation to feed and keep healthy a child that cannot care for itself. There is such a concept as criminal negligence. For example, parents ha

The cynic in me believes that the ambiguity is intentional, because it allows us as adults to have a greater ability to escape the consequences of our actions. (Excepting rape, etc.) I'm pro-choice, it just seems like a truth people do

It is an interesting question. Clearly by the end of the term the baby can be forced out and live. It cannot live independently - but neither can a baby that has been born naturally. It takes like, five years for that. So dependence on the

For it to be the schtick that'd have to be sort of the pont of the show, but it's only a topic of discussion so long as it's made relevant by those in our society, and even then that ignores the large diversity of guests and

No, it's perfectly reasonable. I don't disagree with you, or more accurately, I'm not even presenting an opinion on whether the US should have stayed or left. But given that leaving was the choice, and perhaps the rational ch

I'm not sure that it matters most either. But it certainly matters somewhat. The point is that if the "other side" were in power at the time and executed the process exactly the same with the same results, the way it would be

Did we read the same article? The theme to me seemed to be around people using it to store wealth and keep businesses running despite bank account closures - not speculation.
