Then you are no longer a bystander and may continue to film. The irony with this bill is that it would be illegal to closely film the police as a bystander, but if you are arrested/detained for doing so you may film the police detainin

Where are you where you can’t sell excess electricity back to the grid? You definitely can here in SE Pennsylvania. Amongst the few people I know with solar panels on their roof it’s the most common scenario. Several of them have no battery

That may be a bad example but the “patents on insulin” are on the specific processes to create it not on insulin itself. This would be another unique process.

I think you must misunderstand FMLA. FMLA is job protection to take care of medical issues (you or family member). It isn't really any red tape, but it prevents an employer from firing you during those 12 weeks and it prevents them fro

Many birds solely/mostly feed their young insects even if the adults prefer seeds. Even lowly sparrows will eat insects to feed their young. This is one of the reasons Mao’s four pests campaign to kill all the sparrows was such a huge

I had a similar experience. Interviewed, did tech screen (and did well) and then was told they weren’t hiring remote for that position anymore, which sucked because I really aced that tech screen.

If a dog is useful it may be a better use of the excess protein, especially for nomadic peoples. The dog will carry around all of that extra meat and provide a service. Drying/storing the meat may also attract predators.
