It might not say much about how male and female brains are different, but just being able to measure whether a brain has male or female brain activity could be a powerful health tool. For example, what if we could use this to determine ahea

Does this mean then that your employer gets to control your actions because it’s their dollars funding your actions? ...yes. That's what a job is. There are also off-duty codes of conduct employees must adhere to. That’s why the gov

Then maybe you shouldn't commit atrocities that can then be used against you. I already know the government of Russia is evil. They're not accountable to me. The American government, ostensibly, is. I want every single evil act th

People need to stop treating other countries as if they're just the next town over. When you visit a place or do business with them you are in part endorsing how they behave and how they govern themselves. If you have a problem locking

As part of the first group, we're still not doing great. Home insurance rates and property taxes have gone through the roof. My mortgage costs 25% more now than it did two years ago.

It seems to be more common now than it used to be. Many pieces of media, whether written or televised, seem to use it as an excuse to avoid committing to a narrative. It's as if they expect people will simply make up whatever headcanon

Not surprised it's doing well. I and multiple other people I know had our sense of taste damaged by Covid such that Dr. Pepper was the only soda that retained something like its former taste, others such as Coke gaining a bitter, harsh

none of those questions have definitive answers I will limit my criticism to saying that this is a trope adopted very often these days and it is not one to which my personality is suited. I like mysteries but I do not like treadmills, run

So the people against it argue, good faith or not, that it violates federal law, and the article arguing for it mentions this repeatedly but chooses not to tell us what federal law it is so we can read it and form an opinion ourselves. I do

How many people are needed? If Google is addicted to reduction in personnel through automation, Microsoft is addicted to disposability. Almost all the work done on Microsoft-developed titles like Halo Infinite is performed by temporary wo

Does a single-computer license count as "lifetime" though?

It's also a "so what" situation. If China's economy is severed from the rest of the world's, competitors can't take its market share. Being five or even ten years behind on chips is irrelevant when your consume
