I use portapotties all the time, they're not unicorns and rainbows but assuming they haven't been defaced, i.e. poop or urine all over the inside and not in the receptacle, they're just fine. I don't see them as a dehuma

I think you missed the "primary residence" part of the parent, a parking lot would be taxed, a home you own that you rent would be traced, but your primary residence that does nothing but provide you shelter would not be taxed.

Ok, now you are supporting two different user experiences, depending upon your site that could have massive software implications, i.e. extra cost, versus just checking IP location and saying "sorry no". I'm not defending the

Could you clarify your assertion that it would be massively more expensive? A quick look at the numbers suggests that a 737 MAX 8 is about 10% more efficient on fuel burn compared to a 737 300. That is not "massive" in my book and

Clomifene is used to ameliorate the side effects of testosterone, some testosterone you take will be converted by your body to estrogen and clomifene blocks estrogen. Basically you take it to prevent breast growth.

That's a really big question, I think the simplest way to answer is to say, "(Mostly)Let animals be themselves, kill them quickly". With regard to cows which I know the most about that means letting them eat grass and only pr

I'm really disappointed (?) that nearly all of these answers are about money. I strongly prefer smaller companies for the larger impact you can have, the intimacy between a smaller team, and more freedom for self directed work. That is

That is a salary below the minimum wage in many major American cities and only 200% of the federal poverty line. I'm not suggesting six figures, but maybe 40,000? It just seems odd to me to use a figure that low in a example.
