Psoriasis. I let it prevent me from enjoying life from my very early 20s through to last year in my early 40s. I finally decided to take medication and had a summer with shorts and t-shirts in at least a decade. Psoriasis has had knock on e

I don’t disapprove of your stickers. Do you disapprove of my sticker-free laptop? I was simply giving you a truthful counterpoint. Those boring people may not be boring. And those stickers that you use as a signal may just be part of a pers

I feel the same way, but I was struggling to understand why. Could you explain why you would not want to read content generated by AI? If you’re reading an article from CNET, it’s probably for the information value and so therefore should b

- I walk 30 minutes a day before work. - I do 100 pushups a day. Day 39 of doing so. 25 x 4 within 10 minutes or so. I started the year at 5 pushups after a long hiatus. I can see the changes to my physique that come from the pushups and am

I was wondering the same. The auto-complete seems to be purposely counterintuitive, accepting some typos for words I would never type (or don't exist) and suggesting the wrong words as well. I wondered if I was just getting old as well

It's frustrating and I am sorry it is someone as close as your mother, but I don't think you can talk sense into someone who has replaced their entire persona with hatred. I had to distance myself from one of my best friends. He b

I started a business when I had two toddlers. I think it gave me a sense of purpose. The ideas and the entrepreneurial drive were present before having children, but I don't think I understood what my life path would be until they arri
