Closest thing I can relate to is the airport scanning machines in the US which I refused for a long time because I felt at best they were just useless pork-barrel spending so the gov't can appear to be doing something to protect us fro

Steve Jobs wasn’t the innovator he was the guy trying to keep everything for Apple from a business perspective which you said should be distinguished from the people doing the actual innovative work. Also it’s an understatement to say that

I’ve lived here (SF)for almost 20yrs and I have yet to see anyone open carry here unless they’re trying to make some political statement. Sure it could be that I just don’t see all the people that are carrying concealed but I do think there

Unless you have your gun on you at all times in your house what are the chances you’re going to move fast enough to return fire on people cruising through a neighborhood randomly shooting at houses?

I prefer this version which forgoes the dairy until drinking time which I find to be smoother and less harsh than adding it upfront: https://www.cooksillustrated.com/how_tos/6704-eggnog-better-...

The problem is that it's hard to define what's meant by interesting. It could be that companies who pay well have to because most people don't find their problems interesting so they need to pay more just to get people in the

I think the qualification is necessary. Even Warren Buffet admits that he got rich in a very specific way using skills that would be all but useless in any other context but him winning the "ovarian lottery". https://ww

The study in the OP is specific to alternate day fasting though, which is generally much more tolerable than straight-up multi-day fasts, and can be done over a much longer term.

Moratorium on human procreation until we have a sustainable transition off of fossil fuels. Really it's just cruel at this point to continue to play this game where more people are brought into being, presumably for their parent's

$10 million and I would feel comfortable knowing I wouldn't need a job again. Less is certainly doable but just doesn't "feel" like I'd be safe mainly because I'm in the US in San Francisco and healthcare (prio
