Focusing on peoples' insensitivity allows the company to distract from the bigger point: why do so many people feel this way? Bro was also in trouble for alleged insider trading.

Other rich (and not-so-rich) countries have vastly better health outcomes than the US, and at much lower cost per capita. If (as you point out) large US healthcare providers have low profit margins, it's because they are very inefficie

According to the link you shared, the Tabata research involved a TINY number of athletic, male, Japanese undergrads. I remember being stunned when I first looked it up years ago. It's not at all obvious that their findings - which beca

UW is a leading public R1 university with 50,000 students and almost 5000 faculty. Are you really going to tar them with all with your "openly bigoted" brush?! That feels a very simplistic take. To put it another way, you can&#x2

Thanks for reminding me - I also used to own a Zojirushi, and all the conversions were a lot more headache than I've had with my Instant Pot. I had to write down all the calculations on a 3x5 card, and then try not to lose that, or get

I only press one button ("Pressure") when cooking rice in my Instant Pot. It remembers the last several settings I've used - one of those is 12:00 for rice. If you don't have a pressure cooker, that's fine. But for

You are being deliberately obtuse. I don't understand why you do this. Reread my comment: the "low fat diet trend" is very much a thing today - at Trader Joe's, at the doctor's office, and almost everywhere else - e

In the US. 2024 AD. E.g. at Trader Joe's, look at the huge quantity of fruit juices, sugary snacks, and low-fat dairy products they sell. "Low-fat" should not even exist as a category! Trader Joe's customer base is much
