Honesty, I’ve been using LastPass for years and lately the chrome and Firefox extensions have been really buggy for me. Especially the chrome one. So I’m not sure it’s nefarious.

I think the parent commenter would say that open ended nature of the task makes it not menial - so they procrastinate because it's very hard to get started. Its discrete, not a single ticket that's easier to focus on and get info

My dad, a radiologist once had patient that was so large that they couldn't fit them on a conventional CT scanner. Luckily this was a university town, so they were able to access the vet's large animal scanner.

This isn't a universal solution by any means, but for people you regularly interact with you, you could provide them transparent masks, that allow for better lip reading. For example: https://www.walmart.com/ip/UMf

I was using CityStrides but now I'm using StreetFerret. I like the map a bit more and it shows more stats which is nice. Both have some room for improvement. https://www.streetferret.com/

First, I highly doubt any investors would be interested in yet another Uber/Lyft competitor with nothing to differentiate. They operate at billion dollar losses and just laid off a bunch of employees. It's just a race to who can d

And I’d argue the barrier to entry for taxi businesses should be higher. More cars on the road doesn’t help the environment, or speed up anyone’s commute. Allowing Uber to circumvent this is moving our state in the wrong direction. And uber

I cannot “make my own Uber”. I don’t have a bottomless pit of Saudi Oil money to throw into this unprofitable space. The only people that have the money to compete have no desire to put workers first. They are just trying to establish a mon

Also in those developed countries without minimum wage, they have national healthcare. So a poor comparison in my opinion.

Yeah, they can have no minimum wage because they have organized labor. But if you’re a 1099 for Uber and you attempt to organize a union, you’ll just get fired. Without the ability to form a union, or wage protection, workers are going to b

We already have laws that restrict how Californians work (eg minimum wage, OSHA, EEOC). Do you think we should rollback those requirements as well, in the name of freedom?

For measuring spread of disease like prostate cancer imaging can be really helpful, see: PSMA PET-CT. I could imagine a world where imaging is really cheap and agents were safer, in which case we might opt to use imaging instead of physical

Some companies actively solicit feedback after interactions with customer support, about the interaction. Those surveys link back directly to the agent. More generally there's also NPS.

Give everyone a copy of why we sleep, and then have a chapter by chapter book club over a couple of weeks? I applaud you for helping people with their sleep.
