Interesting idea. Trying to find an angle where it could all go wrong but it seems vastly better than crap we get now. More personal responsibility it seems. I would add that rotate those every 2 years maybe. But then there needs to be mech

Old people all have massive long term health issues. That's where most of the healthcare costs in universal healthcares go. Change the balance way more towards old instead of young being generally still healthy and feeding the system f

A lot of assumptions, some could be correct, some are plainly not. Your idea of living in society is something very different form my idea, or European idea (and reality). Not seeing how everything is interconnected, ripple effects and seco

I certainly can and do that. Can you please convince remaining 8 billions to do the same? Based on ie election behavior or populations, what you describe is naivety on a level of maybe my 5 year old son. Can you try to be a bit more constru

Absolute control over what people think and know, which is sort of absolute control overall with power to normalize anything, including what we consider evil now. Look at really powerful people of this world - literally every single one of

That's the 'societal' part of living in society, sharing the risks and yes sharing the gains a bit too. I know some right wing folks see it as unnecessary burden, either they are above the financial cut or (dumbly) believe th

Would remove that keto part, otherwise agree. Keto is great for lowering fat levels but long term effects can be terrible if unsupervised professionally, ie permanent internal organs damage, more than negating any benefits gained. Not sure

Small kids do this to everybody. The only solution - if you have good family nearby, use them as parenting services from time to time, to get me-time, couple-time and social time with friends. Buy them gift or vacation as return. Its incred

Not sure where you are based, but in general GPs shouldn't be doing psychological evaluation, period. I am in Europe, and this is the default. If you live in utter shithole (even if only health-care wise), move elsewhere if its importa

Maintain? Maybe. Create new ones? No way I am believing this, literally everything in this reality for past 20+ years points exactly the opposite.

Not happening anytime soon. Those product management types are more expensive than devs in most places, you would be literally a) increasing cost per hour worked; and b) stiffling the use of (pricey) management skills of such manager to do

You write a new car, you write home repairs. I've never bought a new car, despite it being always an affordable option - they are simply too expensive, literally throwing money into fire. If you are a home owner, it means you are at le

900kg steel cap is a bit more than manhole :) And it was most probably vaporized, either by blast itself or by rapid compression of air. They estimated if it actually started flying it would have 6x Earth escape velocity (cca 240,000 kmh),

Why not simply quietly refuse to jump on that train? Maintain velocity, keep working as per your contract, not a second more. Don't pick up phones outside work hours, weekends are for yourself, recharging and family. You know, humane w

Even brilliant companies sometimes make stupid moves and shoot off their legs with literal shotgun. Past performance is not an indication of future and all that. I'd say this is testing waters, seeing how big backlash will be. The sad

If a nuclear reactor was bombed during the war, would the resulting deaths be counted as a nuclear disaster and used as argument against it, or just another war crime? Depends who you ask I'd say.
