I don't think this is quite it, I think you're underrating the social aspect of it, and the algorithm aspect of it. When I was in high school (livejournal and myspace era), I had a friend group where most of the hanging out occu

I think that sign applies to the left lane only. It's to stop you from turning right from the left lane. I think turning right from the lane the car is in is legal.

If you look at the blue track on the screen, the car is indicating it's going to go straight, not that it plans to turn right. I think the word veer is applicable because it is sudden and unexpected. If this was only a mistimed right t

This is the city-driving beta that's only available to a small number of people. I have read that at this point, it is more stressful than driving yourself, but it is not yet at the point where anything more is expected.

I was looking at getting a used 12 the other day, and it was hardly worth it. Almost new prices. Does Apple continue selling old models at a discount? Will the used prices crater now?

Unless these factors are outside the realm of objective reality, we can certainly replicate them in a lab given a sufficiently sophisticated understanding. Obviously, we're not there yet, and realistically, we might never identically r

For me, lab grown meat can't come soon enough. I've reduced my meat consumption, but I really do enjoy it, and don't like the idea of giving it up entirely.

This is a challenging balance to strike. I used to work with someone who I considered "that guy", but there was no denying that the code ended up better for it, even if it would have been basically fine otherwise. Especially over

Yang has never been my top choice, but I think he's generally a good dude. However a third party could be disastrous for the democrats, who can only just barely win elections due to the current structure of the electorate. Hopefully he

I'm a different person than you're replying to, but just to give some examples of how capital organizes itself, there are a ton of organizations they use to represent their interests. For example, at every level of government, the

Is having quotas itself a problem, or is it that the quotas are too demanding and rigid? From what I've read, it's very hard for most people to meet them, and injuries are common. Turnover is also very high. Quotas do have the ben

Apologies if this is obvious, but if you're not getting callbacks, usually the issue is with your resume or application. If you haven't already, I would look for groups that review resumes and applications (especially groups that

I have to admit I don't understand why companies are so opposed to this. Companies I've worked at have ranges of salary internally, which presumably they could share. The ranges are large enough that I think employees would strugg

I'm in Oregon, so it rains enough through most of the year that the lawn keeps itself going. It goes dormant from lack of water in the summer, but that's fine with me. Doesn't seem to need anything else so far, except mowing.

I really want/wanted to get rid of my lawn when I first bought my house, until I realized how easy to maintain it is, especially if you don't care if it's looks nice. Bushes need to be trimmed, garden beds need to be weeded,

It's also not that common to have a sprinkler system here, and watering the lawn is kind of a PITA, especially if you want to avoid dirty looks for watering the sidewalk.

I really struggle to believe that people in Georgia with a lawn are spending 5 hours a week maintaining it. That's basically an entire weekend day. Why can't you mulch it, or use the clipping bag? My grass grows quickly in Spring
