Most weight management programs recommend you wean off - and also recommend other drugs if needed (metformin) to for maintenance. The method of these programs is to use the GLP-1 medications to allow you to change your habits significantly

So this ship exists, but the funding for the expeditions have been cancelled from the NSF (US). The wrinkle at the end seems to posit the China challenge - and possibly that's for the best as the US seems to have given up on non-milita

Those would absolutely be good options for EV conversion. What are you objections?

Just a note - the actual EVs are getting rave reviews and seem to be fully customized for postal delivery. https://www.reddit.com/r/electricvehicles/comments/1fflpg8/u...

You do realize that what people actually speak (in France) differs quite a bit from the Académie Française. email vs. courriel for example is a good one, but you'll stand out in most places if you don't know l'argot (slang).

Prevent fires - and overhead power lines are ugly AF. You don't notice it until you go to a place where they don't have them and wonder why the scenery looks so nice.

The gold standard is copper + lead-free solder for incoming pipes, and PEX for sewer/outgoing. I wouldn't use PEX for fresh water pipes.

Taking GLP-1 meds without a program around them is like taking psychedelics without support/setting. Before I started taking mine, I had to spend a whole month living the diet I'd be on (I lost 10lbs just with that diet change alo

Some people who come off the GLP-1 meds (acheiving goal weight) are recommended by their docs to take metformin as a maintenance drug to stabilize weight.

Fine - but that took Google billions and a decade of work to reach near-parity. A new entrant will not have any of that. Web apps can do much more than they could 10 or 15 years ago but still takes massive effort.

Do you use MFA? How about meetings (zoom/teams)? What about MS Office or Google Apps? Is the new email client up to snuff? All of these are much better as apps. Users do not want to browse the web on mobile for all their activities

There were smartphones before the iPhone. I'm not sure you can label Apple's position as "first mover advantage". They got where they did by leapfrogging the competition, dominating the supply chain, having incredible c

Just remembering my first reading thinking: hey they had complex financial instruments back in the 1800s. Also - market manipulation by use of faster comms. But really a nice story.

Why do we need a so-called decentralized currency anyway? I'd be less antagonistic if its major use case wasn't money laundering.

Did you stop at any of the fast chargers on the autoroute stops (Aires de service)? Almost everyone one we stopped at that had a mini-mart/restaurant also had an Ionity or Total station with 8 or 16 bays.

Hot take: The entire goal of the gambling industry is to act as a one-way function for money (ie, laundering). Thus, your proposal might actually work, except what's in it for the rubes?

Where is this? Here in California, it's pay-for-use for the chargers without any restrictions as far as I've seen.

Overbooking is still an industry standard approach to profit maximization. The opportunity cost of being overbooked (rebooking/refunding) is way lower than having a few seats empty because of the average cancellations. tl;dr - airline

Why? Why is Hezbollah firing rockets into Israel? You don't mention Gaza or Palestinians, yet it's right there (and been there for 75+ years).
