I'm not conceding any other part of whatever argument you're making, but saying that unfertilized eggs are individual humans is completely ludicrous. They aren't separate organisms. They might eventually be used to create one

Does VS Code support more refactoring and code generation now? I last used it heavily over a year ago, and at the time it seemed like anything beyond moving files and renaming things wasn't really doable. Meanwhile, in JetBrains's

Around where I live in Massachusetts (and I think where I used to live in Virginia), bikes are permitted to use an entire lane. Paved shoulders are not travel lanes. They often have debris (nails, glass bottles, etc) which don't get

"Discussing real solutions" sounds about as substantial a suggestion as "throw your hands up and say there's nothing more we can do". People are already talking. It's not suggesting anything more concrete than

Also, if you’re really set on only focusing on one of these things (which I think this is a bad idea): the health impact of being anorexic is generally much worse than being overweight.

Is it possible to use virtualization and x86 emulation at the same time now? I’d gotten the impression that people didn’t think that was ever going to happen, and it seems like a pretty non-obscure reason to want Intel support to continue.

Not all drills have a torque limiter. As I understand it, you're more likely to find those on cordless drills than their corded brethren. I've actually never used a corded drill with a torque limiter, but most of cordless ones I&#
