> The stereotype that women barely ever date "below" them, in wealth, height, status, remains true. Your character still matters, but only after checking the above boxes. Men are selected by utility, with disastrous consequence

2 doses of diphenhydramine can have very noticeable and profound effects on many people, 50mg total isn't a light dose by any metric. That seems fine as a comparison to 0.1% BAC. But 60mg Fexofenadine makes no sense to me in comparison

You can pay people fixed monthly salary + overtime hours. You don’t need to cut their hours and their pay, though that’s often the choice that employers make.

Let's assume that all iPhones that are "repaired" by an Apple Store are actually replaced by the Apple Store. This matches my experience - go in with broken phone, walk out with brand new identical phone. Then assume all the

They’re omitting mentioning that this practice is often accompanied by “smuggling” / tariff evasion. Pretty key omission.

There is some question about how much NK/SK outcome disparity is due to economic penalties vs artificial support. For many decades after the Korean War, China’s economy wasn’t large enough to prop up North Korea. One wonders, regardles

I completely agree, but it was very interesting to watch a top professional of Starcraft2, "HeroMarine", take over as the top player of the newest Age of Empires.

I don’t think styles a la “Impressionism” or “Manga” are generally copyrightable. Potentially narrowly trademark-able for a specific look and feel that correspond to a branding. But Warner brothers can’t sue people for using “bullet time” i

Well the argument is masks work better until there’s a mask shortage for any reason, or any large drop in percentage of people wearing a mask. Then you might see an impactfully large pandemic that could have been avoided if we had more freq

Indeed. Who’s to say that viruses might not lose their ability to infect humans if humans don’t carry them for the next 10-15 years? If everyone strictly followed the teachings of Christ and all humans were monogamous for an entire generati

More importantly, if impressionist painting style had never been invented, DALL-E probably wouldn't be able to invent it. There's still lots of room for artists to invent new styles.

You’d need to recompile the binary to take advantage of new instructions. The compiler alone, but also the code, can create branches where the binary checks if certain instructions are available and if they are not, use a less optimal opera

It's still plenty fast for most real-world applications. I did a lot of work with the Cortex M3, which similarly lacks floating point. With many compilers you can even still use float() directly and the compiler will convert the floati

I think it makes sense for age of adulthood to be a graduated system for different perks at different ages. If we ever make “K-16l” schooling free I suspect it will come about in tandem with increasing the perceived age of adulthood. Meanwh
