It depends. If it's an interesting problem I have to work on, but I can't right away, I think about it as I'm going about my day. Driving, cooking dinner, rotting in a meeting. Then by the time I get to finally do it, it&#

I would imagine it happens a lot more than hospital visits would let on. Being nudged into the curb - or getting spooked by a too-close car and hitting it yourself - would likely result in just scrapes and bruises, especially if you'r

I'm no interior designer, but I think it's fun to let decor mutate slowly instead of "redoing the living room". If I see a chair I like, what do I need to change for it to fit in with what I have? I don't know if

The car color graph is very effective, nice work.

Actually a great behavioral line of questioning - how clearly the the candidate can explain what happened, how they describe whatever part they played or mistakes they made...

Agreed with the other user - if you can get livecast + tipping going that'll be your hook. Hosts will then have a specific reason to plug your platform. Best of luck, very promising!

I don't doubt you, since you saw this first-hand and didn't hear it from your friend's cousin's dog. But what purpose could a sign like that serve for tellers?

Ok, I agree there, folks will always be at odds re:personhood and the morality of terminating a pregnancy. That's why I don't even bother with "it's a clump of cells" anymore regardless of my beliefs - it's a

That's kind of silly. The easiest way to free the one frees the other. We all just want to go about our lives within being forced by law to sacrifice our rights to our bodies.

by sjostrom7 4y ago
Disagree. You can turn up the personhood all the way and still, in a scenario where a child was dying and needed a kidney and their parent was the only available match, the parent could not be legally forced to donate it. Why? They own t

Not ignoring it. Just refusing to accept that the rights of the pregnancy supersede the rights of the human carrying it.

I understand you have strong feelings about whether you wanted an abortion, and that's totally understandable and I'm glad you are happy with the choice you made. But that's not at odds whatsoever with referring to yourself

I (100% pro-choice) think they just get bored with hammering on the bodily autonomy aspect, so they start making posts about what the bible "really" says about abortion and other weak, as you say, arguments. I really think they g

Hard disagree. The law should affect you exactly as much regardless of income. Poverty is not a moral failing and wealthy people should not be above the law, which they effectively are with a fixed-amount fine.

Bold of you to link to a conversation where you get put in your place, but ok. Since you're apparently not interested in the politifact or snopes links someone else provided, here's a "primary source". In your comment yo

It certainly doesn't for me. Once you listen to things (presumably things you like), it updates your suggestions and offers a lot of more fine-tuned stations and mixes.

You're probably also more able to work if your folks make enough money to have a stay-at-home parent (so you don't have to watch your younger siblings), buy you a car to get back and forth from your job, etc. Without seeing how th

In addition to the other responses, plane cabins have very low humidity, which can take out your mucosal protections from getting a cold. It's really common to at least have a scratchy throat after flying just from dryness, and often

That sounds like a good decision. I would greatly respect someone that I saw making this call, far more than if they tried to struggle through and did damage to their own careers or others. Best of luck to you.

Exactly. If someone's in the meeting in genuinely bad faith, 5-whys isn't going to improve their attitude. But it can help re-frame things for folks that just hadn't taken the time to consider other viewpoints.

The book is great at emphasizing and re-emphasizing the incremental nature of the journey, all the competition and co-discovery and the tiny steps building on each other's work that led up to Doudna and Charpentier's breakthroughs

The word "ice" doesn't appear in the piece. It's about a combination of severe droughts and damming.

Intuitively, this makes sense to me. Material costs of working from home vs commuting are highly variable, but considering time costs: if you value your employee's time, and they're spending more of it to get to work each day, sh

It was a rhetorical question, sorry :) It sounded like they were saying that the only cause of kids being confused about their biological parents was infidelity.
