It absolutely could. This is just the "slippery slope fallacy fallacy": assuming that all slippery slope arguments are fallacious. Complete nonsense. Reasonable precautions aren't a slippery slope. They never have been an

this is what privilege sounds like. Are you suggesting that other people don't have access to the outside, or communication technology? Aside from very few places, there was never any actual lockdown . Everyone in America had the r

The issue with this argument is that it could, just as well, be used to force people to wear bubble wrap instead of clothes No, it most certainly could not. This is just the slippery slope fallacy. Incidentally, nobody forced you to we

So why did you put the wrong headlights in? Honestly, your vehicle sounds ridiculously messed up. You should take some responsibility for setting it up correctly, particularly if you're going to do modifications. Headlight harnesses

It has 4 headlights, two on each side, one above the other. The lamps are identical. Unless you've replaced them, I doubt that's true. Looking up headlamps on RockAuto shows 35w low beams and 50w high beams, with very different

It is, in fact, a thing It isn't. "Grow weary of" is a common phrase. "Grow wary of" are words you can put together, but it's not a common phrase. I've already posted all the evidence needed, and I gro

I'm not sure what your point is, since you looked at the vanishingly uncommon phrase alone, giving the false impression of popularity.

But real chemical engineers are making these decisions Are they? What proof do you have? Personally, I've seen management and bean counters override engineers constantly, so I tend to assume that's standard.

In my experience, it's exceptional in America. This may be due to constant indoctrination that "breakfast is the most important meal of the day". Also, modern food processing has put all sorts of late-night snacks at our fi

I installed a wiki on my personal site and used that to create a sort of bookmark hierarchy with descriptions. Then Google Bookmarks came along, which was perfect, so I switched to using that. Then Google killed the project for some reason

"Redirect some heat" from where? What part of redirect is confusing? In the installs I've seen they did it from inside the house i.e. literally cooled the house down. Cooled the house down, or simply warmed it less than w

Most heat pumps in the United States have 100% efficiency down to about 20 degrees F. Below that they "lose efficiency." Most things that are already installed are worse than the latest technology that's available. That&#x2

I never even fully recovered from the "Facebook, but for X " fad. At least all the previous crazes didn't threaten to replace humans, so I suppose this tech hype bubble is arguably even more irritating.

It doesn't equate, but it implies remote! No, it doesn't. In this case, the title should replace Fulltime with Remote for flexibility. What are you talking about? You think the title should be "After Callous Layoffs, Wor

It's been 15 years since the start of The Great Recession. There's a generation of tech workers learning that things can quickly turn bad. I would also say that there's something particularly unsettling about these layoffs.
