One is following the law and the other isn't. If the letter of the law doesn't enforce the spirit of the law, it was poorly written or it's out of date and needs to be amended. In theory, the US system allows for those…
It's like 50% if you also count the stuff I pay for that is a direct benefit to me at retirement (as does anyone who pays into social security). So it might be a little nitpicky, and your point still stands. A lot of…
I bet you'll find that more people don't approve of what their representative is doing than do approve. Low voter turnout allows for bullshit to slip through the cracks by targeting very small blocs of voters. I…
I wish ranger Rick existed for teens though. My kids loved that when they were smaller, but now we have to spend a shit ton of effort to find teen appropriate content of a similar nature (hah!).
I went once. It feels like Disney Land but for the wealthy. I'll never go back, and I actually regret going to be honest. It's disgusting and it's right out in the open.
Something, something, Plato's allegory of the cave.
Yeah, have you ever been to Dubai? Slavery is "illegal". I'm convinced that the absolute modernity is only a sideshow attraction for the ultra-wealthy to visit Dubai. The real show is the servants.
Do you know what is happening with McConnell? Because the news is everywhere from he's fine to he's dead.
The step that a lot of people miss is letting their family know their wishes as well in very clear and strong language. Don't forget to do that.
Your statement is confusing. Please explain. DNR means let me die and do not intervene in that process. Which is what hospitals would want if they were secretly killing people to harvest organs, right?
The amount of morphine available to the patients on hospice that I have known has made it very clear what the actual intent of those scripts is. Granted, my sample size of 6 isn't great, and 3 were in terrible pain so…
But what is it in football fields? That's the usual measurement of size in the States and it's absolutely unbelievably ridiculous.
The one thing that is keeping me from riding the routes that I believe would be the must fun/scenic is the OBSCENE cost of those tickets. Granted, these aren't commuter tickets. I would love a trip across the high…
Everything on your list but VA benefits and defense are very regularly called into question. Even VA benefits are questioned pretty regularly, but that tends to be put down pretty quickly.
Like almost everything, it's almost certainly false for some people. And almost certainly true for others. It's almost like you can't paint an entire country with one brush?
When I was a kid you could get actual m80's that were like a quarter stick of dynamite. Now you can only get little firecrackers that don't even blow up little green army men. It's really dependent on your state laws.…
Why? If they do good work and meet or exceed expectations, who cares why they're doing it?
Your last sentence is literally the tragedy of the commons.
Lathe and plaster is my actual arch enemy. Both my parents and my in-laws have it in their houses, and I'm the go to handy man. Hate hate hate hate hate
Figure 8 fasteners for the win, baby. Let that table top grow an inch. I don't care.
I mean, the current party in power is making out in the open moves to profit directly from tanking the federal government. What's the centrist view in this one? A little robber baroning as a treat?
Google Disaster Capitalism. What we've done to other countries has finally turned inwards. It was just a matter of time.
That's close but not quite. That says that when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure. My argument is that in the 21st century, a time of great data use without deep understanding, any measure at…
The problem is that for 99% of people in 99% of cases they work fine. It's hard for people to understand that they're trash. Source; my last job working with accessibility and that nightmare.
You have to realize that if you set a measure, you're actually setting a goal for your employees. There is no such thing as a meaningless metric; why else would you measure it? No amount of "this isn't used for…
