In some branches of engineering (traditional engineering, not software), there are sometimes too few symbols in the Latin and Greek alphabets, so they have to rely heavily on subscripts. Expanding the set of symbols…
If the use of greek letters is a major hurdle to learning maths, I'm guessing that the learner has misunderstood something fundamental about symbols in maths. It shouldn't make any significant difference if the symbols…

I, for one, am perfectly happy not giving money to companies enforcing DRM. If only 1/10 to 1/5 of the population cared (which will never happen), I'm sure we would see a major change in attitude from media companies.
From https://doi.org/10.1093/gerona/glv057 We found no significant adverse effects of CR [calorie restriction] on a broad range of quality of life variables including mood, self-reported hunger, sexual function, and…

Having an OS that arbitrarily denies applications access to files would drive me mad very quickly. I'm guessing that seemingly unpredictable behaviour would annoy the average user as well.
I find using brand names for drugs less-than useful in international contexts. Brand names differ between countries, generic names don't (except paracetamol/acetaminophen).
If dreams only were the result of some cleanup process (i.e. just arbitrary neurons firing), I imagine they would be a lot less coherent and all events would be (stochastically) independent. While dreams usually don't…

They are trying to achieve complete control over the code it runs. Which is in some ways the opposite of Apple's approach to security.

Part of the reason why people are afraid of flying is because you are locked inside an aluminium container flying 10km above ground. Sitting in a self-driving car is psychologically quite different.
There are a couple advantages to the EU system that I can think of: * Workers can (in theory) move around the EU depending on the demand for them in the different regions. * Lower bureaucratic cost.
Do you know if (m)any of your coworkers also quit?
