It could be that they wanted design information and other details from him, and were going to use those to build up domestic manufacturing alongside import restrictions.

It's hard to say from the outside what the goals would be - pushing him in certain directions, extracting intel, etc.

Have you tried having sex with someone for an extended time and not catching some emotions? It's tough.

We kind of have reached that point. You can look at the cost overruns and public consultation before every new project as failures of the system to deliver what people want.

You can pay an architect to be very disciplined if you find a good one. Or you can pay a personal trainer to do discipline for you, a dietician, a personal assistant to be disciplined about your time...

I think it's like millennial grey. Not only is it more expensive to add ornamentation, it also hurts resale and repurposing of buildings. Ideally you want mostly identical boxes where you could change the sign to make it a church, a McDonalds, a clothing store, etc every few years.

Or that seems like the goal of commercial builders now, right?

Doesn't everyone do that? My brother has a grandparents name as his middle. I never thought of it as a gendered tradition

Is it a specific cultural thing I wonder

If you're changing the contents and need to change the temperature, shouldn't someone at the local store be there changing the contents?

I'm not even sure of a scenario where remote control from off site is faster or more convenient. I could see a managers office wanting a connection to them maybe.

They do here in pennsylvania, even with an electronic touchscreen. The ballot is printed and you check that it recorded your stuff correctly and then immediately put into a lockbox for tabulation later.

This seems like a fair compromise as long as the actual ballot is on paper and human readable?

Take flock out of some cities and see if their crime trend continues. I expect you'll find the cameras really don't move the needle much.

Transplant means anyone who moves into your city, in my experience. It has a kind of NIMBY ish or anti gentrification tone, like "NJ transplants don't understand like real new yorkers" but I don't think it refers to immigration specifically.

Only some states allow simple plug in roof top or balcony solar I believe. So depending on your area you might be required to do a grid hookup and lose access to it during outages.

Tokyo manages a very tight schedule and they're enormous, so it can't only be scale that matters. And how do you fund effective transit in a smaller city with less of a tax base?

The margin is a little close, so is the Senate expected to be deadlocked? Or is there a coalition that can form between moderates and the left?

This is probably a good support case for run-off elections being beneficial.

Think of those Samsung moons? That was really just creating new information on demand for a while. I think it looks pretty tacky too.

I think their question is whether it's replaced work in industries focused on that - AI movies becoming popular and very profitable, AI written books selling large numbers etc

Very possibly on the way but so less uptake than software engineering for sure.

iTunes is more trustworthy for this, but keep in mind not every service where you can buy things will be. Sony did just revoke movies this year and I wouldn't really rely on Google or Amazon for it at least

The meds are intended to allow you to work without needing to be in crisis mode and the anxiety of it. That's standard for the condition, but it's not a very healthy strategy long term and you'll find yourself unable to do normal tasks without the crisis mode the longer you use it as a crutch.

For instance, do you struggle to keep your home clean until someone is visiting and the anxiety of them seeing compels you to focus on it?

How would we know which way that runs? Lower income could expose you to stressors that make ADHD worse, maybe especially in childhood. But ADHD could also easily make it harder to earn money or hold a stable career down too.

It would be good to use funds that way but it's not gonna get the protected species back. We need some teeth to actually stop these things from happening

Isn't obsidian doing the new fallout? I think Bethesda might get the axe before them if anyone does. Or they'll get merged together and shook down for spare devs

There's no rule that says it has to be a positive or negative change overall, just that the people involved are always changing. if they had found the right new talent bioware could have pulled it off too maybe, it just wouldn't be the original bioware either way

they do slow your metabolism so that probably explains the hair and stuff

the lifestyle habit and stuff to me is eating the same thing every morning or getting used to falling asleep hungry, those kind of adjustments. doesn't mean you get less hungry eventually

and then if anything changes (move, new job, new friends start coming over more and you want to be social) you'll fall out of the habits naturally. you can only do it as long as you can do it

Could be they shift formats, but I'm not sure Golden corral will still exist at least

This is true for diets too. You have to keep doing whatever the new behavior is to keep it up.

So maybe the goal is use the drugs to shift your lifestyle to eating less, having less food in the house, and being more active and then wean off it

Getting down to 1200 or 1400 calories is pretty restrictive yeah. You can't do it without counting and meal prep the same way you can go from 3000 to 2000 by skipping snacks

As soon as the diet requires cutting out a daily meal or changing the contents of meals in really harsh ways (like no bread) it's going to get on your nerves and make you neurotic.

it's so much faster to do both at once though, and you retain more muscle mass during it and so on

so long as you can live like a monk and hit the gym every night for a few months it's pretty good. this is dependent on you being able to stand being hungry and cranky and going to bed exhausted for all that time though

I can't think of how it'll really eliminate prompting, but needing to carefully phrase your language already seems in the way out? Wasn't one of the prompts leading to solving fields problems just "look for fields problems and try very hard" or the equivalent

What I'm saying is that "knowing how to do something" requires knowing how to actually implement that solution, how to get people to agree to do it. You might as well say "we know how to get to tau ceti".

The nice thing about ozempic is that it makes people less hungry and less able to eat large portions. Once 30% of the country is on it, expect buffets to go out of business and restaurants to need to shift to smaller portions in response. So it'll make it easier for everyone not on the drugs too.
