I know they make sure that all the workers suit up to prevent oil from skin ruining any chance at a high vacuum.
Spotify will randomly choose new podcasts rather that play you new episodes of podcasts you are already following.
Edit: And the fact that I can't get a history of what I've played drives me up the wall. Podcasts and songs.
I also worry that hardening the infrastructure in first world countries is going to be very expensive. Especially if the developing countries are so badly affected that they can't provide the normal supplies of food, minerals, ores, etc.
I think the Overton window needs to shift soon to include the idea that widespread government intervention will be required to avoid 800 million climate refugees
Right now companies are saving up profits in their bank balances. I think if you increase the tax they pay then those balances will grow more slowly and the tax money will flow into the economy via the public sector. You think the companies will spend less but I'm not sure why companies would scale back operations?
Hopefully people can cope with enough wind turbines that we reduce emissions before the climate storms destroy too much of our modern infrastructure.
If the economy is a car then people saving extra is the equivalent of hitting the brake pedal and people spending more is the equivalent of hitting the accelerator (or gas) pedal.
So the huge cash reserves of large companies are a brake on the economy which is why all the politicians are so keen to increase corporation tax /s
I wish that was the only thing wrong with that page
30 kph = 18.64 mph
20 mph = 32.19 kph
So safety rules around the world are based on arbitrary length systems. I'm all for lower speed limits for safety but I feel there is still things to be worked out in suburban settings where long arterial(?) roads carry large amounts of traffic in large cities.
Rephrase it and it becomes the start of a solution. What should happen in a patient doctor interaction where the doctor is not able to reassure a patient that the prescribed treatment plan is the best plan.
Your last sentence (minus the specific country) is exactly what I was talking about. There is no shortage of stories where doctors don't get it right for a million reasons. There is room for improvement.
It's like that saying, "Capitalism: The worst economic system, except for all the others". Our medical system where we rely on individual doctors for primary care is really flawed but it's better than any alternatives that we have (or that we can afford anyway)
How about, "Top Quartile for software engineers in the UK market according to itjobswatch.co.uk"
Or, "Above average according to Glassdoor for San Portland, Georgia"
There are costs involved in appointments and filling prescriptions and you being trusted with an excess gives the system some flexibility that might avoid an extra appointment or visit to pharmacy.
Did it turn out ok?
Does anyone know if ingesting and excreting a (small) bullet is particularly unhealthy?
To answer your question the name is suitably cryptic and can be interpreted as referring to the artist not moving. It kind of pales compared to the my thoughts about the actual 6 hour performance which truthfully leaves me feeling a bit nauseous and disturbed
I'm not sure what to think about the fact that I would benefit from a couple of cameras in my fridge connected to an app that would remind me to buy X or Y and tell me that I defrosted something in the fridge three days ago and it's probably best to chuck it in the bin already.
