Another commenter below posted this map: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/antibiotic-usage-in-lives...

Assuming the data is accurate, it would seem antibiotic use (not sure how that compares with antimicrobials in general) is not particularly low compare to other countries.

Not being based on chance doesn't mean there's no element of chance.

If you have no skill or training in chess, there's basically zero chance of you winning.

Is this its final form? The rudder and horizontal stabilisers seem to form a right angle. I thought that was a big no-no in stealth.

Add Australia to that list

> Micro-led seems to me to be one of those technologies that's always just around the corner.

You can actually buy a MicroLED TV today, but they're huge and expensive:

I've tried the online versions, and they're not even close to being a replacement for the proper desktop applications.

> LoDuca filed an affidavit on April 25 in which he swore to the authenticity of the fake cases

From the document another commenter linked above, it seems that affidavit is also dodgy:

"The April 25 affidavit was filled in response to the Orders of April 11 and 12, 2023, but is sworn to before a Notary Public on the 25th of January 2023."

> And is the plane really only 99 inches long?

I'm guessing it should read 99ft 7in. That would put it at just over 3m, which still seems pretty small to me.

I always found there to be much less overhead and dead-time for remote meetings. Mainly due to the fact that you don't have to find a free meeting room, and then having to move between them.

I and the people I work with also like to organise meetings back to back. We spend our mornings getting through all our meetings by 11am, and then we've got the whole day to get work done without any interruptions.

> putting in the effort to be available as the manager

Except that the parent commenter is expecting others to be available to them without regards to other people's working patterns.

> In an office I can walk around the block with you and chat. In a remote setting I have to schedule some time

This is exactly what I love about remote work.

Being able to schedule activities ahead of time and avoid my flow being interrupted makes me so much more productive.

> self noise: 14 dBA

That's really not very good, especially for the price they're charging. I'm starting to sense a theme.

Yes, the shifting pattern is exactly the same.

What is it with IBM and payroll systems. They botched another one here in Australia: https://spectrum.ieee.org/ibm-sued-over-queensland-health-pa...

Keep in my that a manager made that decision, not one of the engineers doing the hands-on work.

Quite likely due to Islamic aniconism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniconism_in_Islam
