Don't count other nations the way you do the US, and don't compare the behaviour of troops defending some piece of jungle on the other side of the planet with those defending their…

tell that to the medical typing pool that no longer exists.

How's that working for you at the moment? Sorry for the snide comment, but considering the last 6 - 8 months in the US, at least from what is being reported in the outside world, t…

This does depend on what the engineers are being employed to do.. Are they there to be communication and documentation experts, or are they there to turn requirements into somethin…

This raises so many questions. I'd be interested in how many people in the study from each group die off during the study... is there a larger number of people in the unmarried gro…

It's no wonder that kids are so stressed/anxious these days, seems not even their school classes are certain.

When the obvious desire of 90% of customer support is to make the customer go away being able to use a box rather than a person to get rid of them seems a perfect solution. Support…

Like, pretty much 90% of any space based things from science fiction. Imagine if what you put in orbit (or indeed into deep space) was limited by your imagination, not by the very …

I love that they are deliberately tempting failures with the no and thin tiles. In a lot of ways they will learn far more from the heat shield burn through around the flap(s) than …

>> - Animals are not your friends. Research in advance what animals to expect wherever you're going, and what precautions to take. Camping in bear country is different than camping…

Rule #1... Tell somebody reliable where you are going and when to expect you back and who to call if you don't come back. (Could be local police, park ranger etc depending on where…

I've got to ask the stupid question... Why do EV's need lots of electronics? the only required controls I can think of are: - Charge control, - Power control - accelerator and rege…

I think so. Seems so many people want a "how to" on every aspect of their lives. Friendship should not be something you try to design or have a strategy for, I can think of nothing…

I don't see those things any more even when they do pop up. It's amazing how quickly you get trained to simply ignore advertising.

I'm not sure why there is a stigma to deciding to not have kids. It's not as if your decision is going to have much impact on anybody except yourself or the potential grandparents …

Our experience is that after 2+ years of working mostly remotely, that very few people use web cams in meetings, and then only for the initial introduction. Apart from giving ammun…

On weekends I kick back and do whatever I feel like. Time to recover, not to drain the bucket even more.

Cats can live happy lives inside, they just need a bit of attention. Ours get a couple of hours supervised outside time whilst on long leads. They can and do carry out hunting beha…

They already come in a variety of colours...
