    Take 1% of what you would pay the CEO, and use it to purchase a literal scapegoat. Ceremonially sacrifice as needed, and inject remaining funds directly into the accounts of these …

    I like that hypothesis. I have another one. They are removing variables from the environment. Any unfixed object in a high position can potentially lead to a fall if they try to wa…

    Very similar situation for me. I've been diagnosed with chronic migraine. I always had it to some degree, but the last few years have been worse. The most consistent trigger is wor…

    Back around 2008, I recall having problems because my Australian cards would be prompted for a 5-digit zip code. It only happened at gas stations for some reason. The closest we ha…

    I think that's more due to GPT's need to please, so if you ask it to make sense of something it will assume there is some underlying sense to it, rather than say it's unparsable gi…

    They have the right idea with the theory, but there's some nuance in proper execution. If I learned anything from photography, it's that the best adjustments are barely on the edge…

    It looks like it's treating the deer and wall as the same subject, averaging the texture, and applying it to both.

    It's not about what they can do two years later. The job is a reward for services rendered while in government.

    I don't believe that's the case for the orcas in the article. I used to live in Eden, and they have a legendary reputation there, going back well into pre-colonial history. Killing…

    I can't think of any situations where a roundabout isn't preferable to a two way stop, if space allows for the installation. In my opinion they're often safer than traffic lights t…

    In my Australian experience, yes we have a gender gap in earnings, but couples still tend to be from the same socioeconomic circles.

    That would be great to see. Let the DOM focus on being a good Document Object Model.

    That was about the time they removed the scale, right?

    I assumed everyone can see visual noise too, based on my photography experience. Why wouldn't eyes get grain like film or a sensor does? I can see it under most conditions so maybe…

    Big subreddits are the worst for this. People will repeat poor quality comments they've seen upvoted in other posts because they know it will be upvoted by others who recognise it.…

    Great timing with this! My workplace does a charity pushup challenge every year, and I usually create a team for people looking for alternative exercises. I was considering yoga fo…

    Not hunting, but it matches my experience with wildlife photography. I can spend hours carefully stalking animals because it feeds my dopamine imbalance. My distractions aren't ran…

    The import could have something to do with it. When I started using Spotify I used a playlist importer that included many false positives when it couldn't find a particular song. I…

    I'm not in the US so rules are different here, but that's somewhat the situation for me as my mother's "landlord". My mum also insists on paying so she can feel at least some owner…

    From my own experience, I have done it with and without the purge. It did feel like it accelerated the process, but not so much that it made a difference overall. I have heard peop…

    The most effective technique I have used is also the simplest. I came across it reading about how trauma affects the body. Under stress we tend to exhale more forcefully in short o…

    This is a common story for people with ADHD. If caffeine can be treated as a medication and you are mindful of timing and doses, I don't see why it shouldn't be an option.

    When you need to do anything actually useful in these apps they typically send you to a browser anyway. Or worse, you have to do so yourself because you discover something isn't fu…
