    True but the list of reasons that allow you to fire someone without paying unemployment is limited. They're trying to avoid paying out unemployment by saying he failed to show up f…

    If anything those are good reasons to pursue increasing T levels without those side effects. This may be possible if the cause is environmental. The speed with which testosterone l…

    I can't answer for him, but typically it is 100mg/wk for testosterone replacement. This can be taken once a week. For body building administration is usually done twice weekly. The…

    My wants are inconvenient so roll over and die quietly? Doesn't sound attractive.

    At the end the article foists everything upon mental health treatment. I see no evidence that that will be enough. What if your life just sucks?[1] A therapist can't snap their fin…

    This is true, had to turn down various jobs in big cities due to very low pay. Guys looked like I'd just slapped them when I'd named my price (previously done fullstack).

    These projects are undertaken more for inspiration than synthesis of a design. It is unlikely something similar would have been drempt up, realty is more strange.

    Are there any places selling amplifiers? It seems to be a closely guarded secret (because unlicensed operators must be protected from themselves, I guess). I found some but they wo…

    SSRIs are typically described by psychiatrists to their patients as making them more likely to act. They do this by disrupting the decision making process so you can't talk yoursel…

    A relative of mine is on a very strong SSRI and stimulant combination; talking to them is almost impossible, they're constantly interjecting and changing the subject. They're a cok…

    The law is supposed to be relatable and human. It is already twisted enough as it is, I would hate to see it under that kind of system.

    Richard P. Bentall makes convincing argument that happiness is a psychiatric disorder.† Notably Caesar was said to prefer the company of fat men, with the implied causation that ha…

    Corruption is a moral issue that exists besides the law. If the payment occurring produces no net benefit then I see no reason to consider it just. These problems seem complex and …

    Ostensibly they should belong to the estate of the deceased. As it is now, in the US (as I understand it) organs and body tissue is in this weird limbo of not being considered prop…

    Seems like laws need to be drawn up to make this unprofitable. It should be easy enough to get out of paying people standing around not behaving in a "competent and workmanlike man…

    The non-existent X11 security model is irrelevant considering on most systems anything under a uid can debug something else under a uid. Wayland's security is entirely pointless. I…

    I don't think so. Buproprion is supposed to be the most side-effect free antidepressant yet it seems to have permanently messed up my sex drive. If I had the choice of the two I'd …

    What would convince you? It should be pretty clear at this juncture I don't have evidence. However I did give a reason; if in general depressed people feel they are not contributin…

    For a while, yes, but then they get over it. If the person would continue to be nonproductive (or in the situation being discussed -- feel they are being nonproductive) for years t…

    I think you are going in the right direction. Society needs to recognize that suicide must be some evolutionarily advantageous adaptation. Many people when pressed will say they th…

    So they prefer cost to security. That's fine, most people do. If being quantum resistant was a priority they would figure out a way to do it and it may be similar to what I describ…

    Yeah, I know all of this. Smart cards are kind of the exception because they aren't reprogrammable. But security costs money. As you've made it clear your business and customers pr…
