AI will create more problems to solve, because it will make it economically feasible to solve problems that were not "worth" solving before.

You should check renters laws. You shouldn't have to be that cold and may have recourse with your landlord.

So it appears we have broken the back of inflation while retaining growth? At least for the moment?

If that's 3% YoY it may not be growth at all factoring in inflation.

Reply to doomsday clock real or fake? by Ludwik2006
I mean, by definition it's "fake". There is no way to calculate or measure ETA of doomsday, if you could even define it adequately (which I suspect you cannot).

The tolls should be on the boats using the canal IMO. They are the reason we have this mess in the first place.

Let's just put a toll on the boats that use the canal. They can pay for the fucking bridges, it's their fault anyways.

No that's the islands (aside from the beaches anyway). Cape is kinda trashy in comparison. (Sorry)

Reply to We are the Brown University Nicotine Working Group. We study the causes, consequences, and treatments of nicotine and tobacco use. We're here to answer questions about anything we have the knowledge to answer related to tobacco use, ask us anything! by BrownNWG
I've found that nicotine patches provide a kind of topical anti-inflammatory function. I use them on my knee when it gets sore and it works like a charm.
Is there any evidence that would support this concept?

Reply to Did decentralization hit a plateau? by quaintSloe
Very few use cases. Authorities are useful, and trust is required for business interop regardless. Just because info hits the blockchain, that doesn't mean it's accurate.
So much of the promise here was sold by charlatans exploiting people's lack of knowledge re: crypto and the fact that people don't like to look stupid, so they pretend to understand and perpetuate the cycle of stupidity.

This is just the authors showing off technical chops. I don't see this being commercialized as we have easier ways, with cameras, to accomplish the same thing.

Yeah... it's not like having a crumple zone, longer wheelbase, and additional storage is a downside, and aerodynamically I'm guessing it's also a plus. No reason to get rid of the front, and plenty of benefits.

Lots of info here, sorry I don't have time to filter through to find my exact point but you can read various meta analyses and get the idea - Head start benefits some but negatively impacts others:

Reply to help!!! public school navigation by peanutbuttercandy8
Head start is good for when both parents and grandparents are unavailable to care for the child. In that case it's been shown to provide better outcomes.
But... if there's an opportunity for a parent or other family caregiver to be around, studies have shown that head start provides worse outcomes long term.
Just wanted you to be aware OP. Others here are answering your main question pretty well...

"virtual verifies" means "virtual verification", meaning they take pictures of the filled Rx and a pharmacist verifies based on that, likely working at a computer terminal far away in an office or at home.
