Men get raped too, it is not gendered issue! Nobody ever asked me for a consent.

Most Uber drivers did not "took a job". Uber drivers originally started as self-employed contractors. Part of that is ability to refuse some rides.

Most dog owners have no control over their animals. I have PTSD from dogs, if dog would touch me, I will go into panic attack, and it will not go well for anyone. It is question of safety.

So I have a question for you. As a driver, do I have a right to refuse a drive, if I am concerned that customer will start licking me?

I think differentiator will be in modularity and repairability. Like PC has independent parts (PSU, memory, ssd, graphic card), electric cars could be modular in the same way.

I believe low-cost "city shopping bag" is the future of electric cars and biggest market. And if some sort of modular platform emerges, it will dominate the market. It may even be required by law (like EU requires USB chargers on phones).

I am from EU, but I believe China, India, Russia markets are similar. Look at Dacia Spring or Citroen AMI for examples.

I tried to use MacOSX on my Dell XPS13. Installation was very difficult, driver support lacking and it often crashed. I find Linux much better.

It is the other way around, healthy men with increased life span are more likely to have a children.

Sick short malnourished male is less likely to find partner, let alone have a children.

Study also excludes divorced men who technically have children, but do not live with them. Divorce decreases life expectancy severely.

Brocoli, cauliflower, lettuce... all highly recommended by every book. You discover the need for fibers very fast when starting keto.

In west birth rate declines because people have more options and want to enjoy life. That was not my experience in Japan. They have rigid culture of corporations, education, hard labor and over achievement. Some people just do not like that. There is no communication, because society does not like conflict!

US politics is other extreme, there is no communication, because society loves conflict! It will get started whenever and wherever possible.

I read statistics where 40% of young people do not start family, do not date, and basically withdraw from society. In interviews they blame it on long working hours and rigid rules in society in general.

So maybe there is no conflict, but it is hardly functional.

I just had a job interview with Deliveroo. There is over 100 programmers in central office, they pay better than some banks. I dont think problem they solve is that difficult.

Are you sure that trend is towards more tolerance? New generations have less sex, are more conservative... And governments are less and less tolerant to anything "disrespectful".

Lysenko was scientist with stellar credibility, he was wrong, but that happens in science. Main problem was not "anti science", but turning science into religion. Unproven theories were implemented too fast, without enough tests and verifications.

My understanding is Zoom is a chinese company. Federal government under Trump was not ready for pandemic, it did not provide any infrastructure for remote learning or work from home. Instead you relied on free infrastructure provided by China. Federal government should pay to Zoom!!!

"good woman to start family with" does not reflect general quality of person. 70 years old could be amazing person, but not great bride.
