In my experience there are several ways to look at it. One is the very basic unspoken rule that many feel that you taking time off puts your work on someone else's shoulders, so don't do that. I have also heard the phrase: If we can survive without you for X days, we can survive without you. So taking a proper vacation is not felt to be attainable. Then there is the whole, I gotta get ahead in my work to prevent the feeling of being a burden to others and catching up on voicemails and emails during the trip and then spending the long hours once back to catch up to all the things you missed etc.

It's first to file now. Imagine front running patents! Or granting every application and preventing the throwing out of bad ones. Bend the knee and pay your tithe or be buried in lawsuits.

I'm always wondering about thoughts like this. Although there are likely a humongous amounts of low end devices, as a whole, how much potential return would you get from this group? This is a value judgment and I know many have low end devices for reasons other than monetary and just completely ignoring quantity may not be viable for certain investments, its just an interesting thing. It might be similar to the debate about the cost of handling credit cards vs cash. Cash has its own set of costs that are usually neglected. You could easily get more return by adding features than spending any time optimizing.

A lot of interesting information is not what I think many people really want. They don't seem to want the mundane facts, they don't seem to care about other countries, they seem to want to find salacious details that confirm conspiracy theories, details that would make headlines and be able to use for clickbait titles to further engagement. Having to trawl through lots of data to find anything of use is beyond most peoples attention span in my experience.

A US president has some authority granted by congress to enact Tariffs. Donald Trump doesn't like being told no. Donald Trump is also very transactional. Ergo, he can implement them and then tell the entities under the tariffs he can make them go away if they give him what he wants.

Having opportunities to change things after being voted out seems to be a bad oversight to me. The difference is time and effort. If the outgoing administration doesn't do anything else, you can already setup your agenda and timelines for things you want to accomplish, tossing stuff in can derail your agenda and/or timing. The outgoing president is still president until the incoming one is sworn in though, so that is what you deal with.

I'd wager shoulder surfing was never that likely, but it is much less likely today and much harder. However, high def recording is much more prevalent these days. The one thing I like that some password forms have started doing is obscure the username. Usually the first time you enter it, its plausible to grab, but subsequent entries, only grabbing the password, if it is at all feasible, isn't as useful without the username.

The main concern I see with "technologic" wombs is who is then responsible for the upbringing and care of the fetus until it because viable to live on its own? If someone gives up a fetus but is still force to be financially responsible for it, more harmful and destructive forms abortion will be, by necessity, be used.

I would love to see all those things myself. Part of my job this past week was inquiring with local jurisdictions about utilities to request utility atlases and other existing condition reports. Unfortunately, this info can be hard to find, inaccurate and inaccessible. There are many pros and cons for showing/hiding utility data etc. <p> If you're interested in getting started with roads, Local GIS shapefiles and tiger databases can be found for much of the US. Not too familiar globally. <p> Downloading a database from the following site and opening with QGIS or similar might be something to start with: https://www.census.gov/geographies/mapping-files/time-series...

If the series of events was: They wanted Scar Jo, she said no. They found someone similar. That would be the end of the story. The question then was, why did they reach out to her again immediately before putting it out there? That seems pretty strange to me.

A blanket cutoff is ill advised in my opinion. I think it has to depend on the intent behind the phone call. For instance, I got a robocall from the water department monday saying there is a boil advisory in effect due to high water and sediment runoff due to weather. Having enough people for the once in 10 years where ythey needed that many doesn't seem necessary. And once you get into intent sadly, all bets are off.

I can imagine if it hasn't happened yet, it will happen soon enough where QR code menus will be tailored to the person. Change the order of items and possibly even costs to try and drive the individual diner to choose the options that are better for the restaurant. Digital menus already offer many of these perks for the restaurant, and I suspect forcing around the margins can definitely make a difference at the expense of the customer.
