This was one of the reasons I hated my work IPhone.

Sooooooo many updates.

Apologists will say it's fir new features and security, but it was just an annoyance. I don't even notice if my pixel gets updated.


I'm surprised this hasn't happened yet.

Also there's an issue that bots are detected easily.


That's because Chrome banned it.


I wish everyone could try stay at home parenting. It made me hate it.

I like my kid significantly more now that I see him evenings and weekends.


Here's a more nuanced view: both partners in a marriage should try both full time work and full time parenting. Then both partners will better understand the choices they make and have empathy for the other's situation.

This is lived experience.


You know what is unnecessary material harvesting? Having coffee.

But I suppose a disposable filter is slightly more.


This is one of those, leave it to the professionals moments.

There are tons of types of glue, think of super glue being a weak form of glue compared to alternatives (TDI + polyol)


I've done something similar.

Various shades of technical. Textbooks, science books, history books, nonfiction written like novels.

Sometimes I have multiple of each category depending on my mood.


Apple bug- it's not really a bug

I have encountered this mentality often. I'm not sure if Apple users have so many bugs that they are used to it, or if it's part of the fanaticism.

I had so many bugs on iphone 6 I was baffled because the marketing "It just works". Upon voicing my issues, I was told from numerous people, "it's probably just doing X,Y,Z". Like that's an acceptable reason for bugs.


> or if it's part of the fanaticism.

Thanks for the insult.

I'm not an "Apple fanatic," but I do develop for the platform.

I don't rail against other platforms (I spent 25 years, managing a cross-platform team), and I would suggest that you may be doing yourself a real disservice by writing off an extremely lucrative venue.

I do support you, however, in demonstrating a commitment to your principles, by ignoring and insulting a gigantic swath of monied customers.


The epidural costs $6000. A 10 minute procedure.

I saw my wife before and after an Epidural so I could not dispute it's effectiveness.

But I generally can't see a reason why we need to spend 12 years in school to learn how various needles and rules of thumbs work.

Only the US has such an education burden, and only does the US have such a strong physician cartel to mandate it..

Edit, and even with midwives you will be hitting max out of pocket with 1 night stay.


The training length for physicians is pretty much the same in all countries. In the US to become an anesthesiologist: 4 years undergrad, 4 years medical school, 4 years residency. Total: 12 years. In the UK to become an anesthesiologist: 6 years medical school, 2-3 years of general postgraduate training, 5 years specialty training. Total 13-14 years. Why did you not look this simple fact up before saying it authoritatively on here?

There's more to it than you think, and it's easy to think that it's a simple procedure whenever you don't know what can go wrong, why things can go wrong, and how to fix things if it does go wrong.

Also, the doctor isn't why it's expensive. Doctors don't set the prices, hospitals and health insurance companies do.


Not sure if https://efficiencyiseverything.com/

Counts because he hires data collectors, but it's one of the most life changing websites I've ever visited.


Reminds me of the 2008 housing crisis. The regulators have to be right and Cornwell are just a bunch of kids.

Also it's important to remember that Physicians are the mechanics of the healthcare industry.

Scientists are the ones that advance healthcare.
