iOS making a random app on my phone the default ‘Open with’ in Files instead of opening quickly in Preview.

Recently was trying to open images in Files and it kept opening in my Canon print app. Thought it was a glitch so I just deleted the Canon print app.

Tried opening the file again and it opened in Copilot. Figured out I had to change ‘open with’ to Preview. Copilot is still set as the default. I’m sure I can change it somewhere but why is that the default in the first place?

Maybe Color Health? They’re clinical and HIPAA compliant but you’ll need to read their policies for the details.

Totally onboard with improving driver education, however, American public transportation infrastructure needs to be improved first.

This is because the United States is very car-centric and not being able to drive can limit your opportunities greatly. I’m all for setting the bar higher to get a drivers license but there needs to be alternatives put in place first.

For example, a person who grows up in a poor neighborhood has less access to opportunities and if they can’t drive, their opportunities are vastly limited even more because of how spread out things are especially in a lot of poor neighborhoods. They would also have trouble doing things like getting groceries, picking up kids from school, etc.

Thank you. Any recommendations on readings or courses for formal logic?

Thank you and heeding the warning.

This is helpful insight. Thank you.

Counter-service tipping is the most confusing to me. What service am I tipping for? And if I don’t tip, will my food be worse or take longer? Tipping before receiving any service or no service at all feels like bribing.

That companies do what’s best for the business, not for the employees.

It’s up to you to do what’s best for yourself.

+1 ace and tate. I got my glasses there for around 160, costed extra for me cuz I needed the thinner lens. You can get cheaper glasses though depending on the style.

Life is much better when you’re good at relaxing.

I grew up poor, with uneducated parents who could hardly speak English. My parents depended on me a lot. Growing up poor gave me independence and growth. Resilience learned from struggles. Opportunities to make my own decisions and mistakes. My parents couldn’t tell me what to do or give advice because they just didn’t know how to grow up and be successful in the US. So it was up to me to make my own life decisions. I’m a late bloomer, but I’ve obtained a lot of life lessons along the way.

A way I see to teach kids this lesson without the struggles of being poor is to give them some autonomy and the mental tools to push through their failures.

Best interview was:

- technical questions were all async via email and the application

- typical interview questions were mostly async via email

- all interviews were culture fit

- I was informed of deadlines and next step at every step of the way

- The interviews were conversations

Interesting. I’ve had thousands of dollars in fraud within the span of a few months with Ally cards that I’ve never even activated.

A few years ago my mom was almost dying. Now she’s healthy and energetic.

The things that I’ve noticed made the biggest visible difference:

- Going to the doctors to take care of any diseases that supplements can’t fix.

- Daily exercise at home.

- Weekly physical therapy (this helps a lot with helping her be social and interact with others).

- Staying at a good weight.

- Having a hobby that gets her outside and active.

- Sleep.

I had an accent because English wasn’t my first language despite being born and growing up in the US. I had to take ‘English as a second language’ courses and was bullied through school. I was also scared to talk for my first two years in elementary school.

Though my experience may be vastly outdated. And it all depends on your environment. What kind of school would your child go to? Would it be a diverse school? Are kids more exposed to things now, so that accents won’t be so much of a big deal?

Either way, I think it would benefit to try and correct your kid’s accent. It would help them with pronunciation and help others understand them better. It may help them feel more confident in speaking.

They also create blind spots for other drivers. I’ve noticed this when turning left and a huge truck or SUV is on the other side, it’s hard to tell if there’s a car coming because they’re blocking part of the view.

There’s a lot of good advice here. Though I’ve learned from doing many years in daily support that you reach a point where you just need to stop doing support. For me, that was when it took a toll on my mental health and too much effort to protect my mental health. It was when I couldn’t easily empathize with customers anymore. Killing someone with kindness works, though customer support abuse begins to take a toll no matter how much of these strategies you employ.

Thanks! I would’ve liked to see this up front before filling out a really long survey so I could see if it’s something I can budget for after the free trial.

It’s not a cop out, it’s part of the variety of problems. Environment design can encourage certain habits and lifestyles. I agree that living an extreme life of abundance is also part of the problem. Though it’s definitely not the only cause.

I grew up in a bad neighborhood in the US and this is what it meant for us: hearing gun shots every other night, experiencing drive by’s at school, frequent helicopters looking for someone, swat team locking down our neighborhood and evacuating everyone, break-ins multiple times, being threatened at knife point by a random stranger, people putting our dumpsters on fire. Lack of opportunity because everyone around us is poor and in the same situation. No sidewalks, roads in bad condition, shitty schools.

We weren’t part of the problem, we were just kids. But it’s easy to get pulled in when you grow up like that. There’s a big difference between visiting or driving through and growing up in such a place where you feel like you always had to watch your back. Because you spend more time in such a place, it increases your chances of bad things happening.

But it also meant, playing around the streets with the neighborhood kids, great food, neighbors giving each other things like food and essentials, a sort of camaraderie that we had each other’s back. Not everything was bad. However, you never feel truly safe.

Having a car is awesome also when you need it, like going grocery shopping in the rain. But having to depend on a car with no other reasonable options really sucks.

Exactly. Environment design can alter behaviors. If there’s a grocery store near me but no sidewalks, I have to cross a huge intersection, and there’s sketchy spaces — that’s not a good pedestrian experience at all.

When I lived in a more car-centric city in the US, I used to get honked at while walking. It was a thing in this city to honk and/or yell at pedestrians. I’m not sure what the thinking behind that sort of behavior is.

A majority of infrastructure in the US makes it extremely hard to be healthy. Activity and healthy foods isn’t integrated into daily life. For example, you can’t just walk to the grocery store or other things in most places. And if you live in a bad neighborhood, you can’t feel safe going walking or running. Living in a walkable, safe, and nice area is out of reach for a lot of people. This makes it hard for people when activity isn’t the default.

I had two breakdowns from burn out. Burn out was a culture at my previous company. I stopped working for about 8 months, left the industry, and got a new job in a new industry and new role. It took a while for the feelings of anxiety and incompetence if I wasn’t working to burn out to go away.
