Weed is not harmless. The question I always ponder is if it's more harmful than X. Alcohol, methamphetamines, etc.

Rescheduling is a start for more research into whether weed is causing these episodes or highlighting other underlying causes.

It seems like your friends arguement that it's legal for continued use is asinine. Plenty of prescription drugs are legal per se but would have adverse effects for some.

Just an aside, gym bros are one of the most friendly, educating bunch when it comes to new comers. Everyone starts somewhere (even the gym bros) and if you are willing to go and ask, they are likely willing to help you get started.

Start on the treadmill walking, lift the easy to learn machines, and stick to a routine. Diet is a great first start. Follow up with exercise. It'll help you keep the weight off and extend your life.

Keep at it.

Probably. For a game selling at 60$ assuming Nintendo took half and publisher took other half in profit, its 1.6%. Still significant as the publisher has other costs.

The article mentions that they convert to digital from the massive physical archive they have. I think it's a matter of turning those hundreds of thousands for records that they have into digital is a massive effort.

I can see why they dont save the physical copies, but I think the problem is physical record input rate > digitize rate leading to tons of inventory space.

Same here. We are also getting some performance gains on transaction processing and system.io stuff (10% or so) compared to windows.

Additionally, some of clients are linux and we have to ensure that our programs work flawlessly on it.

I agree that it shouldn't matter for lower paying jobs and those that don't need a non compete. For higher paying jobs, I think it's reasonable for a company to set a base pay or pre approval before having a second job.

It _should_ matter from a perspective of not paying enough money for an employee to meet basic needs and have enough discretionary spending to not need a 2nd job.

"Catholic Guilt" is a stereotype for a reason. The scare is: a) not going to church and being a social outcast, b) duty to go to church, to pray every day, or go to hell.

Is not limited to Catholicism but religion in general, but the stereotype is there for a reason. Maybe the teachings? Maybe anecdotally your group were outliers?

I think we got that point, just kinda focusing on your other since there is an entire fleet of ICE vehicles that are simply unavailable as an EV. My point was its conspiracy, not uninformed simply because they nutjob in the example never mentioned weight, never questioned why, and took EV = cancer as fact. It doesn't matter if EVs weigh 5x more or 5x less.

I agree, however, time is zero sum. In school, it's all a numbers game to A) pass and B) pass ahead of your peers. This is the similar to the work environment A) not get fired and B) appear better than your coworkers.

So while in an ideal situation, students would be learning the context of a historical event, dive deeper in a topic, to create a better, more informed knowledge, what's the point? Does knowing more about Plato help with Java 101 by a statistically significant margin?
