They don’t have boats and really don’t care for going to the beach.

Common courtesy is to not even link to paywalled articles… The publisher has already made it clear they are not interested in public awareness of their content.

Good news everyone! We all DO have this problem… It’s just most obvious in China because they industrialized and urbanized more rapidly than anyone else AND had this stupid legal policy.

Industrialization, urbanization and improving healthcare also significantly drops births, to below the replacement rate of 2.1. The whole world is on this path, with China, Japan, South Korea, Germany and Russia leading the way.

Watched it live and I kept waiting for him to yell “Get off my lawn!”

I’m a technical writer (aircraft maintenance and flight operations manuals, mostly) and eliminating ambiguity is key to clear, effective communication.

Leaving out that comma takes a sentence with only one possible interpretation and gives it several options instead.

Didn’t they find parts from an Electra in the surf on the edge of a South Pacific atoll several years ago, with no other Electra ever reported lost in the area, and signs of decades old brief human habitation on the island?

I’m honestly surprised that the US cares about it… There’s near zero economic or strategic concerns left in that region for the US.

This is not actually setting a precedent… This determination was made numerous times before without convictions, mostly in the aftermath of the Civil War. The precedent of a conviction or even a formal charge being unnecessary is long-standing.

It’s not enough to just own a rocket company… the rocket company also needs to have rockets.

Travel between worksites is on the clock.

We’ve demonstrated for years now that home is a worksite.

I’m happy to drive in to the company office from my personal office, so long as my commute time is on the clock.

Eroding that boundary can also be in your favor… I can step away from the desk for a few minutes to start my laundry, prep something for dinner, or even just go to the grocery store during “lunch” because I can bring the food straight back home since I’m not far from home at an office.

To real hell? Or made-up hell?

Brave essentially has done this all along.

I wonder if they started eating something else.

I am Spez’s raging bile duct.

Could be worse… AIG

Not being allowed to defend yourself until the intruder finishes breaking in to your home and attacks you simply means self-defense isn’t allowed, because at that point you’re probably already dead.

When you choose to get drunk, you’ve also agreed to accept the responsibility for your future drunken actions.

Also hard to shoot somebody breaking in to your home with violent intentions when you don’t have a gun.

And the only way to find out what the intruder’s intentions are is to wait until it’s potentially too late to defend yourself.
