It's interesting to try to get into the minds of corporate executives. I wonder how many of them actually thought they'd company was going to last for decades. Or if they were just seeing themselves up a golden parachute for the inevitable.

What does a washing dishes hobby entail? Do you have like a personal best or a preferred strategy?

I respectfully disagree. If you want to compare orders of magnitude, you should use a logarithmic scale.

I like the constitution because I don't want Matt Gaetz to be able to propose whatever nonsense he wants. It's not a perfect document, but it enshrines certain fundamental protections that really shouldn't be fucked with.

That's pretty harsh. The idea of using AI to help digest more news more efficiently is not a bad one. My only criticism is that currently the product seems to take more away than it's adds in terms of formatting, consistency, and general presentation.

OP, ignore this person. Keep working on it, but don't spam your self promotion until you are confident that people will actually want to use this product over their current choices.

It would be the same for any self replicating thing. Bacteria, viruses, fungi, and prions, but they replicate. I will grant you a single large parasite could do this, but at that point, we're talking about tigers and such as a technicality as well.

None of the things you've listed here are single molecules except for the prion. A single cell, even for simple organisms, is made up of millions of proteins. Viruses come close, but are still made up of the nucleus and the capsid.

No it isn't. Reporting on allegations and other newsworthy topics is literally the joirnalists' jobs. They aren't liable for libel or slander as long as they are reporting in good faith. And almost by definition reporting on something someone else said is in good faith as long as you think that they think it's true.

Even that wouldn't stop a stubborn narcissist.

If your entire existence revolves around whining, I would prefer not to know about it, thanks.

Yes because a significant number of people who otherwise would have met and formed relationships didn't. If you didn't already live with someone then there was way less chance of being with someone during that time.

I would assume that during 2020 at the start of the pandemic the amount of pregnancies significantly decreased. So the question for me is: is the abortion rate cited the number of total abortions or the number of abortions per pregnancy?

It really depends where you live. Some places are very dusty, especially if it's generally dry and/or windy.
