Hard disagree. What did he do about student debt? Asked Congress to act, told the vocal left that he didn't know if using executive orders to forgive debt would hold water, after Congress failed to act he did use executive orders, and was halted by scotus. He also directed the department of education to forgive loans in large traunches for special cases that could be forgiven.
Abortion? He directed the executive branch to broaden access to medicines to induce abortions, protect access to annoying through Medicare, and specifically directed the HHD to make sure mifepristone was widely available.
I mean, it is easy to cherry pick individual actions and paint with a broad brush. I certainly don't like everything Biden has done, but to blame him for what the Republican states are doing to trans rights, abortion, and student debt is just ignoring the limitations of the office. He's president of the federal executive, not a monarch.

Obviously the more you can but in bulk the cheaper it gets per person.
I don't know where op is from but a lot of states, especially in the western US require invasive species tags on any craft over a certain length, like 10 ft. Some also require state registration decals. Idaho is an example of one that takes the invasive species decals and water craft checkpoints very seriously.
I used to do some freelance work years ago and I had a number of customers who operated assembly lines. I specialized in emergency database restoration, and the assembly line folks were my favorite customers. They know how much it costs them for every hour of downtime, and never balked at my rates and minimums.
The majority of the time the outages were due to failure to follow basic maintenance, and log files eating up storage space was a common culprit.
So yes, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the problem was something called out by the local IT, but were overruled for one reason or another.
Host requirements start on the bottom of page 16. The requirements boil down to posting a fire exit diagram of the unit, keeping records, and not violating building or fire codes. Nothing in there that really seems that onerous, and is stuff that obviously protects the guests.
They are trying to address housing shortages. The hotels might benefit, but so does everyone else because it effectively bars commercial operation of AirBnB. No landlords with 50 units etc.
I don't know if it will help you, but I worked to develop the habit of putting everything i need to do on a calendar and then doing what my calendar tells me. So if I want to get a paper or a presentation made the next morning, I will put it on my calendar with a realistic time block like 9-11. In the morning my routine is get up, bathroom, vitamins, hair, exercise routine (walking or short exercise routine from my phone app), coffee. Critically, I don't have the coffee until it is time to sit down and work, so I sit down to my with with the French press and start working. That usually sets me up for a good productive morning.
I think most people drink too much coffee, which leads to tiredness, crashing, and dependency. Once I started thinking in terms of servings of caffeine instead of cups of coffee, I found a good balance that let's me enjoy coffee without needing it every morning or afternoon crashes. At home I make a French press using 2tbsp of coffee beans. When I get a coffee while out, I opt for an Americano with two shots. Both of which should be about 120mg of caffeine (give or take).
Most people drink 12-16 ounces of coffee as their morning "cup" which is more like 150-200 mg of caffeine. Often more, and often followed up with a cup later in the day or a caffeinated soda or tea.
Ymmv, but I've enjoyed being able to have coffee in my routine once I found a way to manage the amount of caffeine.
The titles sounds like research for BuzzFeed articles. "The ten movies that hook you from the beginning" etc. Wouldn't surprise me if the posts are just lazy article farms.
Just moved into a house with ac for the first time and it is well insulated and lots of shade from trees. At night before bed I set it to 68, and in the morning I set it to 74. Even when we had 100 degree days it never got above 73 inside, so basically I only run the AC at night.
I'm sure you mean all the heights are a little different, but I'm envisioning where every step has to be taller than the previous one and the shenanery that would happen to make long stair cases navigable. Start with teeny tiny steps to end with uncomfortably large ones.
These sort of thought experiments are helpful to drive home the point that in creating public policy, sometimes you do need a way to quantify the value of human life, which gets to the ugly truth that we do value lives differently everyday in society. ER triage will save the sickest person first, all else being equal. But when things get swamped children often get prioritized up. We value young life more. The trolley problem forces the concept of assigning value to life and taking action based on that.
This second problem doesn't do so as cleanly. In my opinion, the right answer is to let them riot, but also alert the police and seek to mitigate the harm they cause. This problem feels less about the quantification of human life than about moral culpability of actions. The trolley is acting as it must die to physics. It isn't good or evil and has no agency. On the second problem, the rioters have agency, are choosing to do evil, and should be fought against.
I would suggest finding a book on a similar topic that is better, and just mention the other book to your boss, saying you think this other treatment of the material was better organized or something innocuous. You might get your boss to read the better book which could improve things at work. 🙂
They had a bug where if you were denied it was supposed to send a notification with a link allowing you to elaborate, but those notices didn't go out. Then, when you've applied but gotten stuck in the unapproved state, your user account exists but is disabled, this you can't make a new account with that same name. Sort of a sucky situation all around.
Lol, you are right but I like the kind of weird the typo brings to the recipe. 😂
