  • As an American, I already know the cost of this procedure is going to be in the millions. Insurance companies will moan and cry about experimental treatments not covered for at least a decade.

    Only the rich and powerful will be paying out of pocket to extend their lives with genetically modified pig hearts.

  • Very good news. Tired of giving money to the tax prep vampires. But initial roll out is for simple tax situations (W-2 and deducting student loan interest).

    Why can’t this program also apply to selling of stocks/options as well? This information is already furnished to the IRS

  • if you live in a food desert where the only options for food are the gas station or the dollar store. There’s often no choice.

    Lifestyle can play a role in being healthy but choice of good food is the catalyst for changing your lifestyle. The “ultra processed” garbage is cheap energy at best and has you continually reaching for that cheap energy and promoting a generally unhealthy/inactive lifestyle.

  • I think this assumes the restaurant is properly maintaining the ventilation system. I remember a couple of restaurants I worked at the grates were rarely changed out. The one time we did a proper cleaning the fucking things were caked with fat deposits and other crap. Took a power washer and some caustic industrial cleaner to get them to a decent state.

  • I wonder if the same levels of pollutants are found in restaurants. Most if not all restaurants use gas stoves. The ventilation systems are usually multiple orders of magnitude better than what a typical household would have available.

    Having worked in a few restaurants, the vent systems are usually placed above the stoves but the vent itself is kind of high up. It’s definitely capturing the fumes from the cooking process itself, but not clear if it’s also capturing the pollutants from the stove while it’s on.

    There definitely has to be some spillage into the kitchen. More than using a laboratory grade ventilation hood but less than the typical gas stove in a typical household.

  • Health insurance companies probably finding some obscure study to deny claims for Paxlovid. Or just follow UHC claim practices. Deny all claims initially. Slow roll it.

    Patient either gives up or pays out of pocket.
