As an atheist I very rarely get an opportunity to say this, but if you’re doing a large scale software project in Ada, may god be with you.

When we’re doing medical monitoring of someone, we are pretty sure of what we’re looking at, just to be clear. There are definitive hormonal changes that can be observed as well as other symptoms, as you mention. It’s done particularly for people who are trying to get pregnant, and we extrapolate to the population scale using statistical analysis methods (adjusting for demographics and such).
And just to clarify, I’m not calling a failure to implant a miscarriage. I’m mixing it in with actual miscarriages in order to show that it’s ridiculous and that the “life begins at fertilization” crowd are as scientifically nonsensical as flat earthers. I am intentionally mixing them together, but wanted to be clear on that point.
I appreciate the input, but I doubt Koch or Soros are making big donations to Bernie, Warren, AOC, or the other pols I send a few bucks to.
Second, I do have plenty of money in my own investments at this point. That’s part of the reason I am making donations. I do end up sending more money to organizations like Planned Parenthood, HRC, the Trevor Project, and the Matthew Shepard fund. I also send money to the ACLU and EFF, among others.
I don’t entirely disagree with your main point, but there are local and national causes and politicians that can use financial support. Ideally we wouldn’t have to do it, but as things stand it’s not a terrible idea.
No! Bad European! Bad!
Hey Bernie - the MOTs still have your back. If you put on the parka and ask for more money, I’m good for a couple hundred. I’ve got Bernie tee shirts, Bernie posters, Bernie getting arrested, Bernie sticking up for the LGBT…
And, my hand to the god that I do not believe in, if and when I adopt a sphynx cat, he or she will be named Bernie.
Not all states support recalls. California kind of goes all in on the democracy thing with the ease of introducing ballot initiatives and recalls and such. It’s mostly fine, but it can also result in pretty stupid plays like this.
I will!
The arrival date is listed as “the Spring,” so I have little idea when to expect them. I’m in California and everything is in bloom already, so I can get them going whenever, and I grabbed a few so I can try them indoors and outdoors in different locations.
Also, since the majority of fertilizations don’t result in a viable pregnancy or birth, Alabama’s child mortality rate is about to go through the roof. I’m going off of memory here, but I think that there’s only about a 50% chance of a successful implantation and after that there’s an additional 25% chance of miscarriage. And because those figures correlate with things like income, education, and nutrition - I think you see where I’m going.
Oh, he could actually get in trouble for this one. He’s sort of tanked a big part of his reputation already through the Twitter disaster, the WV market leveling, the questions about reliability, robustness, and FSD, and the rolling disaster that is Cybertruck.
I don’t mean a “go to jail for treason” kind of trouble. I mean “Pay $500M and turn over full control of the government part of your network to the DoD” kind of trouble.
SpaceX lives almost entirely by eating the government cheese, right? They’re launching our satellites and I think they’re taking research funding. I read an article the other day that they’re losing a significant amount on every new private customer they add to the network.
I wonder how much of that bleeding is payed for by the governments paying to use their services, or outright bribe them.
We’re not talking about punishing people for voting for Bob Dole here.
In a number of states, you cannot run in the election as a third party candidate if you lost the primary for that state. I’m not sure how widespread that is, but it’s come up in several recent elections. I think they’re even called something like anti-spoiler rules.
I think there’s pollsters who are looking at three way races now (usually throwing in Kennedy), but I don’t know if they’ve been able to say whether he pulls more Trump or Biden voters yet.
Also, this is literally their job. The surprising bit would be if US intel services weren’t doing a thing about a Russian invasion of an independent European nation.
I mean, sure, if a Trumpist gets offended by it because they want the fascists to win, I get how they’d get in a bind, but other than electing Trump and making sure fascism becomes the rule of the day around the world, I’m not sure what they expect to expect.
