**ALL** 'studies' using college kids as the base are a sham unless it's specifically designed to test things impacting college kids. Even then, as the kid said "There were no repercussions. We knew [the guards] couldn't hurt us, they couldn't hit us. They were white college kids just like us, so it was a very safe situation,"
It's not like they check out their brains at the door and forget it's a friggin' experiment (unless the focus is on Social Studies types).
Every one of those can top greed and greed can top every one of those. All of them are just driving forces and any individual can succumb to too narrow a focus in life.
How much of that Moose do you use to feed your family.(?)
If it's like with deer around here, almost all of it. Steaks, burger and sausage. Bones and offal for the dogs. Hide sold for leather and antlers have various uses. Not much left.
Yeah... Now let's look at three dimensional proximity of the airplanes and the time necessary to be alerted and resume control. That, plus the flight plans that must be filed really fucks up your narrative, don't it?
This is really more of what has happened. Every niche industry has developed styles they prefer. In newsprint they favor one space and incredibly hacked down grammar. In law, not so much. In prose, it's far more fluid and depends on what the author was striving for.
Your title is ironic. As pointed out elsewhere, there has never been a 'standard'. You can find pdfs of old prints using every conceivable permutation of spacing and line justification, often within the same manuscript.
Double spaces after a period preceded the typewriter, so no, you are incorrect.
If you go back to typesetters, they don't use double space because they always had variable width letters (think Ben Franklin times). Double space in a book also ends up wasting paper.
Funny you should mention Benny boy. This is his autobiography (1868). In it, you will note that they typeset double spaces after the periods (check page 7).
This notion that every industry, every hobby, and every interest ought to be equally populated by women is perhaps the biggest error imaginable.
It's not an error. It's promoted exactly because "equally populate" will never occur and so the complaint industry will never die. Except through ridicule.
And I think you have a problem with "aspersion" and "assertion". Easy to throw around the word systematic. Remember that the assertion requires proof on the part of the asserter, not disproof by everyone else.
Could you pin point the times when electricians and plumbers were in low demand? I don't recall it in the last 60.
Ending up angry and bitter is not connected to being a tradesperson but rather connected to holding a specific political ideology ostensibly promoting *support* for said occupations.
but for whom management is closed due to lack of this qualification
Said as if that's a bad thing...
I worked IT for 35. Turned down several management positions not because I lacked a viable degree but because, fuck, why in hell do I want to do management?

Don't project your cultural norms onto others.

I guess it didn't make my 'give a shit'-dar.

That 'saving paper'? Many tomes were set left justified only. Adding an additional space after the period isn't going to alter the length.

Yeah. Try that with either a pdf or printed text. The world extends beyond your flat screen.
The size of the ant hills people are willing to die on over this topic is both amusing and amazing.
Hah! Not nearly as much as someone condemning someone else for the number of spaces they use.
Too bad. I write for myself and my reader(s), so the publisher doesn't change anything I do.
Also reminds me of something that happened to a friend doing his math thesis. Iff. The editor changed every occurrence to "if".
Single spacing came about to reduce space in printed matter so more could be done on less. It's archaic.
FFS. Just make it look attractive. If you prefer 1, use 1. If 2, use 2. Jeeezuz, this is much ado about nothing.
What are the parameters for determining if you must supply them with documentation and how are they triggered?
A blatant falsehood.
It's not an error. It's promoted exactly because "equally populate" will never occur and so the complaint industry will never die. Except through ridicule.
False dichotomy.
That is a big, juicy line of bullshit designed to never, ever be resolved because that would eliminate the complaint industry.
The straw is in the assertion that there's something systemic. Keeping it vague and sans examples is a tactic.
And I think you have a problem with "aspersion" and "assertion". Easy to throw around the word systematic. Remember that the assertion requires proof on the part of the asserter, not disproof by everyone else.
Bullshit. An assertion on your part is meaningless. Provide some proof instead of signaling.
College degrees are for the bulk of those obtaining them, utterly worthless, except that some jobs require them for no functional reason.
