If anything, I believe women are more likely to be committed to a single employer than their male counterparts
As an aside, I wonder if this could have something to do with women making less, too. Switching jobs or employers tends to accelerate salary growth so if they aren't switching, they are probably only getting measely ~1%-3% increases each year, instead of the leaps you might get by leaving one company as a developer and joining another as an architect, for example. If women really do tend to stay at one company longer, this could be part of the issue.
It's strange to me that social media providers and users have gotten so riled up about net neutrality, yet it's like they're oblivious to how non-neutral their social media platforms of choice are.
What? Do you have any idea what net neutrality is? It has nothing to do with being neutral on the political spectrum, and everything to do with the internet not being owned by one entity or another.
This is already the case. The point they are making is that it charges faster, and the durability is the same as before. The summary clearly says it doesn't affect the cell's lifespan.
this doesn't seem to affect the cell's lifespan, with the team claiming that after 500 cycles, the enhanced battery still had a 78 percent charge retention
One of the few articles that are actually related to science. Not a clickbait headline... and there are no comments. I get that real science isn't "sexy" but it'd be nice to see a discussion about what this discovery could mean. What are the wild ideas for using lightning to create this isotope? What are the new possibilities? I imagine that we'll be able to generate them artificially, so what can be done with them? IANA Physicist but there used to be some here, and their comments were always welcomed and interesting.
Well, combustion powered cars, yes. And while a lot of this car driving should be replaced by walking, biking, or other human-powered means, we should continue working toward cleaner energy production to power the electric cars that replace the rest of them.
Companies aren't competing to build the best device anymore- they're competing to build the cheapest shittiest junk they can, and then they turn around and try to sell it for the highest possible price.
I laugh every time I see something like this. As though that hasn't *always* been the goal of for-profit companies...
You don't pay $60k for a pickup truck unless you're an idiot.
Unfortunately, there are millions of people in this country that fit that description. They have more money than sense, they buy these pickup trucks that can't even fit in a reasonable parking spot, then they complain that they work too hard for what they have, complain about OTHER PEOPLE acting entitled, and they vote for people like Trump...
Contrary to popular belief, Michigan is doing quite well. Flint & Detroit may have some issues, but the rest of the state has been pretty gangbusters since ~2009. Healthcare is one of the biggest industries now, not cars. Things change, and that's OK. Michigan's key industry in 1837 was farming and merchant trade due to ports on the great lakes. After that the copper industry took off due to the acquisition of the UP, and lumbering was an important industry all along. It wasn't until the early 20th century that car manufacturing took off. Industry constantly changes, and it's naive to expect to maintain the status quo forever.
Does it come with a quick-dial to the suicide hotline?
Joking aside, if you download an app and 'allow contacts' when it asks you, probably you should expect them to be grabbing your contacts and using them however they wish. The only surprise here is that people are surprised by this behavior.
If you make killer robots illegal, only criminals will have killer robots! Then, us law-abiding killer robot owners will be at a disadvantage in the streets!

Seriously, is there a point to this article?
I hear those run well as a Boromir cluster.
Cars are licensed, as are drivers, yet licensed drivers drive licensed cars into other cars all the time. Licensing won't fix that problem.
Most ancient astronaut theorists agree... BeauHD is an alien.

bold and italics do work here, just FYI.
Yup, we could be fair and drop ALL the subsidies, and see how it pans out -- but that would cause hysteria!

Seriously, so much nostalgia in the world today! I remember when people weren't so nostalgic.... ;-)

You're right! If we can't solve the whole problem, why solve any part of it? That's the way to success!

I suspect the GP is referring to the privacy topic, not the suicide hotline topic.

Out of mod points, but there is a ton of insight & truth in this post -- thanks, I'm there with you.
Now THERE is a conundrum.
If you make killer robots illegal, only criminals will have killer robots! Then, us law-abiding killer robot owners will be at a disadvantage in the streets!
For something that doesn't matter, there sure are a lot of comments -- especially highly rated comments representing the same side of the debate.
