Because drinking causes more problems than it solves.

By these downvotes I'd guess a lot of you like drinking, huh. Never thought I'd struck your cord.

That's great news actually, and I hope scientist will keep studying this topic. We need less drinkers, not more, even if the dosage is moderate.

Horrible landing page. No information about what/why/how whatsoever.

Yet people complain about Emacs' shortcuts sigh.

Does it have categories/labels? Priorities? There absolutely needs to be a features list on the homepage.

> First of all, education is obligatory until one is 18 years old in Poland.

I was about to point out your mistake, but decided to actually check that fact, and you're absolutely right.

> There is no such thing as dropping out of school before that age.

I must have slipped through the government's fingers. I'm not sure if it's a bad or a good thing.

>There is a core of very serious cases, like schizophrenia and some bipolar sufferers, but those are not mental illnesses, they are physical ailments with psychological symptoms. Purely mental illnesses have no scientific explanation, no reliable diagnostic criteria, and no treatments -- which is why the DSM is being abandoned.

What about depression? OCD? Anxieties? Are they "physical ailments with psychological symptoms"?

Some time ago I used it to quickly change my layout from qwerty to colemak, and often it couldn't keep up with my speed (and I'm an average typist: ca. 65 WPM), which resulted in wrong order of characters. I tried both interpreted and compiled version - no difference. It wasn't a beefy machine, though, so with your i5s and 8 gigs it may work well ;-).

I'm wondering if your reading comprehension is really that bad or there's something else going on with you.

> Work the amount of hours you agreed to with your employer

I was wondering: are there any firms that don't set strict number of hours one have to work? How many of them is like that?
