The zeitgeist has pushed the idea carbs/grains and sugar are terrible over the last 40 years on and off, so that seems to say more about the medical industrial complex, than anything. That's fair, but if that message has been pushed so consistently, why didn't we see a real decrease in the consumption of those things and the associated weight loss?

I think you over estimate the liqour lobby and underestimate how much of alcohol profits likely come from luxury purchases

Wouldn't the side effects, combined by the accompanying lifestyle changes key to making this medication most effective, show its not a panacea or cure-all? The fact there are these second order effects with such incredible impacts would lead me to believe its more mechanistic than magical with how much obesity effects all sorts of body systems

The main factor that you fail to mention is living cost, and not the internet, which made it possible and desirable to frequently move in search of opportunity.

It didn't mean there weren't people that lived long-term in communities. However, it did mean that you could find more lucrative opportunities in different places while also affording to move and live there.

That began to slowly change in the 60's, beginning with the death of single occupancy residences and a lack of funding/investment in affordable housing for a significant portion of income brackets.

The last 30ish years helped cement that for lots of reasons, but the ability to work remotely via the internet isn't particularly new nor causative for that change.

Is that more Orwellian than say anti-theft camera systems or red light cameras at stoplights?

I mostly agree. However, I think it has more to do with the market power MS has across multiple domains.

106 users yet over 400k posts.. can anyone speak as to the quality and sources of most of that?

Additionally, I assume this was on the cellular network completely and not on the dispatcher/rf side of things?

Not necessarily. It provides for all sorts of encryption schemes, including none.

That and they're likely LMR not P25 being in the part of Europe they're in.

Any more specifics or a link to your site? Couldn't find anything with a few quick Google searches

Did you read the article?

That is not the case whatsoever... They labeled them all as containing whiskey but none of them did. Just whiskey flavorings.

The rational consumer should find this deceptive because it says it has one ingredient while not actually including that ingredient at all.

Definitely not, they just average your hours out so you're technically paid minimum wage for enough hours to cover those ones where you don't make anything.

~$60k for a specialized tool makes sense

However it's clear we are years and years of development away from this actually being relevant over conventional tools. It really seems like were just giving money to Microsoft for developing what will ultimately just be internal patents going towards consumer or business facing products in the nearer term.

Buzzwords or not, Chick-fil-A has an incredibly efficient setup that has really improved significantly in the last four years.

You either didn't get to the end of the article or really missed the author's entire point.

She doesn't remotely seek to conflate her brother's mental illness to climate change. She is simply juxtaposing a personal experience with her brother to a professional observation she has(and sources).

Moreover, you clearly didn't read the whole thing because your entire last paragraph is filled with points she made and addressed in relation to her thesis regarding memory, both ecologically and humanistically.
