Unless she forced the infant to run themselves, taking them on a run sounds like good parenting.

My line for this topic depends on familiarity. If you see the baby once a week or more, kiss the stinker if you want to. Otherwise, don't.

That line exists somewhere for everyone, no one would suggest that a mother shouldn't kiss her child.

I live in a US state that has at-will employment.

I once had an owner of a small business threaten to sue me for quitting because it would cause financial harm to the business. And that was with giving 4 weeks notice.

At-will employment laws protect employees that want to quit, not just employers that want to fire.

As a skinny guy in the US, is there a way that I can get an GLP-1 prescription?

I want to see if it will decrease compulsions - substance use and trichotillomania.

I think it's to add logic to an existing COTS device.

Say you have a widget that both writes log files to an SD and reads a command script from that SD. With this FPGA card, you could implement logic that changes the command script based on the content of the logs.

Don't sit on the toilet. Period.

Resting squats fixed my knees.

Anyone anywhere in the world can pay money to steal some of your attention.

Until that changes, we'll continue to decrease the duty cycle of personal agency in our lives.

So it's not hate speech if it's written by an LLM?

There's legal precedent to hold accountable people that encourage others to kill themselves.

A live frozen frog has ice around it's cells. Inside the cells remains liquid because of extra glucose acting as anti-freeze.

A dead frozen frog will be frozen completely, with all the cells having ruptured walls from their insides freezing.

What about increasing the supply of doctors rather than decreasing the time they spend with patients?

I question the underlying premise that efficiency needs to increase.

That'll happen with self driving cars. It'll be interesting to see whether pedestrian or occupants are considered more valuable.

The logo is amazing. It's only 3 simple shapes - circle, elipse, & triangle - yet it feels like a 3D mushroom.

There's cases where a peripheral could be a master.

The BLE wireless protocol separates roles into central/peripheral and server/client. Often, but not always, a peripheral is a server.
