A lot of little things can add up to a lot but fly under the radar.

. She actually wrote down what her patients with good teeth were doing, what a novel concept!

I don't think you need to make it DLE exclusive. My dog gets fungal infections on his nose and this would probably help. Although TBH I haven't gone looking for solutions.

I do too, but realized i like ginger snaps, at least some varieties at least as well if not better.

There certainly is cleverness that is detrimental/too clever, but there's also cleverness that genuinely solves the problem better. And I'd agree that its frowned upon for as its not the status quo, unfortunately... Doesn't use the latest hot new thing or whatever.

I was wanting something similar to see the fall leaves in the mountains of NC. I wanted to pick roads at the appropriate elevation, where they are in peak, but google maps isn't really geared for that.

I don't think social media is inherently bad. For me, the measure is whether I'm wallowing in consuming rather than doing. Although, yes, it's easy to get lost in consuming, doing takes much more intent/attention.

Ecclesiastes would be an appropriate read.

Yes. The resulting LLM is much easier to find information than ever before. To me, that's an improvement on the source data, much like the hitchhiker's guide to the universe. If it results in breakthroughs especially in health, steal away baby.

I think that's generally true. However, I recall from college more than one backpack company would give you lifetime warranties. They realized that at like $30 (at the time), they don't mind sending you another one if you bothered to remember to do it as it probably costs them like $4 to make.

When Newman and his friend A.E. Hotchner launched the company in 1982, it started entirely as a joke. They were mixing salad dressing in a barn using a canoe paddle, bottling it in old wine jars to give to friends for Christmas. Once they decided to sell it, Newman felt it would be "tacky" to profit off his own face and celebrity status. Instead, he decided to lean into what he called "shameless exploitation for the common good"

It doesn't seem they address the quality of the final products, just how the companies are run. Anecdotally, I know tons of nurses wear Hoka shoes and act like they are to die for, but yet Hoka is on the avoid list. It would be more interesting rather than some vague articles about the brand to actually compare reviews before / after or how they match up against Consumer Reports --- a much more valuable resource in my mind.
