Dipping into the pool of piss is a curious design choice.

Part of the problem seems to be imposing labels and identities on yourself and others.

There's a saying that labels make you dumber and the (largely downvoted) comments mentioned in the article demonstrate this.

Do NOT put your phone on permanently silent so that phone calls don't ring.

Disable most notifications altogether, especially: email and any form of group messages (like WhatsApp group).

For 1-on-1 instant messages / SMS, display a silent notification.

For specific email, create a special notify tag and sparingly assign it to urgent threads and some sent messages. You can also use filters to assign the tag automatically.

Deny notifications for most apps.

All calls should ring. It may be something urgent even if you don't recognize the number. It may be someone close to you calling with a hospital phone before heading out to emergency surgery. It may be the police. This is why you don't want to default to blocking hidden numbers unless you really have to.

You don't _need_ the competition, either. Just pretend it's 2005 and acquire food some other way.

You should update your CV accordingly: "Likely to pass several technical interviews (as assessed by the North Korean Reconnaissance General Bureau)."

I thought it was a coherent story with a lot of short pauses for comedic effect rather.

In the context of documents, the lack of font choice regarding Times New Roman could be partly attributed to the fact that it was the default font on Microsoft Word until 2007. The irony is, of course, that it was replaced by none other than Calibri.

Beware of the racist under construction progress bar.

Nice problem! I wonder if there is a generic way of testing such a problem with different board arrangements. For example, could you apply knot theory or another concept?

I'd personally want to hear new voices, not more of the same. I wonder if products like this take away from the opportunity for new talent to arise.

It's important to note that there's geographic variability in guidelines. Also, the article doesn't give enough information about the author's other risk factors. For a similar patient (based on the initial lab results), treated by a doctor adhering to the European guidelines, at least the following items would have been considered:

- Lipid lowering drugs

- ApoB testing

- Coronary CT (if the pre-test likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease was estimated to be > 5%)

- Diabetes tests

- Kidney tests
