Yeah, it’s refreshing seeing someone not in Big Pharma’s pocket.

Much better that he be in Big Wellness’s pocket which is an order of magnitude bigger, unregulated, and doesn’t need to provide evidence for their claims.

Is he in Big Wellness's pocket? I hadn't heard anything about that. Who's paying him off? He's a Kennedy with a net worth of about $15 million so he doesn't exactly need the money. He strikes me as an authentic true believer in his cause, but he could just be a really convincing con man, so I'd love to learn more about this.

Please link to some credible sources showing that he's being paid off by someone.

Why are doctors telling women that it's okay to take Tylenol during pregnancy in the first place? Everything they put in their bodies can have an effect on the baby so medication for pregnant mothers should be severely limited. Why haven't we learned from the Thalidomide scandal?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalidomide_scandal

Tylenol only helps for minor aches and pains that frankly, pregnant mothers should just deal with for the good of their unborn child. The risk is not worth it.

RFK Jr. isn't right on everything, but he's not wrong on everything either and it's refreshing seeing someone head HHS that isn't in big pharma's pocket for a change.

My unhelpful answer is that I usually begin an unproductive procrastination loop wherein I overanalyze different alternative programming languages, frameworks, libraries, and possible ways to build software. I read a ton of books and tutorials and then never build the thing. Oh and I spend way too much time here and on other websites.

My helpful answer is that occasionally I break out of this procrastination loop and just start making something I think would be cool. It doesn't have to be anything new or exciting, just something that will keep my interest or even better scratch my own itch.

One of the biggest lies we tell ourselves is that you shouldn't reinvent the wheel. This couldn't be further from the truth. Just imagine if people actually followed this advice in the technology space. Almost all of the software that you use on a daily basis is a reinvented wheel.

TLDR:

> Contrary to the common narrative that women who marry and have children are unhappy, the 2025 Women’s Well-Being Survey finds that married mothers are happier than women who are unmarried and women who do not have children. Both marriage and motherhood contribute to well-being in different ways. Married women are more likely than their unmarried counterparts to report feeling deep connection and meaning in their relationships. They are also less likely to be lonely and more likely to receive physical affection—both strong predictors of happiness. Mothers are also more likely to find meaning and purpose in life.

"an email from Google stating that they are no longer it's going to support the Nest 1st gen and 2nd gen thermostats. While they will continue to operate locally, it appears that they will no longer work with the Nest app or Home app controls."

at least they dont seem to be planning a mass bricking.

Does operate locally retain any smart features or does it just essentially become a dumb thermostat?

I highly recommend Ecobee if you want an alternative to Google Nest.

Is there a specific reason you’re choosing Delaware?

I know that it used to be the favorite state for this, but there have been recent changes to laws that make it less business friendly than it used to be.

In 2025 there are better states to incorporate in…
