It’s all just the new testament. Before you fuck with poor people and nail them to a cross, make sure they aren’t just slumming it, and actually have a very powerful father.

It’s always one of the first things to get cut when companies try to save money.
Because there’s all these fertilized eggs that don’t become people. If you believe life begins at conception, then IVF kills a lot.
It’s all unscientific nonsense, and requires you to ignore how many fertilized eggs don’t become a viable fetus, but the anti-abortion stance has never been about science. It’s about control.
That’s not how it works.
Parties are at the national level, and form alliances/blocks at the international level in order to get things done. These blocks shift and there is no guarantee that one party will continue to vote with a particular block.
Pick a country. Generally, the political parties in that country will stand for local elections, national elections, and EU elections. At that point you can ask what their politics are. But EU wide parties aren’t a thing.
Except that England’s national dish is chicken tikka masala.
I’m fairly sure most people don’t assume they know why someone said it’s blue, they just don’t care.
People say things to make conversation. It often fails to make sense, but you can just roll with it instead of autopsy-ing the conversation.
You’re normally expected to have lifelong symptoms, but that doesn’t mean you had to do badly in school.
You can constantly daydream, lose stuff and turn up late for everything and still ace tests, at least early on. It gets harder to get away with this later in life.
Teams defaults are pure scummery.
No, don’t alert me on a Sunday night with notifications that I might have missed over the last two days.
I tried using some but they’re all equally shit.
That would be fine, if people weren’t using LLMs to write code, or to do school work,
But they are. So it’s important to write these articles that say “if you keep using a chainsaw to drive nails, here are the limitations you need to be aware of.”
Work socks as well.
They’re socks that go with construction boots. Basically the same as hiking socks but cheaper.
It’s super hard to get involved as a UI person. If you’re a developer, you can just rock up to a project and fix bugs, and if you follow the coding style they’ll probably get accepted.
If you want to successfully contribute as a UI person you have to convince a bunch of developers that you know what they should be doing better than they do. It basically never happens.
It’s a consequence of parliamentary sovereignty.
Parliament can always dissolve itself and call an election, and it’s an important mechanism for getting rid of the government.
The problem is that the prime minister also has a majority in parliament, and that means he can make parliament dissolve itself when he likes.
This was actually a problem for Johnson. Initially, he didn’t have enough of a majority and it wasn’t clear he could call an election without Corbyn’s support.
Good luck suing a cop. The courts have consistently ruled that they can basically do what they like and you can’t sue them for shit.

Both. It’s like the saying “Governing a big country is like cooking small fish.” (With the explanation that if you keep poking it, it’ll disintegrate) also taught me how to cook fish as well as realpolitik.
The fish advice was most useful.
They actually hired an Australian to copy it for them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Levido
Yeah, debugging tests is an important part of test driven development.
You also have to be careful. Some tests are for me to debug my code and aren’t part of the ‘contract’.
But on the other hand, it’s really nice. If I spend a couple of hours debugging actual code and come out of the process with internal tests, the next time it breaks, the new tests make it much easier to identify what broke. Previously, that would have been almost wasted effort, you fix it and just hope it never breaks again.
Unofficial/self diagnosis helped me in my personal relationships.
I mentioned to my partner that a doctor friend thought I had ADHD, and it really helped them not take some of my most annoying traits personally.
I get where you’re coming from with needing an official diagnosis for work accommodations, but none of your friends are really going to demand to see a doctor’s note, so why would personal relationships depend on an official diagnosis?
