If we consider that roughly 73.6% of Americans are overweight[0], perhaps there would be some benefit if substantially more people started taking GLP-1 medications.
i think we'll soon see some very safe OTC version of GLP-1 just added to the food and drinks just like salt and sugar are added. That will allow for example Coke drinkers to drink it back again a lot.
That would be a good addition to food from the public health view. From the food producers point of view i think they would find some version which doesn't have effect of decreasing consumption, yet would prevent the gross obesity result from increased consumption, a "diet" like versions without it actually being a diet ones.
It's 40% of the _starter dose_ (2.5 mg), which is what patients begin taking to get their bodies accustomed to the drug. The "maintenance dose" that patients build up to can be many times higher (10-15 mg).
40% of the starter dose (40% of 2.5mg = 1mg) would be between 6-10% of the "maintenance dose" (betweeen 10-15mg).
Not all supporters of a given political party agree on everything. They may simply align with the party on the topics that are most important to them, even if they disagree with other topics that are lower on their priority list.
It is disingenuous to suggest that any group of people unilaterally agree on a diverse collection of topics.
Yeah, you could get an unlisted number but you were charged for it and almost no one did because it was also how people you wanted to get in touch with you found you a lot of the time. Not that data breaches aren't bad but a lot of the breached info has been pretty routinely available for a very long time. (And, as you say, cell phone numbers are probably less routinely available than landlines were.)
I don't go out of my way to publish my cell or address but a lot of people have them.
My old man was a doctor and the local phone company at the time (GTE) automatically made our home number unlisted. Presumably this was done for other “critical” professions who might receive many home calls that should be directed at their place of work.
Being unlisted was sometimes devastating to a 1980s kid’s social life… I missed out on multiple birthday parties and other invitations. My sisters probably lost out on some dating opportunities.
I think what they're saying is that someone could pretend to be a researcher and ask for passwords to confirm that they match what was found in some fictional breached data.
If I'm reading it right the part about them confirming that the records contained the password implies that they were given the relevant record and then they confirmed it was accurate, not that they were just asked "hey what is your password"
What would be the benefit of using SFP+ on mainstream consumer motherboards? It would further increase the effective price to consumers as they'd have to purchase a separate transceiver, which are bulkier and might overly crowd an already compact I/O shield layout.
I'm having a hard time reading this as a reasonable suggestion, so I apologize in advance if I'm being closed-minded.
Do you not believe that this would lead to further bad outcomes? Children need something to do during the day, and with neither the ability to work, nor other obligations (not to mention their brains are not fully developed) it seems like they would end up far worse off than they would otherwise, even if the school was under-performing.
All the browsers on my machine report my resolution as 1080p despite using 4k. I assume this is because I run at 200% scaling (I believe this is relatively common among anyone using a 4k resolution)
If the above-linked website uses data reported by the browser, I wonder how this scenario might be taken into consideration (or even if such a thing is possible)
A pixel is defined as 1/96th of an inch in the web world so it is dependent on your dpi/scaling. There is a window.devicePixelRatio that JavaScript can use to get actual pixels.
