What you’re describing is called a citation or reference tree and they are used to visualize complex set of references. Web of Science has a nice one, Scopus also has a tree view, I believe. Google Scholar has the information to make one, but doesn’t.

Is there a Browser where I don’t have to turn off these type of sponsored links? I’ve done it in Chrome, Firefox and Opera at minimum.

I have a lot of friends who have a fruit smoothie every morning and wonder why they aren’t losing weight. Bananas, apples, and grapes in particular are to be avoided. Most berries are okay.

Modern fruits have too much fructose for good health these days. They’ve been bred to be way too sweet.

I did this for a business number many years ago and it worked fine.

As a child in the US I was taught “The Principal is you ‘pal’.” which is not true but helpful when spelling it. Like “dessert” has more ‘s’ than “desert” because it’s something you want more of.

If you soaked your skin then that is just dead skin cells. Pilling happens on dry skin.

Lotion is composed of a water part that gets absorbed or evaporated and a fat or wax part that only absorbs into the very top layer of dead cells.

In skincare discussions what you experienced is called “pilling” and it’s the result of putting on a lotion or skin product too soon after another one that was applied too thickly or didn’t have time to absorb fully. The balls are dead skin and the dried lotion or sunscreen that has gotten gummy and stuck to itself like eraser bits. Apply your sunscreen a little bit thinner and rub it in well and it shouldn’t continue to happen.

Literally just pulled my daughter’s high tops out of the washer. We unlace them and put them in a zippered laundry bag (cheap at most stores that sell Landry soap, look near the clothespins in the cleaning aisle) with the laced. Wash shoes alone with regular soap and a small amount of oxiclean on gentle with an extra rinse, cool water, smallest load. They finished looking very nice and we usually let shoes dry sitting out in the air on a towel for a day or 2 before wearing.

The interview is a vibe check first and foremost. If you vibe with the team we will overlook other things in your application. If you made it to interview, we already think you’re good enough so don’t stress trying to impress or apologize.

Managers are mostly people who get tired of watching other people do things badly and decide to try to do better. You don’t need a special degree or any magic to be a good manager, you should like people though.

Everyone is faking it to some degree.

DO are real doctors. Rarer than MDs because there are less schools but totally real docs. My Mom with 30 years nursing experience says their training is basically identical, but DOs are generally nicer.

For reference, they still sell these too: Full Sheets

My 2017 Chevy Bolt is fully electric and has less fancy integrations than most cars sold today. It’s got Bluetooth and aux audio in but you have to connect a phone with a cable for Car Play or Android Auto, it’s got normal buttons and switches for all the car stuff too. It had a remote start until I ran out of free On Star months.

Would have gotten us both mental health drugs and therapy way sooner. Would have had some honest conversations way sooner than we had them. We wouldn’t spend nearly so much time angsting about making other people, especially our parents, happy around the wedding itself because a lot of those things didn’t matter in the long term but took away from our enjoyment of the event for our sake.

I’ve got twin girls. We held off on smartphones until this past summer when they turned 13.

One couldn’t wait to have a smart phone and now handles her own entire social life through it and is happier than ever now that she can communicate with her friends non stop.

The other simply did not want a phone. We asked a dozen times and she said she wasn’t interested in one and didn’t think she would use it. Since she’s with her twin 75% of the time anyway we decided not to push.

They are two separate solutions for different phases of the problem.

1. Buying electric vehicles over internal combustion engines now is practical because most of us don’t live in a reasonable commuting distance to our jobs.

2. Vote for politicians that support pedestrian friendly zoning practices, remote work, and mass transit for the future so that less people are stuck in that situation in 20 years.

Doing only one of them doesn’t fully solve the problem, you either continue to pollute now or you are stuck polluting, albeit less, forever.

I’m sure it annoys people that both are necessary and if you happen to live in a situation where the first is unnecessary for you, it can look like it’s not necessary for everyone. But most Americans live at least 20 miles from their workplace so the vast majority of us can’t just wait for policy solutions.

This is correct by US standards. When writing the number out we use commas to separate the millions and thousands places like this: 4,500,000. But when we abbreviate large numbers with a word we use a decimal place appropriately in this way so the same number would be: 4.5 million.

In some but not all of Europe they might write the same number with periods where we use commas so they would write 4.500.000 but they would write the abbreviated version the same.

Yet other places around the world would only use spaces instead of commas or periods and write 4 500 000.

Roughly a quarter of the armed forces is under 25, the largest age group https://www.statista.com/statistics/232711/number-of-active-duty-us-defense-force-personnel-by-age/

So even if there’s a split, the front lines will still be mostly people too young to rent a car.

Yeah, somehow all my gun-owning friends get all awkward and quiet when I ask them how it’s gonna feel to shoot at the 18yo army recruits and national guard when they finally “come for their guns.” I haven’t even gotten to ask what anti-drone measures they have.

Not one of them is ready for the realities of a shooting war with the American Military.
