No, it doesn’t. The ambiguity rises from the fact that it’s not that repeatable. There are many experiments that don’t find this phenomenon to exist when they test it. Then there’s some that do. That’s the problem.
My memory is that the majority of them find that it doesn’t exist and that a small minority find that it does.

Many studies of this are actually ambiguous!.
Like the other person commented, I use Firefox Plus adblocker on my phone and it’s fine.
It’s not weird that you meet someone through your parents, it’s weird that instead of starting a 10% of a relationship, they start at 90%. . Like they skipped a courtship, have two or three dates and then get married. That’s the part, as an American, I have a hard time accepting.
But hey, in my preferred model you should be living with your significant other for at least a year or two before you get married.
We did the disposable camera thing too, and out of them we got zero good shots from them. I don’t regret doing that, but I also don’t recommend it.
They also have to be within your budget, and they have to be available on the day of your wedding.
So many people here don’t really know what they’re talking about. Chip companies can’t cut corners on stability because of the amount of money that goes into everything around the chips is huge. If you think of a PC motherboard and you look at how many components are on that board now, imagine if one of the company’s cheaped out on a chip and didn’t bother testing it before sending it out and the only time they found out it was bad was when they finished making a board. The cost of finding, repairing and replacing those components far exceeds the pennies that they save by cheaping out.
The real answer is that their customers are a user of the chips and the cost of a bad part is massively more expensive than a tiny savings in manufacturing the chip.
The only place they cheap out on parts is in things that are standalone and dirt cheap such as an RFID chip. I’ve seen those get manufactured without test and only at the very end after they’ve been assembled to their antenna they then test and reject the ones that fail. They get away with it there only because the cost of the chip and antenna are so cheap.
Imagine Apple putting a sub-tier component in their phone and having to recall 10% of their phones because of it. It’s unheard of. The people who buy the chips are usually companies that use them and they have a very low threshold for bad components. While it’s true, some parts are binned for performance, they are never binned for quality.
Note - I’ve been involved in the test of semiconductors for the past 20+ years making load boards (package test) and probe cards (Wafer test) for many different IC manufacturers.
It’s an ego thing, he’ll hire a bunch of really expensive lawyers and drag it out as long as he can. This is what the rich do.
I go traveling with the sales guys sometimes, and we had Starbucks in between meetings so that we can sit down and do email for an hour and then go to the next meeting. I wouldn’t want to sit there all day.
I work from home and I never get to the point where I want to go out in public and do work. I do get to the point where I want to go on public, but I take a walk and get some sun and I don’t bring my laptop.
I hate this person. It makes me want to scream. One of the dumbest stupidest things about Windows is a fucking useless programs go on with it that haven’t been updated in 20 years. Please update them. You want to update notepad? Go look at Notepad+. Please please please update all the shitty little programs that exist around Windows that no one uses cause they’re so goddamn shitty.
Holy fuck update Windows programs. For the love of God update ALL the Windows programs. Make the goddamn search tool work. Make the goddamn voice to text work. Make the image viewer not suck. Please don’t listen to the people who are resistant to change. Leave an old shitty version on there just for them, but please please make Windows programs better because they suck right now!!
The only advice that I can give is to force yourself to try. I’m a naturally introverted person but I pushed myself get outside my comfort zone again and again. When I asked my future wife out on a date, I didn’t think I could do it in person, so I asked her out over email. I figured she was out of my league (and she was)… but I told myself “it’s better to ask and get a ‘no’ than never ask and always wonder.” Be ready for the pain of rejection, but force yourself to do it anyway.
However I don’t know you and the mountains you face. They are likely different from mine and require a different path. Good luck finding your path and getting to the second part of the comment.
I remember being lonely, emotionally starved, and deeply depressed and dreaming of having someone to share my life with. Now my wife is sleeping next to me with my kids in their bedrooms. In a moment I’ll put my phone down and roll over and snuggle in next to her and grab her boobs.
This is and has been better than I ever dreamed.
Actually don’t have a problem with this. I think all countries should have one primary language that is used across the entire country and that everyone in the country knows the language.
No, I’m not saying you should suppress the native languages or do things like only allow that language to be used in government offices, but for schooling and general communication, I think it’s best if everyone in the country is using one language. That helps keep everyone linked culturally, which is a crucial part of having a unified country.
Not me! My pet dinosaur can sleep on the fucking floor!
It’s all about empathy. If they lack empathy or kindness then fuck them. I don’t want them in my life and I prefer not to interact with them.
As father of an 18-year-old who is about to turn 19 and a 17-year-old she’s about to turn 18, I can’t imagine booting either of them out at this age. Could they stand on their own? Probably, but it seems inhumane and cruel.
I hope leaving was your choice and that it worked out well for you.

It was advice I have myself in college… Don’t focus on getting good grades, focus on learning. Judge your success on how much you learned.
The only time my grades actually mattered was interviewing for jobs right out of college. After that, every other job is based on your previous job and non no one ever asked again.
I’m in engineering and it this doesn’t necessarily translate to other fields. But I’m currently the cto for a mid sized tech company.
