"So the policy effectively taxes low-income consumers generally to raise wages for a subset of low-income workers, while eliminating jobs for another subset. Your mileage may vary but I don’t see this as a big win for workers."
"However, after excluding participants with either diabetes or obesity, this association was no longer significant."
Re:How to revive your love of books on Tuesday December 23, 2025 @08:51PM (#46371607)
Use your public library and/or read ebooks.

In the US, the Libby app is great for finding, borrowing, and reading ebooks from one or more public libraries.

In related news, Carlos Sainz finished third. It was his second podium of the season...in a Williams! He's still the last Ferrari driver to win a Grand Prix (last year).
An over-the-top clickbait headline to promote the author's new book. The important clarification appears in paragraph 9 of the article:

"the challenge system that will be introduced next year, which gives each team two chances per nine innings to ask for an automated second guess"

Someday, fully-automated balls-and-strikes calls may come to Baseball. But the change for next season is nothing more than the home plate equivalent of American football's challenge flag.

This author, Michael Kozlowski, spends most of his time and space promoting Amazon products and attacking all other e-ink tablets as inferior. And this article sticks to that formula.
Re:Another airport in Denmark under drone attack on Wednesday September 24, 2025 @09:22PM (#45368197)
To clarify, this article does not use the phrase "attack". It simply states that drones were seen above the airspace and no further info is currently available.

Hoka OneOne.
This restriction only applies during F1 events.

McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown commented, “These drivers can do this stuff in their own time, so I think it is within Formula 1 and the FIA’s right to say ‘here’s the code of conduct we expect for you to follow during a grand prix weekend. You’re free to do whatever you want to do Monday through to Friday’, so to speak, but obviously it’s at a grand prix weekend the drivers have the most cameras on them."

British programs often film a season every 2 years.

10 seasons of "Doc Martin" [0] have taken 18 years to produce and air.
