This paper indicates a relationship between a lack of economic opportunity and opioid addiction: https://aspe.hhs.gov/system/files/pdf/259261/ASPEEconomicOpp...

I understand that you may have strong personal feelings about individuals who use drugs but I would encourage you to not make claims based exclusively on those.

I found a handful of sites that offer this service by searching Google for the phrase “Yelp for Landlords”. I have included an example above.

Not familiar with that interpretation, though there is another similar one that refers to what you mentioned: “written in stone”
To imply that the pursuit and achievement of an English undergraduate degree confers absolutely zero benefit or skill (or that everything even needs to be a “skill”, but that’s another conversation) is inaccurate at best. The ability to parse complex written information/documentation and distill value from it as well as to clarify your own thoughts in writing and communication is absolutely valuable and enriching for an individual.

Though I could very well be wrong and it is an absolutely useless degree, after all, I majored in philosophy ;)

What do you regret about software engineering?
How could they know when the founder sold stock? Is this public information?
I agree with your premise on the higher end but a $500 and $5000 salary are dramatically different. You won’t go hungry on 5k if you are frugal while $500 could kill you.
Where can I find more information about the history of the region? I know so little.
Re:What I experienced on a 7 day water fast on Friday September 13, 2019 @04:48PM (#20966372)
It is a bit difficult to tell but it appears that the author did consume water, but only water. This was just a normal fast that he called a ‘water fast’.

Honestly, depending on the establishment you work in, your sense of taste and smell don’t matter much as a line cook or a regular prep employee. You are outputting dozens of the same dish repeatedly in the same order with the same ratio of ingredients. More of an assembly line with a series of predetermined steps than a creative expression through food. A batch of soup may be tasted once at the beginning of the shift when it is prepared but it usually isn’t being checked on the fly.
