Are they any better off with it? I don’t the current rates but it used to be around a few pounds of rice. It’s desperation rates for desperate people.
Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

Lol. Welcome to the underbelly of comparative anatomy.
Most places to do it with insects. Sometimes they just leave them out but any organization with volume will use beetles.
I used to teach anatomy 20+ years ago. Sadly many of the skulls are sourced from the poorest people in impoverished countries. Companies pay a death benefit to the families or to the individual and then “harvest” the skull after death. They used to be priced based on the number of teeth and the presence of mandibular/maxillary degeneration. The highest priced skulls would come from donors and would have all their teeth.
Here’s a link to the UCLA scandal if you want to get a feeling for how scummy the entire industry is
I’d just ignore it and play by pulse. You learn to ignore that stuff - out of time clapping, background noises etc.
Lol.
This drives me nuts too, but most of them fall into one of two categories. They are either B2B so don’t care about individual consumers, or they are “lifestyle” businesses with basically one employee who doesn’t or can’t work excessive hours.
Ebbinghaus didn’t integrate areas under the acquisition curve. He wasn’t a mathematical psychologist.
Whatever that is, it’s not a learning curve. Ebbinghaus defined it in his classic work.
That’s where the confusion comes from, conflating the experience of walking up a steep hill vs an acquisition curve.
I thought that was a civil statement. I may be miscalibrated but I thought it was among the mildest of four letter words. I’d be happy to extend my vocabulary in the gentle art of dismissal.
I have given up on “steep learning curve”. A learning curve is proficiency on the Y axis against time on the X. A steep learning curve indicates something that is learned very quickly. A shallow learning curve is something that takes a long time to master. See Ebbinghaus 1885.
Are you my brother-in-law?
Get bent. Impacted is absolutely acceptable usage to describe a direct or follow on affect from an action or initiative. It’s useful precisely because it’s an intensifier that conveys not just that there is a detectable change in an indicator, but there is a major change that directly attributable to the manipulated variable.
ETA: I think I have this figured out. That 70s Show use the phrase “get bent” as a synonym for “fuck off”. That’s not how I learned the meaning in the actual 70s. It was closer in meaning to “get real” and in line with the reported etymology of “go have a drink”.
By number 3 there were extended scenes. No penis or vulva.
Tell me you’ve never played a Witcher game using a whole paragraph.
Please please please let it be Lambert and Keira Metz squabbling all over the continent as they track something stupid.
All of those platforms have used that strategy. I think both FARK and Reddit had/have professional trolls on the payroll back in the day to drive controversy and therefore engagement.
Dude. Seriously?
