99% of apartment dwellers won't be able to do this

This is doubly the case if you have children. My daughter will show me her drawings and I always give a specific praise for her choices and not only the execution. After all, she’s going to get better with practice, but it’s her artistic choices she’s the most proud of.

For example ‘wow, you spent a lot of time on the dress didn’t you? That’s a lot of detail!’ Or ‘I really like how you used all different shades of blue, that’s called monochromatic and it gives your drawing an interesting look’ or ‘Tiana normally has a green dress, but you made it yellow and that was a cool change you made.’

Basically, you may think kids just want to be told their pictures are pretty, but really they like to be acknowledged for their effort, color choices, attention to detail, imagination etc. even more. Like if I say ‘pretty picture’, my daughter is happy but if I say, ‘woah! You made a shadow on the ground? That’s really difficult and I didn’t know you could do that’ her whole face lights up.

A UK penny should weigh exactly 3.5g if I remember right

Why aren't you reporting your landlord to your tenancy authority?

This is why slumlords do what they do. No one reports their ass

Put one upside down over your plate of food before microwaving. Top notch disposable splatter-catcher.

I think the simplest answer is that it's going to take legislative reform to protect the people from this all too common and abhorrent danger. All paper towels, tissues, coffee filters, and paper products made from over 67.7% cellulose woodpulp will henceforth require a permit to purchase, the permit will only be obtained after taking a fire safety class by a trained firefighter actively serving the municipality or region, and the kitchen within which the paper products are to be used along with the pyrotechnic rated magazine used to store these dangerous, flammable materials must be inspected and approved by your regional fire marshal.

>an increase in muscle insulin resistance, caused by obesity, diabetes mellitus type 2, and metabolic syndrome, will result in an excess accumulation of intramyocellular lipids.

I think you know this, but the presence of something (IMCL) does not indicate its the cause of that thing.

Unless wearing large pants is also causing obesity?

Your best effort here would be to speak directly with your manager.

If someone asks for your honest opinion, and they're looking for a critique, yes, but if you go to your kid's art show at their junior high, you wouldn't walk up unprompted and say Not your best work, son.

Constructive criticism is an art, and there is an appropriate time for it, but there are plenty of people in the world who are very happy to offer their unvarnished opinions, and very few who are going to be a cheerleader for you. People need cheerleaders as much as they need honest opinions. Knowing which is needed in any particular situation, is also an art, but I think that most of the time, finding something nice to say is almost always the better path, simply because so many others are choosing the other one.

I've never ever seen someone get overtime for time they don't physically work

He gave me $1000 for no reason.

LPT growth is uncomfortable, especially personal growth. Get over yourself and get in the pictures... Just in general, not even considering what OP is talking about.

Wouldn’t laziness cause to you not brush again after you ate?

That is literally all you can call it.

It's definitely not a sneaky "hack" - and is used extremely commonly.

When I was younger I was frequently forced to have my picture taken when I wasn’t comfortable with it. Now I have a lot of anxiety around having my picture taken because of that.

Want people to be more okay with participating in things that make them uncomfortable? Don’t demand, force, or guilt them into it.

Apple devices now mark it as opened even if it wasn't opened as a way to combat this sort of thing. It's opened on the server so you get a lot of false positives on the types of reports. It's been a hurdle for marketers to adapt to.

With Google accounts the tracking pixel may not be downloaded or may show strange open results. Google opens and proxies images transmitted to its users and uses a cache mechanism to serve a link to the same image.
Because Google proxies the image shortly after receiving the email, the initial open notification will often be a result of this action.
Google decided to use this method of image expression to save users and their server's bandwidth, avoid duplicates and optimize the client-to-server-to-client image processing.
Basically, it stores a copy of an image, and then, if some other Gmail account requests the same image, it is taken from the copy instead of the original location. Since most tracking software can only detect a download from the original location, the open tracking doesn't work or shows strange results when Google first retrieves the image (an "open" that is not made by an end user) and serves the cached version of the image from their image proxy server (end-user opens that may not be registered).
More details on this can be found on Google's official blog and this post about Google's image proxying from an external URL.
Most tracking software is highly inaccurate due to these systems as well as user error i.e opening the email in their own sent folder.

That’s a good idea
