Candidate in high-stakes Virginia election performed sex acts with husband in live videos
Where's the problem? She and her husband were obviously consenting, the viewers were consenting.
Who the hell cares.

And guess what, that works.
But it IS how we see prices. If there weren't science behind it, they wouldn't be doing it.

My wife was unimpressed by Vim
This relationship can be saved as long as the guy's wife does not start expressing an interest in Emacs. That would, of course, put an end to the relationship, but if she's one of those "Notepad is all I need" types, there is hope this can be worked through.

Where are the old (30s) granpa gamers?
61 in about 3 weeks. I'm older than Pong, and I game every day.

Guy was placed under arrest for lying about his name and having expired tags. Guy runs, cops chase and tase him on the highway where incoming traffic runs him over and kills him.
So not only are they responsible for the death of someone who didn't need to die, they are also responsible for the trauma of the driver who killed the person.

how do I accept that a doctor earns more than double what I do?
Your worth, your value is not determined by what someone else makes.
Also, I'm a bit ignorant of this subject so forgive me if I get it wrong, but did he not go to school significantly longer for his MD than you did for yours?
I believe he also had to go through the hell that is residency, I didn't believe nurses do.
If you're envious of his salary, improve your skills, or your education. If you're happy where you are at In life, then don't let the fact that others make more than you interfere with that happiness.
No matter what you do, there will always be others who make more, one of those sad facts of life.

The best thing you could possibly do is have children report on their parents for evading the ban. Or I suppose have neighbors report on each other.
It was really effective for the Stasi and the KGB.

Marcellus Williams is executed despite prosecutors and the victim’s family asking that he be spared
It doesn't matter if he was guilty or innocent. State-sanctioned murder is ALWAYS wrong.

About 1 in 4 US adults 50 and older who aren't yet retired expect to never retire, AARP study finds
I won't be retiring. Not particularly good with money, plus a divorce, I'm 60, and have about 200K in retirement. It's my own fault, I could have been far smarter. Now was always far more important than then.

I've been on my project for 23 years. I haven't written production code for ten of those years. There are still commits in the production branch with my name on them. Is both gratifying and mortifying.
I was talking with two other "old-timers" today about our inability to pay off tech debt because our teams are never given the time to do it

Feeling awkward for two now
Two men other than my father had dramatic impact on my life. Both of them were PE teachers, one in elementary school and one in high school.
I was awkward, uncoordinated, and a social outcast. I was always the last picked when teams were picked. My elementary school PE teacher solved this by making me the "captain" and I got to pick the teams.
My high school PE teacher, who won State championships and coached future NBA all-stars still had time to be my doubles partner when we were playing tennis.
Those two men were definitely my champions.
