Another factor that hasn’t been mentioned yet is it gives cops pretty unilateral right to pull you over if they feel like it. IANAL, but in many places it’s illegal for a cop to pull you over just for “being suspicious”, but because of speeding and various other traffic laws on the books that are almost universally ignored, they can pull you over for speeding, then decide you seem suspicious and search your car, breathalyze you, etc.

The conductor serves to keep the full ensemble together generally, but of course professional groups could probably get through a whole piece without one if the tempo doesn’t change much. The conductor also serves to unify the group in terms of interpretation, how loud or soft to play, how smooth or separated the notes should be, which instruments/voices should be more noticeable than others, and so on.

Mate, the article links to the study, rather than be pedantic about the title you could read the study and figure out how they did the math yourself.

Fun fact: the fruit was named before the color.

For that to happen, society needs to be structured in a way that the benefits of greater productivity is distributed to everyone, particularly those most in need.

I sure as hell don’t see that happening anywhere at the moment. Productivity has grown steadily since I entered the workforce - my paycheck sure as hell hasn’t reflected that.

I did the same one and did select the crocodiles, which passed. I suspect the captcha has less to do with correct answers and more to do with analyzing mouse movements or something like that

The metal straws I own came with a brush that’s the right size to clean them.
