It seems the population using the GLP1 drugs are predisposed to pancreatitis. Causes of pancreatitis include Diabetes, obesity, heavy alcohol use. The first cause is the on label use of GLP1 drugs. The second two are off label uses for the drug. Article doesn't seem to touch coloration of these health issues and the use of the drug.
I'm a manager but has single contributor responsibilities.
1. How do you interface with your team (and how frequently)?
A. Daily, if not hourly. Via calls, chats and emails.
2. How do you interface with your manager (and how frequently)?
A. Ad-hoc and scheduled 1:1, my manager is a C level (smallish company, ~$40 in net profits.)
3. Do you have some recurring meetings? What is their cadence?
A. Yes, but this depends on the employee, high flyers I let them set the schedule. Folks that turn out to need more help, I set the schedule, anywhere from once a week to once a month.
4. How do you take care of documentation?
A. I have a background in Technical Documentation... Probably drives my team nuts. But I focus on getting tribal knowledge in to Wikis at least, formal documentation as required by regulation or policy/standard.
5. How do you ensure that you have time to work on your sprint tasks while context switching?
A. LOL... In seriousness I weight my story points heavier as what I am working on is usually obscure and/or steeped in regulation.
6. How do you ensure everyone is moving in the same/correct direction?
A. Through 1:1 and daily stand-ups. Plus monitoring the board. Finally, communicating the overall goals and obligations of the group. If one of my team members says "I've heard this before" I respond with "Good, you'll here it at least one more time."
I took the more challenging direction with my leadership. I manage people balancing their expectations and mine. I'll give someone enough rope early on to see if they can manage themselves.
Parting thought, I work with and worked for many veterans. One thing I learned from them is find your NCO, lean on them and reward them. Consider yourself a newly minted butter bar (Lieutenant) and don't assume you know best. But use your experience to guide the ideal direction, avoiding pitfalls you know about.
There's a lot of points in this thread about birth rates needing to rise for economic good. This is based on the false premise that the only stable thing for an economy is growth.
For what it matters, here are my reasons for not having children. And yes, I'm in a heterosexual relationship and it was possible for us to have children but chose not to. The world is fucked, I couldn't bring a life in to this world where we are killing ourselves and the planet. Where the day to day is to hope you make enough money to just survive. We humans are selfish and fearful creatures. It's a gross world we live in.
Someone will come along and say, who will take care of me when I'm old? When I get close to that point, I'll follow Hunter S. Thompson's lead.
Seriously, I watched my grand parents slowly decay over the course of 15 years, it was not life.
If our primary goals as humans was to learn, create, explore and preserve; I would probably have a big fucking family because I would want my children to share in that.
Not only photography, anything dropped shipped from a warehouse. For example, if I need a printer or laptop in a pinch B&H will get it to me pretty quick. Pretty much anything electronics wise they are great source.
Going back to photography, you totally trust B&H. You know the equipment has been treated well since it arrived from the factory. No chance of grey market stuff either.

The peak design bags have dividers they refer to as origami dividers. The majority of the volume of the bag can be customized using the dividers.
The is a laptop sleeve between the back of the bag and the main compartment. In that sleeve there is a divider. I believe the divider is meant to separate a 15" mac book and full sized ipad. The sleeve is large enough for my 14" laptop and my 12" laptop. Additionally, the sections you use to get in to the main compartment have padded organizers.
The bag is really clever and seems to be incredibly well built, time will tell on that.
I go through a lot of bags trying to find the perfect one. Quite literally one every 3-4 months for the last 4 years.
Finally bought the 30l Peak Design backpack. Best thing ever. Worth every penny.
