Games with non-real-world rules are how everyone who fights wars prepares for wars.
16 minutes here. Also guessed frequently.
We have mandatory 'fun days' where we grill hot dogs and play ultimate football.
Thanks for the link, I'll definitely attempting to implement some of the lessons from it to my draft next year. Incidentally, drafting is where I've always failed- I kind of just picked players without any knowledge or analysis, and then figured out what I could do with them during the season. The waiver wire helped, of course. Mine is an extremely blue collar league, so there's not much in the way of strategy besides 'I follow my gut'.
I'm deeply interested in this problem.
I've got to ask, though.
Isn't this a niche filled by 'business intelligence' and 'data science'? They call it a lot of different things, sure, but they seem to be operating in the same space- at least, they may seem to, to a non-technical executive. An exception is mid-to-small business - I don't think there's a lot of penetration there.
I no longer play sports (unless it's mandated by work), unless you count grappling on occasion.
Yes, I maintain a fantasy football team to practice statistical thinking (as opposed to actual statistics, at the moment) and because I found it ingratiates me with my colleagues. My workplace went from a den of geeks to regular Monday night football types in the space of months, so I switched from D&D to fantasy football.

Measuring RMR could reveal snowflake likelihood.
If ego depletion turns out to be real, choosing not to limit yourself in order to focus on something you find important might be a choice you make. Different people really do carry their fat differently, too, so there's that. Not everyone who runs marathons is slender, especially as they age.
And then there's injuries, but that brings up another subject.
I'm not sure how expensive whole body air displacement is in the civilian world, but it seems like a decent way to measure lean mass.
Have you talked to her about it? What does she say?
I'm a little surprised you hired someone for those designs. May I ask how much you paid? Quite honestly, you could've gotten the same design from a middle school student taking a graphic design class. This is fine if you're doing it yourself, but if you're paying for it, well, I think I could do better for free, and I've got absolutely no qualifications in the field.
I know what kind of designs appeal to a subset of society, but I guess we'd have to figure out who your target audience for those t-shirts are. It might not be anyone here, or anyone with the privilege of appreciating art, though the fact... (read more)
I'm talking about pleasure in general. Not just sexual.
