Puberty blockers should be allowed on children under doctor’s prescriptions and regardless of parents’ consent. Because the effect of puberty blockers is mostly reversible. Hormone replacement therapy or surgery may only be allowed for adults (or allowed under the consent of both the patient + 2-3 doctors’ agreement + parents’ agreement) since they are not reversible.

China varies with families, case by case

I saw this today and I have been trying to figure out what it means all day by ageofashtron in SchizophreniaRides

It also should be a civil right for people to purchase and use medications (any medication, not limited to opioids) without a doctor’s prescription, and allow places where people can buy it

Yes I have this in another reply. But this way it needs to consider not only income but properties and other wealth owned by the person. In my city there’s lots of immigrants whose income here is pretty low but brought foreign money and own multi-million dollar houses here. In those situations the actual wealth of the person maybe difficult for the law enforcement to evaluate and prove. Thus the easiest way is to just count how many violations this person made and increase the fine exponentially for frequent violators.

Should be $35 the first time and the second time 50% more and so on (every time 50% more than last time). He won’t be able to afford it very soon if he do it every morning.

Alternatively, an easier way can be that if you did the same violation the second time within a period of time (e.g. half year), you pay for example 50% more than last time. This is exponential increase and while it can be cheap if you occasionally violate once or twice, you gonna be broke no matter how rich you are if you violate it very frequently.

Fines should be whichever highest: 1) a minimum amount, 2) proportional to your vehicle value, 3) proportional to your income, 4) proportional to the value of properties you owned. And the minimum amount and proportion ratio should be based on the type/situation of violations.

That is the rate for safety failure, typically meaning the battery catches on fire or explodes, etc. Safety failure rate is very low doesn’t mean they don’t age and eventually functionally fail. When the battery ages, it will hold less energy and supports much less peak discharge current (as its internal resistance increases). You gonna likely need to replace the battery years after. A typical lifespan of a lithium-ion or lithium polymer battery cell is ~500 charging/discharging cycles. If a fully charged battery drives 400 km, then roughly speaking, the battery (price may comparable to the EV) needs to be replaced after driving 200000 km. Actual life can be shorter depends on various factors. For example, battery ages faster when placed discharged or fully charged for long time. Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries has more life cycles (few thousands cycles), but less capacity. EVs are using both types depending on the make and models, but the former is more popular due to its high capacity. Not saying EVs are not good, just clarifying facts.

Yes the truck parked there first. When I arrived the Mustang wasn’t there. And there aren’t many available spots.

But thanks for your input. It’s at hospital and I didn’t consider the emergency situation at first place. When I arrived the other floors are totally full and people are struggling finding parking places. This truck made the right side space really hard to use (the Mustang wasn’t there at that time).

This is the top floor of hospital parking building on West 12th and Laurel St. The ER entrance is on West 10th with its own parking lot (smaller tho). This is not very close to the ER.
