@jerry "Hey, I took this job with the expectation of limited travel and you stuck me in a hazardous environment for long enough to bring a baby to full term. We're going to be having some very serious discussions about my retroactive pay rate and forever future health coverage."

@jerry "I'd like to talk to HR about my health insurance deductions and enrollment period. I've been having huge problems trying to find a provider in my area."

@GossiTheDog the vendor you want: yes. Assume we're compromised. Have a plan for how that won't deeply hurt your business.

@freemo @michaelk aren't prion diseases typically pretty slow? There may be an expectation that dogs needing pacemakers aren't expected to live long enough for diseases to be an issue simply because of canine lifespans.

@ryanhoulihan my only caveat on your first question would be "who defines Trans?" Is there a stage in transitioning before which it would be inappropriate? Is there a body that can manage and monitor that without medical info that is private to that person being disclosed and becoming a topic of discussion for every armchair wannabe coach?

"Who's trans enough?" Is a really scary road to start going down and seems fraught with perils that I at least have no right or basis to weigh in on.

Can the current hopefuls of the Russian men's weightlifting team decide they're trans, convince the military that it's true and that they shouldn't be conscripted to Ukraine and try to compete as neutrals in next year's Olympics? Only if they're taking antiandrogens? Who decides what the appropriate levels for those are? Do they need a history of therapy to prove that it's not just an attempt to avoid drone dropped grenades?

@patrickcmiller What I want is a way to turn it off system wide, not manually in every separate profile.
