The "inclement weather" law is, as far as I know, in all states and territories of the US. Meaning you are required by law to turn on your headlights. If your wipers are going your headlights better be on.

This is the definition of keeping an open mind. Doesn't mean you won't still disagree but you at least make you decision based on more than "No". That is toddler speak and we all know toddlers that say no to everything even if they do actually agree with you.

Which makes you a good person and is respectable in and of itself. An individual can only demonstrate their respect for others by their actions; until we learn how to read minds. Which brings in that other word Honor. Your personal honor is not reliant on others which is why you treat people with kindness and politeness. This in turn generates respect for yourself which is honestly earned by the actions you perform. Lovely little circle don't you think?

Good advice as long you also realize toxic people will argue with you and call it expressing their feelings. The trick is figuring out who is what. And sometimes, even without intending too, you're the toxic person. That being said if you find yourself being toxic around a person or persons it's probably best to avoid those people as well. Avoid people who bring out the worst in you.

Conflating respect with kindness or politeness is pretty common misapprehension. Respect is earned simply because you can't respect someone until you known them for a length of time. It's hard to have a deep admiration for someone if you know nothing about them. Whereas you can treat everyone with kindness or politely while you determine whether they are worthy of your respect.
On the flip side respect can also be demanded by those with power over you. Since respect doesn't require you to like the person merely understand they can ruin/end your life and those around you based on their whims.

Correct, with one caveat. Talent, true talent can only be discovered after you've spent quite a bit time doing something. Chances are really good that even if you do have talent you'll still suck at first but that's normal. You may find you don't have a talent for doing something but the only way to tell is to keep doing it.
Also, if anyone tries to tell you to stop because you don't have talent, screw them. If everyone stopped doing something because they weren't immediately great at it nothing would have ever been accomplished.

Hmm that last one. On the surface it looks like it should mean make as many friends as you can but if that stuff really went down you'd want a very very select group of friends.

The problem of being "gifted" is you're generally not learning at the same rate as everyone else. "Duh". Classes for "gifted" need to be correspondingly difficult to train the student in appropriate study techniques. Unfortunately, or obviously, "gifted" students also learn at different speeds. There is no one size fits all and the necessary work to needed to challenged a truly "gifted" person would bury the more regular fast learners and be impossible for normal students. Then there is classroom teaching speeds. A teacher can only teach to the slowest student. Then there is fairness to consider. Is it fair to assign what amounts to more homework to some just because they're faster? How do you grade that? Without private tutoring, you can see how difficult the problem is for teachers and parents.

There was once a game that listed an email address or an mail address, I forget which, that if you sent them an email/letter to that address with your mailing address and full name would send you a check for $1000. This was listed in the Terms & Conditions. Only one person ever sent them something and they sent the check for a $1000.

So can we artificially create and grow albino plants? Cause that's pretty cool looking. I can see some application in low light, low power areas that still need oxygen. Does an albino plant produce oxygen at the same rate? I'm too lazy to research.

I have to say I agree completely with @guest_. I'd also add one more thing. It's important to have people around you that can or will disagree with you on things. As long as you can keep it civil and friendly it's a very important step in figuring out your own thoughts and allows us to push further than we would otherwise. Surrounding yourself with like minded people is comfortable but you won't grow well as a person if you live in a echo chamber.

Here's an excellent video of a doctor explaining a CDC report about covid original and delta variant and how it relates to hospitalization given four premises. Unvaccinated, vaccinated, vaccinated and had covid, and had covid unvaccinated. He does cover comorbidities and such. He doesn't try to prove or disprove anything merely explain in layman's terms what the report actually says. You will definitely find it interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25-iJKPA1CA&ab_channel=Dr.JohnCampbell

Of course a "traditional vaccine" helps the body kill the virus by developing certain antibodies that go in and eat the virus essentially. This is how they stop the spread of a virus. Vaccines like the covid one don't do that. Instead they prevent the body from being susceptible to the virus. They don't make the body to fight it off or destroy the virus. So it does protect the vaccinated from developing serious conditions but it doesn't stop them from getting infected or acting like carriers. Eventually the virus dies out in the body of the vaccinated because it can't reproduce enough, but until then they will still spread the virus.
