Does mitosis have homologous chromosomes

We recently purchased a house that came with 8 hens and a rooster. We have been here for about a month, and all has been well. Until yesterday when I came outside and she was laying against the fence not really moving. I went over to her and she was struggling to stand on her own, I picked her up and moved her closer to the coop. When I went to sit her down she got a sudden boost of energy and ran over to one of our water pools where she got in and laid in the water until it was time to go in the coop. This morning I went out and she is in the same spot she went to last night and is alive but looks like she may be having a harder time breathing and keeping her eyes open. We have kept their feed the same as the previous owners as well as their routines. This is the first time I've owned chickens, so I am very new to all of this. I did check her vent and noticed some dirty feathers and cleaned them but no blockage that I could see. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I watched the Met Live Manon with Piotr Beczała as Des Grieux. In his first duet with Manon, his eyebrows seemed to be quivering in sync with the vibrato of the sound he produced. It was strange. I took a video - please watch! I wondered if it was a singular quirk, then I watched one of the lead actresses in a musical do the same exact thing while singing, live in person from the second row.
I researched and found nothing addressing this quirk. I am aware of the general wisdom that tensing or manipulating the eyebrows in any way is ineffective. What strikes me is that it doesn’t seem manipulated. It ebbs and flows with the sound in minute movements that look involuntary.
I’d like to understand it more in order to avoid it. I want to know any thoughts you have to offer.
My questions are: What on earth is happening here? What does it indicate about the singer’s technique? Have you seen other singers do this or other physical vibrato movements? If so - Show me. I can’t look away.

Hi all! So I recently visited the Negev Desert in Israel and had a really transformative, meditative experience with my tour guide there. It was my first time in the desert and I absolutely loved it and felt a real, spiritual connection there.
Ever since, I’ve been trying to think of ways to get back there. Does anyone have any recommendations for spirituality/meditation retreats, programs, etc. in the desert? The cheaper the better, obviously, but I’m planning to save up so money isn’t a huge concern within reason. I really want an authentic experience that doesn’t feel touristy, smaller groups, experienced guides, etc. Any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I’ve started BIAB today and am determined to grow out my natural nails after years of biting, skin picking and acrylics (I would sometimes even pick off the acrylics). I have depression and anxiety and it’s really hard to stop but I’ve reached the end of my tether.
The only thing I am concerned about is I have a tiny ‘hole’ in the lunula of my left thumb — you can see in the second pic where it’s red. I’ve had these before due to picking at the cuticle which has led me to pick off the entire thumbnail at various points in my life :(
Has anyone dealt with the above problem before with holes in their lunula and how to leave them alone and not make them worse?
Also does anyone have any essential items (hand creams, oils, scrubs, fidget tools, etc) that helped you stop picking? I really need to throw out all the nail clippers I use to pick but am almost struggling to bring myself to… It’s a real addiction.
Hoping to update this with progress pics to keep myself accountable.
Thank you!

Hi, Tldr; started studying after 12 years in AV industry. Unsure wether to go back to work or continue studying.
So, I’ve worked 12 (30M) years in the professional AV industry as freelance consultant. Good clients and coworkers, with a foot in almost every niche of the industry.
4 years ago we got a child and moved to the countryside about an hour of commute to my “main” clients. With all responsibilities as a parent it got harder to work in my main niche of the industry, as that meant being away several weeks at the time. “Luckily”, the pandemic made that line of business almost non-existing, so the first couple of years I had a more stationary work, still with long workdays, but I always could go back home every day.
A year ago, after the industry opened up and we had a few months of 30-days-work-months, I decided to try my hand at university studies, partly because I’ve always had said that I was gonna study, and partly to see if I would have a better work/life balance. I enrolled a computer science program at a big university in my country.
Now, after one year of study, I’m at a loss of what to do in the future. During this year I found that work/life balance is a bit better, but mainly due to me cutting down the amount of time I’m studying (and still pass). However, I miss my colleagues and the pleasure of my old work, which in a way was/is my dream. I also noticed that I very much enjoy being my own employer, and I like the direct satisfaction with the gig-structure workdays; getting on location, do what you gotta do so the gig gets done, get home and invoice.
But, how do I manage to have that job and get a good work/life balance? Is it even possible?
On the other hand, how does the IT industry look in 2 years when I’m supposed to be done with the studies? Will it really make work/life balance easier, or will it be just the same? And how do I compete with other students that can spends their weeknights and weekends learning more programming etc, while I have family responsibilities?
Salary wise, both options are almost the same, apart from needing student loans during the 2 more years of studying.
So, a lot of uncertainty in both futures. Thankful for all advice and insights.

Reserves curves (graphing y reserves vs x reserves) are generally a poor way to visualize a CFMM Usually having price or log price on the X axis (and value, x, y, or L on the Y axis) is much easier to read
Here's an example: what can you tell me about the CFMM with this reserves curve? How does it differ from the constant product market maker? Does it concentrate more of its liquidity around the price of 1, or less?

If you think that you failed an exam, do you carry on revising it for the 6 weeks up to results?
For the first time I came out of an exam yesterday and pretty sure I’ve failed it (BPT).
All this exam content goes into my short term memory and I can guarantee in 6 weeks time I’ll of forgotten it. Assuming a september resit I’d then have only another 6 weeks to get back up to the point I am now and then actually improve. Maybe this is a lot for some but I’ve come to the realisation I’m a slow learneworker lol.
So I’m thinking to keep on practising it from now. Just wondered if anyone else does this?

We're looking to put in a monitor for simple up/down/availability on our monitoring server. Since this is intended to let us know if the monitoring server becomes unavailable, we want something cloud hosted, ideally with an agent-based checkin from the node to the cloud service (we don't want to open the server up to external polling).
We're not looking to monitor more than that node so we're essentially looking for a service that is happy to provide service for a single node.
Does anyone have any suggestions on vendors we could take a look at?

My boyfriend and I have been together for 5 years. As the title states- he just figured out now that he’s addicted to porn and jerking off.
For a little context on why and how he figured this out- a few nights ago we were out with some friends drinking. As like a lot of people when drinking him and I both get horny. While we were out he kept making sexual remarks towards me, feeling me up and made it seem like he was down to have sex. Well when we got home- I tried to make a move onto him because he’s always complaining that I never take that initiative. Well I did and he completely blew me off. (He’s done this 9/10 times when I’ve wanted sex and made a move first which is why I stopped trying however he gets mad and VERY PUSHY when I say no to him when he wants it.) I let it go and we just watched a show together. He then says he’s getting up to go to the washroom because he doesn’t feel good- I assumed he had too much to drink which is why he wasn’t wanting anything (I know whisky dick is a thing) anyways after sometime of him being in the washroom I went to check on him to make sure he’s alright. He had the door open a bit and when I walked in he had a full hard on and he was watching porn. Seeing that shit crushed me and made me disgusted. Especially after I tried to initiate things. I went back to bed and he follows me- sits down and tells me the type of porn he was watching when I didn’t ask. He said he was gonna go back and finish himself off because he had blue balls so I said fuck it and just do it together. Surprise surprise he couldn’t keep a hard on. I don’t understand how he could blow me off then have a full hard on while doing it himself and watching porn then tell me he’s gonna go finish himself off but he couldn’t stay hard with me??
After a long night and day of me staying up drinking with some online friends- it didn’t leave my mind. I made him come home from work early and we talked about it. He finally told me how serious it is and how he’s realized he’s addicted. After 5 years of dating he NEVER TOLD ME. I knew he would jerk off but not to the extend that he does and i thought to the videos he would take of us not porn. It is around 3-4 sometimes more times a day. He said even at work. I feel disgusted with myself, I feel like I don’t even know this person anymore , I feel like the whole relationship had been a lie. He says he doesn’t even do it because he’s horny and that he does it because he’s “bored and it’s a habit.” I’ve asked him to talk to a therapist about it and he’s very much on the fence and doesn’t like the idea.
The only reason i found out now and not earlier is because i just moved in with him a few months ago. His mom now knows as well and she thinks it’s normal/doesn’t believe in addiction. I’ve told him that if he does it one more just out of “boredom or habit” and not because he’s actually horny he’s getting physical help or I’m leaving.
But what the hell do I do… how do I deal with this. I feel like it’s me that’s the problem - I’m crushed, I feel so gross and hella self conscious now… All advice would be very much appreciated! Sorry this is so long- if you read please please give opinions/help.
Edit- I know I’m not bad at sex (not to be cocky) but don’t tell me you’re only watching videos of us when you aren’t. I don’t hate porn- but i do think It’s do fake and unrealistic. I also don’t like that he watched “thick blonde girls with fat asses” most the time and that’s literally my build. (He told me he could jerk off to ANYTHING though..)

Hello po doctors, I've been thinking if I will push through in going midyear pediatrics residency in our province. I passed last March 2023 and I would not like to go on moonlighting talaga. Pero parang half-hearted din naman ako mag mid-year kasi I've heard you have a different timeline or even does not have proper batchmates.
Is it better to pursue midyear this july-august or wait next year (january) for regular cycle? Please someone advice me huhu thank you

Occasionally, I'll make jokes about being a little gay around family/friends and sometimes people respond with "aren't we all". When they say it, it feels dismissive even though I don't think they mean it like that. I want to think it's thier way of being supportive, but it feels the same as when someone talks over me to end the conversation. It took me a long time to even be able to say things like that around the people I'm comfortable with.
Does anyone else experience this when they talk about thier queerness? Have you had someone say this to you and when did you think?

I picked up an LG 34gp83a-b recently and I want to give my two cents about ultrawide. I want to focus on the "cons" people usually bring up when talking about ultrawide monitors. So here goes my tech-illiterate half-assed assessment.
Is ultrawide for you? If you are a PC gamer and play the titles I play, then yes, absolutely.
Sim racing titles are way better on ultrawide screens. It does not compare to triple screens in terms of visibility, of course, but the hassle, costs, space and power consumption are much lower in comparison to a triple screen setup when using monitors that are at the same quality and performance levels. I can see the exit of many more corners than before, allowing for better throttle application.
FPS games are also benefit a lot from the extra pixels at the side. Obviously, if you are the super competitive type you'll want to go for one of those 1080p 360hz monitors, but if you are over 30, starting to bald and you just want to have a good time while still being decent at the game, this is much better than 16:9 monitors. In the specific case of the LG 34gp83a-b you can still be very competitive anyways; it's not like there's anything about this monitor holding you back from being much better than the average player. We can agree that most of us would rather enjoy games this way.
RTS: Tried it in AOE2 it feels like cheating. You can get away without having to move the camera at all times and you don't rely on the map AS much. However, double clicking a unit to select the same type will of course gather many more units you wouldn't be able to see otherwise. This can be both a pro and a con depending on what you are used to.
So what about the "cons"?
Well, I don't get it. Many people say "it's too much in your peripheral vision", but this isn't true if you sit at the right distance from the screen. However, how is this worse than not seeing anything there at all? I feel it's much better to have the option than not. You can also train your brain to gather more information from your peripheral vision.
The same goes for "I get black bars in some content". Well, it's either black bars or the wall behind your monitor. It does not make an actual difference in terms of what you are looking at, which would probably result in wasted money for people who are mainly going to use it for content consumption like such, but then again, it's the benefit of being able to use both ultrawide and non-ultrawide options with one single purchase, instead of only being able to use 16:9 resolutions and missing out where the benefits can be appreciated.
Performance wise, people say it might be too much for their systems. However, this is not exclusive to ultrawide screen. 4k on a 27 inch has a bigger impact than WQHD at 34 inch. It's all about knowing what resolution you'll be running.
Actual con
Pricing and panel types. Yeah, you can get affordable 34 inch monitors, but you'll be limited to VA panels in that case, which might not be a con for people who like VA panels anyways. If money is not an issue and you want fast 34" IPS panels, I'd recommend either the LG 34gp83a-b or the BenQ Mobiuz ex3415r. Not going to talk about 49" since I have never seen one in person.
In conclusion
It's about unlocking more options with one single purchase. A 21:9 monitor can do what a 16:9 can do, but not the other way around. Most games have 21:9 support, and by most I mean, the vast majority of them. If you are not playing every single obscure game that crosses your eyes which might not support UW resolutions, you'll be totally fine.

Does anyone else notice this thing where they will come up to you in a way that indicates they want attention then they'll just sit there just barely out of reach? Like you have to move just a tad from wherever you're at to pet them? I have 3 from different backgrounds and ages and they all do this. Anyone else?

My girlfriend was diagnosed with complex PTSD. She recently started working post covid at a job that requires 3 days in office a week. At first it was going well, but she has bad days/weeks where she is not able to go in for the 3 days and needs to work from home for additional time. Work has been pushing against this some, and the stress of fighting that and trying to handle new doctors and get the paperwork to request reasonable accommodation has spiraled the health problems into making it next to impossible to get out of the house period now.
​
Does anyone have advice or suggestions on what we can do?
​
She is pursuing reasonable accommodation for fully remote work, but they are going to fight her on it and insist that the job can't be done fully remote, so it isn't a "reasonable" accommodation. Which is of course BS, since it was fully remote for a couple years, and everyone is now in the office on different days hardly seeing each other to begin with. But I don't think we have the energy/appetite to fight this, and the job is likely to be lost.
​
What she really needs is likely a year or so to recover & get therapy and stuff, then to return to a more laid back, ideally remote work situation, where we can be closer to family. But I'm not sure what kinds of options and stuff there are. I don't imagine unemployment will pay under these circumstances if she leaves work. I don't know if maybe social security would. Or what other options we might have in general. Any advice would be very appreciated.

Hi, just what it says on the tin - I have been gifted the whole library of books from Free League's Symbaroum RPG, and the art and setting are fantastic - but my group would likely be more receptive if I used the Ruins of Symbaroum 5e base for it instead.
Has anyone tried running the adventure modules/campaigns for OG Symbaroum using Ruins instead? Does it convert fairly easily? Any snags I should be aware of?

Does anyone have any BLW recipes/meal ideas for our vegan baby? Thanks!!

I’m heading to Nashville for the CMA fest and this is my first time going to the event. I’m curious about the fanfare X meet and greet… Does anybody have any experience with these? I’m wondering if I’m going to be spending my days on endless lines. Do I need to get there first thing in the morning if there’s going to be a meet and greet of someone I want to see later in the afternoon? I know it’s first come first serve so I really don’t know how I should plan my days. Any advice welcome.

I (21 F) met this new friend (20 F) last year in uni because we were sharing classes. We befriended two others Alice and Gina, both names are fake (21 F and 20 F) since all four of us were sharing classes. Let's call the toxic friend Claire. So, for context, I grew up in an upper-middle-class household, went to an all girls private school, summer trips, I rarely ever look at the price tag unless its a luxury purchase, and my family (distant relatives and aunts and uncles) is considered to be somewhat part of 'high society' in where I'm from, and I am very blessed to be brought up this way and I love to give and offer people little things (like paying for lunch or coffee, giving them snacks, small little gifts if they wanted something at the store, and they couldn't afford it). And I do that to keep on my grandfather and father's legacy of generosity. I attend a public but distinguished university while most my friends from high school go to a private university. Where I'm from, university is completely free, and the give you around 266$ USD monthly for four years. So, most people prefer attending public universities for these perks. Now, you could assume that many people from different backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses attend this university since it is free and pays students.
Alice, Gina, and Claire all went to public schools, but Gina comes from an upper-middle-class family and is very similar to me when it comes to beliefs and connections. Alice's father is pretty famous, so you can assume that she's doing well for herself too, but her parents rarely pay for anything regarding her since she has many siblings. Claire on the other hand, comes from a lower-middle-class family (which none of us care about tbh), and according to her she's always 'broke'. Usually, Gina and I take care of the bill when we go out to eat or when we get coffee because we know about Claire and Alice's situation, and we don't want them to feel belittled.
Lately, Claire has been seeing me and Gina talk about similar experiences about visiting different countries, luxury items, fancy restaurants , etc.. I could feel Claire envy the friendship that was growing between me and Gina. Claire started talking about HER experience in traveling, yet, she mentioned that she has never traveled before. Another thing she kept talking about was how much she hated certain luxury brands because 'she doesn't like their leather' or 'it's too cheap'. None of us minded her new personality we just thought that she was trying to blend in; therefore, we tried avoiding these topics when we are around her.
Claire got a boyfriend (24 M) who is studying to become a pilot and lives in a small town. He boyfriend is a butthole. They have been on again off again since she was in high school (creepy dude dating a high schooler I know). He is only with her because of the sexual tension, and she is the only girl willing to do anything with him. All my social media accounts are private and I only accept people that I know. Recently, I got a DM on instagram from a fake account calling me beautiful and he would love to date me. I instantly blocked the account out of respect for my boyfriend, and I am assuming it is Claire's boyfriend because of what she told me the next day. Claire and I were walking towards our class and she said "Hey, my boyfriend thinks you look mid". The only way he would see how I look like is my instagram profile picture. I found it creepy tbh, but Claire kept telling our friend group about how her boyfriend thinks I look. I found that weird.
Personally, I have had friends who did the same things in the past, so I brushed it off. After that incident, Alice reaches out to me while we're on break and tells me that Claire is using my name on twitter spaces to meet people. Remember when I said my family is considered high society? The people Claire talked to knew who I was and my family is, yet she kept pretending to be me. She was talking about my trips during the summer, my obsession with F1, my exes, how 'sad I felt after my dad died', and many more details I haven't even mentioned to her nor are the correct (some stories about how I hooked up with girls when I was in high school, BUT IM STRAIGHT idc about anyone's sexuality, but THE LIES).
I pretended I didn't know just to see how far she would go in her little skit. I cut my hair and got layers, she did the same but she has curly hair so it always looks messy. I bought a new laptop, she wants to but couldn't afford the same one I bought, but bought a new one regardless. I bought an iPad, she did the same. I listen to certain artists, she started listening to them, I organize my schedule in un around my schedule (piano lessons, appointments, Grand Prix, and etc..) i and take classes with profs that like me and I've taken with before, but she copies my exact schedule and blames me for 'shitty classes' and 'shitty times'. I've been a F1 fan ever since I was a kid because of my father. I've been to multiple GPs with him and created amazing memories. She started watching F1 recently and only cheers for Carlos Sainz because "he's hot". I didn't mind it until she started talking about how she loved attending GPs as a kid. Gina was confused when Claire said that and asked her who her favorite driver was as a child, she answers "anyone in Ferrari", Gina asked if it was Logan Sergeant. and Claire says "yes! he's my favorite!" absolute silence after.
A few days ago, she missed the bus, and I offered to drive her back home, she refused because she lived a 40 min drive away from our uni. I kept telling her it was fine and I did not mind at all, and my aunt lives in the same area and I was planning on popping in for a visit anyway. I wasn't, but I didn't want her to feel bad for me dropping her off. She agreed. We get into my car (a Benz I've been driving ever since I was 17), and she starts complaining about how 'this is the cheapest car she has been in'. I nodded and smiled because I didn't want to comment on anything. The whole car ride was her talking about her luxurious trip during the break, which was all fake. When I dropped her off, her house was humble, and she mentioned that she still lived with her family and the house was rented. I never asked, but if you are going on extravagant and luxurious trips you could afford to own the house at least.
After that happened I went home and texted her about our group project that was due later that week she was the only one who didn't do her part. She said she'll do it later that night, I told her its okay just add it to the slides whenever she's done. At 2am, she keeps spamming the group project's group chat saying that she has stomach ache and cannot do the work (btw she's dramatic her stomach ache is caused by the food that she eats and multiple doctors told her that when I took her to the hospital). The students in the group project felt bad and told her to do her part later. She kept crying saying that she was too stressed and has more important things to take care of, but no one was getting the hint that she wanted someone to do her part. I emailed my professor telling her the whole story, and the professor replied saying that Claire will not be graded unless she does her end of the bargain. I read all Claire's texts and didn't reply because I was sick and tired of her act. Later, she tweets about how her 'friend is toxic and only cares about herself' all because I didn't text her 'Get well soon!! xx' like wtf.
​
Honestly, I just what to know what to do, like, she's toxic towards me, and she's always copying me and pretending to be me. One idea I had was to call my lawyer and just sue her for pretending to be me, but I'll need some sort of proof. I just want to know what to do when it comes to her copying me, if I should drop her or not, and if I should, how do I drop her?

I keep having dreams about a friend from highschool, who I haven't seen in a year. I graduated in 2021 so we haven't spent significant time together since then.
I don't keep a dream journal so there are some instances that I can't remember, but here is a back story of who this person is and then a reccurance of the dreams I can remember.
My friend: Josie and I were friends since 5th grade. We were very close through middle school and the beginning of highschool. Then, I made some bad choices and our friendship fell apart. By senior year we reformed a tentative friendship but she admitted we would never be as close as we were. I accepted that, as there were consequences to my actions. We still had inside jokes and talked about the movies we liked together. We were both pretty stubborn people so we would bicker a lot. We graduated and said goodbye on good terms. I've seen her while home over break a few times. I haven't seen her since last summer. Now over the past month she keeps appearing in my dreams.
Dream 1: She got hired at my job and moved into the apartment directly below mine. (This dream is the furthest away and the details are fuzzy)
Dream 2: We were running away (I don't know what from, perhaps our home town, that neither of us liked??) and got a hotel and just... hung out?
Dream 3: (I remember this one this most clearly) One of my profs commented on how I actually bought the textbook and I tried to explain why, saying that I had ADHD and that the paper textbook was easier to focus on. In my dream she was sitting at the desk next to me and disputed me, essentially implying that that wasn't a good reason.
None of these dreams seem connected except for Josie being in them.
Does anyone have any ideas on why these dreams are happening or what they mean?
