Sadly, Falco's Rock Me Amadeus came out several years before this revelation. I wonder what additional color would have been added to the song had it been known beforehand.
IIRC she named it not after herself, but her parents or grandparents...who of course share her name.
I think it's probably better to amend it to, "if it was covered in poop would you get rid of it and not replace it?"
Talk to your manager.
Shortly after I was hired, my manager told me I should feel free to decline any meeting that didn't seem useful, or that if it was preventing me from getting "real" work done.
Not parent, but when a minute isn't quite enough, 77 seconds might do the trick. Multiples of eleven are quick to enter, and with a simple nuker with no "minute" button, 66s is easier than 1:00.
On the one hand, that sucks, on the other...well, what really sucks is that it's probably necessary given the state of public transit and bikeability. (Haven't been to Nashville, so I can't comment on public transportation there.)
Any city in the US
I don't think that's correct, for example, San Francisco:
On December 11, 2018, the Board of Supervisors passed an ordinance (the “Ordinance”) eliminating required parking minimums citywide for all uses.

This does exist in major US cities, especially the older (by US standards) ones. I'm in San Francisco, in a "good" neighborhood, and restaurants, groceries, bars, and multiple forms of public transit are all a short walk away. This is very different in car centric suburbs/cities though.
Have you encountered modern shifters? They're fairly involved.
Electronic shifting, hydraulic brakes, liberal use of sealed cartridge bearings, carbon fiber parts requiring strict torque specs...these are definitely different than 70's friction shift ten-speed bikes.
Or, they're about to collect their paycheck from the photoshoot they just participated in.
People often complain about San Francisco's public transit
and to be sure, it's not perfect by any means (multiple separate agencies doesn't help). But the historic streetcars are pretty neat!
They're painted with the livery of various historic streetcars from all over the country (and a few international, I think). Best of all, they run alongside the modern fleet
same route, same fare.
In San Francisco, a ticket for any event at the big arena (Chase Center
home of the Warriors) gives you free Muni transportation: https://www.sfmta.com/fares/your-chase-center-event-ticket-your-muni-fare
It's a start.
