Sure, but poverty is a lack of money. The inability to sustain oneself healthily. Once you have "sufficient" money, having even more won't make you happier.

Hasn't won any wars with unlimited objectives. Where there is no clear end goal, because regime change and installing a friendly government isn't really clear and actionable.

The first Gulf War had limited objectives, was a massive success and took only 6 months.

Meh, recently a korean team was in the news for curing cancer. Reality is of course that they simulated a single protein in a precursor pathway... etc... which could possibly contribute into a future concept for a treatment against certain types of cancer.

Knowing medical affixes and suffixes will go a long way. Even medications will have some naming conventions. https://www.mometrix.com/academy/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Drug-Suffixes-Cheat-Sheet-Sorted-by-Drug-Type.pdf

Focusing on anatomy and physiology will help you understand not just what things are, but why they work. Technically you can use a stethoscope on someone's neck to diagnose the cause of a sudden blind eye, but only if you understand the branches of the coratid artery.

"I don’t want to take any drugs to study better" Why is this even a thought? Why read for 3 hours after your shift? If you want to expand your nursing skills start there. Look into topics that you deal with everyday. Learn more about the commonly prescribed medications. Don't worry about the more uncommon ones for now. Build on the stuff you already know, that will make learning easier, more interesting and more applicable in practice. Leave the rote memorization to overworked residents.

Look up nursing groups on-line or in your area, see what they have to say. Probly more skilled advice and experience to let you know what to focus on and what not.

I'm lucky enough to work in an academic care setting where initiative is appreciated, but your mileage may vary.

Good enough to contact one's consumer organizations or government watchdogs.

Yes, but that is far less safe, which means less people are willing to take that risk, which means they will choice to go by car instead.

Just look at Smart Speakers. Basically the early AI at home. People just used them to set timers and ask about the weather. Even though it was capable of much more. Google and others were unable to monetize them for this reason and have mostly given up. (Protip: if you have a google speaker and kids, ask about the animal of the day. It's an addition during COVID times for kids learning at home.)

But people also aren't used to AI yet. Most will still google for something, some already skip that step and have ChatGPT search and summarize. I would not be surprised if the internet of the future is just plain text files for the AI agents to scrape.

Sure, but this option is not mutually exclusive.

Bike lanes reduce congestion by giving people other options than travelling by car. Their removal is certain to increase congestion, especially in more densely populated areas where you normally put bike lanes down.

Sounds like enough material for a 3 hour youtube documentary
