It seems that I'm in the minority opinion but I think exposure on a prime Netflix series tuned in by "30 million households" is quite an impressive offer and the compensation (or lack there of) is not important. Declining suc

I think a good solution would be that the base price of .com domain registration go up from 10$ to 100$ or even 1000$ per year for premium domains. Sure, money.com would still be sold on secondary markets for more, but the vast majority of

Healthy people dream several times a night and don't remember most of their dreams upon waking. Have someone monitor your sleep and wake you up when observing REM. There's a good chance you'll remember the dream you're c

I still don't get it. Why do the two waves add up? Why can't they just coexist? And if they do add up, doesn't that mean that the atoms are piggyback riding on the light wave and essentially slowing it down which shouldn'

Yeah. Major sources of everyday microplastics are: 1. Washing synthetic clothes in the washing machine 2. Normal wear and tear of tires This made me go from being very alarmed to the realization that if these things causes major harm, we wo

The flip side of this is that a single negative review offsets hundreds of positive ones. I've literally had to stop using my airbnb account that had dozens of possitive reviews after a single bad review left in bad faith (owner privet

This illustrates that we teach languages "wrong" or rather that we don't take advantage of the innate part of the brain that children use to learn their primary language. My pet theory is that it isn't a decline of brain
