Different parts of your body can feel hotter or colder, because the sensation of temperature is not about your internal body temp, but the heat transfer at the skin. Hands with a pair of gloves on will feel colder than e.g. armpits under 3

Sounds like a great way to introduce mold problems into your home. Also insulating the body is great and all, but then all your surfaces are cold. Every time you open a door, your hand gets freezing. Your sofa is cold. Your chair is cold. Y

Be careful with this: people moving away from home to universities are some of the most at-risk for feeling lonely, for developing depression and suicidal tendencies. It can absolutely help some people, but for others it can make them feel

I think the most important thing is just putting yourself in those uncomfortable situations. Even if it's awkward, even if you feel embarrassed for whatever reason, you'll have learned a bit more about how to interact with people.

Nah, commit messages should be including the 'why', not just the 'what'. The what is usually fairly clear already.

Education designed around sitting quietly in classrooms, which is the opposite of how you get boys to excel (in general), but which is good for girls is a big problem. And there have been some efforts to begin addressing this, in some sch

I distinctly remember my parents, before satellite navigation systems were common (let alone phones) having endless arguments over bad map reading when on family trips. It's not a skill that was lost to technology, it's a skill th

I don't buy roadmaps, but I have a ton of orienteering maps for when I go hiking. I really love orienteering with a proper waterproof map & compass.

I would never use an airbnb for e.g. a city trip, but booking whole cottages in the country through airbnb has always been great for me. Prices are usually totally reasonable as well.

If you get stuck in traffic on the way home from work, you might have your heating on for an extra 30+ minutes unnecessarily. If you decide to have a lazy day and sleep in, you can turn it on when you wake up instead of potentially 2+ hours

White space isn't wasted space. It makes the page infinitely more readable to limit line lengths. Yes, you could have reduced your window width before. No, you shouldn't have to do that to get a comfortable reading experience.
