I hate when people ring the doorbell. I'd rather they just walk in so I don't have to get up.

One qualitative difference is that the child's 30,000 hours is realtime, interactive, and often bespoke to the individual and context. All the videos on youtube are static and impersonal.

Maybe insurance companies with a good network of plate readers decide to increase your premiums because you park in a neighborhood known for auto break-ins. Or they deny you entirely because your commute takes you on a windy road known to h

I had to disable these alerts on my devices after some similar spurious experiences. It's too bad there was no way to simply change the alert sound or volume because I might have done that.

In my experience this sort of thing is definitely worth it due to the knowledge and insights you will gain. However, monetarily, expect to spend 2-3x the cost of the commercial offering (you will go through at least 2 and likely 4 or more r

If the game state is "meaningfully changed" each iteration then it is considered a non-deterministic loop and it cannot be shortcut.

Never while turning right on red. I was rear ended once by a fellow who was looking at his phone and did not notice me and the line of stopped cars waiting at a red light. But sometimes what can you do?

I agree that in many cases home ownership is a better long term wealth strategy than renting. But not in all cases, of course. If Mr. Mortgage is moving every 2-3 years and acquiring a new mortgage each time he may have been better off rent

Sure, I'll agree that there may be times when the "extra" caution is unwarranted by the situation at the intersection. But by doing this every time I ingrain it as an automatic habit which greatly reduces my ongoing risk of f

The first stop is for the crosswalk. (I might do this even when the light is green if there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk since never hitting a pedestrian is a rule of mine.) If I see a pedestrian in or approaching the crosswalk I wait h

It's what I was taught to do in driver's ed. I know of no state where turning right on a red light is compulsory so I don't see how coming to a complete stop at any point could possibly be considered illegal.

It's probably not universally necessary to jaywalk. However, I am against this on the grounds of logistics. I understand and accept the need to have a license and display an identifier while operating a vehicle, but I think this would

Odds are I haven't since I'm always careful to stop twice when turning right on red. (Once before the crosswalk, and again at the far side of the crosswalk to check for cross traffic before executing the turn.)

That definitely seems like the least ethical response to finding a free donut loophole? Unless it's not a loophole at all, but just a marketing tactic deployed by the coffeemaker.

Why not just come to a full stop? It's presumably dark out at 3am so you may have missed a pedestrian or a vehicle with no headlights. It only takes an extra second or two to stop and look around.

Frankly I'd rather just get a ticket when I speed by a traffic camera than rely on the discretion of a random police officer who might just be looking for a pretense to search my vehicle or hassle me in some other way.

After 30 years Mr Mortgage's depreciated house needs a new roof and thousands of dollars in repairs. Meanwhile the property taxes have gone up every year so he still ends up working until he dies just to keep a roof over his head.
