I had the opposite experience. Chemists on my family, so everything was dangerous. The PVC tubes were dangerous because of plasticisers, epoxy resins combined with other chemicals. Flame retardants on foams a big no no. Teflon pans getting

Ridiculous like everything politicians do. They could ban installation that is not precut with machines, or the usage of tools without dust handling but banning the entire field is just crazy. With today technology you can 3d scan the dimen

The problem with ad-free content is that rich people do not just want just "no adds". They do not want to be tracked, in order not to be stalked and harrassed by companies(or individuals like gold diggers or sellers or bankers). A

If you have to ask yourself this question. No, It is not. I read TAOCP out of curiosity long time ago. Has it been useful for me? Very much. But the usefulness came from abstract connections that clicked later in my life almost randomly. I

Oh, yeah, and if you make walking mandatory instead you will bring much more "benefits". One of the things I love about Germany is the Autobahns. If there is no speed limit, most of the time there are physical limitations like veh

You mean hundreds of Spanish soldiers with superior technology allied with tribes that were subjugated and enslaved by other Native American tribes? The Spaniards did not do it alone. This is a fact very easy to prove. It always shocks me t

20 minutes going, 20 returning is 40 minutes a day. Unless you live by the train station, it is 10 minutes going there, and you have to wait for the train, 2-5 minutes. That is at least an hour/day, 2 hours/day are not that far aw
