Obviously it counts as 'screen time', as you're using a screen. But 'screen time' is not the right statistic for each question. "Does screen time affect eyesight?" Yes, this counts as screen time. "Is

I am an adventurous eating and love trying new foods. Natto made me retch when I tried it. And it made me retch again when I unknowingly ate it a week later hidden in some rice. This is not gonna be a staple in the European diet unless the

I did Montessori from age 4-8 and then transitioned because of a move. Montessori worked really well for me. I have always been 'ahead' and I could explore my own interests. I was never bored in school which is something that chan

I work at a large 'mechatronics' company, where software is just one discipline - we basically have engineers from any discipline you can think of, but mechanical engineers are our bread and butter. Systems engineering is a huge t

5 is appropriate for Lego, but in my experience from volunteering at a teach-kids-to-code club, is almost always to young for programming. If only because they can't read yet, but also their eye for detail (I have seen two 7-year olds

A lot of algorithms that used to fall under 'AI' are now considered 'just good software'. As soon as we really understand how it works, we no longer call it AI. (And it becomes predictable). "AI" is to "Co

For me it's really easy. I like to keep a roof over my head, feed my cat, and send my kids to school. Also whoever is using my services is likely using them to make some money themselves. Why should I work for free if they aren't.

I think you're using a different definition of 'problem'. Maybe a better word is 'goal'. The point is: you have to know why you are doing something.

It's not giving you more knowledge though. It's giving you the exact same amount of knowledge - you're just retaining it longer.

I guess it depends on your definition of 'extremely difficult', but I can confirm that in many European countries, you can't 'just' fire someone. You either have to have firm proof that the person is severely underp

But isn't that a completely unfair comparison? "Yeah, if you disregard all the poor people that struggle to stay alive, us rich people are generally much richer". I think your exact statement is probably true. Because most Eu

That was my first feeling too. But my kid is 5 and really into Lego, and I have changed my opinion and I now actually think this Lego is really, really cool, because it offers significantly more possibilities (and colors!). The pieces are a

For me Ender's game was completely ruined when I learned about the controversy around the author, because to me, homophobia goes completely against the message of the books. So it no longer works for me.

Absolutely. There is no expense (I take it as of any kind, or are we just talking 'it's paid for'?) I would assume that at least during my dream vacation, my dream vacation would make me really happy. So 'really happy&#x

I would argue that by definition 'your dream vacation' would include the company that would take part in your ideal vacation.

> It's not "caused" by the culture or the environment, but by parenting. Isn't the way people parent something mainly determined by culture and the environment?

The vast majority of people that are colour blind primarily have trouble with green/red. I would say green/brown falls under that category.

My kids (Montessori) school has horizontal classes (3 age groups in one class) for exactly this reason. From ages 3-12 they go through the cycle of being youngest, middle and oldest 3 times, teaching them valuable 'soft skills' su

I assume that wherever you are has the cut off that determines in which school year a kid is sorted is on January 1st (which is not a universal truth), and your point is that she's also older than her class mates?

I realized this pretty early on in life. There is an unlimited supply of stuff to read - I'm not wasting my precious time on a book I don't like.

But based on the first 50 pages, statistically, the chance of this book clicking for you is lower than the chance the next book will click.

'3+' covers 3, but also 4, 5, 6 and 7. That average really doesn't tell you much on how it scales.

An enjoyable read but pretty clear what type of tech job the author holds. "We won't say much about desk top programmers" and we better not even mention embedded engineers. There is a world outside web, ya know!

I would argue that 12:30 hours after midpoint is exactly that: there is the midpoint, and then you add 12 hours and 30 minutes. So 12:30 PM would be 00.30 military time according to that logic. As a non-native am/pm user: it's con
