If all you want is a shack on some land you own, you could do that for much less than 80,000 man hours. Land in NE Arizona sells for a few hundred dollars an acre. There's no zoning and very little in the way of regulation.

You mention self-help books and videos, but have you tried talking to a therapist? The video watching could be an avoidance behavior and they could help you figure out the reasons and how to cope if that's the case.

I think what happens when things like a dirty glass by the sink get used as the reason for a relationship failing is a little more subtle and drawn out. Seeing the glass by the sink probably triggers some repetitive negative thought about t

I think scaling is presented as the main - or actually only - reason for automating because it's actually the only reason for automating in the game. Nothing that you can automate in the game can be done incorrectly.

The first scenario in the FAQ sounds more like a pinch-flat to me. This happens when you ride up a curb or over a rock and the tire compresses, pinching the tube between the rim and the curb. Running higher tire pressures, using a product l

My understanding is that the air moving over the top of the wing is compressed against the air above it in the atmosphere, like a venturi. This may be extremely simplified but it's what we were taught in flight school.
