There are definitely a lot of families with sleep problems that could be solved if they read "Solve your child's sleep problem" by Richard Ferber (not just the famous two pages about baby sleep training). Many parents I talk

"Earth-like" just means terrestrial, as opposed to jovian. It means it has a rocky surface.

I've called police for ongoing violence twice, and in both cases the response time was shorter than this. This is one thing the police really knows how to do. See also https://leb.fbi.gov/image-repository/police-re

When I moved to San Francisco from Europe I had to take a drive test to get a US license. In every single intersection I did a rolling stop, and got like 15 minor "errors" on my score sheet. However, since I had no other errors I

Isn't the bigger story here that you were able to enter a country without a photo ID? Or did you not make the connection that it could simply compare you to the photo on your passport, like a person would do?

You are making guesswork drive a lot of your opinions here. Why can you buy more in bulk in person than when a truck drives to your building? The concept of "last mile" makes no sense for Amazon, since they will drive past your ad

Why exactly do you think in person shopping is better for the environment? Studies usually come out in favor of delivery. On top of that we live in an apartment building, and a single truck makes deliveries for dozens of, if not a hundred,

I live in lower Manhattan. Stores here aren't particularly cheap, but I haven't done a thorough comparison. Even if the stores were cheaper, the time savings would cover a pretty big difference. Having kids certainly increases the

We buy basically everything other than hot food from Amazon. Why is toilet paper special? Going in person to a warehouse style store like a grocery store or department store is becoming a quaint experience from the past (for us at least).

I took into account the position constraints you learn from the game after entering the word too. This is why "raise" beats "arise" for example.

I wrote a script that finds the word that gives the smallest average number of possibilities left (across all possible actual solutions) and came up with "raise". "cloth" is often a good second word, but it depends of co

The fact that the borrower can renegotiate lower only increases the premium charged for fixed rate loans. It's not free money or free insurance.

If that is the case, then banks in US are taking the same "ridiculous" trade by offering fixed rates to almost everyone, and will be decimated by any kind of interest surge. It's not clear to some countries stick almost exclu
