Not having children doesn't mean you're not allowed to criticize parents for poor behaviour. Regardless, I am a parent to two young children and have done the morning drop offs to school/day care every morning for the last 6

You can change your behaviour and make sure you leave yourself enough time to get your kids out the door on time.

"Morning dropoff is stressful, to say the least, we are always late , my kids never cooperate,..." I know this is just a throwaway comment in the article but my god does it bug me when parents use their children as an excuse for

I'm sorry but I don't understand the argument you're making, or why you think contributing to universal health care would mean you care about your neighbours child more than they do. Bad things can and do happen to people n

Have tried this a couple of times with zero relief unfortunately. I have conductive hearing loss due to otosclerosis (plaque buildup on stapes) so that might be why it doesn't work for me.

Ignoring the obvious one that you can pay for things you don't currently have enough money for (bad idea in general), I pay for almost everything on a visa card for travel points.

This doesn't pass the smell test without more evidence. a) how do you know 'tons of obese people' b) how many of them have you actually seen do one real push ups let alone 100.

Ok, I agree with that, the "MRR" comment was useless feedback on useless feedback!

Speaking as someone who is trying to bootstrap a product, constructive criticism is worth its weight in gold. OP's statement was critical, and included no valuable feedback which is why it's being downvoted. "How many NBA co

I don't know if this is the case here, but I think even if you don't really "need" the money, using Kickstarter can be a great way to get more exposure for a project as well as pre-selling/validating a product which

Most side projects earn negative dollars over 11 years so that growth over 11 years is probably in the top 0.1% of side project earnings. Very few people can say they grew a side project business into a $200k+ a year business.

I've been happy with pCloud which has Win/Linux/Mac/Android/iOS clients.

Modern linear accelerators (linacs) all have an ion chamber in the beam line (2 actually I think) to measure the instantaneous output of the machine.
