With a manual car, it was common to downshift and use the engine to decelerate. I’m wondering if electric vehicles might actually cause a return to a third pedal to re-add some of the fine tuned controls that a manual transmission allowed.

Okay I didn’t have access to paywalled article before. The NYT article is about one specific study that’s a review of archival material. It doesn’t actually seem to suggest that it was a “publicity stunt” or “theater” as OP suggested. Rathe

Yeah. Someone said that someone else posted a link. Refuting it and saying there’s proof without actually providing it is…a challenge.

A weird tech-related aspect to this for me. A few weeks ago I saw a viral video of his daughter saying that the final show really was his “funeral” and that he knew it would be his last show. I’m not a fan of his really so the video kinda p

The paradigm used to be that “late at night” means kids aren’t likely to watch. So, you had a bit of room to get away with things. Now, that doesn’t apply in the same way when things are on demand. So there’s still a desire for the types of

Yeah but if NPR is defunded then this isn’t a story. /s The article sometimes throws in the term Obamacare — is it still popularly called that? And do most Americans know it’s the same thing?

This is cool! Though, in canada that link breaks and there's no mention of it. There should be a way to do this 'manually' with an ebook paired with the audio book. As simple as timestamps embedded in the text?

That's switching 'back'. People that want vapes/ecigarettes want them for specific reasons and smoked tobacco has way too many other problems.

Vapes aren't just for adults to quit smoking tobacco. They're a nicotine-delivery system. It's a way to use a legal stimulant. The flavors would make it potentially more enjoyable. I don't think vape kids are ever switch

manipulation or motivation? I suppose it's blurry. But, I think the point is that once you get the kids into the habit (or help them build the skill) they'll maintain it later on. Even encouraging reading together has societal val
