They have strict rules, but I’ve had no issues editing articles after my first error. It’s certainly not like posting an answer on Stack Overflow, where you will be downvoted and flamed for a correct-but-suboptimal answer.

I am not an electricity/wiring guy so maybe you can help me understand. I thought aluminum is dangerous to wire with because it is a fire hazard (I bought a home this year and this was a prominent warning in my reading). Is that becaus

Confirm in the network tab that you are going 100% local on lichess. My shot in the dark (I don’t contribute to their codebase) is that you’re offloading some analysis to Fishnet[1] I would rule that out first 1: https://lichess.

I was just having a conversation (argument) with my MIL about this. She claims that people have felt that SS would run out of money before they retire her entire life. Has this sentiment been tracked at all? I certainly feel like I (aged mi

My one HUGE gripe about Buteyko in particular is the nasal breathing bit. Breathing through your nose is good imo, but I don’t think it needs to be such an important goal all the time

A lot of the Buteyko studies suffer from small sample sizes unfortunately. I have heard good things about Buteyko from athletes but I’m not well-read on this. I think myofunctional therapy has more Western research done on it and is strongl

Full disclosure: my mother runs a practice in NYC and implements Buteyko a lot with patients. It’s called HappyMyo and I helped her set up the website. — I think Buteyko suffers from a marketing problem wherein it sounds really “eastern med

That is something I hadn’t even considered. That is super scary; Part of me thinks it’s inevitable. People famously lack any sort of empathy for the falsely accused until it happens to them, so why wouldn’t they vote for a “save the childre
