A sleep study is the gold standard, but sleep trackers like Oura reportedly getting pretty good and a lot cheaper and easier.

Beautifully put. To add to that, they need to win against the darkness every time. The darkness only needs to win once. I lost my brother in law to suicide. He left behind three yo…

The submission title is misleading; I'm not sure why the word "recorded" was dropped. The pilots have already been interviewed by the NTSB. The NTSB then asked for recorded intervi…

I was curious about this and looked it up on google trends. It looks like acetaminophen is the more commonly searched term. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=paracetamol,%…

Anecdotally all but one of the parents I know (including myself) prefer working remotely. I tried to find if there were any survey results and found a survey by Harris Poll on beha…

This was just an example where someone with no experience may have had an advantage. They would have had to learn as well, but wouldn’t be fighting against their muscle memory. We …

This is definitely true sometimes, but the “wrong” kind of experience can definitely hamper people. I have a highly skilled senior developer with a desktop app development backgrou…

Agreed, and that had a happier ending where they moved him to a sort of R&D position. I think this article pats itself on the back too much. They didn’t manage “Rick” and let him w…

Which this is not. He is making an offer to buy which the board has to approve. The title is wrong in this case.

Each use case is going to be different but my experience with containerization and managed Kubernetes has been fantastic. We have a small team (5 people) and have over time managed…

Kosher labelling is not mandatory. Mandating that all foods be either labelled as KOSHER or NON-KOSHER would be a better example, and something I hope nobody would support. Produce…

It's not binary. It's a trade-off that potentially decreases their capabilities and readiness. We might weigh the calculus differently (fewer dead whales) but it's not as simple as…

Fair points, but the comment "because the moderators volunteered" made me cringe. I have a great deal of respect and sympathy for mods because I've helped moderate other forums and…

We need to differentiate between fault and responsibility. Victoria may very well have been at fault, but the responsibility for steering the ship was management's and they appear …

Ignorance more than callousness appears to be the sin here. From snippets of communications posted with the mods it looks like they weren't really aware of what Victoria did for th…

This. There is a massive range in daycare from "your child will be alive when you come back" to "all our staff have degrees in childhood education" (and of course the associated pr…

Zebra mussels have had a noticeable effect on water clarity in Chicago harbors in the last ten years. When the light is right it's possible to see 20-30 feet down easily when the v…

I am not astonished iOS lacks parental controls but admit they would be useful. Establishing rules for my toddler is relatively easy when in the context of a physical object (e.g. …

Have you had any sync problems with OneDrive or Google Drive? After switching to OneDrive from Dropbox six months ago I've continuously had problems with OneDrive syncing correctly…

1. I cook primarily for control over a lot of factors (taste/health/cost/ingredients). I find the process enjoyable but it's not my primary motivation. 2. I make rough meal plans f…

The US Civil War was essentially fought over the right of states to unilaterally withdraw from the union (the answer was no). The constitution could be amended to explicitly allow …
