Or, if the stress of doing everything they do is too much, and interferes with your ability to work and do other things you once had the time to do.

They only became a “necessity” once they went mainstream and the world started evolving with vehicles becoming a part of everyday life.

I can certainly see the same thing happening with residential robotics.

I had a ball last more than 10 seconds.

This honestly sounds like a non-trivial strike against installing solar panels, especially if they’re installed on tall roofs.

I definitely wouldn’t want to have to clean them that often, or pay to have them cleaned that often.

If you’re spending only 10 minutes on them, then maybe you don’t have that many, and they’re not up high.

2. Even if brute force was a viable option for solving, an easy fix is to have a “submit” button when you think you’ve solved it (and that can track strikes for invalid submissions).

This is how most of Simon Tatham’s puzzles work, and that works well.

Like they do in commercials.

Under "Conclusions and Research Needs":

> Last, in terms of applications of the potential beneficial effects of coffee intake, it is worth studying whether introducing or initiating regular coffee consumption among current abstainers yields positive cardiovascular health benefits.

In other words, more study is needed to determine whether abstainers should start consuming caffeine.

Additionally, the study suggests much of the cardiovascular benefits are from non-caffeine compounds in coffee/tea:

> Although much of the evidence on caffeine derives from studies of coffee consumption, coffee contains numerous bioactive compounds beyond caffeine, including chlorogenic acids, diterpenes, trigonelline, and melanoidins. In large cohort studies, inverse associations between coffee intake and risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease have also been observed for decaffeinated coffee, supporting a role for noncaffeine components.

Tricky was probably my favorite, but they were all great.

Parent is being downvoted likely because their statement implies the “dozens” receiving letters are individually being sued, but that’s not the case.

My 2015 MBP has this exact same issue.

How are these things not publicly shamed out of existence?

It feels like each year lately has been a new Black Mirror episode.

My wife missed that word, and it said the correct word was “habit”.

I also did “baith” (for the same reason as OP), and ended up making it to 16, but I feel like I shouldn’t have, since I’ve never heard of “baith”. I was confused when it accepted it.

Ordered one off Ali Express, and after another couple months, it also started dying. So replaced it with a newer Roborock.

Didn’t bother when the second S5 started doing the same, just got a new Roborock.

Both new ones have been going well so far, and while it does seem to be good for replacing parts (I had another lidar part fail, and the replacement was easy), I was disappointed that replacing the battery didn’t fix the shut down issues.

Yeah, opening with:

Felt like an odd way to start the article.

Maybe OP is job farming?

You’re still making introversion out to be something that you should work at to compensate or fix, because not doing so would be unhealthy.

E.g. you exercise because if you don’t, you risk disease, cancer, and a host of other physical issues.

There’s nothing unhealthy about never striking up conversations with strangers.

There are more natural and organic ways to meet and interact with people you don’t know (many have been covered in other comments).

But striking up conversations with random strangers in public shouldn’t be equated with exercise.

E.g.

- Frequenting the same restaurants/stores (HT earlier sibling comment)

- Joining clubs/communities/churches

- Parents of kids’ friends

- Networking: Friends of family / family of friends / friends of friends

- Workplace (obviously)

I feel like this is how friendships/relationships happen more organically vs. the OP’s suggestion of talking to “someone waiting in line”.
