I've had near violent reactions from people when I said "I can hear you chewing." I was a mild and meek kid, and this was after they acknowledged the noise they made. Any subconscious behavior has to be controlled with a lot

Everything turns clockwise from a specific perspective... that's what is interesting here, perspective and consistency.

I've tried all kinds of approaches. The only ones that ever worked were based purely on the person communicated to, not how I communicated. (ie, the person cared) I've had nice conversations about it, the person listened, but was

I have a close relationship with a Chinese national that is going through the US immigration process. His view on situations like this are enlightening. He knows the difference between true dictatorships and political wranglings in the news

This system was recommended to me from an old veteran manufacturing expert that was one of the consultants on an ERP implementation. The brilliance that this brought was anyone could easily pick up the inventory and restocking process. But

According to this article, Canada rejected her entry as well. Maybe it's not just the US, but this person actually had a real issue with her visa and her travel plans were not prepared well. https://www.bbc.com/news&#x2

I have a friend who is a foreigner, and is in a master's CS degree program in the US. He's married to an American woman as of a few months ago. What is the reasonable amount of time it should take for him to be able to get a green

When I see a card magic trick, for all intents and purposes it "appears" magic. Once I learn _one_ card trick, I start to realize it's not magic. Regardless if I can prove anything or not. This same applies here with ghosts.

You are missing a critical point. Before this, there was likely no proof that people could share or rely on to question if _any_ ghost could be an illusion. This is very important to future critical thinking because this gave people evidenc

This seems like a slippery slope towards bog-standard social media. Currently, HN is the only place on the internet I am willing to interact with others _because_ it lacks the "social layer" you are recommending. The focus on user

I wonder if there are multiple different causes. Because I have had migraines regularly since I was a little kid and sleep was the only cure. (Hours of crying until I'd pass out) But when I got to a teen I tried every pain killer I cou

This question speaks to the biggest communications battle I have had for the past 20+ years in my career. I have a coworker that uses his quick talking ability to manipulate, accuse and scam his way through meetings and his daily work. He i

Why is there so much marketing to support nuclear? The reason people don't want it in their back yard is because disasters are so drastic (even if rare), the waste nearly permanent (and one of the most toxic we produce on earth), and t

I think the reason center is so hard for people is that you have to first understand "what" you are centering. > Text, inline box, block box, image/object, etc... Then, what do you want to center it in relation to? > Pa
