This is great advice, and included in the “Lifestyle” of losing weight is how you go about getting the food to eat. If you hate the food, it’s not sustainable, if you are starving all the time, it’s not sustainable, AND if you are spending 30 hours a week cooking, it’s not sustainable! Learning to cook multiple meals…

Also if you find your smile is a little too even and needs some chips to give it some interest, use your teeth! Actually its not that bad, if you push on the middle of the bottlecap with your molars, the cap bends up pretty easily and can be opened.

This is so true, but so scary to try and change. Telling people what you want, or even what you think you want, can be very humbling and vulnerable. Am I sure I want that? Do I want it enough to make it happen? What if I get there and realize I’m even worse at that? In the end though, the only person who will fight to…

Thank you for pointing this out! Negative effects on your social life are a real cost, measurable in dollars, when it comes to tightening the budget. You are prioritizing your financial situation over your friends, and you can expect pushback for sure! That doesn’t mean it’s not worth it, but it does clarify your…

As a recent engineering graduate I can say “kids these days” still have to work like crazy to get through an engineering degree. My major started 1500 freshmen and graduated 300 engineers (and I’m sure 1000 businessmen). I agree that working to 100% of your capacity, and getting a 35/100 on a test is the kind of…

This gets right to the point. Criticism only hurts when it exposes something you are already not confident in. It’s easy to discard when someone says “You are a blue squirrel” because you’re pretty confident that you are neither blue, nor a squirrel. However, when someone says “You were lazy and this work is crappy”…

What about the Peace Lily! I feel so happy when I’m watering my peace lily, Ernesto J. Plant.

It’s such a sticky problem because there are so many variables with our body, that it’s hard to separate the weight loss signal from the noise. Humans don’t really like uncertainty, and will jump on simple, reductionist answers to problems with a lot of unknowns. These fad diets all play on that and give simple…

If you are punishing just because the behavior makes you mad, but it’s not changing the behavior, guess what, you are going to be mad and your child punished over and over again. If it’s not working, then maybe extra attention should be paid to the things mentioned in the article - what situation happens before the…

Argh!!! I was planning to use this loophole today to eat fast food (which I’ve “given up”). Now I’m just going to have to munch on an apple like an animal. Thanks, Lifehacker.

The only saving grace for landlords when things go wrong like this, is that they are a tax write-off. The cost to repair rental properties can lower your taxes that year by a very significant amount.

Not quite. They can pull off the shredded (encrypted) device data at any time. It’s useless to them, just like the shredded document is.

The best analogy I’ve heard for this is as follows:

For me it seems it’s mostly because we let them get away with it. Imagine if you screamed and yelled at your new friend. Boom, bye bye new friend. If you yell at your partner? Oh sorry I’ll do better next time, lets go back to staring at our phones on the couch together. If you had someone who was great and fun and…

The seductive beauty of procrastination is that it works 90% of the time. Almost always, you CAN do it later, with minimal consequences. However! 1 out of 10 times you are totally screwed by having wasted the opportunity to work on it ahead of time, and there is no going back.

This is key. Confidence doesn’t come from success, Arrogance does. How many teams go on to repeat championships? I’m sure they all feel like the second time should be a breeze, but you never work as hard after the success. Confidence comes not from success, but from overcoming failure. Knowing that you could fail, but…

Worse things have happened to better people.

Just a note, you need Xcode 7.1 or higher if you want to put this on a device with iOS 9.1

This is great advice, I got a financial advisor as I knew nothing about investing, and he walked me through the setup of all the basic accounts, and put together a retirement and investment plan. In working with him over a few years, I learned a ton about investing, and even about how continuing to work with him was…
