    What's a 'common sense' thing that you genuinely don't understand, and have been too embarrassed to ask about until now?

    Jump

  • Until I was like 23 I didn't know how to cut and peel an avocado. I would peel the skin off in chunks with my fingers like it was a giant boiled egg. It was a very laborious and frustrating process.

  • I don't understand how drivers know if they have enough time to go through a yellow light. I don't drive anymore but for the short time I did I dreaded yellow lights.

  • Do everyone else have a stubborn hair that they have been pulling out since forever every few weeks?

    Jump

  • Once or twice a year, I'll get an eyelash that's grey and weirdly long. Plucking it is so satisfying though.

  • What to you, is always a losing battle?

  • Trying to pick up my cat. She won't let me. I just want to hold her. 🥺

  • What would be interesting to bring to a home made pizza party?

    Jump

  • A calzone.

  • Why are some shows so dark?

    Jump

  • I've noticed this problem with a lot of media made in the past decade. I think Netflix's 'Ozark' is one of the worst examples. In almost every indoor scene the lights are off or very dim.

    However, I got an oled screen this year, and it's helped a lot with dim scenes. I'm guessing hollywood is calibrating for expensive high contrast screens like oled and mini-led?

  • Something that happened to you but no one believes you?

    Jump

  • When I was 10, I went on a trip to Venezuela. At this restaurant in Caracas, I went into the bathroom. It was a single person bathroom. For some reason the door had slide locks on both sides. While I was in there, some kid locked the door from the outside (I could see through a narrow gap). It was a real door, not a stall door. I couldn't unlock it. I started panicking a little and kicking the door. Eventually a waiter let me out.

    I'm still confused about why that door could be locked on the outside.

  • "But How Do It Know? - The Basic Principles of Computers for Everyone" by J Clark Scott. It's a short self published book aimed at laypersons written in a very simple, sort of conversational style. Through the whole book he guides you to building a functioning computer that does some bitwise operations. I built most of the computer in a simulator program called Logisim (https://cburch.com/logisim/).

    I'd recommend it if you're looking for an easy introduction to the topic. It was a fun read for me. Get the print version; some of the diagrams in the Kindle version are badly compressed.
