Evidence of what? You mean what you just wrote?

That's you're exactly like the boomers you are attacking.

You answered my question: it's a tale seeking evidence.

This piece isn't saying there is no increase in depression and suicide. In fact, the whole premise of the article is that by blaming screen time we might be missing the actual cause of the issue (increase in depression and anxiety) and thus doing our children a disservice.

I would suggest that before trying to decide who to believe, you actually listen to their argument and evidence first. Instead of just thinking that your own perception of the world is perfectly objective and not anecdotal.

I can't make sense of bringing this in for this piece.

The headline of this piece is not really a question. Sure, there is a question in it. But it answers the question in the headline. . . .and that answer isn't "no." It's "it's not clear what the cause is."

So. . .where's your evidence? Or are you, just like Haidt, currently seeking evidence for your tale?

I believed it then and I believe it now especially with the landfill full of articles pointing to it being the case.

It's like you want to admit you didn't read the article. Fuck, even the headline says the evidence isn't clear.

I'm 100% on board with the us moving to metric, and in almost all cases I think it's far easier to use.

But fahrenheit is more intuitive: 100 too hot to work outside, 0 too cold to work outside. It's just garbage for scientific use. I couldn't care less if we switched to Celsius, but it's problem is certainly not intuitiveness.

I would say intuitiveness is more for all of the other measurements. Like 5280 feet in a mile? WTF is that BS.

Thanks for this. I see so many people here talking like it's obvious, but I've never been confused by a turn signal. I'm curious to read this.

Can you explain because I'm 46 years old and have driven plenty and can't recall a single time I've ever been confused by a turn signal.

Everyone is shitting on this but Im 46 years old and can't remember a single time I've ever been confused by a turn signal.

I can see why the regulation makes sense, because if one is out it might look like someone tapping their breaks is turning. But in both cases it's a warning someone is slowing down and I can't come up with a situation where they would have right of way that this would make sense.

So it seems like something that matters so little.

The irony of parroting this mindless and empty talking point is probably lost on you.
