It hadn't occurred to me, but my wife mentioned she'd read about optimal bedtimes for infants. I looked into it a bit and found that there are some "sleep consultants" that swear by certain bedtimes and even suggest it has something to do with melatonin levels, but I wasn't able to find any studies on this.

Anyone have any studies they can point me to?

Our infant recently turned 6-months and we expected our pediatrician would give us the option to get the COVID vaccine along with other 6-month immunizations. Instead, he went on this lengthy sidebar about the lack of research, but he said he'd look into it and get back to us. A week later we hadn't heard back so we called and asked again. We got a call back and basically he cited the ACPed as not recommending the vaccine so he wasn't going to offer it despite the CDC and AAP recommendations. Being there type of person that reads stuff here, I figured alright let me see the research opposing recommendation. Now, I'm looking at ACPed's website and they basically seem like a political organiza

Apparently Red 3 is a known carcinogen and banned from use in cosmetics.

However, it's still approved for use in food. So apparently it's in lots of candy.

This article popped in my feed on the subject: https://www.cspinet.org/press-release/fda-says-it-causes-cancer-yet-its-hundreds-candies

I also checked the FDA and confirmed the claim that it's approved for food but not makeup. https://www.fda.gov/industry/color-additive-inventories/color-additive-status-list

I have not yet checked the National Toxicology Program or looked into the studies. But I thought I might ask here if anyone has looked into it and might save me (and others) some time.

Hopefully a simply question for you all:

Had a set of diagnostic scans done. In Network, requested by doctor. EOB says everything was covered and $0 due. Receiving bill (admittedly not much), from provider. Confirmed it's for the same event.

What's my next step? Have another visit this week which can't register for without paying, so just trying to get this resolved ASAP.

We got an S7 over the holidays and ever since it's been kind of annoying. It mostly does fine, but it constantly rams into walls and furniture. Our chairs/stools/lights/etc would get pushed around a lot. The bot rams stuff it can't move for an excessive amount of time before giving up and going around. None of this is the end of the world, but it is rather annoying and sometimes causes issues.

Last week I was at a buddy's house and he had an S5 (I think) running around. I noticed that the bumper was far looser. The robot would barely touch things and immediately change directions. That's when it clicked that our robot has a lot more padding in the bumper. So since I've been home I've fol

So, I put a fan behind my stove to circulate the air more and the surface temperature of my stove dropped a lot. Even during pretty solid fires it never got as hot as it usually does. I still adjusted the intake by eye, but kept an eye on the surface temps.

So basically, if I have the fan on the stove can I still overfire it? I always assumed the main concern of overfiring is the metal overheating/for a prolonged period, so with the fan it basically will cool off faster and never really get that hot. So can stoves with fans (built-in or otherwise) overfire?

My father in law gave me a couple of his old DeWalt drills a couple years and I've used those pretty close to the end of their life. I am going to take on a few bigger projects this summer and I was planning on buying some new drills. However, my knowledge of drills was regular drill and then impact drill. Now, I'm looking at drills and there are drills, hammer drills, and impact drills. The super cheap brands seem to have regular drills, but as the quality starts to go up, it looks like everything is hammer drill and regular drills don't exist for better brands. Then there are impact drills separately.

I looked into the difference between hammer and impact drills and I understand the d

Back in original DotA, I remember having to worry about stacking orbs (mana break from wouldn't stack with corruption from desolator). Can you go to town stacking orbs now?

Sidenote: Sange doesn't maim anymore?!

In Unranked All Pick, why doesn't ban work sometimes? The first 5 seconds are to pick a hero to ban, but sometimes it simply won't let me ban. I always try to ban sniper because I think he's OP as shit, but it really doesn't let me like a third of the time.

Also, is there a resource that is just like a dictionary of all the abbreviations and random words people use when talking about DotA? I could make a list of the terms I don't get, but I figure someone has to have done this already.
