Also, many cultures used broad leaves as plates or bowls; many in India at least still do. The leaves are often fed todomestic animals, especially cows, once the food is eaten, which is efficient and kind. Where water is scarce or barely safe to use without boiling or the like, and where one has to carry water from a well or river, maybe for many miles/km, not having to wash dishes saves a lot of effort and water itself.

Sigh.... the "QWERTY slows down typists" myth raises its head again. You did get it partly right, though. The goal of QWERTY was to keep common pairs and sets of letters far enough apart to keep the machine from jamming, resulting in making typists *faster*, not slower. It becomes obvious if you type words like 'of', 'the', 'and'. Also, notice that lesser-used letters like Z and Q are "left pinky" letters - the least coordinated finger of a right-handed typist. A lot went in to designing QWERTY, but slowing down typists was never an objective. Ive been battling this myth forever, but it wont die!!!! 😢

Yep, knew that, because every computer class I took in school made me do extra research on the QWERTY keyboard in an effort to make me respect it. I would never type properly, but pick with my fingers, and I still was faster than most other students and well above average. I'd had physically traumatic brain damage beforehand that made my hand use weird, and autism made it worse. Suck it, teachers, you have to pass me as long as I can keep up.

​@@Nylak-OtterMy son is autistic and has never had a typing lesson. He types with his index and middle fingers ~70wpm - my best is 60ish and I had "proper" lessons in high school (1980s). I could never fathom trying to "correct" his style as he gets the job done! 😊 Back when I was learning to type it was physically a very different world. Accuracy was paramount as 1. corrections with that white goop was SO obvious and 2. if you found a type-o after pulling out the paper you were screwed - there was no way you'd ever get it lined up perfectly to fix the error. Also, ink ribbons weren't cheap and neither was paper, so you had to get it right the first time. All this caused justifiable OCD with teachers and professional typists 'back in the day'. As humans are messy creatures, some take that perfectionism into places where it's no longer needed. I'm glad you stood your ground! Being critical of someone's typing style nowadays is uncalled for. Wth the keyboard being such an integral part of daily life, it's important to know there is no madness behind the method and every letter is in its proper place.

Another keyboard, fun fact. Notice that the number pad on a keyboard or calculator is upside down from that of a phone. That is because early phone users when introduced to digital keyboards in test groups made more errors dialing with a standard keyboard than the flipped keyboard, that you see now. This was in an effort to minimize miss dialing of phone numbers when the digital keyboard was released.

No, the qwerty keyboard was NOT created to slow down typing, the layout was to place commonly used characters so they were not next to each other so there was the least possible chance of mechanical jam when two were used in rapid succession.

Speed was not the reason that keyboards jammed, because what the modern typing keyboard is actually designed not to slow typists down, but to stop keyboard keys jamming, by placing the most used letters in more sensible places to avoid jamming; that depends on the langauge as well. It definitely doesn't slow typists down. My late mother typed at an average of 60 wpm and my average is 35 wpm, in spite of the fact that I am typing with one hand, using either my right index finger or a stylus. The slows down typists is a myth, caused by a lack of understanding about langauge use versus the original mechanical typewriter keyboard. It just actually a case of ergonomic design for ease of use.

It just made me wonder, What's the difference really between memorizing one keyboard+ muscle memory, over another ? The common repeated letter patterns used most frequently in the English language should have some influence, but wouldn't that not really matter when you can do it at a fast speed, and a comfort level where you don't have to think about the "act" of typing? 🤔 Food for thought.

@@FurtiveSkeptical As a typist, who before I got arthritis in both hands, typed with them, I say it was a little of both. I type using only a bit of my peripheral vision, sometimes not looking at all, because I can if I want cheat, using the auto speller, but I always double check, what I have typed. The gap between the letters on a virtual keyboard is much smaller than a physical one. So it's part muscle memory and part keyboard memory. I think some langauges are probably, more difficult to type in than others.

I don't remember if I passed or failed my typing course, but I do remember The fastest I could type was between 10 and 15 words a minute. First my spelling was very bad and remembering where the keys were was worse. I cam say, in the 45 years or so, since I took the typing class, my spelling has improved somewhat, but remembering where the keys are (even just on finger on my phone), is still difficult to remember sometimes. The main reason for the slight improvement is: the auto fill.

Just a note on using chopsticks from someone who used them all my life. The technique you showed is the one we show to "learning adults". I learned as a kid, by using the same 4 fingers (thumb, pointing, middle and ring), but I hold them together between the thumb, the pointing finger on top and the other 2 fingers below, open them by inserting the middle finger between the sticks, and close by removing the middle finger. Takes a lot more practice but allows to exert much more precision and force closing, also looks more elegant because the "resting" position have the sticks parallel and together. Fun fact, there is a third piece of wood called the chopsticks rest that we leave on the table to rest the sticks when not in use, so that the sauce sticking to the tip of the sticks does not soil the table cloth. Rich people have assorted chopsticks and chopstick rests, usually black lacquered with mother-of-pearl inserts making super fine art, like the 4 animals (dragon, lion, turtle, phoenix) or the 4 plants (apricot blossom, orchid, chrysanthemum, bamboo)

The maker of your Kingsford grill has an interesting history. Edward Kingsford, a relative of Henry Ford, helped Ford buy some timberland in order to more cheaply produce wood for Ford's cars (back then, a lot of wood was used in auto production). Henry Ford wondered if the leftover wood scraps could be used for anything (you know, to make more money). After figuring out how to press charred wood into little blocks, charcoal was born. It was initially sold under the Ford brand name before changing the name to Kingsford in Edward's honor.

15 -: One major reason for the Head Rest ( As it’s more correctly called) in Ancient Egypt was to elevate the head so one could see whether there were Scorpions and other creatures creeping and crawling around one’s bed. So one didn’t just blindly stumble out of bed and get stung or bitten. It wasn’t really always for health or comfort reasons ( In fact some people say we should be sleeping without pillows because that’s better for our necks and spines and shoulders in certain positions. In spite of that I’ll still be using my pillow because I’m used to sleeping with one)…..⚛️☮️🌏

Here are a few item origins I can remember right off the bat: 1: Chainsaws were originally made to help mothers in child birth. These were hand cranked instead of motorized. 2: Corn Flakes were invented to stop masterbation along with Graham crackers. Kellogg and Graham both believed that eating bland foods were the best way of getting ppl to stop touching themselves. 3: Listerine was originally made to clean your floors with and not your mouth. 4: Play-Dough was supposed to be used as a way to clean the soot off of everything, but they made the products when we started using electricity to light our homes thus eliminating the soot problem. The creators were going to give up when they saw their own children playing with the putty so they got rid of the cleaning chemicals that were in them and began marketing the resulting product to children as the fun squishy toys we all know and love today.

2:01 The reason Barbie's waist is so small is so that she will look normal when dressed. Waistbands on the doll's clothes were bulkier than on a human's clothes, because the fabric was not to scale. So when it was folded and sewed, the wasteband was much thicker in proportion to the waist. They intentionally made her waist smaller to accomidate the out of scale waistbands without the doll looking fat, or WORSE.....pregnant.

I heard on a newscast that ceiling fans will allow your air conditioner to operate more efficiently, lowering the temperature by two to three degrees.
@aliquotidian
@aliquotidian 9 ай бұрын
Probably by creating eddies and thus mixing the cooler air (which would naturally sink) with the warmer air in the room. Living in Australia, can confirm that the layer of air nearest the ceiling in a poorly insulated room is perceptibly warmer than air near the floor. I imagine it is possible to achieve thermal layering as found in still water. but haven't personally experimented with air-conditioning (something of a traditionalist aversion to it, like some people seem to harbour for airbags in their cars - " no air con, we die as Aussies" so to speak).

There is a vere good reason that a ceiling fan turns or rotates in 2 direction. Since warm air rises, in the cold season you want to have this warm air pushed down by the action of the fan; this will keep the air warmer, starting under the fan and moving outwards, to warm the rest of the room. During the warm part of the year, you have the fan pulling up the warm air under the fan pushing it along the ceiling, down the walls, which will push any cooler air towards the general centre of the toom, hopefully cooling off the room itself.

@@leonlaf9929 I think you have that reversed: In summer and hotter months, your ceiling fan blades should rotate counterclockwise. When fan blades turn counterclockwise, they push cooler air down in a column. This creates a “wind chill” effect, which is what you want. In the colder months, your furnace warms the air in your room. Since warm air is lighter than cold air, it will rise up to the ceiling, and stay trapped there. However, by changing your ceiling fan direction to rotate clockwise, its blades can push that warm air to travel across the ceiling to the perimeter walls & down towards the floor. It also brings the cool air from the floor to the ceiling. This helps evenly distribute heat throughout the room and prevents a drafty “wind chill”.

Actually, duct tape was originally used to tape insulation around the ducts.
@aliquotidian
@aliquotidian 9 ай бұрын
Alternatively, it was never meant to be anywhere near ducts - it was originally made using a strong woven cotton known as 'duck'. Once the fabric ceased to be in common use, and people forgot its existence, the only type of 'duck' most know is the feathered variety. Would you use tape on a waterfowl for any reason? Nonsense! But use tape to patch a hole in a duct, makes more sense.

When I was in the army, we called duck tape, gun tape. When we were issued our personal weapons, the first thing we would do was usr the gun tape to secure 2 magazines together to allow for a much quicker reload.

I learned to use chopsticks when I was 10 and a friend of my dad came home from Japan and brought us some. My husband and I are both really good with them. My younger son and his family are as well. And they're into all things Japan because of anime, to the point that we put them on a plane this morning for a 13-hour flight to Japan for a week. The grandkids are 23 and 21 and both said they would be eating anything and everything they could, even the stuff we would be grossed out about. My husband (their step-dad/grandfather) told them not to anything still wiggling and the 23 year old grandson said "Oh yeah, I will be trying it." I can't wait to hear how this trip goes. Chopsticks are on my "oh yeah, please" list for them to bring us.

We learned about the home keys in typing class and why the keyboard was placed in that order, back in typing class. In Junoir High School. In 1972-1973. When it was a girls-only class. (The boys were all in auto shop class, because why should a girl ever need to know how to change a tire or check your own oil?) But we tried our hardest to mess with the teacher and smash all the key levers together. 😂
