@operationdanish All 4 of our kids we used cry it out
They're all loving, caring kids towards us and others

What if the “Cry It Out” sleep training (aka extinction-based sleep training) has contributed to mental health issues in young people?
In some ways, it’s the most insane thing to do to a child (and is based on incredibly poor science). For centuries, families co-slept without issues, but in modern times, it has become increasingly taboo… why?
How can repeated emotional non-response to a baby be healthy? What does it do to their stress calibration, attachment expectations, and self-regulation? How does it play out in their long term relationships and social connections?
I’ve read the studies and they are poorly designed and weakly supported. Yet, we have an entire generation of parents that blindly follow this insane protocol without reviewing the data themselves.
To be fair, the data supporting co-sleeping is weak as well, but it has centuries of precedent so I feel much more comfortable supporting that than a new approach that was largely instituted since the 1920s.
For some context, in the 20th century, behaviorist John Watson (1928), interested in making psychology a hard science, took up the crusade against affection as president of the American Psychological Association. He applied the paradigm of behaviorism to childrearing, warning about the dangers of “too much mother love”. The 20th century was the time when “science" was assumed to know better than mothers, grandmothers, and families about how to raise a child. Too much kindness to a baby would result in a whiney, dependent, failed human being.
A government pamphlet from the time recommended that "mothering meant holding the baby quietly, in tranquility-inducing positions" and that "the mother should stop immediately if her arms feel tired" because "the baby is never to inconvenience the adult." A baby older than six months "should be taught to sit silently in the crib; otherwise, he might need to be constantly watched and entertained by the mother, a serious waste of time."
The truth is the opposite. We now know that ignoring a child raising cortisol levels and hurts trust and attachment. Yet, every young parent I know today has been brainwashed to let their child cry in silence. It’s truly wild.

@NaylorInvesting @WealthCoachMak Robinhood or trading view. Just select the option you want and open the chart.

@WealthCoachMak Is there a way to see whether a particular options contract is higher or lower than it has been historically. Lots of people saying options were higher a few months ago. How can I check these sort of trends?

@BobbyPolzer And yet both socialism and capitalism have central banks conjuring money and the same people controlling its direction 🤷♂️

Half the time captive portals will not open for me on iOS and I have to open Safari to browse to 1.1.1.1 and then it'll redirect me to the hotel WiFi
Anyone else have this?

@levelsio @jsneedles One takeaway from this is how are captive portals still so poorly handled in 2025

@biocheMichael @Rainmaker1973 What if they're storage containers reserved for special circumstances? Any evidence for or against this hypothesis?

I did some work on vaults at my last job. We were doing some cool stuff with RNA binding proteins and nucleic acid hybridization to deliver stuff with the vault.
They spend part of the time open - like a clamshell of sorts.
The inside is huge.
They are made in just about every cell we’ve looked
We don’t know why they exist afaik

I’ve observed a few hi stakes negotiations over the years and one tactic I’ve seen work well over and over is when you find the leverage to bring your opponent to the edge of the cliff, hold them over the cliff so they see the abyss and threaten to push them off.
Turns out when you then don’t push them, but back off, they often develop Stockholm syndrome and give you more than you would have otherwise because they are thankful for the reprieve.
I don’t know that this is the plan here but the conditions for that are the same.
75 countries are on a 90 day shot clock to get a grand bargain done. Based on what I’ve heard from some of them, they are thankful for a chance to egress off the tariff highway and find a new normal - even if that’s much worse for them than what it was previously.
