    Record measles outbreak in Oregon blamed on vaccine exemptions
  • What most people don't realize is that childhood vaccinations don't actually last forever. It's been probably 30 years since I completed most of my vaccinations as a toddler, but when I got my most recent job (at a healthcare provider), they tested me and I needed boosters for some childhood vaccines due to losing immunity.

    Totally clueless with investing, $100k sitting in the bank earning 0.05%. How do I get started? Please advise.
  • If you have a HYS, there is no reason to have 100k in an account earning .05%.

    Like others have said, everything else depends on your risk tolerance. If you’re young, you should have more in higher risk stuff (stocks, etc.). Even if you have a big loss, you can earn it back.

    Whatever you don’t need liquid and whatever isn’t in high-risk investments can go into stuff like bonds and CDs

    Why are people with kids always so triggered by child free people?
  • Well TIL what DINK means. As another DINK household (unless you count the dogs), I have literally never been judged or had a confrontation about this.

    Sure, almost all of my friends have kids now, so the nature of our relationships have changed. But I don’t think it’s necessarily in a bad way.

    When I bite my nails while wearing sound cancelling earbuds, I can hear a moment of static as my skull absorbs the sound or whatever. What's going on here?
  • Think of noise as a sine wave on a Cartesian plane (the X-y graph you used in math class). The noise goes up and down so that y=1 at the max and y=-1 at the minimum.

    What happens if we add 1 when y=-1? Well, now it’s 0. And what happens if we add -1 when y=1? It’s 0 again. That’s basically what noise cancelling does. It adds the “opposite” to make the sound equal 0. That’s super layman’s terms, but I hope it makes sense. It’s basically trying to make the opposite of whatever it hears.

    But when something is physically touching your body, your ears can’t absorb that “opposite” sound because the original sound is kind of already absorbed in your body, if that makes sense?
