Because it is tough for high school students to fall asleep early enough.

"In the teenage years, the hormonal response to the 24-hour daily light/dark exposure that influences circadian rhythm is altered, making adolescents physiologically yearn to stay awake later at night and to remain asleep later in the day."

Citation? Everywhere I look says that it is a simple sugar.


You can watch TV on a treadmill, something that is much harder (and more dangerous) while running outside.

'who' benefit, not 'whom'


Thanks for the correction.

Isn't it likely the person who lost the $20 bill already paid tax on it?


There's no rule that says only one person pays income tax. For example:

1) You make $20 from employment, and pay $5 income tax. 2) I sell you a sandwich for $15.

I still owe income tax for the money I made selling you a sandwich, even though you already paid tax.


as well as employer, who paid tax on that $20 to the person who lost it

as well as person who found it, who paid tax on that $20, who paid employer for service, who paid person who lost it

this could be non stop recursion :)


Many people can (prep and) eat in much less time than 40-50 minutes.


I'm a slow eater. It would take me 40 minutes just to finish the meal, without counting prep and cook.

I frequently wish I didn't have to eat at all - it would more than double my productivity and free time.


That wish was the itch that Soylent was built to scratch. I've gone back and forth on it, but in the end I found that mixing the powder up wasn't that much easier than just making a sandwich. The bottled version is a really quick way to get some sustenance but it generates a lot of waste...


>>after taxes you’re still making a million or so a year depending where you live, so still safely a millionaire and thus rich (two commas club).

A millionaire just has a net worth greater than or equal to a million dollars. They don't need to have an after-tax income greater than or equal to a million dollars.


There’s different kinds of millionaires. I guess I was referring to a cash flow millionaire.
