Reply to comment by malcontented in LPT: If you don't want kids ringing your doorbell on Halloween and don't wanna turn all of the lights out, put an empty bowl out with a sign that says "Take one". That way they will think somebody stole all of the candy. by MyScrotesASaggin

Im at work from 6am to 9pm today, I just put out a bowl filled and hope for the best. My security camera will show me if someone steals the whole bowl.

I literally go to elderly people's homes to facilitate adls and medication dispensing.

You are vastly over-estimating the average elderly ability to learn something new. Most of the ones I see don't remember what they did the previous day and can't see anything under 20-30 point font.

Reply to Eli5: Why does ceramic break tempered glass so easily. by jannesb

Tempered glass is under very high internal stress from the process of cooling it rapidly.

Ceramics are harder than glass so the impact of the two mostly transfers the force to the glass which causes the stress of the internal glass to exceed its ability to hold its structure. AFAIK.
