    Ah yes the famous learning curve of having to READ the INSTRUCTION BOOKLET of the things you buy

    Land sakes ahead, HOW WILL WE MANAGE TO COPE WITH IT ALL

    The worst this is that it’s not even a READING thing.

    Its a CARING thing.

    God-damn, it’s your fucking baby. You wanted it? you should have turned since conception into a linear algebra organic machine, devoted solely to calculating solutions for MIGHT DIE scenarios for your baby, applying n dimensional matrices to explore possibility space

    Within the first few years, you should have been able to calculate most obvious scenarios (choking hazards, sand pits, piranhas, etc)

    That frees up time to calculate the utmost edge cases ( wormhole traveling, memetic incursions, local brane collapse, and so on)

    If you are smart about it, you can find an optimal stock selection strategy algorithm within P-Space

    You should print the output in binary tho

    My brother had a kid and I always feel like some out of touch old man when we talk about it. Once he told me todlers can only have distilled water and I had to stop myself from going “Back in my day, my parents gave me tap water and I turned out fine!”

      Babies, babies can’t have tap water.

      ~6 months you start with cooled boiled water.

      ~12 months you can move onto tap water.

          Nope, distilled water has nothing, no minerals or anything else, including ions. Deionized water is also not the best for consumption.

          That’s reverse osmosis water. It’s not dangerous but itself but if you only drink it you may be hydrated but missing essential minerals that you usually get dissolved in water.

              There’s a difference between potable and healthy over a long term.

              Also, what an excellent example of “community” knowledge basically being a superstition telephone game this thread is.

      todlers can only have distilled water

      I’m pretty sure that’s unhealthy (lack of minerals)

        If you only have them distilled water and not the formula you mix into it, then it’s dangerous, but the minerals aren’t the problem there.
