Vietnam is using life-sized 'Decoy Cops' on Highway N2 to trick speeding drivers into slowing down. by Por_TheAdventurer in mildlyinteresting

ELI5: Why do habits become automatic over time even without conscious effort? by dan_nicholson247 in explainlikeimfive

[–]skill_tree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to fight the urge to go to bed without brushing my teeth every single night. And I don't always win that fight.
