ELI5 how the intestines can push out gas against gravity.
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I get that the intestines are like a long tube which digests food, absorbing nutrients and squeezing out waste as poop and farts. I also understand that they are a big loop, which goes up and around in a circle, before going out.I don't understand how it can push gas out against gravity. The reason: when I think of the central heating loop in my house, all air rises to the highest (or locally highest) part of the system, even though there is a pump, which keeps the water moving. Why doesn't all gas rise to the top of our intestines and stay there? When poo is being pushed out, do our intestines also push the gas along with it? Is there a pressure difference which forces it out?I know that my analogy must be wrong, but I'm wondering what I'm missing.

The Recruit vs Night Agent
At /r/netflix
For once, Netflix is cooking and gave us two shows with tremendous potential to grow. But given that these shows have always released their seasons close to each other, it hard not to compare them. Especially that they are both spy/political shows. Which do you prefer? The Recruit or Night Agent. I am leaning more toward The Recruit but I am not done with Night Agent season 2 yet so jury still out.

ELI5: how come we find babies so cute?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I’m not just referring to human babies, we also find kittens, puppies, and other animal infants cute as well. Is there some sort of scientific reasoning as to why we find them cute? What makes a baby much more special than say, a person we find attractive?

At /r/explainlikeimfive
I guess I don’t understand why it matters if the value of your house goes down in the short term if you have no immediate plans to sell? Won’t the value go back up eventually like a stock….so the loss isn’t realized until you sell the asset? I’m sure that sounds very dumb, so please ELI5.

ELI5: Why do orthodontists go through so much more training than dentists?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
ELI5: Why do orthodontists have to go through so much more schooling than dentists?I understand that orthodontists have different responsibilities from dentists. Orthodontists focus more on aligning teeth while dentists focus more on preventative and restorative care. However a lot of dentists offer orthodontic services too, maybe not braces but they will offer Invisalign and clear aligners instead.After dental school orthodontists go through 1-3 years of residency focused on just straightening teeth. If dentists can offer many of the same services as orthodontists why do orthodontists have to seek so much more training than dentists. I am not going to say that orthodontic treatment seems simple but it seems relatively straightforward from a patient’s point of view, they put brackets and wires on your teeth and you come into the office every now and then for the doctor to check and change out your wires. Majority of the time the orthodontist isn’t even the one placing the brackets and wires on your teeth it is the assistant.I am genuinely curious as to why orthodontists must go through so much more training than general dentists.

The Netflix TV User Interface Homepage
At /r/netflix
I watch Netflix through my Sony Bravia TV. Does anyone notice that the Netflix user homepage seems to have slightly changed.Usually, they put the pic of new and popular movies/show up large in front. But now they put our "List" and "Still Watching" in front instead. Which is convenient i guess, but i thought the old format was more aesthetically pleasing.Are the rest of you seeing the same thing?

Change primary profile for Premium plan
At /r/netflix
I'm using the primary profile for a Premium plan account that I share with others. I would like to choose another profile to be the primary one, so my profile could be removed. Is this possible to do?
A last resort would be to ask another person to rename and use my profile instead, and remove theirs. But that means their watch history would be lost. Thanks!
