ElI5: why did the Internet not make us more productive according to economists?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
Apparently economists have had a hard time proving the internet + computers made us more productive over the last 20 years. Why is this? Seems illogical to me. By extension... may help us set realistic expectations for the AI and productivity.

ELI5: What does “[Example]” mean in writing?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
I see it often in written interviews and im often confused as to why it is written that way. Example: “I [realized] there has been nothing else like it.”[SOLVED]: Thank you guys so much for your answers! I’ve seen it for so many years and have been embarrassed to ask.

English subtitles not available in my location?
At /r/netflix
Not US. English subs are usually available for TV shows, but I've started watching an anime and they're not there, only local subs and a neighour country, and Japanese. I tried changing the language settings for no effect. The subs in the local language are really bad, and sometimes I'm somewhere I don't speak the language at all. Anything I can do to add English subs to the sub list.

ELI5: Why aren’t atomic weights proportional to atomic numbers? For elements with atomic numbers 2 (He) to 20 (Ca), the weights are almost twice their atomic numbers. However, as the atomic number increases, the difference grows larger, eventually exceeding 2.5 times the atomic number.
At /r/explainlikeimfive
Additionally, some elements, like Ar (18), have noticeably higher atomic weights compared to neighboring elements. For example, while nearby elements (Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca) have weights close to double their atomic numbers, Ar’s weight is almost 4 plus 2 times its atomic number. What causes these discrepancies?

ELI5: Why doesn't the NFL just put a tracker in the football so they know how far a play goes, when a first down occurs, and if it is a touchdown or out of bounds?

Eli5: Will the soda can cool down faster if I cover it with snow outside?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
If you want to cool down a liquid inside of a bottle (soda, beer, water) outside where it's 0c. Would burying it in snow cool the bottles faster, or should you just leave it outside? My intuition is that leaving it just outside without snow, would cool it quicker because snow "traps" the air around the bottle and would insulate the bottle, the same way as an iglo would. Is this right or wrong, and if so - at what outside temperature would sticking the bottles in snow speed up the cooling?

Consider pausing your subscription
At /r/netflix
I enjoy a lot of the original conflict Netflix offers but I don't need twelve months of subscription to watch it. So, a couple times a year I go to account settings and pause my subscription. If you're just looking for something to watch then use a free or cheap platform. If you like Netflix-specific content then subscribe but take a month off here and there.I know it's petty but it make me feel like I'm winning lol Also, I downgraded to standard on the last price hike and didn't notice a difference.How this helps someone.

Night agent season 2 worked against the entire premise of the show
At /r/netflix
The entire show is built around a premise that a night agent is the most elite intelligence officer that exists. Yet Rose, with no training is running around meddling in highly sensitive missions. I couldn't even finish the season. Its obvious the writers wanted Rose to have a presence during the season but this made the plot unbelievable. It's too bad because the lead actor. Old have easily carried the series without the other character helping him.

ELI5: What is a metal?
At /r/explainlikeimfive
SPOILERS for Jan. 26, 2025 NYT Strands puzzle!....Today's NYT Strands puzzle has me fucked up. It was "Pure Metals" and included metals like Aluminum and Cobalt. Fair enough. But then I was like what's the difference between a pure metal and other metals, and then... apparently every element on the periodic table is some kind of metal, metal alloy, etc? Like uranium is just a radioactive metal?I truly don't remember this from high school, and Wiki hole was getting overwhelming. The word "metal" has lost all meaning.So l guess my question is. If it's not a gas, is every element on the periodic table some kind of metal? What are non-metals?

hiiSo I used to live in Philippines for a year and half and setup my Netflix account there because I have a girlfriend and we share the account and I opened on June 2022I had to return home to the states in Nov 2023 and it didn't give my girlfriend a temporary access code until Nov or Oct 2024 and I gave it to her and I stopped using Netflix at that point and she is the one mainly using it nowmy question is I logged in yesterday and started watching a movie I can only find on Netflix, will my girlfriend still get a temporary code again or will I or will the systems not even notice?I checked and she had logged in after I had watched last and the temporary code would be sent to me if she tried to log in for a temporary duration but that never happened Thanks!

Netflix changing age rating when changing profile picture
At /r/netflix
I have age restrictions on my kid’s profile, 10+ and down. Recently my kid discovered that when they change their profile picture, suddenly they have access to everything, no restrictions. I received an email from Netflix saying age restrictions had been removed and subsequently started digging into why this was. After some digging I realized that when a profile with age restrictions on changes their profile picture, the age restriction disappears. It didn’t fail once. Has anyone else had this bug/problem? I have an LG TV with WebOS if it makes a difference. I tried changing the profile picture on my kid’s profile on my phone and nothing happened, so it seems to be an LG problem perhaps?
