Can we talk about website ads messing up my morning coffee time?

I enjoy sipping coffee and reading news on my tablet each morning. The site I visit now loads so many pop-up ads that I can't see the articles. It really bugs me because I just want to relax, not fight with my screen. I might try a news app instead to avoid the hassle.

TIL my try to fix my sleep backfired

I drank coffee to keep going, but it left me too awake and shaky... now I avoid caffeine after midnight.

Debate: Are geotextiles worth the extra cost on sloped sites?

I think yes after a washout, but others claim compaction is enough.

My son wants to learn the trade, but keeps mixing up PVC and copper fittings

He's 14 and super eager to help me on jobs. But every time I show him how to glue PVC, he grabs the copper solder instead. I've tried labeling everything, but it's still a mess. Any tips for teaching kids the basics without confusing them?
