That could also be explained by left handed people wanting to join in on the vegetable peeling fun.

There are three main parameters: stand/sit, front-to-back/back-to-front, front-access/reverse-access (i.e. between the legs or behind the back)
Back-to-front is a health risk for 50% of us, and just a bit gross for the rest. So rule that out.
Wiping hand between the legs is awkward and requires that the thumb (a notoriously larger-than-the-other-digits digit) is used as the primary wiping vane.
Sit + wiping hand behind the back + wipe front to back allows use of the index finger, but requires an awkward lean and lift of one cheek to gain access.
Stand + wiping hand behind the back + wipe front to back is, therefore, the only sensible option. Additionally it makes checking the bowlean return value indicated on the paper much easier.
I often thought: It seems like flushing first makes much of the cleaning product run right into the water rather than sticking to the bowl, but there must be a reason they say to do it.
Bought new Converse shoes which were specifically marketed as walking shoes. 5-6 weeks of ~20 minutes moderate walking per day and they both had holes in the soles.
Went back to the Converse store and got told "no refunds". We eventually got our money back, but not without an argument. It pays to understand consumer protection laws where you live.
Do you have any sources you could share which support this claim? A cursory search has turned up nothing approaching convincing evidence.
I find I want to be doing things. Those things must be immediately (or very quickly at least) and consistently rewarding, or I'll stop. That much is, as far as I've found in the last few decades, an unchangeable fact.
That pretty much rules out studying.
You can learn by doing things too, obviously, but the early stages of learning programming are either sensible small steps (hello world, what's a function, etc etc) or gigantic unrealistic moon-of-an-exoplanet-shot projects (I'm going to build the next World of Warcraft by myself by next weekend).
The sensible small steps are exciting and give the doing things successfully rush at first, but that goes away fast and you need more.
You do hello world (wow I made the computer do something!). Learn how to use some conditions (wow I made the computer decide something!). Learn about libraries (wow so I can just stitch a bunch of these together and build the next Big App!). Start working on your big idea, quickly realise you're not going to be getting the success hits fast enough. Do something else "for a bit" and never touch your project again.
I'm fairly sure the only reason I managed to learn to code was that my first job in tech support was both easy and boring, and automating parts of that job was more fun than actually doing the job. Productive things become much easier when they're procrastination from something less fun.
It's taken me ten years, but I'm finally at the point now where I've built up a big enough skillset that I can take on projects that I'm interested in, and make progress fast enough that I get my fix and can stick with them.
Auto loan rates are about 7% p/a.
On a 5 year loan of $589, you'd pay $700 including interest. Plus you might recoup some of that when you sell the car.
A monthly subscription for the same period would cost $1740.
You can get it to "admit" just about anything if you ask enough leading questions.

On the plus side for Australia, we never have to hear the classic form:

I did this with a random stranger on Imgur a few years back. It was remarkably effective.
- This guy is either mad, a genius, or both.
- I am not smart enough to figure out which it is.
- I need a swarm of monitors on my wall.
Are cars a reason that pedestrians and cyclists don't "interact with each other" today?
The thing that kills is for me is the lack of NFC. I haven't carried a wallet / cards with me since about 2018 and I'm not super eager to go back.
I will make an effort to use whatever term people prefer, but it's impossible to know which that is when the loudest voices don't agree.
Not that we have to also provide an alternative for people who can't use the color coding, but we can't use color coding at all.
The world is full of people with good intentions and bad ideas.
