Don't airlines usually charge a bit extra to pick your own seat? I'd imagine/hope that there are enough people selecting the cheaper "whatever" option that they're going to bump one of those.

Based on the synopsis at the top of the article, I'd say absolutely not a good idea.
As a combination back- and side-sleeper, I've been considering trying to strap foam blocks to the side of my head so I can always get the right amount of support regardless of position.
I'd love to. I used to be a very good software engineer, and I think deep down I might still be, but this place has taken all the joy I had in work. I'm not sure how I can get another job at this point where I can barely stomach the one I have.
My old job legitimately did 5 minute standups. A person saying they were struggling with something would often get interrupted by someone else volunteering to help them after standup. It was incredible. I miss it so much.
Me. I hate it so much.
Congratulations! That's a great time.
I really want to train for a long distance again, and heart rate training seems like the way to go, but I'm not sure I have the discipline.
Travel by land/sea is WAY more expensive and WAAAAAY more time-consuming than flying. If you can't deal with a relatively short flight where there's a chance that a child might make some noise, I'd recommend YOU take the land or sea route. Much more comfortable, please enjoy.
What the hell? You don't know me or my kids, why are you coming at me about my parenting? You're talking out of your ass about raising kids. They don't go straight from babies to adults, there is a lot of in-between, trial-and-error. Sometimes they cry, in public even (gasp), and we handle it. Sometimes they misbehave and we handle it. They're not going to learn anything by being locked away from society. And if being out in public with other people who might have children with them is so hard for you, maybe you should order in and watch Netflix.
You're assuming a lot about a person's situation who would be traveling internationally with a baby. They may not have a choice. In general, babies and their parents have as much right to exist in public as you do. Of course the courteous thing to do when your child is being disruptive is to try and calm them or remove them from the situation, but that's not always possible. I've gone into a restaurant with a very happy baby that only turns sour after the food is ordered. All you can do sometimes is just try to mitigate it until you can get your food in to-go boxes and get out. Also worth noting that the main issue with flying for babies is the pressure change and not being able to deal with it. People will often yawn or chew gum to relieve it, and for babies you can give them a bottle or something chewy (depending on age) and it does the same thing.
But my anus can tell the difference.
