https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXdtafGdIVM Bit starting at :43 (Germany) will easily go down as one of the greatest stand-up bits ever written and performed. And he was the perfect guy to do it.
I'm assuming they're referencing the type of content they see from opposite sides of the political spectrum. I'm also not assuming any value attribution. In the context of the comment, it seems that they simply do not…
Preparation definitely helps me as a student. > Mistakes erode the kids' trust in you. In addition to this, I often find myself trying to digest concepts broadly because my mind is lackluster with the mechanical side of…
This instinct is so right, but the multitude of comments show how hard of a problem this is. I'd be so elated to work on something that solves this but I think the answer may lie in self-regulation. We software people…
I don't quite get how "working class" got into the mix. I see that there must have been some cohesion to his original rant since it was linked to income disparity, but what does that have to do with homeless beggars…
Balderdash is definitely great. I'm thinking that this is to Balderdash as Cards Against Humanity is to Apples To Apples. (At least from my understanding. I haven't played Cards Against Humanity.)
This irks me because of the absolutism in the writing voice. But I'm sure you'd say there is no absolutism present (not even an implication). Let's leave the linguistic criticisms on this one to Frege and Russell…
I don't see this as inflammatory or offensive. However, I do have a separate problem. It reads like a rebuttal, but has no parent comment. It makes me feel like you're speaking to a comment no one made. Derail complete.
This point can't be sung enough. It always seems so absurdly obvious to me, but everyone is sold by their favorite media outlet, their upbringing, or whatever motivates the two-party voting base. Sometimes I think…
As one person comments below the article, this totally is reminiscent of the Foundation trilogy.
My guess is that most people aren't phased by common usage, regardless of technical accuracy.
That reads more like a bad, wordy, science joke than an actual hypothesis to me.
They mention that briefly, but yes, this was my initial thought as well. I'm sure there are plenty of people itching to fill the empty space.
I also loved the TL;DR. My first impression wasn't "this guy is an asshole" it was "wow, it's refreshing to see someone openly reject idiots on their blog." Maybe not idiots exactly, but I agree with the derision of…
I may have missed some clarifications, so I feel the need to ask: Did the USG not force Google to comply with their demands, and also keep quiet about it? I know that was the initial story. Or is the issue that Google…
I have this problem too. Am I supposed to be able to derive a date from the calendar? Am I missing some element on the page? I generally don't have a lot of interest in time, so I don't have whatever relevant knowledge…
The big difference there isn't necessarily in the questions, but in the sets of things the questions are applied to. It's still asking the same thing, so I'd say yes. But you might be asking it for different reasons…
I love this idea, and think it's the winning move. A problem I see is in the details, where I wouldn't want to lose X million dollars just to force a dialogue. If I were the entire decision-making branch of Amazon, I…
I kind of feel like "blip" is way, way better than all of the above. It's a word that's already a word, and its use on Blippex is almost congruous with the actual word. In my mind, that's a win.
Thank you for this. Just last week I thought of this, but didn't know there was a name for it, or that it had been used before. I think people are turned off by the idea of some random "crazy" running things, but that's…
Thanks for the response! I had known about CSP but didn't think about it in this context, which is a major neglect on my part.
I have a possibly slightly tangential question for the community: Any solar experts willing to weigh in on the author's assessment of the current state of solar? Specifically, were a sodium ion battery commercially…
In my eyes, this is yet another reason to avoid GoDaddy. I wouldn't invest alongside a known con artist, no matter how she tries to demonstrate her changed nature.
