Home office.

Go on - I just can’t get enough of those references…

People’s eyes were hurting, so the sun goddess decided to go easy on them.

Analogy: it’s more realistic to cut a tumor out and heal the patient than to keep it growing at an acceptable rate.

Did you forget an /s?

No one thinks it will suddenly change the poltical views of all their voters. The AfD will no longer sit in every TV show spouting their bullshit. They will not get millions and millions of public money. And they will not become our government. That’s not a narrow success - that would be huge.

Paywall :(

One man’s health risk is another man’s business opportunity (at least in capitalism).

Friska Viljor - The Cure

Yeah, well this isn’t a democracy where people have a say in what happens in our society. Our feudal elite decides what will happen, so stop complaining.

The TikTok trend is the latest example of how Chinese products and consumables are enjoying a cultural cachet they’ve never had before globally.

Well, if the TikTok algorithm says it’s popular, who am I to doubt it?

I like that he is mocking US defaultism and that “the only country” on the Global Peace Council logo “you can fully see” is the US - when you can see at least Mexcio, Honduras, El Salvador, Panama, Nicaragua, Belize, Costa Rica, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname and Canada.

It’s easier finding bugs than producing correct, readbale, maintainable code though-

So the people struggling to lose weight just don’t actually want to lose weight? There are no psychological factors involved at all, no hormones, genetics, environmental factors, education - nothing to figure out?

People who make videos often want you too watch them. That’s not really surprising. They may want to make money that way (because they like money or because that’s the only way to produce high quality videos) and/or genuinely believe that video is the best way to get their point across.

If you’re interested in a written list of the points that’s understandable, but there are more polite ways to ask for that.

edit: there’s even a list in the video description…

That’s a bit like saying “In order to run faster, you need to make longer steps and more steps per minute”. It’s obviously true, but the hard part is how to do that.

It’s not about sex, it’s about power.

but you should not consider faulty business logic as an optional fix

The same goes for unreadable/unmaintainable code (though that’s a bit harder).

TagPro - looks like a really simple webgame, but is honestly one of the best games I’ve ever played. Extremely simple rules, but hard to master. A lot of skillful plays, but also a lot of choas and fun. The community is overall nice and positive (sometimes individual players get a bit frustrated).

If you want to give it a try, go ahead - no account needed. Currently, only the US servers seem to be busy.
