“Pardon my cacography” sure has a better ring to it than, “can you read this?”

Ideally, if you can and know when you will use it, refrigerate them already before you open any jar, this reduces the time window when bacteria or molds can grow.

Don’t let an Italian catch you calling a Bialetti coffee an espresso.

I must’ve played a ton of trash games that I purged from my memory, but one notable one that comes to mind is Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun. The game was super highly anticipated and hyped and I was a massive C&C fan before, only to be completely disappointed by this massive turd that they shat on this genre defining franchise. The revolutionary “physics” did nothing to the game play, the main story was maybe a total of 4 hours and it was just buggy as fuck with the AI pathfinding being incredibly bad and somehow worse than the predecessors or the main other RTSs of the time.

I read the whole series and somehow missed this, I did chalk up a lot of things to “must be a chinese cultural thing”, like the whole idea of all nations actually working together or globally banning “escapism” and just suspended my disbelief, so maybe I glossed over that bit as well. Is there a good article that dives into this?

A comma here could also be parsed as a vector, an apostrophe has never been used in numbers as anything other than a thousand separator. Well, except as the transpose command in Matlab… or to indicate a character vector… fuck. Just use scientific notation or spell it out for large numbers.

There’s a word for if you mean exactly two: two.

Commas don’t belong in numbers, not as a thousands separator and definitely not as a decimal point.

Also ISO8601 and that dark theme should be the default

It exists in real life too

What is cluster B?

What about Claustro-, Arachno-, Haemo-, etc.phobes? Or Cyclists or Scientists?

Literally having a criminal prosecutor run against a convicted criminal is kind of beautiful.

Thanks, Harris.

There are moments in history that completely change the course of events for decades to come. We just witnessed literal inches between two possibly extremely different futures. Very strange feeling.
