Pointing on hypocrisy often called whataboutism, but it is still valid consideration.

… and of trees in general.

I still use Winamp 5.5 or something, before it became bloated. Still kicks the same ass. Llama’s

How many miles?

I sit corrected.

Never heard that cats were doing yoga.

Indeed, it is hilarious (not)

Yes, somehow quantum mechanics is more clear. Maybe because it is usually studied after thermodynamics?

Both linear linear and parabolic descriptions of a bullet trajectory are approximations of a drag curve, that can be obtained only numerically.

I don’t think so. You are five minute to gay.

Unrelated, but it is interesting that people ask for addictive games rather than for good games. Those are not the same.

Nah. It is DOS with Norton Commander.

Somewhat unrelated, the dissolution of self can be understood with training and meditation. As I understand, the Buddhist tradition of Dzogchen (that has meditation as practice) is something like that. It is translated to modern secular meditation practices by people like Sam Harris.

He said “as pure logos”. I think it was meat as comparison, not as actual being. Like in “he scaled the wall as fast cat”.

It stresses the clarity with which you see the validity of your understanding, because what is more clear than “word/reason/logos”? But yet the understanding itself while being clear is not logos, only clear as logos.

I can so relate!

“Self is an illusion!”, “The meaning of life is to create meaning for the universe!” are so banal when you say it aloud, or even type.

We do what we can, because we must!

Those who think that labor market under capitalism gives uncompetitive salaries (that is below that what market would give in equilibrium) are wrong. The salaries are higher than supply and demand in equilibrium would give. This is why people do not want to lose the job, because they are afraid that other jobs would pay less (meaning that they are getting more than equilibrium would give) or that they just become unemployed. This is also why there is unemployment - businesses prefer to have less work places and pay more, so that they get the best employees.

This is actually classical example where market (labor market) does not work as wished by market supporters (achieving no unemployment)- there always will be unemployment and at the same time there will be always unhappy people who are afraid of losing their jobs. But uncompetitive salaries is not one of the problems of the free labor market. Small salaries, maybe, but not uncompetitive.

Thank you, kind stranger. Corrected.

AI is a tool, and one need to learn using it. But even today, just two years from introduction to the public (LLMs) it has lot’s of uses. This is one of the fastest adoption of nearly any technology.

In my area the clouds were of just right density to look at the sun without glasses. It was surreal.
