    It’s kind of a thing in certain animals, but not wolves like originally claimed. The certain animals here being mostly primates, so it’s even more applicable.

    That said, the politics of social primates are notoriously complex and many cultures have unique behaviors within the species, so there aren’t really any universal rules particularly among the most social groups.





  • Even knowing about the sentence structure “Do x by today”, this post is phrased weirdly.

    The top text uses the pattern "effect by amount", which leads people to see today as an amount in the bottom text. The bottom text is also a different kind of sentence entirely; “Shortening the lives of the rich by today” is a sentence fragment and needs to be modified, perhaps like “Me when I’m shortening the lives of the rich” to fit the format, or “Shorten the lives of the rich today” to fit the conclusion of the top text.

    In any case, the format of the meme, the top text, and the bottom text do not rhyme, which makes them difficult to understand in relation to each other.











  • Can you walk 24 hours a day though? Your body automatically breathes during sleep, but you need to be awake to walk and not be doing anything that requires you to sit still.

    Sleeping, a sit down meal, commuting, office work, even exercise like biking and swimming, all require breathing and not taking steps.




  • As a newcomer to CLIs, GUI are great because you don’t need to know what you’re looking for. I can just open the devices window, and they’re all there, with most of the extra hardware stuff that’s not actually a real device already cleaned out.

    To do the same with a CLI would take me 10 minutes of looking up what the hardware commands are, 5 minutes figuring out flags, and 30 minutes researching entries to see if they’re important. Even just a collapsible list would make that last step so much easier. And no, I can’t grep for what I need, because I don’t know what I need, I just know something in there is important with a vague idea of what it might look like.

    Once I figure that all out for one thing, the best I can do is write that to a notes file so I don’t need to search so far next time, but there’s a good chance that I’ll need a different combination of commands next time anyway.

    Not hating on CLIs, just wishing I could figure out how to use them faster.
