I think there is more to it than just not being able to handle it. Two aspects occurred to me: Having a saturation point : some people just keep on spending, way beyond what they can actually get comfort and enjoyment from. When poor peopl

The problem is that stoic people can suffer a serious social penalty to their interests and the cooperation they get from others. It's expected that, once you are in a bad situation, you fight in an outwardly visible fashion. If you do

I would say by trial and error, although I didn't really experience any bad results yet. When the fire has reached the ember stage, temperature can remain stable for a long time. In general, you can put in things with a large surface-t

Once a year, my friends and I rent a cabin somewhere off the grid. Sometimes, those cabins (or small ex-farms) still have working stone ovens. It's not hard, you make a big fire and when the wood has been reduced to embers and the ston

It's an irrational reaction to a traumatic situation. Although we theoretically have better tools to reason with, humans sometimes react in the same way to these situations. Ambulance crews and emergency workers in general could probab

I was surprised by this as well, so I checked their paper: " When multiple threads need to share a resource, they can pass ownership through channels. However, as we discuss in the rest of this paper, it does not work well in systems t

There is a lot we can do as programmers to make data leaks of that scope a lot harder to pull off. I think web apps of a certain magnitude should not be talking directly to the database, they should be talking to their internal data API tha

This whole thing is ridiculous. While adding these widgets to blocking filters seems like a workable short-term solution, the entire cookie notice scheme is unworkable in the long run. The problem is, this crap will stack up in the future,

At this time, about 70% of people who answered the poll on that page said they're lonely. Of course there is an obvious selection bias, but even so I find that number troubling. Loneliness is different from being alone, or single, or b

Being mainly a web programmer, I get a lot of very bogus inquiries (like re-implementing multi-million dollar websites in a day) and requests from companies doing projects that look very very painful if not outright doomed. I tried several

Absolutely, it took a long time until the games I made on my Amiga could be replicated on the PC. But by the time I was moving away from Amiga, it was clear that its time had passed.

Are you on Firefox by chance? I discovered this week that Firefox doesn't do ES6 on included <script> files unless you specify an explicit content type enabling it (which in turn breaks things on all other browsers).
