Perhaps it was not meant to be a flashy donation but a medium-sized one. It is still an act of good.

I also disagree with the author. They don't consider the relationship between the meme makers/viewers and the demon core incident. And while it was horrific to those involved, most people have experienced maybe 0.1% of that terror

For comedy one needs to subvert expectations, and this is why making light of grave events (Black Comedy) is a big phenomenon. There are many examples from WW2 comedy to 9/11 memes. Sometimes the examples are more indirect, like in fil

I think EU is just building Meta’s monopolistic moat. It creates a chilling effect on challenger tech companies who may not be able to pay these fines. And yet they still know they might be arbitrarily fined. Oh the other hand, one might sa

This reminds me of how in the 18th century, captains in the Royal Navy wouldn't call to abandon ship because that would have career-ending consequences. So there were cases like HMS Tribune in 1797, where it is claimed that only 12 of

And laziness in a way is very natural and healthy. Resting, digesting, being present is boon to longevity, vitality, and creativity. Mindless production has been put on a pedestal too much in recent years.

That's wise and quite emotionally mature. I'm only sharing some thoughts and not attacking anyone. So if it feels a bit like an attack, perhaps one of your core beliefs is being challenged. :)

The author might be struggling with people-pleasing and perfectionist tendencies. People-pleasers often do things because other people would like them more if they did these things. As such, the reward for work like writing a blog article i

It is of course a great effort that these scientists are undertaking, not to be diminished by any healthy scepticism. Thank you for looking into this. Hopefully this will advance to clinical trials in the future.

I agree that many types of treatments have been advancing. Closed loop is a good example, and stem cell-based islet transplants are in real clinical trials now. We have gotten synthetic insulins that act much faster like Fiasp and stuff lik

This is currently in a category of cures that are always a decade away. I am happy that the researchers are putting it out there to attract interest and investment, but the GRI-type insulins remained in lab settings for about 30 years now a

Sunbeam is a popular one. Also a bunch of Nokias should work. There is also the Xiaomi/Qin/Duoqin F30. It’s a T9 phone with Android 11. But the “Westernized” version with Google Play Store has tampered with software (hacks applied

That’s a nice compendium of methods. I tried almost all of them, they all work to an extent. I now use a smartphone again, as practicalities of life demand it. But I am switching to an old sluggish iPhone with a 4.X inch screen to hopefully

That’s why it’s important to have tech that serves you, like a dumbphone. You throw your smartphone away (leave it in your car, leave it at work, throw it in the deep end of your attic, etc), make it really inconvenient to act in these comp

Yes, or some regions in China have pretty good battery swap infrastructure, for example NIOPower. Whatever the solution, there isn't one in the UK. I think UK has to get over its NIMBYism before any serious infra projects can take plac

I agree. What I said may have come off as ridicule. This campaign is an important effort. I argue that we should have more such efforts, bigger efforts, and even alternative efforts to prevent people’s addiction to social media.
