Fun implies some utility. I like being around the friend because we’re doing fun stuff, like partying or joking around. Joy means that whatever we do, I am simply happier because I am with the person. We could be doing non-fun stuff, like f

Nothing about emotions really? Wtf is wrong with sociologists, why must everything be so transactional? I just fucking like being with my friends. It brings me joy. Utter joy: no fun, no career advancement, no playing tennis, no life advice

I don't know you, but I have no idea what this person is talking about. If I had to guess, I'd say it's an academic talking to other academics about some internal fight about whether or not using big data crap to study social

Let’s say your grid is 8x8, you could make a pointer that’s 16x16 and that you can move around with the arrow keys. When it touches a node, then the node is selected. But then you can hold ctrl to jump from one node to another, if they’re a

To all Visual Node Graph editor developers, I have a request: Can you guys make nodes snap to a grid? This would make graphs a lot cleaner AND could be made browsable by keyboard.

The only information I need: horizontal angle:110, vertical angle 90. Garbage. I don’t know how anyone finds these experience immersive.

Cause they don’t like it? They don’t eat rabbits either, for what it’s worth. That said, it’s not that easy to find peanut butter in Europe.

I am complaining because in today's world where rationality is under siege, articles that cite "science" as a way to turn divination into fact don't do service to true scientific method.

Agreed, mandatory 2-factor authentication through ios/android is really what screws you. You can totally do without for the rest.

Sometimes, scientists get too much time on their hands so much so that it doesn't do a service to science. I mean you can have fun in your free time predicting the end of mammals' life. But what's the point of writing a publi

Not sure it's worth the time looking for free credits. Even if you get a year for free you'll end up saving maybe $500 max. If you're worried about costs, look for alternatives. In the apps you've listed, only Figma is a

This is why AI is going to be regulated. It’s fairly obvious by now.

Anyone doing this for cars? I feel cars are much worse than browsers in terms of screwing their buyers and much easier to topple. Way to go. Godspeed.

Haha reminds me of Lorenzo, a French rapper who split his album into 68 30-second tracks just to mess with Spotify. The album got withdrawn within minutes but the buzz worked well!

Chatlango is going to be in a very crowded space. Kind of startup that requires running at a loss for a while. And since funding is not exactly what it used to be, it’s a gamble. Could generate some passive income though. Hyperaide is going

TDD is a tradeoff. TDD improves good design *for the user* at the expense of implementation design *for the coder*. Because you write how the code is going to be used first, you're completely free of implementation constraints, so you

It’s a standard active voice sentence. “that I will always remember” is a relative clause applying to “one”.

The guy is the best contemporary musician alive, period. His influence on music keeps being felt 2 decades after his peak. I only saw him once, at the LED festival in london, the sound was garbage and die Antwoort were dancing over it dres

I asked to cut my working hours to 22 hours per week. Then I don't have the time to slack so much. I bring in about 120k which is more than decent to live on in Europe. It leaves me a lot of time to raise my kids, fix my home, garden,
