What? I do it all the time. I say "I would like a large black coffee", and then I get a large black coffee.

I wouldn't go that far, but they are pretty good. Still can't believe there are places where you can get lamb at a mcdonalds.

NOAA has data on miami from 1939 to 1981, so it isn't exactly current. I have no idea why the timeline is so bad though.

Nothing screams quality like designing your car along the lines of some of the worst cars ever produced.

This is a really great point. "Following your dreams" tends to come at the expense of your parents and not yourself. Which is fine if your parents can afford it I guess, but the idea that following your dream is a noble and brave

I learned it in school, so I don't think it is that uncommon. Barely remember it though. Doesn't come up a ton.

Exclusively functional? Yeah, kinda. But I do like it when languages allow me to use functional paradigms internally, so that when a problem is really suited for it I have that option.

I completely agree with you. I just don't want to reinforce the impression that MDMA can be treated/used in the same way as tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, or even LSD. I am not opposed to its use, medically or recreationally, I just

I can have a beer every night for the rest of my life and experience little to no permanent effects. Long term MDMA use on the other hand has been shown to cause "marked neurodegeneration in striatal, hippocampal, prefrontal, and occip

> It disgusts me that the stuff is illegal while cigarettes and alcohol Alcohol and cigarettes are not really comparable to MDMA, and I just wanted to make that point. Marijuana? Sure, in much the same category, probably safer. MDMA is a

MDMA can be extremely dangerous to your long term mental health. I'm not saying it doesn't have valid medical benefits, it certainly seems to, but if you consumed MDMA at any where near the frequency it is safe to consume alcohol

That's what I was wondering. This is way beyond the level of accuracy that I have seen from anything else.

The Nazi party built a great deal of its support on the argument that the wealthy Jews were oppressing the "pure" germans.

Actually you do. "The liberals own the media and the universities, and they are all out to get us, and take away the things we love", is a pretty common narrative. Everybody wants to claim that they are the oppressed group.

Man, this view of getting a PhD, which seems fairly common, is so alien to me. Both my parents are research professors, both regularly have students, and I have never seen any of the misery or stress that people keep bringing up. Sure, if y

Sad, but hardly surprising. It sometimes seems like every company in this position did similar things. Tobacco, Oil, CFCs, Leaded gasoline etc... I'm sure I could come up with others if I looked. This is why I don't understand man

People can't seem to help it. Much the same as when people go abroad and compare everything unfavorably to their home country. Seems like it's reflexive.
