I had to look this up and you're right: the "sugary drink tax" excludes fruit juice. Also, Starbucks is exempt.

There are answers to this. I asked myself this a few years ago, which led recursively to new tricky questions. I eventually solved the tree of the questions: I designed myself into a solution that I later realized was essentially an asymmet

Yeah, this one is a true illusion: they're actually the same color, unlike the shoe example.

I'm still not convinced. They said the answer is pink. But...it wasn't pink, even to their own admission. A pink shoe, when placed under pure-green lighting is no longer pink: at this point we're out of illusion territory and

The crocs illusion is just plain wrong. It says "the correct answer is <pink>". They then contradict themselves by saying it's green-gray. It's green-gray. Am I crazy? Any else's thoughts?

The above-posted scenario is a great reason to hate it. It's destroying developers' documented rationale for each change.

This article bothers me a little bit. It makes it sound like the brain is completely structureless, and that the division of brain into "parts" is a myth. I'm not a neurologist but this seems a disingenuous. Surely we know th

Coincidentally I just discovered today that my Xfinity modem was broadcasting a public "xfinitywifi" by default. I only became an Xfinity customer a few weeks ago and had no idea. I even read all the terms of agreement and never s

I've noticed this is a pattern, sort of like Poe's law but for "satirical"-yet-monetized products. I.e., "without a clear indicator of the creator's intent, it is impossible to distinguish between a product or

I imagine Olive Garden similarly wouldn't mind this website, but who knows. Maybe they'll take it down because they take it seriously and want in on the profits?
678.
by notfed 5y ago
Hmm, valid analogy. Arguably they're satirizing Olive Garden as well, here, though? Alternatively, the creator could crank up their Olive Garden satire a little more to pass this test?

No... We observe with telescopes that the universe is expanding. We don't know why, so we call the mysterious force dark energy. It's just a name for something that we are objectively observing. (Also this has nothing to do with d

The controversy is that it twists the standard definition of "on": the video boldly asserts its shocking answer of 1/d at first, only later to admit (with very little clarity) that the 1/d answer is only true if your def

I still don't buy "then yes this is correct". If "ON" is defined as a state where ANY electromagnetic field flows into the lightbulb, then it is "ON" even before you throw the switch, because other photons

Java 10 introduced "var", which broke code with variables named "var". I'm glad they did not introduce a new language JavaWithVar.

Success! Per your suggestion, I used Chordino plugin with Sonic Visualizer. I pumped in one of my old recordings and it showed me "B6" and "Dmaj7". However, this was only so helpful. It would have been better if it show

I think some of us are more sensitive to criticism than others (?). I'm like this. I have several projects that took me forever to showcase due to anxiety of negative criticism. Advice given to me was to post your projects anyway and d

As an amateur musician I see this as a missing holy grail killer app. I'd love to have it just to pull the chords out of some of my own old recordings that I can't figure out how to repeat. If anyone knows of any apps (even protot

On an individual basis it's sometimes hard to see the harm in this. But more specifically the problem with version identifiers is that attackers can scan across many servers, iterating which ones have a certain vulnerable version.

I see videos with more dislikes than likes pretty regularly when searching for tutorials or DIY videos. Avoiding those has surely saved me a lot of time.

If you want this to succeed, I suggest you change the name. This is like starting a band named "The Beetles". Word about your band will never spread, because people who hear the name in passing will will subconsciously read or hea
