(I'm also not a lawyer) Does it matter? From my perspective, that contractual problem is between AZ and the UK, not between the EU and the UK. If I buy 100 doses from AZ and you buy 100 doses, and AZ only has 125, one of the contracts

I don't know how to "explain" intuition, but usually I imagine not myself but some kind of geometric shape in front of a mirror (say a square with the edges labelled). If I try to visualize how light bounces, it is intuitive

Agree. I don't mean to belittle people that get confused by this (many other things perplex me), but this always seemed very intuitive to me.

I never saw Hacker News as a "international computer news web site". Usually, in my favourite threads, someone posts a problem (be it a deadly amoeba in the water supply, be it an unsolved math theorem) and in the comments solutio

I find it incredible that some people enjoy liquorice (the stuff tastes vile to me). Ironically, I know some people that think the same of me when I tell them I love cilantro.

Perhaps I'm reading too much into this, but perhaps a site trying to seriously discuss bias against Breitbart shouldn't use :ok: as a favicon.

I agree, except for learning = pain. I find that, like most things, it’s all to do with context. If I’m “forced” to learn something (e.g. exam, deadlines,etc) I find it painful. If I’m doing it on my own, with no pressure, I find it enjoyab
