Kids are savant at learning ”muscle memory skills”. But there is a reason 2nd graders dont do book reviews of classic literature. Even though they can absolutely read the complex words out loud on autopilot any day of the week.

Nope, not just PCs, just electronics in general. The pandemic allowed tens of millions of well-off western office workers to move out of tiny urban flats into more spacious housing. While having to spend a lot of time in their new homes, wh

Why would any company spend 2 years to train a junior, only for that junior to jump ship? Oh and it's not that easy to even find a "trainable" junior. Even if you have a fairly strict hiring process, at least 1/3rds of t

If 70% of your population is vaccinated, it doesnt mean the virus spreads 70% slower. It instead means that there are 20 million potential virus hosts in the UK instead of 67m. Way more than the population of lots of EU countries.

Also lots of previously vaccinated people were exposed, but didn’t get infected. Doesn’t mean their immune system did nothing though. I’d wager a lot of UK population basically got an ”organic 3rd vaccine dose”. My prediction is they have p

”I feel like 9 out of 10 job ads for a frontend developer mention React.” Those jobs are not for developing webSITES. They are for web APPLICATIONS, which need a lot more developer manpower than just basic sites. So of course the demand wil

Yep. It's hard to wrap your head across the fact just how small human populations used to be, and how slowly things changed. For the vast majority of our species history, people in tint populations lived the exact same way for thousand

It's so interesting. There's a huge amount of privacy-related online REEEing about irrelevant issues, such as anonymized error telemetry in open source software. Yet when mobile phone carriers sell your real-time location data to
