Matter cannot be created nor destroyed. And elemental conversion is a big deal - usually involving nuclear fission or fusion. Batteries do become depleted but the lithium never disappears, I guess simply put a reverse potential is no longer

Failure should be a part of learning and we should learn to embrace failure. My poster child example of this is tracking falling down when ice skating / skiing. Not falling is a poor metric of success as you see many people not fall bu

Zen meditation seems to be the meditation I have experienced and practised. Both formally and informally. I am unsure this form could lead me to completely fall off the rails, but I also don't think I could sincerely practise it for mo

And you are under appreciating the myriad ways differences can express themselves in nature. We share 50% of the same DNA as a banana, and we're 98.8% the same as a chimpanzee. Spurious examples aside, the pandemic has highlighted ethn

Not that long ago the most powerful and free country in the world was engulfed in chaos after the killing of George Floyd. The event was polarising and you had your anti-rioter camp and anti-police camp. It should not be hard to see how the

I always find these kinds of thought processes interesting "day trading always leads to losses". As with poker, anything which is predictable can lead to meta strategy which can be gamed: this is why GTO players can be outplayed b

A Chinese restaurant in Lambeth tried disabling uber eats a few years back and running their own delivery service. Our food arrived TWO HOURS after ordering and cold. I'd really rather NOT go back to the old way.

I mean there's an old anecdote about how Chess was seen as dangerously addictive. In any case, I think making something that is emergently addictive or addictive because it is fun is different from engineering something to be addictive

I bought my cans when I was fresh out of uni and entering the workforce. They were only £125 which in the grand scheme of things isn't that expensive but I wanted at least 5 years but ideally a lot longer out of them. My Bose QC1s bare

Oh yes - ceviche is a fantastic shout. If you want onions, maybe red onions will pair better with the strawberry? I do enjoy this side of cooking, it's basically a form of problem solving where the pay off is delicious food! Happy I&#x

I find it curious when people give these institutions the benefit of the doubt. It flies in the face of the history of the industry and also what we know about basic human nature. I've moved around these types of social circles to know

100k usd ~ 70k gbp Sure it's not unliveable but the original parent was making out like 100k would let you be rich - my point was in the megacities you're not even close. Also fwiw I've lived 4 years of my life inside zone 1.

No one seems to mention that a million streams is actually not that high. It's a big number but if 10k people listen 100 times that's not huge. Good music is typically listened to multiple times - if you really like a song and you

It is a good salary but you need to appreciate that in many of the world's megacities - NYC, SF, LDN, SG 100k USD won't even get you a particularly good apartment to rent. So it's all relative really. Tho yes, it's a fun
