Point 5 is often false. Having to park my car at B, and then again at A when I get home, can be a significant hassle. Far easier to simply arrive and have no vehicle to worry about. Driving also takes effort and can be stressful in traffi

I immediately thought of this as well. Step 12 cracked me up! 12) Take a chromium-etched photo-lithographic quartz mask with your desired circuit pattern and shine a laser beam through it to project the circuit pattern onto the wafer. &quo

Unpopular opinion: Trying to shoehorn all of Unicode into domain names was a bad idea. We should have stuck with case-insensitive ASCII [A-Za-z0-9-].

I'm confused. I can create a poll with a question and options, and then... ? If I share the link, it just lets more people edit the same poll. How does anyone vote?

This is really too slow. Using "ls -alR /" to list the metadata of every file on my entire hard drive (13,000,000 files) only takes about 25 min.

This debate is frustrating because it lacks data — it's full of opinions about which risk is worse than which other. To compare the risks and benefits, we need to know how often people actually re-use passwords, use 2FA, rely solely on

Your estimate is "about $8" but 7.32 + 0.70 is 8.02, which you can't pay for with $8. Your example is actually a great illustration of why expecting people to calculate taxes in their head doesn't work. If you are tryin

That's how I experience mental visualization as well. It's as if there is one framebuffer in front of my head (what I see in the real world, or inside my eyelids when my eyes are closed), and a separate imaginary framebuffer that

Yes, I have another framebuffer too. It's interesting to me that it seems to be located a little bit above and behind my head. Does it feel to you like your framebuffer is physically located at any particular place? One interesting e

Some ceramic bowls turn into lava in the microwave. Often when I reheat soup in a bowl, the bowl becomes hotter than the soup. The bowl is too hot to touch, yet the soup is only somewhat warm. Some bowls are more prone to this than others

Exactly. "Asking" is about communicating, and "Guessing" is about understanding. Being aware of other people's needs matters. Expressing your own needs matters. Both are important skills, and if you completely refus

Ask and Guess are each presented as extremes, which isn't that helpful. People don't belong 100% to one side or the other. If someone really behaved according to all the "Ask culture expectations," they would be selfish

Once upon a time, I went looking for a MacOS CSV viewer and was surprised that there weren't one or two widely used, clearly awesome options. I went hunting. I downloaded Modern CSV, hopeful that it would be a quick and easy solution.
