It’s like when you say something is full. Double full doesn’t mean anything, but there’s still a difference between full of marbles and full of sand depending what you’re trying to deduce. There’s functional applications for this comparison. We could theoretically say there’s twice as much sand than marbles in “full” if were interested in “counting”.

The same way we have this idea of full, we have the idea of infinity which can affect certain mathematics. Full doesn’t tell you the size of the container, it’s a concept. A bucket twice as large is still full, so there are different kinds of full like we have different kinds of infinity.

That’s the toolbox fallacy. “If only i had good running shoes I would be motivated to run.”.

1. Youre swapping motivation for anxiety, guilt and frustration. Youre better off paying someone on fiver to shout at you.

2. You won’t survive programming if you can’t get through this part. It doesn’t stop taking effort after you’ve learned the basics.

3. The tutor won’t make it painless, or make it go faster really, and people just end up being agry at the tutor.

You’re much better off joining a community/discord of people learning the same thing, or finding a project/thing you care for, and using common motivational tricks. With youtube/Twitch, it’s easier than ever to find people to help you.

Doesn’t mean it’s worth 30k. There are whiskies just as old and better that aren’t sold at that price.

This item is not sold 30k because its old, or even rare. It’s sold at that price because there’s always a rich sucker who wants something expensive.

What does this even mean? Brave didnt find something to “subvert the advertising model”, they have a subscription lol. Mozilla is trying to keep its browser free and safe, especially now that it’s losing its billion dollar google funding.

Like his/her massive balls for talking about it somewhere.

Exactly. After that he can basically let it go. Unless he has some stake in the company or ite survival, he’s done his job. It’s his bosses problem, the one responsible.

Hmmmm, no that will still take hours or days and he’ll be long gone. The boarding log or the cctv doesn’t make a difference

It’s not a conspiracy theory. Finland really doesn’t exist.

This graph is such bullshit. If you were being honest in your arguments there would be no need to alter the results of the study.

This is the original graph - “About the same” answers were given directly to “worse”, fabricating results.

This is the study. Despite their life “not being better” on average, they still conclude that Communism has its downsides and are in no way saying they want to go back to it.

Read up on sleep cycles and how long your body likes to nap! If you wake up from deep sleep you are groggy for a long time after.

I routinely get hammered till late but as long as I sleep 3, 4.5, 6 hours specifically, I’m fine. Even if I have 4 hours ahead of me, I wake myself up after 3 to snooze and not go into a deep sleep.

There’s a similar timing for naps.

Edit: I’m 35, that probably matters in context

The warmer waters could also mean a place of comfort for you, and by being in a place you like and being comfortable you are more likely to meet someone compatible. It also feels less like a chore because you don’t have to chase or get out of your comfort zone so much.

I like to be alone, I hate when it gets too loud and can easily get overwhelmed by crowds. My wife and I spend plenty of time doing things in our own space or spending weeks apart. We both value alone time. Find yourself someone who values what you value.

119 is too few and 121 is too many.

the bird will never land on your ship if you constantly stand guard to catch it, instead improve your ship and sail into warmer waters; the bird will land while you are not looking

The worlds video game industry*.

They got really buffed on investments during the pandemic like we were going to stay in our house for the rest of our lives.

Now interest is high and investors aren’t as excited. It wouldn’t hurt for the industry to crash and get rid of these moneygrabbers who are in for a short peak, we’d have better games

I tried to turn in my buckets of thank yous at the bank but they didn’t take em. Gonna be windows for now
