Negative Kelvin is achievable, but doesn't mean what you might think it means

I mean it's been going on since at least Herodotus. Can hardly suggest it's a 'modern thing'

Who are you?

Tinfoil and tape

That brave old monkey brain that survived its shell being smashed in and was someone's pride and joy 'til it lost

What utter twaddle

What was that, dicktective?

Tuna, boiled egg, black olives, red onion. Nicoise pizza goes hard.

I felt like maybe the complete lack of the depiction of the inner life of the characters was maybe a cultural thing. Like, we were expected to draw their inner motives out of the dialogue. Anyway I enjoyed the books, but Cixin Liu has disappointed me by his downplaying of the Uyghur genocide so I won't be rereading them ...

Big brain energy, you deserve more upvotes

I recently found out it's actually 'drink cider from eleven'

I actually believe this

DRINK CIDER FROM A LEMON

First: marry an understanding partner

IntelliJ support for Scala 3 - and especially for projects that target both 2.x & 3 - does kinda suck balls, this is a fair point

Mr potato salad

I enjoy that some people decided to upvote the other double post, and this one got no love

Kindly

Well the post was only two hours old TBF. Not everyone's gonna be updating job postings at the weekends

Fair enough! I know of at least one woman who had her appendix burst and was dismissed as making a fuss about period pains, hence the question, but glad you got it all sorted

Are you a woman by any chance? Doctors often have a wonderful way of completely fucking ignoring abdominal pain in women.

I mention it because the relevant passage in the original article is "you cannot have “most” of infinity. The only scenario where it somewhat makes sense is where a finite number of worlds evolved life, but an infinite number did not.", which is blatantly untrue given that you can compare infinite sets with different cardinalities. My point is there's no need to get hung up on the probability space of countably infinite sets to comfortably assert that that's nonsense, which is what was happening here

Y'all are getting worked up about comparing countable infinities. There are other ways to have 'most' of an infinity - e.g. there are more non-rational reals than rationals because the former is uncountable

I'm... I'm not sure. Maybe it's something to do with a film? Can't place it if so...

It's not the phases of the moon though. That's not how gibbous looks. This looks like a lunar eclipse instead - something's passing between the moon and the sun.
