I know it's a serious topic, but now I'm picturing the most petulant person on Earth being picky about service members. Ugh, that tattoo is too small. Boots aren't shiny enough, next! Red hair? Nope! Only the perfect soldier will be allowed to make the ultimate sacrifice for me!

Dang. I've never been a sports enjoyer, but I still really liked your videos. They often made me feel like I could sorta understand the appeal of sports.

I wonder if it's from seeing science only via tv/movies, where the scientists are out-of-touch elitist busybody assholes who think they're better than everyone else.

The discovery of insulin sounds absolutely absurd if you describe it in a sneering and contemptuous way.

I keep telling people, it's only 95% hyped up trash, not 100%
Also,that 5% is gonna be a lot of really boring and technical crap that is impossible to turn into a clickbait headline, and you're probably not gonna get rich from it.
Stuff comparable to `git`. Powerful, useful and so boring.

So there was this part of town we all called the "goondocks" and hey where are you going?

I have been getting a ton of use out of that Ethnic Cleansing is Wrong drawing. Absolutely perfect for the moment.

We can debate whether or not it's a "good" idea, but surely we're all feeling amazed right now.

It's why I'd rather spend 20 hours automating a task that I'll do twice a year that only takes 2 hours to do manually.

So, like I was joking in my other comment, but the earliest reference I could find from you saying this looked to be about 2020.
Does it go back further? I wanna be able to quantify when I say "for years"

At least since 2020

obsequiousness!
I learned that word from a computer game that came out in the 80's, I had to look it up in a dictionary and it finally paid off after all these years.

Maybe it's a generational thing / age gap.
I thought she was pretty good in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome but I didn't really ever connect with her music much, and if she had controversial views I guess I haven't been keeping up.

I've heard something along those lines before. I assumed it was ironic in Evangelion, but I think Jeffries is a big enough dolt that he's being sincere.

I was skeptical, then I looked closely at the picture. 100% correct.

The photographer must be antisemitic for... hold on this can't be right *checks notes* depicting the police officers as vampires? I think I have my talking points mixed up.

First, "Inbred dawn" is an excellent pun.
But second, given the context, I think they might just be teasing you for trying to claim that a drawing of American police officers was somehow invoking antisemitic vampire stereotypes.

I understand why people are pushing back against this, trying to explain why it's okay, but hey, everyone already gets it. That's why the vehicular manslaughter thing got brought up, we know you wanna say something mean so we found something you can use instead. You are being shown grace by friends.

I did for a brief period in High School when I was on the Academic Decathlon team.
But it was like, cram all night the day before the competition and it's out of my brain the next day.
I probably have at least a few of them in long term memory.

Hell yeah. I wanna hollow that out and pour soup in it.

In the source control world, Git can do that sort of thing, but I don't know if you'd be happier with something like Git.
It's a really crunchy tool that even technically savvy people tend to bounce off of, but maybe a less obtuse version could be made for photo editing.

Like not every day of course, that'd be silly. This sort of thing would be for special occasions only.

He read an article about how antimatter engines would work, what more could you ask for?

I've looked at my own posts and I probably wouldn't follow me, so I don't feel bad if other people don't either.
I mean, I'm flattered when they do, but I hope they don't have high expectations.

Most humiliating possibility: have you checked to see if it's stuck with static electricity to your back.

My strategy is to spend hours/days/months looking, then give up and buy a new one. Then I put the new one away, in a safe place where I won't lose it again, and that's where I find the old one.

The giveaway was that instead of a painfully ignorant quote, it was a whimsically ignorant quote.

Democracy Dies in Darkness makes more sense as an aspirational mission statement than a dire warning.

I wish there were more granular ways to use moderation lists. Like, to use a food analogy, high follow counts smells a bit "off" but you wouldn't want to throw out fancy good cheese by that rule.
Moderation and curation is really hard!

A lot of classic documentaries are just as long or longer, but they're split into episodes to fit a TV format. If they'd have been made for YouTube they easily could have been in a single 20 hour-long video.

Sometimes I think there's a nugget of truth underneath comments like this, I think he's right about alienation, but wrong about it being from feminism. But at the same time I can't imagine talking someone down from this apologia and back towards something real.

I hate that phrase. If something was $10, then 10 times less is negative $90.

As a tip, it might help to rearrange the data so that the two inputs are in alphabetical order prior to importing. Once you do that, the patterns should jump out of the page at you. #AdventOfCode

I heard that in Canadian doctor's offices, they have big rooms full of seats where you have to sit before your appointment. Waiting for treatment is such a big thing that they have dedicated "Waiting rooms."
Do they have these in the US? I'm not sure, can't afford to find out.
