migrants were capturing the geese from the local park pond and eating them

This is totally fine by me, I don’t see the problem

Good question! I have heard that there are people who exchange money for labor, and I require money to purchase basic necessities such as food and shelter

Remember kids, when brown people do something bad, it’s terrorism. When white people starve an entire population after a failed occupation, that’s just because we are very concerned about misogyny. Now, starving an entire country en masse has (to my knowledge) never caused a government to be overthrown, and in this case has no chance of improving the treatment of women in the country. Nor have women in Afghanistan ever asked for sanctions, nor do they support them now that they are in place. But don’t let that fool you in to thinking we’re doing it for any reason other than to help women in Afghanistan.

Before you respond, please take a look at my post and notice I said _nothing positive about the Taliban _. This is about the disingenuous use of women’s rights to excuse and even celebrate mass starvation.

Are those graphs accurate? The modern one seems right, but I have no idea about pre-revolution France

Q: What did Marie Curie say to Albert Einstein?

A: At speeds approaching c, I still have one more Nobel prize than you

The song goes “Pinky and the Brain, one is a genius, the other’s insane”, which, if it implies anything, implies Pinky is the genius and Brain is the insane one

The idea that “we should take drastic action to stop global warming” is more extreme than “we should do nothing and allow the planet to become incapable of supporting civilization” is a huge problem.

Playing video games isn’t optimal, but it is better than spending two hours teaching yourself that bed isn’t the place you sleep. If you don’t fall asleep in ~30 minutes (or feel like you won’t fall asleep) get up and read something, and try again in an hour or so.

Keto-mojo asked for their address and phone number, so they said they were homeless and lost their phone, and it worked

I found Kreia’s “nuance” tedious. I help someone and she’s all “but if you force them to help themselves they’ll be stronger”. Shut up space Ayn Rand

Wow, really? I was under the impression soda is good for your health. Tell me more.

No, by our current understanding there is no length smaller than a Planck length, and any distance must therefore be divisible by an integer. That is, the length is made up of discrete quanta. Pi, or any other irrational number, is by definition not divisible by an integer, or it would be a ratio, making it rational. This has nothing to do with the accuracy or precision of our measures.

Plus, if you have two people with legit access, you can pretty easily figure out what’s going on and defeat it.

My only guess as to what this could mean is that since quantum mechanics is quantum, i.e. discrete, the universe therefore cannot be continuous as the reals are. But this is a category error. Just because you could never find an object that is, say, exactly pi meters long, does not mean that the definition of pi is threatened. There’s nothing infinite that we can observe, but infinity is still a useful concept. And it works both ways; just because quantum mechanics is our best model of the universe doesn’t mean the universe is therefore quantum. 150 years ago everyone believed the universe was like a big clockwork mechanism, perfectly deterministic, because Newtonian physics are deterministic. And who knows, maybe they were right, and we just don’t have the framework to understand it so we have a nondeterministic approximation!

So because quantum mechanics is well modeled by imaginary numbers, the existence of quantum particles threatens the definition of irrational numbers? That doesn’t make any sense.
