Same! Sometimes what you need to relax is garbage television and that’s ok.
Could you elaborate? My understanding of anarchism is the goal of eliminating government. That won’t eliminate an economic system that originated organically.
And price controls have a pretty terrible track record of providing a net benefit.
In reality, it was just ‘Surfin Bird’ by the Trashmen.
This is such a great story premise. The Spirit Halloween employees are tortured spirits that only get to interact with the mortal plane to work as retail employees one month a year.
The Ethiopian alphabet (abougida) has this feature, but it goes one step further. Every vowel consonant pair (aka every syllable) has it’s own symbol. That sounds like a lot of symbols, and it is, but the beauty of it is that the vowel sounds are just modifiers of the consonant. So you only have to memorize the consonant symbols and the modifiers and you can reduce drastically reduce the number of letters needed plus have a completely phonetic writing system.


Robotics (or more broadly mechatronics) is a super interesting field. To do the work at the mechanical/electrical interface is really hard.
The field of industrial controls skips the hard part and just buys stuff that is pre-designed to move. Then those pre-designed pieces are made to fit and work together. It’s like complicated Legos and is honestly very fun and rewarding.
If you want to do programming with a physical result, controls engineering is a great option. I would recommend shooting for the hard stuff (real programming - DSP, FPGA, etc) knowing you’ve got a safe fallback with industrial controls (PLC programming).
Nice of the billionaire to vacate perfect real estate for city owned grocery stores


What is the other meaning of undead?
This writeup is such an interesting perspective of social media.
It’s the medium for the human hive mind. It’s civilization’s consciousness. It’s beyond any individual’s control or comprehension, and it exists for advertising…


This honestly reads like a bad commercial you’d hear on the radio.
Are there any foundations that distribute donations to various FOSS projects?


I agree, we all have search engines and if someone doesn’t understand a word or phrase they can learn it on their own. Brilliant write up!
That is the fanciest ping pong paddle satchel I’ve ever seen! It’s also the first.
