I've been noticing the same, this completely breaks searching for reddit results for me

> I suspect the idea that a person speaks more than one language is absent in US silicon valley.

Exactly, it's like they've never left their own state levels of ignorance

Oh god please, this is so important!

Got hit with a popup to signup to something before I could even read their "splash" message, jesus christ

I quoted Cavafy's Ithaka:

"And if you find her poor, Ithaka won’t have fooled you. Wise as you will have become, so full of experience, you’ll have understood by then what these Ithakas mean."

Hey at least those editors actually do something during the publishing process!

> Ask a small hotel owner in one of the islands about their plan of turning their property into a "hacker house" in the off-season.

Maybe instead they should look into making their hotels into "doctor house", or "teacher house" or generally "something affordable by public workers" so that people who move to the island to do their job can have a reasonable life without competing with north EU nomads for living space.

WINTNOG is "RAG"

My PhD supervisor would wash his teeth over the sink where we'd rinse all the gel preparation tools. He got throat cancer in his 50s and died soon after my PhD defense.

How amazing is it to read all this on nature itself, the journal whose peer-review method failed again and again.

His wiki page probably has sources, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Rainer

But in anycase this has little to do with genetics, the poor guy's pituitary was a mess

That would be a good way to strengthen my pinkie, I would also do it the other way around, d to backspace (move the cursor left), f to delete(move the cursor right)

Y'all don't map the Caps Lock to a secondary backspace? Do you never make mistakes? Do you have long fingers that can reach the original backspace without taking your hands off the home row? What do you do ?

Foe me, having a backspace in place of the CapsLocks is absolutely irreplaceable

> time sink without any value

Indeed, time is little and precious and should be spent wisely. Very virtuous of you.

> hobby specific subreddits have wealth of information

Ah the virtue of doing hobbies

> New posts are 99% attention seeking posts without value

Only the most virtuous of us completely avoid the trap of attention seeking, well done.

> political virtue signalling

Ah the biggest virtue of all, avoiding virtue-signalling. You've really tapped into the big one here, well done and thank you for letting us know that you're not some filthy virtue-signaller.

I use uBlacklist, it puts a little "block this domain from results" button next to google results

Or this one :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_0cA8aoOno

Indeed we're running CentOS on the cluster at work. I always wondered, why not Debian ?

> The meaning of the term scientific theory (often contracted to theory for brevity) as used in the disciplines of science is significantly different from the common vernacular usage of theory.[4][note 1] In everyday speech, theory can imply an explanation that represents an unsubstantiated and speculative guess,[4] whereas in science it describes an explanation that has been tested and widely accepted as valid. These different usages are comparable to the opposing usages of prediction in science versus common speech, where it denotes a mere hope.

Please take a minute to consider this and realize that you should never repeat what you just said.

>Conscious experience is a seamless unified whole.

That's not necessarily true. We experience vision as a unified whole as well, but we have a blind spot as well. How would you argue that consciousness is a seamless whole and not just the illusion of one?

You might also want to have some more proofreading done. I cought this "[..]Nat get's a good[..]" 5 seconds into your page

That will just incentivize companies to pay better salaries. Let the market decide what job positions are worth existing

The one beauty I can attribute to polykatoikies is the balconies. They are often filled with plants (at least my parents kept it that way) which makes for your little private oasis in the mess that is Athens.

Neoclassicals don't have that

The reds are coming, run!

The guardian has all their content free and aggressively asks you to subscribe. Maybe there's more to their finances that I don't know about but they seem to be doing well.

I think the guardian and wikipedia have a good working model

They're fools to not make all their content free anyway. I'd only pay for a service I use a lot. How am I gonna develop the habit of using your page a lot if every time I open an article of yours I'm blocked? I'll just go to another site, thank you very much.

"Well it's their choice to be uninsured, if they wanted medical insurance there's a lot of options in the market" guyputtingonclownmakeup.jpg

NY private banks lend money to Mississippi banks. At some later point, the global market crashes and NY ""suddenly discovers"" that Mississippi officials lied about the state's finances. NY now wants their money back in the middle of a world-wide crisis. Mississippi banks can't pay.

Should we force the (next generation of) citizens of Mississippi (who didn't personally lie about anything) to pay all this debt for the next 50 years?

> What happened in Greece instead was that only the borrowers suffered, the lenders got all their money back.

Even worse, it'll be the borrower's children who will suffer the consequences.

I want you to explain to me in what situation such a lender could ever have a loss.

I want you to explain to me why it's reasonable that the lender makes profits when things go right, but the public has to take the loss when things go wrong.

Isn't in the nature of a free market that lending is an inherently risky business ?
