  I didn’t say I agreed with his sense of right or wrong. But it’s very solid.

  Whose page numbers did you pirate?

  To be fair, Rorschach has a few traits worth emulating. He does have a rock solid sense of right and wrong and uhhhh… Yeah no, that’s about it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We can play that game too⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I love paying for schools, because I hate being surrounded by dumb people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is in your pockets?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a lot of wildlife needing rescue in high risk areas though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is in your pockets?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  When the officer asks you to empty your pockets, you say “no thanks”.

  Unless you live in the authoritarian states of America

  Nah, you just need raw power.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where is heart?!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Only if your room is really really warm

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where is heart?!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The latter. Mercury bromide is highly toxic. Its also a solid, not a liquid

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t say anything about 80, but the 20 year old guys I liked when I was 20 are definitely not hot anymore now that I’m in my late 30s. The late 30s guys I used to think we’re basically one foot in the grave look a lot more interesting nowadays.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People in the UK Watching the The world using the internet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s apparently not true, since the majority of you did vote for them.

  I mean, I know how hard it sucks to have that keep happening. I know the only thing worse than having a shit Government is knowing that your idiot countrymen actually want it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Assumptions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, the other part of “why do so many people die from cows” is along the lines of “They work with cow every day”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Libraries are cool⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We had all books stickered on the spine though, with the shelve/genre (for novels) or number (for educational books) and the first three letters of the author’s name. So it wasn’t overly hard and mostly worked out.

  People can mostly manage to match the picture and then alphabetise “DUM”, so the Three Musketeers would generally find it’s way back alright. We still had walks to check though, and that’s probably where my lifeling obsession with alphabetising and straightening shelves comes from. I do it even when i’m in a random bookstore, just alinging the spines with the edge of the shelve after putting a book back.

  I do occasionally cook for larger groups, and you need entirely different techniques. At home, you don’t need to account for the time the water spends between 70 and 100 degrees because that’s a minute at most. When you’ve got a hundred liters of water, that suddenly becomes very relevant. If you set your timer for 10 of actual boiling, your pasta will resemble porridge.

  Also, I don’t personally own cooking gear to make food for 20+ people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Assumptions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why cows kill so many people. Its really easy for an animal five or six times your weight to kill you just by interacting the same way it does with its own species.

  That gets worse as the animal gets bigger.

  And cows are basically calm little angels compared to say, hippos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you explain your grad school research to relatives over Thanksgiving Dinner? - Journal of Astrological Big Data Ecology⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Luckily you have a couple hard copies of your journal paper and an inked up copy of your thesis after reviewer number 2 decided to no longer like his own suggestions on how to graph the mass accuracy

  I hate this because it’s true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Libraries are cool⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For an academic Library, absolutely. But I worked at the local library here, and we didn’t track anything unless you checked out the book.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Libraries are cool⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, are people checking out books, bringing them home and then… Just putting them on the shelves again???

  This person would break the sound barrier on their way out. Mostly on account of the last smart guy trying this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FAWK BAHD! PUT THAT DART OUT!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not in anything Petrochemical. They rulebooks habe a very clear restriction on “anything that is, or appears to be” (a cigarette).

  The Danish people must be salty about that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon travels overseas⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently tried to compare data on morbid obesity, but most countries don’t even have a rate, or only include the data as a sub- 1% share of the obesity.

  And the US it’s 9.5%

  As in, 30% of the US has a BMI between 30 and 40, and 10% is over 40.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kiss kiss, bang bang⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Z values are measurement of how many standard deviations something is from the mean. 95% of your values fall between -2 and +2. Most “interesting cases” are about outliers, something that’s very uncommon. If it’s common, you don’t tend to talk about Z-values.

  The survivorship bias plan shows a world war 2 chart of where the bullet holes were on planes. The conclusion famously isn’t to armor those parts often hit, but to armor the parts that weren’t hit, because no planes hit there returned to be recorded.
