- Comment on Look Ma, No Batteries! Hands On With Lenovo's Self-Charging Keyboard 1 week ago:
It says in the article
Unlike conventional batteries, supercapacitors have an exceptionally long lifespan, lasting hundreds of thousands of charge-discharge cycles, whereas lithium batteries typically last only five years or less.

It doesn’t say what type of capacitor is used
Yes, it does. They’re supercapacitors.

angry tone.
Sarcastic tone, you’re reading what I wrote in an angry voice. Try reading with a happy voice. 😉
that’s 1000+ years of potential change that we have no way of disproving.
What if that’s not the point?
“Oh, but it’s not exactly what that person said!”
So what? Taking sentences out of context is bad interpretation anyway, especially if we aren’t reading the original language with the original cultural context (again, which was over 2 thousand years ago).
You’re arguing for the letter of the law, I’m arguing for the spirit.
- Comment on Behold currently! 3 weeks ago:
I wonder if those stories even matter, like they are from a culture so far removed from us (over 2 thousand years) that the lessons probably should be hard interpreted.
We wouldn’t like people to have differing opinions about stuff? Everyone should believe what we believe, think what we think. /s

Maybe this is how the bible was written, rewritten and evolved over time.
Nope. But it is sometimes in how it is interpreted, and translated.
We have biblical manuscripts that date back past 100 BC. Can’t rewrite something which we have original manuscripts of.

The business logs how often you use the game. They use it as a metric of engagement. If everyone breaks their streak, their marketing department has a melt down.

I see economists complaining about variations of this policy being bad, e.g. leading to food desserts.

I guess that’s why they call it capitalism.
- Comment on Anon mows lawns 3 months ago:
We don’t know the size of the section, or the quality of the job.
So that could be: “God damn, that’s cheap!” or “God damn, that’s expensive!”
If he is getting tips, then it may actually be reasonable. Genuine question, do Americans normally tip the people who mow their lawns?

But thank you for mansplaining my lived experience, champ.
Mansplaining is asking questions? Odd.
Couldn’t have navigated that one with my pea sized, woman’s brain.
See, I never claimed you had a pea sized brain. I don’t know where you’re getting this from.
I go through life making snap judgements of people
I can see that. No further questions from me.

The most likely scenario is that the person with first-hand knowledge misinterpreted the situation.
Exactly. Which is why I started with questions so you could explain more. That’s how a conversation works and prevents it from getting toxic.
These poor men and their sensitive feelings…
Case and point.

it was so obvious how inferior they perceived us women to be
How do you know that they perceived you as inferior? Did they actually say “Women are inferior to men.”?
Very few of them had the skills to warrant any level of arrogance, let alone full blown superiority complex.
It sounds like they felt intimidated in a new environment, and they were trying to find their position in the team. That’s disappointing for all parties.
