Decorative plants are great, but harvesting something from your plants (especially if that product is otherwise hard to get / of poor quality / very expensive) is extremely rewarding!

Yes, but the conventions about when to use normal, en, and em dashes persist. When writing documents in LaTeX, you simply use -, --, or — depending on which dash you want (and there are linters warning you about using the wrong kind of dash). Are you suggesting I should use the wrong kind of dash on purpose, just because AI uses the right kind of dash? We might as well start spelling words wrong on purpose then

Why is every sentence a new paragraph? This is the kind of typesetting you use when you have to fill a certain number of pages and have run out of things to say. And what’s up with the typewriter font?

Depends on when you start work. If I get to work at 8, it’s tough to get to lunch at 12 without a breakfast. If I get up an hour later, it’s fine

Zippo sucks. If you don’t wear it on your body, it will be too cold and won’t work. And if you leave it lying around for some time, the gas will evaporate and it’ll be empty when you want to use it

Yes, that’s exactly why many universities have classes like ‘maths for electrical engineering’

I’m genuinely curious: are there adverse effects to an arrangement where the right lane is used by large trucks going 90-100 kph, middle lanes used for normal traffic going 120-130 kph and the left lane kept open for faster traffic? As far as I understand, these issues arise when cars go back and forth between lanes all the time, or when cars go slower than the ones behind them without an open lane to overtake them. If you pick a lane and stay in it, you might cause the second issue
- Comment on 2 months ago:
“Pick a lane and stay in it” leads to slow drivers blocking the left lane, no?

Assuming this effect existed, wouldn’t the memory of the water be polluted with all kind of things (as water is recycled all the time)? The specific water molecules you are ingesting probably spent considerable time (considering the age of the earth and all water on it) as saltwater. If longer exposure makes the memory stronger, you should be getting a lethal dose of salt quite easily

Yeah, this seems like a metric specifically chosen s.t. it makes intuitive sense to the average person AND it has a nice physical interpretation. Similar to how EU efficiency labels show power draw in W as kWh per 1000h of use

Real talk though, I wish everything was built s.t. you could disassemble it, understand how it works and repair most issues yourself. For more complex devices, that could mean swapping an entire module for a replacement rather than repairing it, which is something that everyone should be able to do. Selling things that are un-repairable on purpose should be a criminal offense in a world where resources and energy have to be conserved.
