- Comment on I 🖤 LaTeX 1 day ago:
I’ve seen this floating around a few times but are too tired to invest energy into this specific hype train. What exactly makes it stand apart from latex or markdown (then pandoced into latex)?

I can only read half of that and it looks like a malware link to me.
But sorry, a nickname is written in Japanese script is not a reliable indicator on this platform. By that logic, I might also be Japanese 🍜

50-60 interviews, not interviewees. Might be group interviews (but still bullshit)
- Comment on Genius 2 weeks ago:
Yes, that is a debate. AFAIK (from Japan), the vending machine providers give home owners a monthly rent for putting the machine on their property, but the home owners pay for the electricity costs. There was an article 1-2 years ago about how that model became basically a zero sum game for the home owners, because of rising electricity costs but I don’t remember the details
- Comment on Genius 2 weeks ago:
Agree with the ragebait, but (theoretically) they might interview more than one person at a time. He talks about 50-60 interviews a day, so with that seat layout, we have a max of 8*60=480 interviewees (assuming the interviewer is also sitting). That would be 240 drinks per day.
But it’s going to be quite busy. Let’s say he works 12 hours = 5 interviews/hour = 12 minutes per interview = 1.5 minutes per interviewee. That is not accounting for the time everyone needs to settle in and sit down/get up and out again; the time for him to casually get people to use their very limited time to buy a drink instead of being interviewed somehow (?) Also not accounting for the work involved in inviting and scheduling people, refilling the machine, costs of drinks, office space etc. And the soul draining work of funneling 480 people per day through a stupid fake interview, repeat the same thing every 12 minutes, just to get them to buy a drink instead of doing something useful.
What a nightmare. In this scenario, he is really the person to feel bad for. Imagine a life like that 😅
And apart from that: The more logical setup would be to turn off the air condition in the waiting area and put the vending machine there.

Always a bit edgy when people focus on the pronunciation of Kant, instead of its meaning.

Just ask yourself “What would Andrew Tate do?” and then do the opposite of that

Guess I’m gay. 🤷♂️
Being so direct and manly about this and acknowledging your gayness actually makes you an alpha cis male again

Backe (cheek) can be used both for the cheek in the face and the butt. But I guess you could say Arschbackpfeife? Arschbackpfeifengesicht? I’m not sure, need some inspiration from fellow Germans.
- Comment on Say thanks 3 months ago:
Pretty close, although Backpfeife has nothing to do with the back of your hand (five?), if that was your association. It also kind of fits, though. And what you associate with “shit” is German for “face” :D
Backpfeife would literally translate to “cheek whistle”, because that’s our favorite instrument to play when encountering a couch molester.

“Some bullshit” yeah right you just craved for that avocado toast, didn’t you?
- Comment on Why is a two-party system considered democratic? 3 months ago:
A two-party system is not necessarily worse than a multy-party system. They both have their flaws. Just as one example, party programs in multi-party systems such as in Germany are not worth the paper they are written on, because after the election the parties will go into negotiations and come up with an entirely different program. With two parties, at least you know what you vote for.
This is a great lecture on the topic with much more depth to it:

Let me put this differently:
You’re standing at a lever that can influence the direction of the shrapnel. If you do nothing, 5 people will get hit with bowling ball shrapnel and 1 person with marble shrapnel. If you pull the lever, 5 people will get hit with marble shrapnel and 1 person with bowling ball shrapnel.
What do you do?

Would you rather get hit by bowling ball shrapnel or marble shrapnel?
