Take another moment to realize how shit Paw Patrol is.
- Not challenging, has clear cut good/bad dynamic. Bluey doesn’t have "bad guys"
- PP is fairly inclusive.
- Almost not emotional depth, everyone is always in a good mood.
- Started off fairly grounded, but then power scaling for no reason.
- Repetitive and boring.
- What the fuck is up with dogs being intelligent enough to do the PP things, but also being subservient to humans? The whole dynamic is so fucked, Bluey doesn’t have humans at all.
I only compare them because the are both dog based kids shows. But PP sucks

Na, being 40 is fine. I’m 45, eat well and get a little exercise. I am healthier than I was in my 20’s, I have more stamina and I think more clearly.

- Comment on This Modular Phone Concept Is Xiaomi’s Plan to Kill the Camera Bump 3 weeks ago:
This will only succeed if they open it up to other developers.
A 10Gb link with power, there are a lot of applications that could work here.
Camera/projector/docking station… These are the first few I came up with, I’m sure others will have great ideas.
But if they try to keep it proprietary, it will go nowhere.

- Comment on Which movies are much darker when you rewatch them as an adult? 1 month ago:
Starship troopers.
I saw it when it came out. I was young and the action was awesome.
Watching at an adult… The fascist themes are so obvious, I wonder how young me missed them.
- Comment on Which movies are much darker when you rewatch them as an adult? 1 month ago:
No it’s the whole movie.
It is the story of an oppressed people, in their desperation they follow a con artist who is only out for himself.
Their uprising and short lived victory, is marked by incompetence and grift.
After being in power for a while, the old regime returns. They kill the leader and ruthlessly crush the now demoralised people.
In the end the old monarchy rules again, the oppressed people are scattered, this culture and way of life vilified, even moreso than in the past.

- Comment on About to turn the car to a flying car 3 months ago:
I work with industrial hydraulics, the forces involved in big gear are truly insane.
Working pressures is around 270bar…on ~1.4m^2 of cylinders. Millions of kg of force.
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 3 months ago:
My partner took an “anonymous” survey at work once.
When the results came out, it categorised the results. Site, m/f/o, role.
Turns out that there was only one female engineer at her site… So everybody knew she was annoyed about some specific things.
- Comment on Electric Cars Could Last Much Longer Than You Think - Rather than having a shorter lifespan than internal combustion engines, EV batteries are lasting way longer than expected 3 months ago:
A 1.8%pa degradation over 10 years would be, 83.39%.
Linearising it to make it “more intuitive” I guess.
But 2%pa degradation gets you very close to the 18% over 10 years figure.
