  • It's all learned behaviour. If you grew up with F that makes total sense and C sounds ridiculous. If you grew up with C that's totally intuitive for anyone, just as much as F, so using a scale that has no point outside of the weather sounds dumb. Neither system is more intuitive by any means. Both systems ave benefits and downsides.

    Whenever I talk to americans and they use F I need to convert it because I grew up with C and that just makes more sense to me, even if I know the "0-100 F is according to human experience" thing. Like sure, 80F is hot, but how hot is it? Oh 27C that's hot but not extreme.

    Arguing one or the other is superior is not only pointless but also just silly

  • Yuki had been on kmag's arse for 10+ laps without passing. Daniel just closed a 9 second gap to the two. Yuki was never passing. Daniel might've.

    It's easy to say after the fact "bUt hE DidN'T PaSS hiM DiD hE?", but u gotta look from the perspective from the race engineers. Who is most likely to get a pass: the guy who's been trying and failing for 10 laps or the other guy who just closed a 9 second gap and is on a different strategy? Yuki just let his ego cloud his judgement, which is understandable in the heat of the moment but not in a dangerous "revenge" action 15 minutes later. IMO he should get at least a fine for that move after the checkered flag if not a time penalty. What he did was stupid and dangerous

  • Oh no, strangers on the internet know I had sex and there were dog-like noises! That's the exact same as people who know me IRL such as family or coworkers! I shall now sink through the ground in shame!

  • Is there any reason why you didn't just switch the keyboard layout to US if that's what you're used to?

    I switched to US at some point because many if the keys for programming were just so much easier to access. If I have to use a pc for any decent amount of time, I just switch the OS layout to US now regardless of the layout that's printed on the keyboard.

  • Context: I'm european. I know for sure the people at my local coffee shops are being paid a living wage, cause there's laws for that.

    Paying your employees a living wage is included in what I see as "a sustainable business model".

    I know the owner of my local coffee shop personally and while they charge €4 or more depending on the coffee you're getting AND they roast their own coffee, so they cut down on the bean costs significantly while generating some extra profits as well by selling the beans, they still aren't "just raking it in" as you make it seem.

  • A coffee from a coffee shop definitely should be $4 if you want them to ethically source good coffee and have a sustainable business model.

    There's still cheap, shitty coffee that's built on modern slavery there's always like mcdo. SB is the same quality ingredients but with knowing how to steam milk + syrups

    1. several languages that are still in use have eager evaluation.
    2. I'm a dumb programmer. The more I need to keep implicit behaviour in mind, the higher the probability I'm writing bugs. Short circuit evaluation is an optimization technique IMO and shouldn't be relied upon for control flow.
    3. The aggressive tone you're using is completely unnecessary and immature, so I'll refrain from responding any further. Have a nice day.
    1. That's behaviour that's just part of language design. If you rely on it you should probably check how the language you're using handles it.
    2. relying on that behaviour sounds a lot like "clever" (read unnecessarily unreadable) code
