The example with gravity is interesting indeed. We have only acceleration sensors behind our ears, but our body notices the pressure of the body tissue pressing down towards the gravity. And obviously, we also feel gravity when moving.
However, the difference to magnetism is, that we frankly don't have any contact with magnets during our evolution - except for the earth's magnetic field.
Even if we are able to sense it, it's definitely far from being able to reliably feel it like we do for gravity.
Fair point, but then, most people don't have this.
And even if you do it, you need to get some experience for your brain to develop a model of what to expect in certain situations. For instance, your brain will need some time to get used to the fact, that putting our hand on a fridge will give the brain new sensory stimuli because of the magnets on the fridge.
This intuitive understanding of light and sound is just that - brain neurons being used to what to expect. And even with an implant you would need to train that.
Though I'm definitely curious to experience once how that would feel like 😄
Fair point, I didn't know about that. But even then, most of us don't feel like we can feel it - and in the modern city living spaces it gets even less important to train such a sense.
I have to disagree there regardless of how one interprets "know".
If you mean "know intuitively", then we don't, precisely because we have no sensors for it and hence no experience with it. We intuitively know light, because we sense it and know what to expect in a closed room with no light source.
If you mean it scientifically, then light and magnets are extensively studied and far from "know nothing about it". Our knowledge of light, magnetism and sound is very good on all levels.
Indeed. While many years ago I was playing almost only League of Legends with friends every evening after school, now I'm more enjoying the quality in note/totk, Celeste, and co. I also feel like online games aren't anymore the places where you could get to know strangers and make online friends. LoL has gotten too toxic and competitive. And Minecraft servers have a 5oo young demographic for me
Even then. If steam actually locks out out of your games, then I bet hacked will quickly put more effort to sidestep the drm and make that more easily accessible.
Fair point, but I still prefer the donation link to also be available outside of the app. I didn't think about looking in the app - even though I had literally opened it right in front of me 😅

Yeah, but stereotypically speaking. If the diagram says physicists, engineers and mathaticians are all single, then programmer better also be.
