I could probably give a nice rant for each distro I've tried and why they're all horrible. Ubuntu is probably my favorite, but IMO there is no "good" when it comes to OS's.
Every single UI and every single complete set of defaults has a fair number of things wrong with it. Instability, insecurity, lagging feature set, slow ui, ugly and non-intuitive ui, bad documentation, inconsistency everywhere. There is none that are good.
Trying to read that is like trying to learn an entire new language by reading a sentence in it. Way too many words to already understand what it's even defining (commutative ring, irreducible polynomials, UFDs, principle ideal, nozero prime ideal... and I'm not following why p divides ab in R... or even exactly what that means).
Searching youtube kahn academy and numberphile, but not turning up anything. exactly how high level is this?
I know I'm wrong, but it feels like tis' in the definition of what a prime factor is, a prime factor being the fundamental indivisible integers.
If so, considering that multiples of the same numbers are always the same, and all numbers that are prime are indivisible, the only way the conjecture could be false is if there were indivisible numbers that aren't prime. Definition inconsistency.
I feel like we're just no longer the shiny hotness. I think a lot of people WANT to be self-made self-taught semi-low-level language programmers.
I listen to a lot of podcasts. My god, I just want a decent show that is NOT focused on web development. Is that so much to ask? Oh, and not ios/windows focused, 'cus then literally everything you talk about no longer applies to me. And not "a new language every week" because my god, you can't deep-delve into anything like that. Hell, not even javascript can be covered in an hour.
What exercise is better for improving my cooking skill? What about the exercise that's best for my alcohol consumption?
If you want to improve your brain, it's important to be healthy, I get that. But come on, the point of exercising is to be healthy. Beyond that no exercise is going to improve your brain directly if it doesn't actually use your brain. This whole movement makes me very skeptical.
you never cut yourself? Parts of my neck were nicked repeatedly in the first month. Most interesting part was that not once did it actually hurt, it was just that sharp.
Still though, the blade price alone makes the effort worth it. Plus I had a few solid months of a feeling of superior manliness, and the glory of using a shaving brush has yet to wear off in the last year and a half. How did I go years without using a shaving brush?
My kids aren't that old yet, but "interesting" is a still a good description. The world through the eyes of a 3 year old is pretty comical.
Dinosaurs? the best thing in the world. We don't have enough toys, books, and videos even available to us to satisfy. Toy tools? he's "fixing" everything. Usually with brute force. Toy pliers broke, so toy saw was tried and found to be a far superior tool for everything. It is a better hammer, better wedge, better saw, and better chisel than any other piece of plastic in his arsenal.
Then again, the level of intelligence is hilariously lacking. I mean, he's 3, what do you expect? Either way, you have to choose your activities carefully so that you can watch them without becoming a sleep-deprived under-stimulated zombie.
My first thought is that what you're worth is not what you want, and not according to your contribution to productivity. You're paid according to what you'll accept.
So you gotta wonder, if there starts to be a slight shortage of jobs, what do the different actors do? The middle manager and the employee... Well, as an employee you have less and less say, and you probably want to try to prove yourself and work harder or longer. Motivation is toward equal or higher hours than normal.
And the employer just wants to get the job done. They don't want to sift through MORE employees to do it. That means more training, more managing, and generally more hassle. Motivation is toward giving employees equal or more hours than normal.
In Star Trek Enterprise a body from the future had DNA fragments from something like a dozen different "species". Vulcans, Klingon, and Human were all included.
The thing about life boundries though in biology is that the more you know the less it makes sense. All bacteria are technically a single species, as are Archaea. Virus's aren't considered alive at all, though they do evolve. Then there are asexual creatures entirely. I vaguely recall a lizard that has no real genetic diversity because they are all females that reproduce without any sex, and there are no males. So... they're not a species either, but are still reproducing. Biology is screwy.
I would assume it all depends on who in the government touched it. "The government" is a lot of people that don't share much expertise. Some of them have shown a lot of expertise however, and a will to use it maliciously.
They're better than average, but you have to be willing to question what they say. I know too many people who just trusted the doctor and then had the doctor make some minor slip-up that the patient would have caught. Except "minor" means "well, I guess you're this way for life now. sorry".
I had a coworker tell me that they had the cold and that they're taking an antibiotic for it. We went on a back and forth, with me repeatedly telling him that antibiotics would make him worse, a cold is viral. I think he badgered the doctor into giving him some. What was funny is that everyone in the shop just about had that cold, and he had it longer than most people. But those antibiotics were really helping.
