I mean that and a b25 weighs like 40k lbs and a 767 weighs like 400k lbs, and flies twice as fast.

People also don't realize that too much power is just as bad as too little, worse in fact. There's always useful power sinks: pumped hydro, batteries, thermal storage, but these are not infinite.

Cranberries don't grow on the water, the fields are just flooded at harvest time because the berries float, which makes it an easy method to gather them.

It keeps happening because people are human and make mistakes.

Sure, no one is saying that. The point is that it doesn't send anything other than the stuff after the keywords back to company servers.

There's also the matter of there being literally hundreds of security and privacy researchers who would love nothing more than to catch Amazon doing this, and no one has in any major way.

There's also been tons of academic studies on it that back it up.

I was going to say, anybody with a full size spare in a sedan like that probably also owns an angle grinder for later

My personal code readability axe to grind is nested complex ternary operators.

Every now and then I'll see something like this

return (checkFormatType(currentObject.type==TYPES.static||currentObject type==TYPES.dynamic?TYPES.mutable:TYPES.immutable)?create format("MUTABLE"):getFormat(currentObject));

And I have a fucking conniption because just move that shit into a variable before the return. I get it when sometimes you just need to resolve something inline, but a huge amount of the time that ternary can be extracted to a variable before the ternary, or just rewrite the function to take multiple types and resolve it in the function.

You can also feed them less, and then put that kibble in the treats as part of dinner time. So they'd get half their dinner from the bowl and half from a puzzle toy, or whatever.

You act like they aren't capable of completely contradictory conspiracies like these

Talking to a friend you haven't seen in a while about what's new in your life is basically the opposite of "small talk'. I can empathize with those kind of social interactions being hard for some people, but it's a social skill that's worth either practicing or finding alternative paths to accomplish if you want to make and keep friends.
