Can you write another guide next for how to watch a movie with someone who won’t stop asking questions the entire time through the movie? I would like some advice on that.

Doesn’t seem very different, looks like they have the same ideas anyway. In any case, it has the same problem of being a government infographic that doesn’t reflect current science.

This infographic has carbs and fat the opposite of current science.

America wouldn’t have obesity problems if we had left dietary guidelines to actual science and stopped trusting in government infographics.

Damore has been taken so ridiculously out of context and lied about that we should probably just stop talking about him. I feel bad for the guy. Most of what people say about him is projecting their own nonsense onto other people’s rants about things he didn’t say.

Having said that, this sexist gatekeeping is idiotic.…

Which hopefully means you’ll be able to pick them up used and super cheap in a few years

I am a male engineer who works with plenty of other male engineers and a few female engineers. Lots of people do this, it’s not exclusively something men do to women. Actually I mostly get it from sales people, they have the sort of ego and drive that has them talking over people a lot. It’s not particularly sexist,…

The last point made here is key. Insistence of certainty is a pretty big barrier for people, and even people who believe in climate change should be careful about buying into sensational claims. The article does a good job of pointing out what we don’t know, which is good. This was a big barrier for me, people…

You’re all wrong. I’m from Minneapolis, the cheese goes inside the burger patty.

10 years ago my church had a toy drive around Christmas time, people donated stuff or whatever. This was a small rural church, had maybe 100 people. Somebody donated an unopened NES with Mario Bros and Duck Hunt. I recognized that this was actually worth something, but I couldn’t take it. If I had known who was…

Where do DMs show up in the desktop browser? I’ve never been able to figure that one out. What about the stories?

Trying to talk me into drinking splinters.

The name of this blog is cultural appropriation from the Ninja Turtles.

He looks like a comic book drawing of Joseph Gordon-Levitt

My mom made up a thing when I was in high school, nothing too crazy but it was a sort of chicken/spinach/olive/tomato/whatever vegetables kind of thing with penne. Everybody loved it, so she kept making it and it needed a name. We ended up calling it Kenny, and it’s known by that name to this day.

Super interesting. I’ve wondered about this kind of stuff before, whenever anybody makes a claim about some chunk of land belonging to somebody. War and conquest is a part of human history, lots of people groups have controlled any given piece of land. In a lot of cases, we don’t have much information about groups…

I was thinking recently that it would be cool to donate my body to be mummified. I saw a thing about how different kinds of mummies are made, and I thought it would be educational to see this process done on an actual body.

“I’ve found the problem with America, and it’s the Republicans!!!”

This is interesting, makes me think of the Age of Empires 2 expansion that added some African kingdoms to the mix a few years ago, they took some creative liberties but it’s at the very least an interesting thought experiment in tastefully filling in the holes in our knowledge and creatively expanding on what material…

Slow day at the office basement, eh?
