The book “Quantum field theory for the gifted amateur” is really good. It’s helped me understand quantum fields a lot better, and I work with quantum mechanics every day.

Calling HITMAN a crappy live service thing is hardly fair. True, the always online part feels really unnecessary, but beyond that it is a stellar single player game with the best Hitman gameplay of the last two decades, a large selection of excellent maps with variants and extra missions, as well as a really impressive rogue-like mode added later for free.
The elusive targets and seasonal content can be completely ignored, and the game would still be a major milestone in modern singleplayer games.
I don’t think we are - the previous comment is talking about the total genocide of all domesticated animals, which seems beyond sheep under solar panels.
Sounds nice. Possibly while not killing them or milking them, while also trying to breed them back to a more naturally viable state?
Surely there exists a space between us breeding, mass murdering and torturing domestic animals with cruel factory farming on the one hand, and wiping them off the face of the earth on the other.
Wouldn’t you say that both extremes constitute disastrous consequences for huge parts of the entire world’s biosphere?
True, but I, at least, had to do a double take. I’m not a native speaker, but it’s much the same in my native language.
Being understandable feels like the minimum ask of language, isn’t it better to also make it easy to read to a broad audience?
Not saying you have to be a dick about it, just that prescriptivism has its benefits.
Unified grammar and spelling increases the speed, accuracy and universality of communication
What a horrifying disaster.
How am I supposed to estimate the pH value of a given wetland area without specialised equipment?
Possibly. I can’t come up with any major results that wasn’t either logic, engineering or tradition. But it’s an interesting question. What might count as science before then?
Hardcore soft poooorn
They also said it about potatoes, fresh water, indoor plants, cotton clothes, thinking about the moon and wooden stools.
Canada is not a Euro-zone country.
And also, Ireland is south of Denmark.
Not sure I understand, who is being called names?
And sure, laws like these are always a compromise, with no objectively true answer.
The point of having an age of consent (in this case 16 in the UK) is not popularity, and not just parental awareness or protection from people in positions of power.
It’s a decision by society that kids below this age are incapable of grasping the full consequences of their consent.
Of course the limit is going to be somewhat arbitrary, and you can definitely argue that age of consent laws are bad without being a creep, but you’d have to argue that a 15 year old understands the ramifications of consent.
Anno 1800, love working with the supply chain.
The UN is more a place to talk with your enemies than with your friends, and getting the chance to sit at a table with people you disagree with rather than fighting each other is great.
If there are any Palestinians left to disagree with.
From its own cover,
This might sound pretty casual, but it gets into all the math of it, with an aim at practical use.
