  1. Sentences that probably nobody in history has uttered before: 'I wanted my outfit to match my menstruation.'
    1000
  2. The 'green text' / 'blue text' thing is the weirdest, American-est thing in the universe that the rest of us will never understand.
    1000
  3. She's pretty good at saying 'Good afternoon!'
    589
  4. Um, Microsoft makes a crapload of money off of Linux because Azure.
    518
  5. 'I am abusing this monstrously.' == always the sign of well-written code.
    229
  6. Leaded avgas is basically the Internet Explorer of fuels ... At some point, we, collectively, have to drop support for obsolete tech.
    165
  7. What if everybody just stfu about politics ... and got back to arguing about wholesome topics like Emacs vs Vim? 🤦‍♀
    119
  8. Silicone. Not silicon.
    83
  9. I've totally seen that on smaller prop planes -- both weighing people and asking people to move to rebalance.
    82
  10. I mean, we'd be concerned for his health if he didn't go full Q&F mode.
    81
  11. It doesn't matter what phone you use ... but it says something deeply sad and insecure about you if you judge people for which phones they use.
    64
  12. Looks like we finally found the guy who WOULDN'T download a car ...
    61
  13. What's quite funny is that the only political positions that are self-consistent / well-reasoned are considered 'fringe' and 'radical'.
    60
  14. Democracy: Proving for thousands of years that what's popular is usually not what's a good idea.
    56
  15. This is the way. Be warned: After you learn Vim, it will be truly painful to watch non-Vimmers flailing around trying to move their cursor by pressing the arrow key 47 times to do what `f(` would have done ... or ... worse ... using the mouse.
    54
  16.  @kazansky22  Funny how laws of physics seem to stay the same, eh?
    49
  17. I've been meaning to learn Ed -- just for history -- and now I'll do it in Bram's memory by way of understanding Vi and Vim better. We've lost a man who's fairly-deeply reprogrammed the brains of many of us ... and made us unable + unwilling to use all the other (obviously-inferior) text editors.
    47
  18. Every aviation docco becomes 12% better the moment that 'Kelly' Johnson is mentioned.
    40
  19. Sinking the poacher's boat would be far easier than boarding it. Also, it eliminates recidivism ... and lots of paperwork ... and provides food for the sharks and wrecks for artificial reefs.
    40
  20. All advertising is shady.
    36
  21. lol, imagine thinking that things are 'free' just because you didn't pay monetarily ...
    34
  22. You chose meditation as an example!? Literally anyone can meditate for 15 minutes a day ... whether they ought to ... 🤷‍♀
    28
  23.  @VBirchwood  Well, this is why you're here! It has now been said :} Made me smile.
    27
  24. Number of people surprised by this guy's death: Precisely zero.
    27
  25. The point is that people are looking ... otherwise this wouldn't have been found.
    26
  26. It's more like infantilising ... It looks like it was designed for small children.
    24
  27.  @krkngd-wn6xj  'The reason that the rich were so rich ... was because they managed to spend less money.'
    21
  28. I think we can all agree: Lack of unlimited pizza after promising unlimited pizza is BULLSHIT.
    21
  29.  @TheAlchemist1089  Missile warning tech ... which would have taken you like 4 seconds to work out if you knew how to Internet.
    21
  30. Kevin is a treasure ... I can never quite tell if he's in on the joke.
    21
  31.  @condimentking3395  Gaming headphones are basically all crap. People who buy them tend to want RGB and wireless ... which are 'features' that no self-respecting audiophile (or other people optimising for quality) would care about ... We probably have very different understandings of what an 'expensive' pair of headphones or mic is, but if you buy quality it'll last for decades ... Nobody has problems with their LCD-4 or U87.
    20
  32.  @escapetherace1943  This guy would shit bricks if he knew that WSL existed, eh?
    19
  33. I have a large collection, but it used to be much larger ... Why not buy everything you might like? Helps to let you understand what you like and why ... and then you can sell off -- or, if you're in the position where you can / are willing to help fund the magic and madness for some newer people, give away -- the other ones.
    18
  34. Literally this. Hertz was someone's name (Heinrich's, to be precise.) ... there is no 'hert'.
    18
  35. Agreed ... There's some folklore 'because poaching' claim, but afaik, nobody's able to find any discussion / mention in the legislative blah blah leading up to the NFA.
    17
  36. Those buildings ... always doin' things ...
    17
  37. Bigbrainmove
    17
  38.  @Bobspineable  I mean ... Who's to say how an unregistered rickety wooden boat illegally in Aussie waters ended up at the bottom 🤷‍♀️
    17
  39. On Debian-based systems, looks like `sh` symlinks to `dash` (Tested on Debian, Mint, and Raspbian.).
    17
  40. I've used Ventoy for a couple of years; it's great software. Had zero interactions with its community + mostly just want the easiest tool to boot all the distros.🤷‍♀
    16
  41. Nothing screaming 'insecurity' like the Zuck ...
    15
  42. Death always takes a lifetime.
    15
  43. Man hadn't even finished his cheesy toast!
    13
  44. 'What could have saved money in the long term was too expensive to develop.' ... This, kiddies, is why we cannot have nice things.
    13
  45. Further evidence that it doesn't matter who gets there first ... just who markets the accomplishment better. (c.f., Rolex)
    13
  46.  @steven7936  '3 years' ... Guess that makes you the expert lololol
    12
  47. My dragon is generally content to snooze standing when in unfamiliar places, as well.
    12
  48. So much winning -- you may even get tired of winning.
    12
  49. The magic of buying two of them is still there, even when nobody notices or mentions it!
    11
  50. That 'dude fucking an alligator' line is very probably the finest 3 seconds of cinema ever.
    11
  51. ArchieLuxury is a method actor playing Paul Pluta ... or maybe Paul Pluta is a method actor playing ArchieLuxury? Or, maybe it's just a group of carpet beetles playing both.
    11
  52. He's also our friend. #FriendMikeBrady
    11
  53.  @yocoachfred9932  Exactly... If you're not here for the quirks, you should have watched a different vid on a diff channel?!?
    11
  54. What a waste of space. Just keep digital copies.
    11
  55. Is 'catch-23' the secret sequel to 'Catch-22'?
    10
  56. F that go for TempleOS.
    10
  57. Except that you don't actually lose anything, it takes 2 minutes to ring up your card provider to report the card / have it deactivated, and they'll just overnight you a replacement.
    10
  58. Can confirm: `fzf` is awesome and life-changing.
    10
  59.  @WilliamAshleyOnline  I'd like the price to increase and the tipping to be eliminated. Other people might want to pay less and waste their time. The assumption that there's only one efficient solution is faulty.
    10
  60. Imagine bitching about ads rather than just skipping them 🤦‍♀️
    10
  61.  @theregnarute  Or IBM ... pretty much been decades since they turned out anything that could genuinely be called 'innovative'.
    10
  62.  @kenbrown2808  That's funny; wondering if you're a generation-ish older than I am? 'Was this designed by Microsoft?' is my standard goto for this.
    10
  63. Yup. They're invoking Linux code -- not GNU or GNU/Linux code -- by doing, ultimately, a `syscall` or `svc` opcode which transfers control to the kernel and runs whatever kernel sys-call code `rax` or `r7` specifies ... and yes, probably via C wrappers from `sys/syscall.h`.
    10
  64. You will not regret it. But, it will become increasingly horrifying to watch non-Vim people faffing around trying to edit text.
    10
  65. These are hilarious / wonderful ... I probably wouldn't wear one, but I'm glad that they're out there.
    9
  66.  @mundanepants  100% ... Designer stuff (e.g., the things with enormous (I'd say tacky🤷‍♀️) 'signalling' labels) appeals to, well, a certain kind of person who wants to be perceived a way that they think reads as 'definitely not poor'... but the clothes are oftentimes garbage... old money tend to buy quality with no names visible + wear the stuff for generations because it's well-made and (closer to) timeless.
    9
  67. It's way better than Ubuntu. Packages actually get updated. You don't need to f around with PPA nonsense to install packages. And it doesn't install heaps of bloatware. Also, who tf cares about what's 'cool'? How passé.
    9
  68. Holy shit! What sort of monster plugs a heater into their UPS!?
    9
  69.  @watchmakerful  There are dozens of distinct British accents.
    8
  70.  @anlumo1  He did it based on pre-existing published research papers (probably Fuchs et. al, 1980).
    8
  71. Anyone who uses the word 'content' unironically is peak cringe.
    8
  72. Sucks when your conspiracy theory is true ... but you don't have quite enough evidence for it.
    8
  73. Process is about balance. Leave the engineers / researchers 100% in charge, and they'll bankrupt the company -- sadly, somebody actually has to sell product in order to keep funding the R&D ... Leave it to accountants / professional managers, and they'll kneecap R&D to pad their bonuses -- might serve short-term interests, but massively increases long-term risk.
    8
  74.  @Luigi_Vaz  Oof, my first time was a disaster. Literal `sudo rm -rf *` when I didn't realise I was in `/` ... Good times.
    8
  75. 100% Also, there's zero reason to 'choose', just use all the editors, nerd snipe everyone and get them arguing about editor superiority, and get back to doing useful things.
    8
  76. Skill issue.
    8
  77. 1) Octopus are generally solitary creatures; they don't care about family members' being 'stolen'. 2) In what universe is there any connection whatsoever between defeating an engineered obstacle course and being able to feed oneself in the wild? Just because a human solves an escape room, that doesn't mean that they can forage berries or hunt deer.
    8
  78. 'Free' things aren't free. The piper will be paid ... it's just a question of how you're paying him.
    8
  79. Artists tend to not be rich enough to be worth targeting with tech.
    8
  80. Rather like your spell checker?
    8
  81. The sad bit is that it's shocking/unusual when people actually collaborate globally to solve a problem.
    8
  82. If you've ever seen paintings of old timey kingly types you've seen many many of their pelts.
    8
  83. Your hair is ridiculously pretty ... I remember hearing you talk about using eggs on it in another video, but I'd love to hear everything that you do for it: What sort of brushes and combs and whatnot! Oh, also, how do you keep it at night, since you have a LOT of hair.
    8
  84. I mean you'll see the full addresses in wherever your browser shows the sequence of network requests, though.
    7
  85. This. Also, we must see whether she AND the golf clubs can fit ...
    7
  86. Having a single, centralised package manager (e.g., pacman ... I use Arch btw) is what makes Linux so much easier than Windows or Mac ... It means that setting up a system from nothing can be entirely scripted, which makes doing experiments that might/will f up everything lower cost. Computer configurations should be livestock, not pets.
    7
  87. Poor kid. They promised pizza and it was all lies. I would have gone and done 20 lines of coke just to spite them.
    7
  88. I'm really glad you're doing this series ... I'm not very far in the journey yet, but I'm actively working to move my house to fully-electric ... with the exception of a gas hob in the kitchen. I care more about my cooking experience than reducing dino-burning in that one case.
    7
  89. Um, you're saying reasonable things. That's not allowed in YT comments.
    7
  90. Um, modern cockpits are almost entirely MFDs -- screens.
    7
  91. Literally this.
    7
  92.  @Cure4theCold  What $200 Seiko has a sapphire crystal?
    6
  93. They're just fun -- a bunch of them are impossible to tell what time it is, but who cares!? They're just hilarious and adorable.
    6
  94. However, it's an initialism, not an acronym.
    6
  95. ​ @NutchapolSal Literally false. Editing PDF is trivial.
    6
  96.  @Thiesi  I've always yolo'ed it ... but that's a rather good idea!
    6
  97. Nothing says 'nouveau riche poor taste' like RM.
    6
  98. To be fair, he cut EVERYONE off.
    6
  99. Yawn. I can't even imagine caring about social media. It's consummately boring.
    6
  100. Gotta love how you care about workers' rights ... right up until it involves delays in getting wtf your package is.
    6
  101. Old timey people said the same thing about lift/elevator operators ... The feeling of safety is an illusion that's fairly malleable, especially with generational changes in how humans interact with/trust technologies.
    6
  102. It's the amount of information/entropy in the password that matters, not the length. `aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa` isn't any more secure that `aaaa`.
    6
  103. Holy shit she's beautiful 👩‍❤‍👩
    6
  104. Too bad they didn't just learn to code.
    6
  105. Extremely surprised that people were still using ADA that late in an educational context -- would have suspected that 'trendy' and 'new' Java would have been on offer.
    6
  106.  @JUSTK1DD1N  Isn't it amazing how some not-entirely-legal things are effectively undetectable. F copyright.
    6
  107. It's so sad that there aren't historical documents explaining 'how to underwear' ... or maybe I'm just a weirdo for finding this stuff and bathing and toilet habits fascinating ...
    5
  108. I didn't even realise that they make automatics🙈
    5
  109. And, 40 years later, symbolic AI is dead.
    5
  110. The difference between 'O(1)' and 'doing precisely a single operation' seems to be a subtlety that evades people ... I can't say how many dev candidates I've interviewed who've said that their 2-pass algorithm had 'O(2n)' perf -- that's not a thing, and it suggests that you've completely misunderstood asymptotes / limits.
    5
  111. As a gecko, I can confirm that we regularly refer to hairless apes as 'that funny-looking invasive species'.
    5
  112.  @GrimmRiot  Love that the person complaining about bots has the most-sus username ever, eh?
    5
  113.  @GrimmRiot  Jumping to conclusions: The proud tradition that keeps discussions online from approaching productivity/civility ;P
    5
  114. Just to make a pedantic distinction: Y'all are talking about terminal emulators 😉
    5
  115. Um, Android has over 69% market share (NICE!); iOS is under 30%.
    5
  116. Yet, you encourage more such videos by watching and commenting...
    5
  117.  @boudicajones6524  I mean, buy assorted watches that are within your means ... I'm not saying 'go buy a complete set of Pateks' or something.
    5
  118. 18:40 one of the only times on CC that the GUEST said 'I'm going to cut things short here' instead of Stewart.
    5
  119. Oof, I hope I never get those Ubuntu side effects: I don't want my system plagued by ancient packages that approx never get updated!
    5
  120. What are you disagreeing with? You seem to be agreeing that there's an utter lack of consistency in flags for GNU tooling.
    5
  121. #FriendMikeBrady
    5
  122.  @sahhull  Internet without adblock is hopeless. I've basically gone Boomer and watch everything in a browser because I can control that whereas with apps I can only block some DNS reqs.
    5
  123. Children are boring. Parents become boring. They want all of us to become parents so that they're relatively less boring.
    5
  124. Nouveaux riches -- who, almost by definition, are significantly more visible than wealthy people -- give a distorted impression of what 'the rich' are like.
    5
  125. Following up: I've learnt some very basic Ed ... It's a bit tedious, but it doesn't feel totally unfamiliar -- it is definitely like meeting Vim's slightly cranky but charming grandpa. I will be learning / playing with Ed more!
    5
  126. Doug's the type of guy who uses the word 'rimming' when talking about some derpy retro Japanese car named for spring.
    5
  127. 'don't really explore / tinker unless I HAVE to' fits my priors of RPM-Linux users
    5
  128. DEFINITELY wouldn't want to even consider a watch that a woman might also wear because, um, like, MANLY STUFF. Geckos have no such insecurities and just wear whatever watches we like. But, my wrists are like 4mm🤷‍♀
    5
  129. Um, the rest of the world exists. Service at non-US restaurants is no worse than in the US ... and I'd say actually better. The false friendliness and obsequiousness of tipped servers is unpleasant.
    5
  130. Fascinating what the bartender was saying: I always feel as the customer like tipping is holding me hostage -- pay (beyond the price that we agreed upon) ... or you'd better never come back here.
    5
  131. This is a very procedural / mutable perspective ... Writing Haskell or Coq or Agda doesn't feel like any of that.
    5
  132. What the heck is a Java web dev? Do any browsers even support applets any more!? (i.e., I thought Java was only used for back-end work these days ...) (EDIT: To clarify, I mean this as a good-faith question -- sincerely curious what you mean by that!)
    5
  133. A really useful thing to do with `sed` is something like `/{pattern}/ s/{pattern}/{template}/g` which restricts the replacement to lines matching the first pattern ... In Ed/Vi/Vim this would be `g/{pattern}/s/{pattern}/{template}/g`.
    5
  134. Absolutely not.
    5
  135. Congrats on your new life as Derk! ;P
    5
  136.  @smoteytothemax  And, you replied with (inaccurate) claims about Emacs ... why, then?
    4
  137. My left and right ears enjoyed taking turns learning about push technology in the '90s.
    4
  138. It's an awesome win for free/open source ... To be fair, though, it doesn't really compete directly with any Adobe product; it's more in the same space as Autodesk's stuff (3ds and Maya).
    4
  139.  @Default78334  I would love to pay for cabin bags on legacy carriers to avoid boarding delays due to the inexperienced-traveller dipshits who try to lug battleship-sized bags aboard flights.
    4
  140. If only the Shuttle could have been lifted onto the pad by snatchblocks, eh?
    4
  141. lolwut? I just re-installed an Arch box yesterday; took about 5min to install and half hour to install packages and configure ... I suspect you're trying to do it through clicky-draggy GUI crap rather than with config files which are transferable and can be versioned.
    4
  142. It's almost as funny as people using Microsoft crapware in the first place.
    4
  143. Except that Arch already did that with archinstall!? No first timer ought to do all the crap he did in this vid manually.
    4
  144. You clearly experience a very different YouTube to what I see ... maybe stop watching garbage videos and they won't be recommended to you.
    4
  145. Who's the idiot: The one who reads Wikipedia ... or the one who watches and comments on it?
    4
  146. No, it's just a cost of doing business on the balance sheet.
    4
  147. Yet, Windows 11 has like 600 CVEs.
    4
  148.  @pianofinger  World is bigger than murica. Reference-class error.
    4
  149.  @danielwalicke6635  Nice pars-pro-toto fallacy, there.
    4
  150. By what metric is that better than using leading zeros? Or, why the aversion to leading zeros? (Also, why not just use GUIDs? Fixed size, convey identity but no other information, never going to run out.)
    4
  151. Agree. With more-classic lugs, I'd buy one and put it on a leather strap.
    4
  152. Wait, so for $150k I can get a full-sized T-Rex cast!? Might be time to re-arrange the living room!
    4
  153. Doug's literally the type of guy to make a video complaining that cars don't suck as much as they used to and therefore supercars aren't as 'special' by comparison.
    4
  154. Things that are sus include: '3 is my favourite number for Christian reasons'.
    4
  155. The algorithm is listening!!!!!
    4
  156. Also, governments can decide to use legal shenanigans to nullify / bypass privacy policies.
    4
  157. Stealing the telly from the rich neighbour is just about right. Apple simply productises ideas in a particular, normie-sexy way within a closed ecosystem ... but almost seems to believe its own marketing lies -- that it's innovating. I wish we could have lived in a world where Apple cleaved more towards Woz's vision.
    4
  158. ffs, all this trans sport crap is so tedious -- just stop segregating sport by sex ... and do it by skill level instead
    4
  159. If you get rid of the humans, all these problems go away. 🤷‍♀️🦎
    4
  160. Church tax is a great idea -- just like taxing cigarettes, it helps disincentivise doing something harmful ... a 'sin tax', you might say ...
    4
  161.  @aladdin8623  Bless your heart.
    4
  162. lazy girl job lol
    4
  163. That's awesome! Learn about English and Linux at the same time!
    4
  164. There's been all sorts of crap like this; I know that Forgotten Weapons had probs when showing historically-accurate German flags from a period that YT has deemed ... too historic to see or some nonsense.
    4
  165. I mean, both are completely legit things to do. I use Arch, BTW🤷‍♀️🐧♥️
    4
  166. Holy shit: Skype still exists?!
    4
  167. Mind blown ... Everything about him is John Ralphio ... Just slightly derpier ...
    4
  168.  @kenbrown2808  Ah, didn't mean that in an ageist way ... Just ... successful companies always seem to turn this way in their terminal phase ... Apple, e.g., hasn't done anything other than incremental improvements recently (with the possibly exception of those goofy VR glasses).
    4
  169. Yeah, it really sucks when things get better, doesn't it ...
    4
  170. What function do you think that apostrophes serve? Like, what were you thinking when you put a random (and incorrect) one in the middle of 'wants'? Sincerely curious. (Also, what's your first language?)
    4
  171. 1:31 so like how long had Stewart and Gary been awkwardly sat together silently in the dark before we joined them!???
    4
  172. It's truly amazing that anybody thinks that deficit spending is either sustainable or a good idea.
    4
  173. I want the best products ... I couldn't care less whether they're made by hands or robots.
    4
  174. ​ @VBirchwood  Yes, very helpful; appreciate your taking the time to write all of that <3 Do you brush your hair in between washings with a dry brush (boar-bristle or something similar)? I've never considered wearing a cap to bed, but that may be the solution to 'oof, just woke up with a mouthful of hair ... again', so I may have to try.
    4
  175. Not at good restaurants.
    3
  176.  @RiPStF  Pretty much ... And we have a tendency to install Vim keys for everything (readline, Vimium ff, etc.) ...
    3
  177.  @smoteytothemax  Hard disagree -- they're clunkier (since Emacs isn't modal) and they're far less compositional (e.g., yank the next 5 words, paste a line 4 times, select up to and including the next 'f').
    3
  178.  @smoteytothemax  Wow, great counter-argument. Also: I'm not a 'guy'.
    3
  179.  @smoteytothemax  Cheers for contributing absolutely nothing of value.
    3
  180. 'Kindly' lol ... krtfm

  181. This is almost as exciting as when TSA post photos of pink vaguely-grenade-shaped coffee mugs that they've confiscated!
    3
  182. I'm, ship your film to/from your destination? This isn't rocket science. I'm a weirdo in different ways, but you can't expect normie-optimised systems to care about you 🤷‍♀️
    3
  183.  @TheGreatWasian_  I mean, you're not wrong ... I generally think of it like this: For some people, saying derpy insults to complete strangers is the most significant/powerful they'll feel all day/week/year/life.🤷‍♀
    3
  184. Then you are not my friend. #FriendMikeBradyForever
    3
  185.  @RiPStF Ha! Just saw that you'd said roughly the same ... Guess amphibians and reptiles think similarly ;P
    3
  186. Why would anyone spend anything CLOSE to 50% of their salary on a car? It's a depreciating asset that doesn't actually deliver that much value.
    3
  187. Are you writing from the 1980s or do you just not know how to use a search engine?
    3
  188. Ah, the weird 'murican misunderstanding of what the word 'pissed' means🤦‍♀🤦‍♀🤦‍♀
    3

  190. Um, this was known about last week.

  191. Well, I think it's a matter of either: 1) Minimising the number of OS re-installs -- to reduce aggregate annoyance of the whole process -- or 2) dramatically INCREASING the number of re-installs -- in which case you'd get annoyed enough to automate / script up rolling out your installation.

  192. It's better ta have features that you don't need than to need features that you don't have. You might like Ed if you want an even-more-minimal editor.

  194.  @terrydaktyllus1320  Yep! And, as someone who previously had a YT channel, I'll just say: It's annoying af when entitled, whinging KeyboardKarens pop into the comments to speak to the manager about how someone else's channel 'should' be run.

  202. I wear literally the same thing every day -- clean copies, of course -- reduces need to have clothes washed, eliminates need to think about what to wear. 10/10 would recommend.

  204.  @mahmoudghoneim8004  Haha, well, the mistake is: Thinking of watches as an 'investment' ... They're decidedly a liability ... but a terribly amusing one. And if the value you assign that amusement ceases to be greater than the ongoing costs (insurance, service, etc.), then it's time to divest.

  206. I find this attitude confusing: Modulo what's legal where, the whole world is one market. If Citizen don't sell a watch where you are, why not just order it from a seller in another country? (Sincere question.)

  226. Every aspect of using AirBnb (as a 'guest', at least) is just an enormous pain in the backside: Do the owners have creepy cameras in the house? Where the hell is extra toilet paper? What are the logistics of getting/returning the keys? It's got all the problems of being at home and none of the benefits ... and all of the problems of being at a hotel and none of the benefits.

  227.  @krozareq  Oh, that's so neat! That's a bit of a change to the mental model for editing -- essentially, it's a sort of virtual memory scheme ... except that the human is manually handling paging regions in/out. I've only done some extremely basic line-level sed'ing, but I anticipate that it (and grep) will make more sense once I learn some ed. I use Dvorak -- which I learnt before Vim -- and it'd never occurred to me that there was any logic whatsoever to HJKL ...until I saw the Veronica Explains video where she was learning to navigate with them -- oh, right, they're in a row on qwerty! And then finding out, oh, it's actually a bit deeper -- the term that Bill Joy used didn't have arrow keys! (I use a 40% board, which also does not have dedicated arrow keys ... what's old is new again.) All of which I mention by way of saying: Everything's obvious/a totally mystery depending on your familiarity/knowledge of the history.

  233. So, just don't do those things? They're bullshit ... and nobody will notice. I encourage my employees to ignore irrelevant emails and leave calls / meetings immediately if they're not contributing and not learning anything from them. Find a company that actually does something useful ... or found one yourself.

  274. My employees are salaried. Nobody tracks how many hours anybody's working -- we employ adults who are assumed to be responsible for themselves and their choices. As long as people are doing good work, I'd rather that they spend time with their families, on their hobbies, and travelling. Partially, this is because I care about them as people; honestly, though, this is primarily because this leads to better retention and long-term productivity -- aligned incentives are a beautiful thing.

  287. It's slightly horrifying that a nuclear reactor was running on core memory, reel-to-reel tape drives, and teletypes into the 1980s. The only more-distressing aspect is that it was coded in assembly -- and you damned well know zero formal methods / mathematically-rigorous verification was done of that code: It would surprise me if they even had unit tests.

We have this hideous, poorly-designed language that's fundamentally single-threaded ... let's bundle it with an asynchronous I/O library and use it to build servers ... what could go wrong!? (But, we'll be modern and slap a type system on top of it so we can say things like 'transpile' and feel like we're using a legit programming language.)

  308. The bigger myth is 'keeping track of your oxygen'. We do not have oxygen tanks; we have air tanks. The only people I know of who go down with pure O2 are those using rebreathers. But nobody's directly breathing pure O2 because oxygen toxicity.

  309.  @theodorealenas3171  I don't do it for my physical boxes, but I have a VM where I run all of my tests ... and it's fully redeployed every week ... which at least gives some confidence in the setup scripts. I do like the idea quite a lot of: Run backup; offload backup to another machine + cloud; autoreformat / blow away state; reprovision bare-metal OS install; copy backup back; run setup scripts. What could go wrong!?

  310. Who will issue you a card that doesn't have NFC in 2024?

  311. So many of these arguments are just false dilemmas / needless tribalism / porque no los dos cases ... I regularly use Emacs and Vim and VSCode and about a dozen other editors for specific things. (Fun fact, you could just use dd for all your editing needs: After all, you're just poking bytes around.) You almost never have to choose exactly one tool. It's not a zero-sum game.

  312. Like just f glibc generally?! It breaks everything on all kinda systems (I've seen it on Arch, Ubuntu, and even the horrible proprietary Mac) We have enough memory these days to just statically link our binaries?!?
    2
  313. I own/love Rolexes (although they're a small minority in my collection). The thing I find disturbing/snobby/off-putting about ADs is how differently they treat people who walk in wearing Rolexes vs wearing anything else. I've been to boutiques is at least 5 countries, and the salespeople are just that -- SALES people who don't seem to know a damned thing about watches.

  318. To clarify, I didn't mean to be snarky there: My point was that my understanding is that the word 'holocaust' predates WWII by ... at least centuries. Incidentally, ChatGPT says: 'The word "Holocaust" generally refers to the genocide of six million Jews by the Nazis during World War II. However, it is also used more broadly to describe the systematic persecution and murder of other groups by the Nazis, including Romani people, people with disabilities, LGBTQ+ individuals, political dissidents, and others.'🤷‍♀

  326. Not sure how to say this without sounding like a giant troll ... but having spent significant time in Central America, people in the rich world are too fragile, too reliant on 'the system' to provide services and (the illusion of) 'safety'. Children (and adults) in poor countries walk or cycle along the side of the road (and cross roads as necessary) and nobody clutches their pearls about it.

  327.  @nelsonphilip4520  haha, might have got the number a bit low, eh?

  328.  @styleisaweapon  Depends very much on the use case -- absolutely that'd matter way more if it were some low-level hard-real-time system or a high-volume trading system or something ... and you're quite right -- even for say a frontend thing (and this is way outside of things I'm familiar with), I know that good devs grab flame graphs and are trying to cut out needlessly expensive ops in their JavaScript -- which is probably 5 levels of abstraction away from bare metal. But, I'd still expect someone with a comp sci background to be conversant in asymptotic complexity -- even if just to discuss why it misses things ... and why writing a quadratic solution to a thing that could be linear is probably (although not always) not a great idea. All abstractions ignore things; some abstractions are useful.

  329. I had a similar experience years ago ... It's slightly magical watching someone actually using Vim (in the sense of: it's unclear what they're doing, but edits are happening), but learning Vim is nothing short of life-changing.

  363. Why the hell is anyone still using Cobol for anything!? Programming languages from 1960 should have been retired decades ago.
    2
  364. CompareStrings is actually only a slight charicture of quite a lot of code that I've seen, especially in languages like JavaScript. The contortions that the impure people go through to use a test framework to mutably monkey-patch spies in place of the IO functions to recover input-output behaviour of the function should be the most obvious code smell imaginable, but it's unthinkable to them that refactoring in this way is even possible. Their ontology has decomposed the world in a way that makes this sort of thinking very difficult.
    2
  365. Can your assembly language do that!?
    2
  366.  @martintanz9098  I find it really a great bit of fun ... why only have a few watches when you can have many? Less-loved watches are still loved (and unloved watches get sold to someone who will enjoy them) ... can't take our money with us, so might as well find a worthy cause to bequeath most of it to ... and buy some consumerist crap that we don't need (but enjoy!) -- like watches -- with a relatively-trivial sum.

  377.  @Lewdiculous  Horses for courses. I'm glad that Windows exists for the sort of people who like that ... and I've never understood the weird inclination that many GNU/Linux users have towards converting others. And I'm glad that Linux exists so that I don't have to run bloated graphical nonsense and can use a beautiful TTY keyboard-only🤷‍♀️
    2
  378.  @Lewdiculous  Yep! WSL2 is pretty great! Despite the slightly-trolly way -- as is my style -- I wrote that, I do legit mostly sit at a full-screen term most of the time ... Possibly the only place I'm truly a minimalist. I had Win 11 running on a box recently for an experiment, and I had Ubuntu on WSL; was sincerely impressed with how seamless / dead easy getting X11 working was (in addition to normal terminal things). Msft have come a long way from the 'must kill the Linux at all costs' daze. 😉

    2
  393. It's extremely odd how insular most countries are: I don't care what the 'Best X in Britain' is if there's a better X from elsewhere ... nations are legacy abstractions that seem anachronistic, unnecessary, and possibly harmful in a global world ...

  395. I watched a code stream yesterday where a junior OO dev was implementing Tetris ... The logic and the rendering were totally intermingled -- if she'd wanted to switch from whatever Python-games 'framework' she was using to do the IO to, say, ncurses, she would have had to have rewritten code everywhere ... This talk fairly cleanly explains precisely what's wrong with this approach.
    2
  396. Prime same-day / next-day is useful for convenience: Opportunity cost of time >> cost of money. Could I save money buying things at local shops? Probably. Do I care? Not really.

    2
  429. 100% about being cautious early on about buying from private sellers; better to spend a bit more and risk less until you know what you're looking at / buying. So, regarding selling your watch/waiting for a price: This entirely depends on what you value your opportunity cost of time -- selling for less but spending less time may be a net win.🤷‍♀ Unrelated: Your nose freckles are the cuuuutest!!!!

    2
  434. Strictly-business question: Is Minnesota a large enough market that companies won't simply ... stop selling in the state (i.e., market exit) to avoid compliance?
    2
  435.  @VeronicaExplains  Google (at least for a while (?)) pulled the plug in China because they weren't willing to comply with local laws ... and people repairing things seems like it'd get in the way of selling more planned-obsolete crap.

  441.  @djgeorgetsagkadopoulos  Just like SOME text editors are nearly operating systems (Emacs/VSCode/IntelliJ) and some just edit text (Nano/Ed) ... SOME loggers are overcomplicated monstrosities that handle things beyond logging ... some just write timestamped text and rely on their users to do SQL queries or interpolate text.🤷‍♀️

    2
  465. I'm ridiculously confused by their pricing: Sending between North America and Europe is way way cheaper (almost a factor of 10) than sending within the U.S. (Edit: I suppose they're hiding additional margin in a really poor USD<->EUR exchange rate?)

  503.  @ZeroRed78  'Good' is made-up and roughly means 'is aligned with my arbitrary/subjective preferences'. Better to simply see them as utterly contingent and try to find alignment with others. E.g., I prefer to not be killed, and so do you (presumably).

  566. More generally, I find it bewildering that anybody cares about how popular the things that they enjoy are. I like what I like because I like it; as long as there is enough support for it that it continues to exist, why would I care how many others like it? (This is much broader than GNU/Linux distros -- as attested to by all of the comments on YT roughly of the form 'you should have more subs' blah blah ... who the hell cares!?)

  587. How does dumping work for carts that have non-ROM chips -- the FX, for instance?
    1
  588.  @cmcm711  But, reading data from ROM chips isn't the same as somehow gaining the ability to emulate a co-processor or potentially-more-exotic hardware ... I guess what I'm getting at is: In disc-based systems, yes, the game is purely data ... but in cartridge-based systems I could solder whatever the heck I want onto the PCB ...

  601. I only learnt Vi/Vim ~5 years ago and now enable emulation everywhere from my browser to Emacs to my terminal. Watching non-Vim people taking forever to inelegantly do the simplest things is truly painful -- the amount of time/mental energy that you'd save having actually-useful and compositional abstractions for moving your cursor makes learning Vim a net win ... and you can use it in whatever editor you already prefer. ¿Porque no los dos?

    1
  680.  @BlownMacTruck  No.
    1
  681.  @BlownMacTruck  It's not a fallacy. Literally anybody can make any statement about anything. That's pretty much the nature of language; it's generative and the set of possible sentences about any particular subject is transfinite.

  682. ... and, actually, people are perfectly capable of speaking non-sentence utterances, as well ...
    1
  683.  @BlownMacTruck  It seems quite evident that you do not understand how universal quantifiers work. If I can say anything about anything, then I can say anything about any decade; decades, quite obviously, being a strict subtype of all things.

  701. I wasn't impressed by the Sky Dweller until I had one on-wrist: It's a marvel of engineering (and so much better a UX for an annual calendar than the watches that have those stupid recessed pushers that require tools) ... I'd buy a 40mm version (or 38 or 36) at RRP in a second, but the 42 just feels way to chonky.

  710. It's like looking at old vacuum-tube computers -- there's way more VISIBLE complexity on the old machines ... and the circuit diagrams are still at the level that a brain can comprehend ... whereas once you've got an IC-based CPU, it's just a(n often literal) black box that just sits there with no obvious clues to what it's doing. Even the 6502 (which is pretty close to contemporary with Aztec) was ~4500 transistors which is way more ACTUAL complexity than this table has.

  746. Hot take: I sincerely prefer manual seats. 1) Manual seats are faster to adjust. 2) Manual seats can be adjusted when the car is fully switched off. 3) Power seats add weight. 4) Long-tail tech (i.e., crap 'features' that are very-infrequently used) doesn't make something more pleasant on-net.

  784. (Fav case that I see a lot is: People doing mid-sequence insertion into something that's backed by an array ... and they just assume that it's efficient ... With good people, asking 'so, how would you implement insertion in a contiguous-mem-backed container?' will get them to realise it ... but I've had candidates refuse to believe that it's not const time.)

  788. It's not that politicians 'don't care anymore'; they never cared: They just said the current thing, and the current thing has changed. They're all assholes, they're all 'fuckin guys' -- Democrats, Republicans, Labour, Tories ... Unclear why any of this surprises anybody.

  789. Eating in cars is a truly-odd Americanism. I've even heard that there are tables that can be clipped to the steering wheel for this purpose!?
    1
  790.  @jeffhampton2767  My understanding is that it's more extensive than this: Eating snacks during so-called 'road trips', drive-in 'restaurants' and cinemas, and I've definitely seen people eating whilst driving alone ...
    1
  791.  @jeffhampton2767  It's just very strange. I eat at a table, and I don't consider meals to be wasting time. Take-away coffee also seems very strange to me -- I don't want to drink out of crap single-use cups. Also, it's 'doughnut'.
    1
  792.  @jeffhampton2767  Precisely my point: People in the US tend to have rather unusual priorities ... And, you can blame your poor technology, or you can take some responsibility and proofread🤷‍♀
    1
  793.  @jeffhampton2767  I'm happy to learn that you don't care; I'm pointing out that it strikes me as an odd and oddly-American quirk. And driving for 10 or 15 hours also strikes me as oddly-American: In the rest of the world, we have jets and trains.

  800.  @Ed70Nova427   It might be good to only speak about things for which you have data. You've no idea where I live, which country claims me as a subject, or whether those are the same or even related answers. I didn't request nor do I require your advice regarding where or how I ought to live.

  847. Whichever watch I happen to wear on an outrageous strap gets the most compliments from non-watch people: Most people don't notice the head of the watch AT ALL, they just see a brightly-coloured 'band'. And, if I wore the same watch on a bracelet or a brown leather strap, they wouldn't even notice that it exists From watch nerds, it's a different story: The thing that gets the most compliments and offers is a '60s Navitimer with a 'Tropical' / faded dial; I've turned down many offers ... but it's always resulted in an interesting chat.

  898.  @DavidLindes  Knowing the theory behind regexps is the interesting bit; there are references (or LLMs) for the derpy idiosyncrasies of the various flavours.

  899.  @DavidLindes  That depends on the learner; some do better learning theory then applying it, and some do better learning pragmatics and then the theory underlying it.

  900.  @DavidLindes  How nice that might be for you; I'm pleased to have been taught theory-first ... and proud to have taught that way during my academic career. Mathematics is what's real; the world and 'practical realities' are just emergent properties -- persistent illusions.

If you ever go to a bar or pinball museum that has one of these old electromechanical machines, you're almost guaranteed that one of them will be open/being serviced ... watching/talking to whoever's debugging/fixing the machine for a while is at least as much fun as playing pinball ... and I've always found them to be giant nerds who are all too happy to talk about what they're doing/how the machine works.

  937. Fulfilling all the memes: I use Arch btw ... Ah, what I prefer about it include: 1. Packages actually get updated/aren't crusty and ancient. 2. I prefer `pacman`, and it doesn't complain about not having a stable CLI (like `apt` does) in automation/scripts. 3. AUR has approximately every package ever (rather than having to use those derpy PPAs to get everything that Debian forgot to include). 4. Arch Wiki. ymmv 🤷‍♀

  946. I mean, ask most people now to explain the Internet ... and, at best, they'll give you some incredibly-superficial description and probably have no idea what the difference between the Web and the Internet is ... People still think that hackers can steal their passwords on public wifi if they don't use the VPN their favourite 'influencer' recommends ... and don't know the difference between DNS and TLS and HTTP and TCP. It's basically 'magic' to most people.

  951.  @ironhead2008  Formal proof of correctness seems significantly more important. A higher-level, referentially-transparent language would be significantly easier to prove anything about ... and -- because of better abstraction capabilities -- more tractable to make any mathematically-rigorous claims about.

  952.  @ironhead2008  For instance: 'I wrote my assembly code reaaal carefully.' is an infinitely-less-convincing argument that deadlock is impossible than a proof in a formal logic.

  953. I own/use several of these and love them. My primary use case is annotating and sharing PDFs of journal articles, and this is so much easier/smaller/faster than doing this on paper would be. The one thing that would make it significantly better is the ability to mount it as a normal USB drive -- like the SuperNote (several of which I also own) can do.

  954. I consider phones disposable -- f derpy pleb cases; if I drop it, I'll just buy a new one. However, there are other benefits of user-replaceable batteries that I do care about are: 1) Zero downtime and without need for cables hanging off of it. 2) Arbitrarily-extensible runtime. And, as regards 'only for EU', there is only one global market: The manufacturer may choose not to offer a product in some market, but ... guess what grey market exists ... as well as international shipping ... as well as international travel!?

  1000.  @globalvoice...  Obviously. But, if you want to have more space / weight occupied, you pay for it -- this is bleedingly obvious with air freight (precisely because it's a major cost factor); no reason that it should be different with passengers. And, it's already done to some extent: If you want to have more space (e.g., a 1st-class seat) allocated to you, you pay more. Doesn't seem like rocket science that weight is also a highly-relevant factor.

The big exception is Amazon: Prime membership is well worthwhile because I can just order things now and forget about them rather than tasking someone with buying them or doing it myself. It turns so many 'Defer' and 'Delegate' cases into 'Do' ones that, then, are effectively resolved immediately.

I do roughly the same for my company: Everyone from the janitor to researchers to leadership is empowered to order whatever will help them do their work (with varying dollar thresholds) no questions asked because it saves so much in co-ordination costs and helps people to make more-impactful choices that yield results sooner. We only ever had one problematic case ... and that person was a problem for numerous other reasons, as well.

  1099. I come from a different family/class background than you do ... and the idea that money or how people use it 'means' anything is totally foreign: It simply does not compute for me that people spend so much of a non-renewable resource (life / time) in search of a 'good value', just to avoid 'unnecessarily' expending a very-renewable resource (money).

  1128. I impulse bought one of these the other day; I love it ... One thing to consider: There's no micro-adjust for the bracelet ... meaning that you can only get it approximately the right size -- if it fits when it's cool, it'll cut off circulation to your hand when it warms up; if it fits when it's warm, it'll be a bit floppy when it cools down. But the watch is surprisingly nice for how inexpensive it is.

  1129.  @tongotongo3143  Well, most people don't even care about watches at all (i.e, don't want to buy them at any price). And this is relatively inexpensive/great! Just wore it today co-incidentally.

  1168. People who don't know anything about watches seem to notice the bracelet / strap more than anything about the head of the watch, its functions, or even the quality of the bracelet. It's about as asinine as knowing nothing about Champagne and drawing conclusions based on the colour of the foil.

  1185.  @boogersaregood  There are two things that I'm optimising for: 1. Communication. Can I see how much heat is being applied to each pan? 2. Precision. Can I directly/predictably/precisely control the first derivative of temperature? When I've used electric, neither of these is the case. I've been told that 2 is decently possible with induction, but that limits which pans you can use and provides no visual feedback regarding how much heat it's outputting to each pan.

You have absolutely no way to verify anything about closed code other than nebulous claims made by whoever released the software ... and blackbox testing. It's not like code review is any different for closed-source code than for open -- a trusted contributor who violates that trust could just as well have sneaked this backdoor into a closed project ... and it would be nearly impossible to detect beyond seeing some sus network traffic.

    1
  1341.  @NotShowingOff  Well, the level of service at 3-starred restaurants is substantially better than at generic chain restaurants ... servers at nice restaurants ought to be/will be paid more because they're doing different work than the basically-unskilled, low-quality service at lesser restaurants. That's orthogonal to tipping vs wage/salary: Tipping can be eliminated while still paying servers commensurate with the level of value that they provide.

  1356.  @RayEccleston  On what basis do you assume that eliminating 'optional' 'gratuities' (in favour of higher on-menu prices + reasonable hourly wages for servers) would result in lower pay? You seem to assume that a 'reduction in pay' as a result of eliminating tipping is somehow a foregone conclusion. My goal isn't to pay less, it's to have restaurants pay servers market-rate wages that are included in prices listed on-menu ... just like the restaurant's rent and electricity and ingredient costs and the wages of non-tipped staff are currently.

(For people searching: Masters In Time (I have no affiliation/experience with them.) have them at ~US$260 (zero idea whether that includes shipping) ... although they're out of the yellow dial.) (Edit: I have no idea whether Masters is grey-market or a Citizen AD; I inadvertently implied the former.)

  1495. For curiosity: Do people actually care about buying from ADs / guarantees / etc. for watches that are this inexpensive? If so, why?

  1496. Welp, finally have the thing on-wrist. Pretty great, although I'd prefer if it weren't trying so hard to ape the President bracelet.

  1498. Can't say 'Porsche' or 'Stuttgart' properly: Brit confirmed.

  1499. The most obvious thing that would happen without street signs is that municipalities couldn't steal people's money for driving faster than some arbitrary numbers. Government hates losing its rent-seeking opportunities.

  1501. Houses are boring af ... They're just a box to store yourself and your stuff in ... Truly bewildering that people 'identify with' their houses so deeply or see them as somehow reflecting ... anything about anything. Find better hobbies and more-interesting interests!?

  1502. Hot take about the Submariner: WTF are you wearing a dive watch for if you're not a diver? It's like walking around wearing surgery scrubs for the lulz.

  1503. Why do you pronounce 'Metas' that way? It's as if you're code-switching to some other language; but I'm not sure what that language it's meant to be.

  1504. The reason for using FP isn't parallellism. It's being able to reason about abstractions rigorously. Referential transparency is a hell of a drug.

  1506. 1) Not everyone is going to buy a lifetime membership. 2) I suspect that somebody's thought through those trade-offs quite carefully ... and they'll stop selling lifetime memberships when they've raised ... whatever number they're trying to raise for current expansion. 3) They're trading 0% equity, which is a better deal than any VC would give them.

    1
  1536.  @Sawyersaviation  Lolwut? You don't get any more flying time -- plane rotates for you at same time no matter when you board. But, I like drinks, and boarding first means that there's plenty of time for a couple before pushback.

  1541.  @corey4109  I mean, that literally cannot be true, given that modern cruise control is radar-based.

  1552. There's plenty of detail in a 16mm print; digital upscaling -- by child labour or otherwise -- isn't necessary ... Just higher-res source scan of the film.

  1553.  @theonlycaulfield  It is 480p. That might have been acceptable in the '80s but it's not exactly HD much less 4k or 8k.

  1554.  @theonlycaulfield  You're entitled to have whatever preferences you like; the video, objectively, however is not at par with modern standards.
    1
  1555.  @theonlycaulfield Are you trolling or a complete idiot? Yes, this was FILMED in the '80s -- on 16mm which has way more information than 480p. This is a lazy, low-quality film->digital transfer. Nobody has any obligation to anyone. But, this guy wants to make money from views of his videos; that won't happen if the product that he's providing continues to be substandard.

  1556.  @theonlycaulfield Or, let me put it a different way: History should be preserved in high quality ... not in a version that's only suitable to play on a potato.

Is there a lore-dump video somewhere that talks about your background -- life story (to the extent that you want to share), education / how you got into historical fashion (I know that you've talked about your heritage and that that's related ...), where you live, etc.? (Your accent sounds Canadian, but I'm fairly certain that you've said that you live in the UK?)

  1580. To be clear, when I'm in the States, I tip 25% because I can afford it, and I don't complain to the people serving me ... But, when I'm talking with other upper class people -- people who could actually change something -- I make sure that they know that I think their society is poorly-designed.

  1582.  @Smitty_Werbenjagermanjenson  I mean, I'll grant that SOME back-end work is used to power websites, but it's a generally-orthogonal skillset ... Do you consider work on non-HTTP servers (e.g. ,gRPC) to be 'web dev', as well!? ... what about devs who work on, well, either front- or back-end of either mobile or desktop apps (which probably use the internet but probably do not use the web)? This totally is at-odds with my tech taxonomy.

  1592.  @jamesevans2507  Well, you can write assembly and interface that way -- either by writing straight asm or some languages allow embedding asm.
    1
  1593. @dawin64 And NOT wanting the bloat of glibc is at least one reason that you might want to do the syscalls directly.
    1
  1594. Also glibc is a giant PITA if you want to do a fully-statically-linked build. Yes, if you have Musl available, great ... but if not, that's potentially another reason to go through asm directly.
    1
  1595.  @jamesevans2507  Maybe I misunderstood earlier. But `syscall` to take x64 as an example is a CPU supported instruction that can be called directly (assuming correct reg config) from machine code. Things like `glibc` expose C wrapper functions that are afaik, asm under the covers, bridging the C calling convention (i.e., positional args) with the register-based one of the `syscall` handler.

  1675.  @stevenbodum3405  To put a finer point on 'more or less', Rojas 1997 has probably the best pull-quote summary: '[F]rom an abstract theoretical perspective, the computing model of the Z3 is equivalent to the computing model of today's computers. From a practical perspective, and in the way that the Z3 was really programmed, it was not equivalent to modern computers.' ... Which, of course, he immediately follows with 'I am of course aware that these conclusions are curious enough to re-ignite the whole discussion about the invention of the computer.' ;)

  1676.  @marieascot  In reply to 'It does if you are claiming it to be the first.' ... It 100% does not. Rolex claim to have created the 'first' version of all sorts of things that others did before them (e.g., 'first waterproof watch') ... That their claims are demonstrably false is irrelevant in-the-world (e.g., to Rolex sales).

  1678. I'm kinda surprised that anyone who buys a Sys76 doesn't reformat their machine and install Arch or Debian immediately.

  1681. It's amazing -- given that they designed the ability to encrypt it -- that the signal is not signed, which would trivially allow detection of fraudulent / spoofed broadcasts.

  1687. I'm 100% aware that this is utterly not the point of this video, but I'm now wondering: Where the heck did my crowbar go? EDIT: So, pretty sure I've lost my crowbar. Now, it doesn't even matter if I want to deprive people of rights. I can neither do that nor use my crowbar.

  1688. ok boomer

  1689. All of this just seems like it's handled with a much more general solution: STFU about politics. Nobody cares what you think or which lying politicians you hate more or less.

  1690.  @JUSTK1DD1N  To be fair, there's opportunity cost ... and libraries aren't actually 'free'.

  1703. This is no different to using gears to slow down in non-emergencies -- I was always taught that this was the preferred way to drive, and that brakes ought to be only for 'Oh, shit! I really, really need to stop NOW.' cases (and for holding the car at a stop).

  1704. The royal family is, in totality, an expensive luxury that should be got rid of.
