The part about good art not being about communication is just plain wrong. Good artists (and yes you can argue that art is subjective) spend thousands of hours studying the fundame…

Yeah the mindset is essentially drive to spec in the test and then skirting the law from then on.

At my Walmart there is roughly 10-15 self checkouts vs 3 cashiers where people with full carts are waiting in line. Self checkout is great if you have a few items. Also cashiers ar…

Worse than that is in my city they decided to add a forced stop to pedestrians crossing a round a bout so if you’re in the roundabout and a pedestrian wants to cross you have to st…

The studies referenced are highlighted and spread throughout the video for each point he talks about. I’m not sure what penis pumps have to do with the quality of his research, the…

Here’s a much better treatment of methylene blue than this article: https://youtu.be/CnIJbbCvFdQ?si=lQ1i2Ah7ZIt6hewT

At least the failures were in software and not hardware. Nothing worse than having to take everything a part again after spending hours on an engine job because you forgot to plug …

Considering they got a government bailout once already I don’t think the US would ever let that happen.

A lot of people like to pretend that smoking weed is harmless. I support legalization but from my personal experience, I’ve suffered psychosis twice after smoking weed, and that’s …

Very cool, I'm in automotive and in school we've got a few of these builds with some older engines to play around with.

Ah yes I know that exact problem. AoPS intro to algebra. That question was great for getting an intuitive sense of proportion, though I do remember one of the sub problems gave me …

Sure make it costly for the company that already pays the employee peanuts when some dickhead leaves a cart full of groceries to spite upper management. Sounds like a fantastic str…

I recently got into the trades and every single day is a humbling experience, seeing what my coworkers can do first hand is astounding I feel like a baby in terms of ability and us…

Goodluck replicating and replacing a leyendecker or a Gibson or a Rockwell. Getting to that level of technical proficiency is more than just settling into a style.

I’d still venture to guess it was genetics, I played outside all the time, granted I used the computer a lot growing up too and I still needed glasses around 13 - 14 years of age.

I work 10 hours a day in a physically demanding trade, work out most days, eat, spend time with family. It doesn’t leave much time for reading or learning hobbies I’m interested in…

Yes, I went from focusing on programming, to then switching to Math, dropping out to focus on art, and now I have a career in coffee and I couldn’t be happier as all the interests …

The only technique I’ve ever relied on without fail is to trust my gut.

> Still good but hardly fresh for a specialty. Was going to say this, I work at a specialty coffee shop and anything over 2-3 weeks is unusable.

I did something similar though I never made it into tech, I dropped out of a bachelor's in math to pursue art, this was roughly 5 years ago and it's been a tough journey, I wish yo…

Exercise and Diet.
