Cats are natural predators after all
Oh I agree, Freud’s work was important. As was Aristotle’s. But if Aristotle had suffered much of the scrutiny that Freud has, science would have advanced a lot faster. Obviously extremely unlikely though, given that Aristotle kinda predated science.
A lot of what he said was just plain wrong, and without the existence of the scientific method back then, no one really questioned him. For example, he basically made the only argument justifying slavery in ancient times, and he notably also got a lot of physics wrong that took until Galileo’s time to get resolved, such as with gravity and the elements.
If only people did that to Aristotle…
For some reason, thought this was loss for a second
We’re on the Earth — how do we see the Earth? By seeing other parts of the Earth that aren’t ourselves. The same is somewhat true for the Milky Way. And like on Earth, you can’t see the whole thing without leaving it, because we only get to see the stuff that isn’t blocked by other things.
I might later. Thatchussy seems like it might have to stay though given it’s in an actual paper on the subject …
Surely it should be “donussy”, not “donutussy”
Also I never want to hear about Thatchussy thank you very much wikipedia
It’s more like “standing goose”
I’m currently in a course about the Roman Republic in college, so pretty much every other day.
Just be in a flying plane at the exact same speed and acceleration so that in your reference frame it becomes easy
If you could get a rubix cube or something at the airport, (which seems plausible) could be a lot of time spent on learning how to do it if you download instructions beforehand.
It’s called history, blame the French
Cuz the gram came before the SI system and the kilogram is a much more useable unit. The original m-g-s are based on physical things, like m being a subdivision of the length from the North Pole to the Equator going through Paris, and s being related to the time of a pendulum with certain length swinging or smth
A gram is the weight of 1 mL of water, roughly.
I mean, I’d be very worried if 2023 wasn’t smarter than 1970 no matter the location.
As someone who speaks Cantonese, it’s more that Cantonese has six tones, rather than similar-sounding vowels. People who don’t know how tonal languages work are prone to fucking it up, cuz we have relatively quite a lot amongst the more popular languages. Plus the large number of homophones cuz of the monosyllablism of Chinese languages where each syllable has its own character, you get a lot of context-dependent words. Also makes for some puns, but yeah.
This somehow looks and feels like Dilbert
(Very plain*) But that’s just perfect for an Amish like me
yes they are, actually. Backwards compatibility is a huge thing in Windows, it’s why you can’t name files certain names such as CON, and why you can find things from 3.1 etc. still.
