The connection is simply the hypocrisy of republicans who yell about AOC being underqualified, while being totally ok with someone actually completely unqualified.

That is just the tip of the iceberg:

This is exactly why it should throw an error, to make it incredibly obvious something isn’t working correctly so it can be fixed. Otherwise you have wrong logic leading to hard to notice and hard to debug problems in your code

The way I understand “Smalltalk” is not whether the subject matter is “serious enough” but rather whether either party actually has any interest in it, or if it is a polite nicety to avoid awkward silence.

Discussing the weather in a car ride with a coworker is smalltalk, contemplating with a friend how one might conquer the world using ant-controlling super powers is not.

How does that make sense, it’s just arbitrary numbers. I can give you arbitrary numbers for celsius too: 30 being hot but tolerable, 20 being perfect, 10 being cold but tolerable.

I don’t see how this comic talks about climate change at all. It’s basically a long winded way to say “haha some people won’t be ready to adopt new tech until the literal apocalypse”

Let him interact with people and things, but in a retirement home where he belongs.

That blood is actually blue until it gets in contact with air

I was also taught this in school, along with many very unscientific things. When they eventually taught us about evolution (they had to because of national curriculum) they couldn’t stop stressing how it was “just an outdated theory” and showed us additional videos which “disproved” it

Militaries having guns is a very different thing to the general population having guns.

There have been quite a few studies that suggest the opposite. I strongly suggest the book “Human Kind” if you want some optimism, it investigates this topic.

If you think they would be the consequence of banning and removing guns from society, you can test this theory by looking at any country which has already done this. What you find is that gun violence is extremely minimal in these countries. So turns out your worries are over nothing!

I mean people have fun with many things which are dangerous. Fireworks are dangerous, rock climbing is dangerous, driving is dangerous.

I’m strongly anti-gun, but I’m willing to admit they are fun.

In Germany helmets are not required. Some wear them but still very many don’t.

No, len is a constant time operation, at least in most cases I believe.

Communication, as always, is key. They need to have serious proper conversations, she needs to be told pretty much everything in this post. If she is unable to communicate properly then they should try resolve whatever underlying problem is causing that (via therapy or a doctor visit or whatever). But ultimately without open communication, there is no relationship.

This is especially important in long distance relationships, where small misunderstandings or doubts can fester without the other person realising.

Protests are definitely meant to be noticed, and should also make you think. Ideally they should also be attractive for others to join, allowing the protest to gain momentum. But being annoying (at least to regular people) seems counter productive to that? Sometimes it is unavoidable, but I don’t think it should be desired.

Of course being annoying to the body being protested against is definitely desired.
