That’s completely misguided, because people can see his code anyway (in his streams), and also because he will never finish or release his game

That’d be part of why they’re single, I guess

Every Ralph you think about after you stop thinking about the previous Ralph is a new Ralph, completely independent from the previous Ralph event.

Is it genocide if you are also creating the Ralphs that you kill?

Americans will really use literally any units except for the metric system. How long is a canary?!

Unfortunately there really isn’t a viable option for most people. Maybe there are alternatives depending on your field and your geographical location (I know they use something else a lot in Germany), but for most people you’re really forced to use LinkedIn or you’re potentially doing a huge disservice to your career.

Which is the main source of hatred for LinkedIn: most people would rather not be using it but they stay there for their careers. Others use it as a platform to promote their crazy ideas, again in an effort to make them more employable or reach out to new professional connections. It’s a harsh world, but each of these insane posts makes that website a tiny bit more unbearable.

Boomer moment: I’m 30 but never got used to the feeling of modern smartphones against out ears. It’s terrible and I can never hear or be heard well enough. It’s to a point where I always answer in speakerphone or with headphones, facilitated by not answering the phone often. Recently I’ve been wishing to get an old phone-like accessory for my smartphone so I could do calls in a comfortable way.

… Then again, during covid I learned to answer phones around the lab on speakerphone, too, and these were classic-style phones. So maybe I’m a lost cause

Edit: old cellphones were fine, it’s just smartphones that have the worst possible shape and texture to hold them against my ear. Sadly, my parents still see that as the primary use for a phone.

There’s divergent evolution, there’s convergent evolution, and then there’s these guys who went through both, taking the scenic route but getting to the same place anyway

Here you can still find paper bags (and even plastic bags if you ask). I guess the other commenter lives somewhere similar

Genuinely appreciate your and the other commenters’ inputs, I really did only focus on his image outside of France. Thank you for all these examples!

Man, I know people dislike Macron, and I still think his handling of the Le Penn situation last year was a dramatic misplay, but I’ve always had a huge amount of respect for him. Maybe because I don’t live in France (although I was almost accepted into a job there earlier this year!), but he seems like such a role model in terms of political leadership. He’s been handling the Trump/Putin situation much better than most other world leaders, in my opinion

Similarly, it turns any random hike or walk into a pokemon collection session. I used to hate going on hikes but now I am always looking forward to the next opportunity to add to my pokedex life list

Yeah I also don’t understand this part. Can the antibodies targeting the bare spike protein attach to it despite the presence of the sugars? Or are there a few spike proteins in the virus which do not have the sugars, not enough to effectively develop antibodies but enough for already existing antibodies to attach to?

I may have missed it in the article, I’m not in life sciences so I don’t have all the prerequisite knowledge for this

Edit: this came out sounding super negative, I’m actually super excited about this development and all I want is to understand a bit better how it works

I have seen variations on this online for a long time, and this has always baffled me: do strangers in America really go up to random people who are speaking foreign languages and tell them “you are in X, speak Xese”, a language they may or may not speak? Even among people who share their native language?

The answer, according to the original definition of meme: yes
