  • Genuine question: what is the point of logarithmic scales? Why can't we have a linear scale of 3 to 30 instead of 3 to 4? A linear scale works perfectly fine in most cases (for example the Scoville scale which goes from something like 3 for a green pepper to 20 million for a reaper), so why can't pH do the same?

  • Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate
  • The context switch is what you make it. My switch is a daily ritual whereby I sit in a specific place and read for an hour with a little background music and a drink (if so inclined). That symbolically "closes the door" to the office, even though my flat isn't big enough for separate work/rest spaces.

  • Someone stop the ride, I want to get off
  • "Not completely successful" genocide would mean killing everyone except for a few that got away. Hitler wasn't "completely successful" in exterminating Jews. In this case though, the Palestinian population has grown nonstop, more than quadrupling in the past 50 years. Remind me how that is a copout.

  • Languages in the EU
