  • I recently read Jurassic Park for the first time and I thought the same thing. The movie provided a more engaging plot, had more emotional punch, and developed stronger characterization. Going back and reading Chrichton's work has been a rewarding exercise to me as a budding writer. He had some great ideas but also surprisingly had a lot of flaws in his work.

  • Video shows police open fire on California man holding a fork
  • It's a bad article and a bad video. The non-lethal rounds did not kill him. The video says an officer "opened fire", after the non-lethal didn't work and the man grabbed the other officer's weapon. Opened fire in this case means a standard firearm. Other actually good articles covering this make that clear. He was struck in the chest with an actual bullet fired from a hand gun.

    I agree the cops should have handled it differently and fucked up as usual

  • People who don't say what tempreture unit they are using are infuriating
  • I feel that. Me coming from a science background - always use your units. 20 and 20C are not the same thing. Without a unit, a number exists only as a mathematical idea. Even in my own personal notes, I use proper unit notation.
