    I wish this blanket statement were true. Firefox is better in some respects, but surely not all. Tab and session management - just to name two examples - are just handled better by the Chromium crowd, as much as it pains me to say that.

    That said, I still use Firefox in most cases.

    Direct quote from the article:

    the American Physical Society state in their Style and Notation Guide on page 21 that they do “multiplication before division”, but you must be careful to not take that out of context

    TBF, that’s actually a pretty profound insight.

    Most, if not all, of us take certain concepts for granted until someone points out that it’s more complex than we realise. Examples like Dark Energy & Matter, entropy, the placebo effect, the nature of mathematical objects, etc. are proof of this.






  • I’m surprised, sad, shocked and disappointed that such laws even have to exist.

    There are actually people out there who want Nazism to exist and flourish. Why are many so short-sighted not to learn at least from recent history?

    • World War II and the Cold War
    • Chernobyl and Fukushima
    • Deepwater Horizon and Exxon Valdez
    • Sidoarjo and Lusi volcanoes
    • North Pacific Garbage Patch
    • Climate change in general

    … and so on. So many lessons to ignore and mistakes to repeat, because many can’t be bothered to look for new solutions to old problems.
