You die twice. One time when you stop breathing, and a second time, a bit later on, when somebody damns your soul for the last time.

  • Black tea refers to the visible degree of oxidation of the tea leaves

    Makes sense

    grapes are called that because they produce white (clear) liquid

    Even if it produced indisputably white liquid. Why not call it after its own color while tea is named after the color of its processed leaves?

    You’d expect tea which is thought of as a drink to be known for the color of the liquid, and grapes often eaten as is to be named after their color.

    But it doesn’t really matter, any of these could’ve been named after whichever color they were at any point of their making / preparation. It’s not like there’s a convention or something



















  • Yeah, that’s the solution I asked about (last line of my question). I was just trying to make sure that this is ok and won’t tangle up my code later on.

    I’m not sure why you’re using as to make the module name longer? Usually, if I use it at all, I use it make things shorter. Anyway, once you’ve imported dep2, you can call dep2.some_fn().

    That was just for the example (clarifying order of import). The actual code has imports such as from src.formatter import Formatter as fmt; always making the name shorter.

    Thanks for the suggestions







  • it feels like a “web app” more than a website. Like, it somehow needs to “load” after loading the page… unlike classic forum softwares that just instantly show the pre-rendered page.

    I kind of like this behavior. If you’re writing a complex website with user posts, comments, tags, and other nifty stuff and want it to stay modular it’s almost guaranteed that you’ll end up with this loading behavior (unless you want to SSR everything).

    ui also feels way too ‘simple’, hard to navigate and has low info density. i guess this is how more people nowadays prefer things to work

    Don’t know about that, I find it easy to navigate with the consistent sidebar elements. Searching for posts is easy since they’re usually well tagged and have good titles. Searching for solutions and checking out community contributions and votes is about 90% of my use case for a forum. Maybe you have different use cases.

    Would definitely do it*.

    • If the assumed necessities are met (lights don’t even need to go off & the water can be warm).

    The option to spend a day and take the 82m if downscaling is an option is wrong; 4Billion for 50days is the deal. Like surely you had a worst 2months and didn’t get to do the following afterwards: set aside 1B to meet your needs and the needs of most people you know without working for a day of the rest of your life, 1B for projects that cannot fail (cushioned by the mountain of money or pile of gold), and 2B for any cause you believe in (go nuts: make a mini utopia, a nationwide dystopia, preserve the status que, or risk it and go after terrible people who would have never felt justice otherwise).



  • After seeking advice on health topics from ChatGPT, a 60-year-old man who had a “history of studying nutrition in college”

    His ChatGPT conversations led him to believe that he could replace his sodium chloride with sodium bromide, which he obtained over the Internet.

    Three months later, the man showed up at his local emergency room. His neighbor, he said, was trying to poison him.

    He did not mention the sodium bromide or the ChatGPT discussions.


    When the doctors tried their own searches in ChatGPT 3.5, they found that the AI did include bromide in its response, but it also indicated that context mattered and that bromide was not suitable for all uses. But the AI “did not provide a specific health warning, nor did it inquire about why we wanted to know, as we presume a medical professional would do,” wrote the doctors.

    You know what’s the first thing I would do when anyone (or anything) tells me to start substituting something everyone consumes for a chemical compound I’ve never heard of? I would at the very least ask a doctor or search it up.
