All odd numbers are obviously prime. Don't believe anyone who says otherwise.

27 is a pretty cool number.

Most birds roost in trees to minimise exposure to predators. Is it possible that birds that are used to living with humans might similarly see a cage as a place of safety? For rest or just taking a break from watchfulness?

(I'm personally uncomfortable with birds being caged for long periods or in confined spaces, and I'm not offering the above as a justification. I don't own or live with any animals.)


I used it 18 months ago when I was looking for a job, and I found a paid subscription genuinely useful. Before and since: almost never. If I change jobs again then I'll use it again.

At this point I assume that all the "thought leaders" posting garbage are either bots or people too oblivious to understand how dismal the platform is.


One thing I've never been able to understand about this new sideload "flow" is whether it will be applied to older devices, or just from some (future or recent) version of Android. Does anyone know?

And then they would find a way to make that embedded Doom run the thing that they are building [1]. Possibly inside a cellular automaton.

At this point, I’m just waiting for someone to implement a CSS-only browser inside this CSS-only Doom, so we can achieve full recursive insanity. The 'Can it run Doom?' meme has officially transcended hardware and entered the realm of pure Turing-complete masochism.

This is verifiably not true.

Here's a comment [1] written by an account that is currently two hours old. Its visible to me if I'm logged in, with or without showdead enabled. Its also visible in an incognito tab where I'm not logged-in.

As others have said, you probably posted something that triggered a filter.

> Yeah because it has replies.

That doesn't make sense. How would people be able to reply to a comment that was hidden?



I'd argue that your life isn't a thing at you "do" something with. To think that it is seems like a category error to me. This doesn't preclude healthy ambition - but above all try to enjoy your brief time in the light, and be kind.

    Lying in a Hammock at William Duffy’s Farm in Pine Island, Minnesota

    by James Wright

    Over my head, I see the bronze butterfly,
    Asleep on the black trunk,
    Blowing like a leaf in green shadow.
    Down the ravine behind the empty house,
    The cowbells follow one another
    Into the distances of the afternoon.
    To my right,
    In a field of sunlight between two pines,
    The droppings of last year’s horses
    Blaze up into golden stones.
    I lean back, as the evening darkens and comes on.
    A chicken hawk floats over, looking for home.
    I have wasted my life.

> "TotalEnergies CEO Pouyanné said offshore wind was 'not the most affordable way to produce electricity' in the US, which he identified as being natural gas-fired power plants. [...] So it was a win-win dialog," he said."

Pouyanné is only 62 years old. If, as I hope, there are criminal trials in the future for those responsible for recklessly endangering life on this planet, then I hope that he is still alive and that statements like this form part of the prosecution. Unfortunately Trump will almost certainly be long dead by then.


If we all lived on a space station these are the kind of people that would buy Oxygen futures and veto fixing the leaks in the hull.
