This seems sadly very true. Just yesterday I was implementing some slightly tricky javascript (not my main language) on hover show n neighbours to each side, and if a deficit on either side, expand to the other side. After about 20 minutes

This at least reflects my feelings about visiting anytime soon. I mean if I was just put on a flight back (for a tweet they found on my phone or such), that'd be kind of bearable. At least one visitor from the UK got locked up in a fac

I remember being taught that Bernoulli's principle causes lift. I was skeptical—how does the air on top know to reach the other end at the same time as the air at the bottom? I think I did ask, and I was just told this is how it works,

Modi apologists seem to make similar attacks on the media and the west. They claim that the media is biased and out to get him, any criticism of him is anti-national and so on. You're claiming that the Uighur women that got forcibly st

It isn't true that airbnb rooms cost less than a hotel, at least in Central London. The reason they can appear cheaper is that you can cram 8 people into a small flat or even a room. I was renting a room in a flat in Soho. The other fl
