Can’t see instructions on how to use it, do I need to do anything non trivial on my phone? Should I test it on an old phone?

It still does not. All the commenter is saying is remember how many kids thought that, and it’s the same when they grow up.

Sometimes you don’t know. Or think it’s not important.

There’s this thing basically (you’ve probably heard about it), “I don’t like X people, but you’re good because you’re not like them”. X can be race, gender, any other things. When you are with that kinda person as long as they like you, you won’t feel how they are, they’ll treat you nice but it’s an exception not the rule. But when they don’t like you, they revert back to treating you like the X group. They’ll even go “I knew X would be like this” and all.

Now in many cases if they were vocal about it from the beginning you’d notice and might get away. But in many cases they won’t be vocal, or they’ll talk about it with some extreme examples which you might feel is justified and you know you’re not like that so it’s fine. And in those cases you yourself might hate those subgroup for ruining your reputation so you might even bond over that.

Again, you can type feet instead of ft and it’ll work. You can write ‘feet per second’ instead of ‘ft/s’ and it’ll work. Natural language has its benefits but when you have a very simple syntax model then there’s less chances of it making a mistake.

Same way people in the past probably said there’s no way you can make anything work without a mechanical mechanism? Can you imagine what an electronic device/chip would look to someone from far past? People thought humans couldn’t fly.

Those “fundamental science” is just us making sense of the universe in a way we can observe it and even then we don’t know everything. Can you imagine how different the universe looks if you just shift the electro magnetic waves you can see.

I also like it very much. I hope they make a library for it soon, I can’t wait to use it to make unit aware calculators.

I mean the syntax for gnu units is literally the same unit expression used in math. m^2, cm, m/s etc. the ft;in looks weird because it’s two units combined.

Your example in it would be units 30ft mm , use -t for terse results that’s just the final value.

Doesn’t even work well on a single monitor on Wayland. It gets confused with screen size or sth, fills a small area on top left with screen contents and lot of black space

Warm as in heated water, yes. Room temperature or lukewarm water from the pipes, NO.

Wait people don’t like drinking water? Drinking water (not warm) when you’re thirsty is a really good feeling. I only struggled with forgetting to drink water when I’m not thirsty, but once I am I drink.

Seeing the sugar addiction and soda problem maybe it was because I didn’t drink those regularly growing up. They were just treats. Also as a child we had fun eating certain fruits that were sour/bitter and then drink water after that, it makes the water taste sweet.

Maybe you can try eating/licking lemon/lime a bit and drink water later.

Because I grew up seeing these so much. I can’t eat dill. The smell just gives me images of caterpillar in my head.

Gnu units does unit conversion. Also seems to have currency. It’s a command line tool though

Yeah. Independence is nice and all, specially because of current advances in technology that makes it possible. But the same technology have made it possible to goto the extreme that we were not prepared for.

Have you met a bayesian guy? All prof on statistics in my uni keep talking how “traditional” approach is stupid, inferior, blah blah

Classes might help. But the important part is someone with experience doing it for you until you get a hang of it. Someone giving you lession on what to do might give you knowledge but it takes practice, reminders etc. I know you said both is good. I agree with that as things change, some practice in the past might not be good now, but that might also come from every generation resetting the knowledge, if you have generational knowledge passed, and collected and refined with community and science, then the things that work well will stick out longer.

Also, no paternity leave in many places, and short maternity leave (looking at US with zero federally required maternity leave), means people take those for recovery and do not have as much free time before they have the baby.

I know right. I don’t see why countries promote this kinda individualism and expect people to have children.

So why are mothers expected to just figure things out on their own? We humans have women living way past fertile age because they were important for children, and suddenly we decided we don’t need grandma’s help passing along generational knowledge and helping first time mothers. Grandma/Grandpa are supposed to be free and focus on helping the parents so they learn and don’t make mistakes because they don’t know anything.

And community too. It’s so isolated. Makes me sad, and afraid to have children.

That’s most probably true for normal cases. I’m thinking of cases where women like other women. So they don’t want to be intimate with their husband anyway. So him losing interest would work great. So it’d be akin to living with a group of girls and an annoying guy who owns the place. Again I’m just making assumptions.

Hi. I don’t have sources but I think it makes sense logically.

Like if you’re a lesbian and want to be with someone in a society like the one where you can’t have lesbian relationship but a guy can have multiple wives, I think you’d get into the same harem. You’d consider the guy as a cost of being with the one you want.

And maybe there are good guys too, and they just let you be there and live how you like. I don’t know how prominent arranged marriage is in those cultures, but some guys could be doing that and just sheltering people too.
