Sam Harris articulating why "using human shields" versus "being deterred by them" tells you "everything you need to know about the moral imbalance between Israel and her enemies." TRANSCRIPT: The truth is that everything you need to know about the moral imbalance between Israel…

We made up a new word because we couldn't find an existing one: "Synonomatopoeia" A word that is itself an example of what it describes. E.g. "Jamble" is a scramble of jumble and scramble and thus demonstrates Synonomatopoeia.

How is it still acceptable for pages/apps to load in a way that forces you to interact with content "not where it is" but rather "where it's going to be". I feel like I'm sniping from a distance when a header loads late and I click right behind my target.

Just watched tick, tick...boom Struck by how the name of the movie (the name of his musical) pretty much describes the condition Jonathan Larson died from, it discusses how he's short on time, and how it all ends suddenly. It's almost too much foreshadowing, but it's in real life

Looks cool, and I have no idea how they're manipulating that stuff. Unfortunately, new scientist is being pretty liberal with the word "could". The slime you see there is toxic. Would be great to see this progress.
