Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants. - Epictetus

@NoNeckJoe1 @BillAckman @realDonaldTrump Why not include the full video rather than cutting it off at a moment where she explains what she means. It's clear that she explains she realized early on that with great power comes great responsibility and that you can't use this power for personal gains or revenge.

@StealthElectron @danluu A couple of points: A) Why did you post a screenshot that's over 10 years old. Share the latest Ribbon design. B) Just focusing on how something looks is not what design is about. Read about the history of the Ribbon and problems it tried to solve: https://t.co/G9YoA9KI6T

Do your damn #research before you go design something... even if you're the all-knowing genius TechnoKing.

This thread explains it well why Tesla's semi hasn't been designed with the user in mind.

it's carrying capacity or anything. I will just look at the cab from the practical point of view of someone who drives trucks for a living. Because it's an opposite of being "built around the driver". Why? Compare it with the new DAF XG+ for example: (2)

@TheLaurenChen That's not how it works Lauren. You're basically saying "Firefighters have been fired and the entire town didn't immediately burst into flames - so they were not necessary."

[Fleur Anderson MP @PutneyFleur]

Why will the government not commit to a simple impact report on Brexit? 🤔

Is it:
A) Because they're too mired in scandal to care

B) Because they're worried about what an impact report might tell us

C) All of the above

[Media Tell The Truth XR @TTTMediaXR]

Once in a while, a scientist or activist gets on TV and tells the truth about the threat facing us. In real life - not just in #DontLookUp.

We need these truths in every news bulletin, hard though they are to hear.

Then we need to act on them.

Confused, scared ducklings at a hatchery. 💔

These poor creatures are looking out at a system that expresses nothing but apathy and cruelty towards them. Let's change that.

@toxi If you can wait till the next election then I'd say stay. I can't see how the current UK government is going to win the next election and I think Labour will not continue this hostile environment.

This is a tremendous loss in so many ways. Jonas Neubauer was one of the greatest classic Tetris players of all time in skill, spirit, and kindness.

Our hearts go out to his family and friends, and to the entire classic Tetris community, as we all mourn his passing.

Every lisp hacker I know, including myself, has found the parenthesis in lisp off-putting. At first of course. Soon after we came to the same conclusion: the power lies in the parens!

In this essay, we'll go on a journey to discover that conclusion :)
