@jan_murray And somehow, it’s the best freaking show you’ve ever watched.

@Grady_Booch Agree. Also, it takes millions, if not billions, of Homo sapiens brains to produce a few truly meaningful contributions. The vast majority, while certainly capable of more, end up being used for mundane tasks.

@Nutri_Science_ Credibility goes out the window on posts like these as soon as you post that miracle supplement you endorse.

@oldyzach Such a great memory!

@AC_assettocorsa Could you add an option to start at different points on the track in practice mode for both Rally and EVO? It would make it much easier to practice specific sections of a track.

@astupple @cwarny @DavidDeutschOxf He is setting some expectations for parents. He is not questioning the importance of good parenting only saying how much you should and shouldn’t expect from it. Check George Carlin’s bit on “professional parents”.

Fortunately, these days, I don't need to create "deep anxiety inside a Harvard professor".

@marcrandolph Liking and driving nice sports cars is very meaningful for a lot of people. Why can’t things that have high cost be meaningful? The enjoyment of expensive things doesn’t negate the enjoyment of things that don’t cost money.

The economy class seats are so bad today.

@TheOldCootBiker @Camp4 Your interest will soon become irrelevant.

@Camp4 The only issue is that the screens are not integrated in the dashboard.

@nntaleb Integrity is everything.

Some people are so insecure that they prefer to make you believe they lied rather than admit they made a mistake.

@airmainengineer They just need to desaturate the colours, add some haze, and introduce more randomness and imperfections, and the left will be almost indistinguishable from the right.

[Stojan Mishkovski @mishkovski]

Yes!

If I had to choose just one game (and no other ever again) to play for the rest of my life, I'd go with Civilization (MicroProse, 1991). You can argue some sequels were better (I can't deny that), but the "wow" effect from first playing it in 1991 was so huge it holds a special place in my heart.

For a 1991 game, the graphics are pretty good, the sound fits perfectly (rather soothing!), gameplay is complex and variable, and replay value is gigantic. To me, Civilization is as close to perfection as a game can be. That's my pick. What's yours?

@dvassallo Hey Daniel, it is quite different. The coaches are directly invested in their coachees’ success, putting their own reputation and time on the line. And they are usually dedicated to one athlete/team at a time.

@romanhelmetguy Greeks?! It was the Ancient Macedonians. There was a Greek participation but mainly it was the Macedonians.

Immense planning and technical precision was required for this absolutely preposterous (but real) view: I captured my friend @BlackGryph0n transiting the sun during a skydive.

This might be the first photo of it's kind in existence. See a video of this moment in the reply 👇
