Forget the guns, they don't even have internet access. How can they coordinate without internet? Source: NetBlocks

Bevel makes disposable safety razors for travel. Yes disposable double edged safety razors. They are quite nice nice. It's a plastic handle with standard double edged blade in there but it's non removable.

Nowadays twisted supports this syntax:
async def doIt():
responseBody = await makeRequest("GET", "/users")
return json.loads(responseBody)

"long for nor fear the next day" can be interpreted as to fulfill your responsibilities so that you don't fear the next day.

It's more plausible to me that the movie was a product of its times rather than the cause of the trend. Maybe there was more interest in wine during that time, and more discussion about the different types. It would explain why a movie centered around wine was developed and became a box office success.

It seems like a logistical problem and lack of public restrooms. There is no easy solution. Let's say you are driving in an urban area, where can you go? Maybe there's traffic too. Where are you going to park? Or you are in a rural area and the next gas station is miles away. Your options are clearly limited.

Two issues with this methodology. First as he states there is a difference between talent and IQ, this does not seem to tease out the difference.
You can imagine someone with alot of experience but slower thinking speed doing just as well as someone with less experience and faster thinking speed.
Second this is also relative to the problem being asked. With the tic tac toe one, you can also think about someone who maybe has been on leetcode alot and has no actual work experience and is generally slow, to be fast on this particular problem since they happen to have studied that before or have exposure to it.
You can also imagine the opposite someone who is really fast at thinking and has experience, but they haven't looked at binary trees in 10 years so they may be slow thinking about a particular subject.

You should care about memory safety in any language. The point is to reduce bugs and have more maintainable code, that doesn't introduce memory errors when something is changed. Or when making something concurrent.
Now of course if you use a garbage collected language, then you aren't in control of memory, so it's less of an issue. But if you are using C++ for high performance applications such as gaming, then you are in control of it and need memory safety.

Producing food makes more sense. Certain types of food is very cheap. Housing and real estate though, it seems is much more expensive and difficult to provide.

It's possible someone got excessive burping a month let's say after they recovered from covid. How do we know those events are related? In a month all kinds of medical problems could happen in a sample size of 90,000 or w/e the amount was, that could be completely unrelated.

Enough people are addicted to coffee so much so that even if they are anxious while drinking it they continue to do so.

This reminds me of my gym membership. They said I had to come in person to cancel it instead of by phone. So I cancelled my credit card naively thinking that my gym membership would be cancelled. After a few months I get letters and calls from a collection agency demanding the monthly payments and an additional late fee of $100

It looks like he played the game one week before the experiment, during it, and after three days of recovery and did not find a significant difference
