Also fine, but I guess what I was trying to express is that memes have existed forever and any claim that this is the “first” one is just silly.

“the first memes” yeah right

I think they’re just toys in God’s creep collection

Why would some people be sent to heaven, though?

Yes, there is a lot of research about it and you can go really wild with it. Bottom line is, if you try to reduce the total amount of time you spend sleeping, your body will use the time as much as possible for regeneration. You’ll have a harder time memorizing new things. But basic modes of sleeping mostly during the night with a nap during the day or so are completely normal and unproblematic.

Welcome to 2015 I guess?

A two-party system is not necessarily worse than a multy-party system. They both have their flaws. Just as one example, party programs in multi-party systems such as in Germany are not worth the paper they are written on, because after the election the parties will go into negotiations and come up with an entirely different program. With two parties, at least you know what you vote for.

This is a great lecture on the topic with much more depth to it:

January and February were added later to push each numbered month to 2 off

The reason for this being that at the beginning of the year, some government officials changed posts, including the ones responsible for the military. March is when the weather becomes nice, so you can go to war again (hence the name). But since March also marked the new year, the people responsible for war management just took office, which was not ideal. So they pushed the two months in to give them some time to prepare before sending out the military everywhere.

Fun times!

What do you do with the reclaimed land?

What do you do with the hill?

What do you do with the massive pile of earth you have to dig up to make space for all the plastic?

So, what do you do with it instead?

Why is it that whenever I click on a post to comment something someone else already had the same thought and posted it and got 5 likes for it?

No, I remember the time when people went all “he’s like the next Steve Jobs!” and meant that in a good way

It’s a good one (Signal as well, though). My favorite design decision was to tie it into the email ecosystem, so if anyone tries to block it, they will have to block email, which their business buddies won’t be happy about.
