Thank you for sharing your wonderful story. The prelude triggered a lot of emotions and memories from my own past.

Math Academy looks very enticing!

Extremely slow and sluggish. Ironic to have UI library's website not entice you with itself...

Indeed, things have changed about a year ago.

Here is a small blogpost by WotC: https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/revitalizing...

People aren’t divided into “most likely to be tricked” and “least likely to be tricked”.

When you generate “photos” of Big Ben burning and throw it on Twitter, you will grab the attention of many more Londoners than you could with a random image of a burning house or whatever, many of which would at least take the time to verify. Just look at the Balenciaga Pope images.

By grabbing the attention of those you are essentially stepping into the realms of “historical alternations”.

Now imagine it was anything but an American (or allying) company. Oooo, much scarier.

Fishing traps are actually considered cultural and historical items in the region.

I am from Kuwait and this is the first time I read about desert kites. I am now interested to find out if they have history here.

If you are interested, fishing traps are called gargoor (قرقور)[0][1].

I am assuming the article is contrasting the long periods of nomadic lifestyle that ruled over Arabia with the more stationary society suggested by the existence of those mustatils.

As for the heads of the cattle, I can easily imagine the mustatils to be some sort of combination farm-market where you would kill the cattle, burry the head, and give the rest to the consumer who would take it far away to their dwelling or on their journey if they happen to be nomadic; leading to random distribution of the rest of the carcass pieces.

Not sure if you consider Finland a Scandinavian country, but they have handheld sprays installed next to all toilets specifically to wash their butts.

You can’t just solve everything by “building”.

Build too much, and you end up with depleted resources, non-environmental solutions, and outdated artefacts.

Recycling is surely an option, but it should be the fallback, not the default.

While the current crisis could’ve been handled better, it is not at all badly handled. Nature is much stronger than us, and the fact that we are not totally screwed after over four months since the outbreak is impressive.

Over building hospitals for the next pandemic sounds inefficient to me.

What makes this piece so captivating? Despite the length, I can never start it without finishing it.

Anything with similar magic but a different tone?

Yeah, it's a compatibility issue. I can scroll to the right of the page, and see white space, with the flags moving.

Pressing enter with either textfield selected doesn't do anything on Safari.

Firefox and Chrome work perfectly fine.

EDIT: I didn't dig deep, but changing the "marquee" width from 3000px to 100vw, fixed it, but made the flags slower.

Bless your soul, lukehero, you are a hero!

On macOS Safari Version 11.1.2 (13605.3.8), I can scroll horizontally (it's cute, I can see all the flags coming) and I can't really search the website. I put in values, hit return, and nothing happens. Works amazingly on Chrome.

I feel like all people would be "sexually fluid" without social pressure. If a person can reach sexual gratification with nothing but their own fist, they can do it with anyone else's.

I don't think attraction is exclusive to physical appearance or genitalia.

I have been badly taught Java at university (not sure if the course sucked, or I did, but I am a blunder) and have just found myself drawn into the JS world. I really enjoy the concepts of OO, but I feel like my knowledge is very shallow.

Is it good if I rebuild my foundation on JS? I feel like JS is a bit, uh, messy.

Could you recommend a remedy for someone who's spent a great chunk of their programming experience in misdirection?

I have only recently realised that my terrible misunderstanding of programming is slowing me a lot.
