Hypersonic and hyper agile don’t really go together. The laws of physics, particularly inertia and friction, will quickly put an end to that fantasy.
Yay! You got it! 😀
Ah, software developing nerds and expertsexchange. A story as old as time.
It starts with innocent questions, then thigh highs during long coding sessions and… you know the rest. It’s all in the name! 😅
Uh-oh! We might have a STUCK NMI ERROR on our hands here.
It’s a nod to something the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard wrote in his essay The Precession of the Simulacra.
His entire work revolves around Simulacra, copies of real things that end up replacing reality until eventually the copy is the reality, with no original that it is derived from.
One of his inspirations in the aforementioned essay is a short story by Jose Luis Borges about a king who orders his mapmakers to draw him the most accurate map ever, which ends up being in 1:1 scale. An obviously nonsensical exercise, much like Mr. Rashed’s endeavor to replace his actual background with an identical copy just to prove a point.
Well hello there Mr. Baudrillard. Are we drawing 1:1 scale maps again?
The sheet is not the only thing that has been muddied in this questionable example. The cow is NOT where he thinks it is and therefore he does NOT have knowledge of it being there. It’s near where he thinks it is but that distinction makes all the difference in the world.
Also there’s a whole slew of problems arising from the way our cognition interprets sensory information. For instance, our eyes enable us to see light in various colors and intensities but they arguably don’t see objects (or subjects). In that sense we cannot hold JTB about cows, anyway, because even as a farmer we cannot be sure we’ve ever seen one.
(Never mind the next problem, which is that even our sensory facilities might be corrupted by color blindness, myopia, etc…)

I once met someone who had caught it through aerosolized mouse feces while out in nature and almost died. Apparently his R/C helicopter had caused the contagious dust to spread and he inhaled it.

Stop framing it as a dichotomy.

Aach, the missed chance of not placing the entire thing above a dude for the picture.

In all earnest, rapprochement between Germany and France was one of the greatest things to happen in European history.

Grumman: Done.
Yes, and they’re…fine?






Na endlich! Es gibt viel zu viele Menschen, die ihr Einkommen mit dem Sammeln von Pfandflaschen bestreiten und dies nicht in ihrer Einkommensteuererklärung angeben. Zeit, diesen steuerhinterziehenden Sozialschmarotzern zu zeigen, wo bei der CDU der Hammer hängt!
