I'd rather have a future than pay 5% less for whatever it is I currently want

I don't see why it matters though? You're not gonna be playing the game on your phone with limited data

No, trams are amazing. They're trains but on bus-stop scale. Perfect for transport across the core of a city

I think it's probably because the culinary terms are feel based, while the scientific terms are more rigorously defined, and thus ends up describing different things, because nothing properly fits for the culinary feels-based definitions

Well, fair, it's gonna differ location to location. Though I want to specify that I don't live in the US, I live in Oslo, Norway

The discords I'm in barely even contains gamers. Most of them are local trans spaces. Would it surprise you if I told you that I barely play video games with the people I've met on discord, and mostly spend time with them by meeting up in-person?

Dating apps have shitty incentives because they have a profit motive, and they don't earn money from you finding people, but from keeping you on the app and maybe even making you desperate. Although hookup apps still work fine I suppose

Then there's the whole problem of how dating apps work with swiping and superficial judging of people

I love this video so much

A browser, which is like the prime attack vector for malware and other nasty stuff, having direct memory access is so hilarious in hindsight

These days you try to sandbox everything as much as possible in the browser since the internet is like the least trusted environment there is

For whats it's worth, I'm also trans, and I don't use dating apps. Everyone I met that I got involved with sexually or romantically has been either through making friends on discord or meeting friends of friends

Dating apps have a lot of shitty incentives, I won't go into the details right now, but there's a lot to dislike about them

There's other places to meet people than work or clubs

Indeed, and the reason why I think the incompleteness theorems are the nail in the coffin, is that otherwise you could at least prove that certain sets of axioms worked together, then you'd have some basis for the math you use, even if it was self-referential

But it turns out that is impossible, and what we choose as our foundation for the math we use is pretty much arbitrary. Although of course we have reasons to use what we use

Godel's second theory of incompleteness states that a formal system cannot prove its own consistency

I think that's as close as you can get to "math is not objective"
