I would have so much money if I didn't need to spend money.

Hi folks,

Just a quick reminder that August's & is:

- *tomorrow*: Tuesday 22nd!
- at Brewhouse and Kitchen in Central Milton Keynes (close to the theatre, *not* to be mixed up with the Midsummer Tap which is very close and has "pub and kitchen" on the sign!).
- From 7pm

Bringing yourself is an absolute must, and any , , , , , , or are encouraged but completely optional.

If you're able to let me know if you're intending to come I'd appreciate it, otherwise just turn up. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

See you there,

Tom

How is it that "height" and "weight" don't rhyme? 🤔

Really interesting article. A lot of it goes over my poor D math student head. But I get the gist. It's about how far you can take approximations at different scales. If you're only going short distances, the earth is flat. Works at least as well as measuring distances by paces or "day's journey," etc. But it raised a lot of even trippier questions...

Question for math knowers from a guy who got D's in math:

Does math live in us or do we live in math?

I've always maintained that every step is a prayer.... but now my company is offering to pay me $20 each month that I walk 10,000 steps on a minimum of 12 days. I've accepted the challenge, signed myself up , but does that mean now that my prayers are impermissible or m'vutal? Surely it cannot be kosher to allow myself to be paid for prayer?

Uf certain things are described as being “out of whack,” that implies that other things must be “in to whack.” Of course the big question is, what is “whack?” And where is it?

Takie zmiany języka w trakcie pisania, e.g. english interjections, muszą być kiepskim user experiance dla userów czytników ekranu.
Czytnik przecież nie wie, że się zmienia język i czyta obcojęzyczne wyrazy po literce. Dlatego chyba takie łatdefak jest przyjaźniejsze niż what the fuck.
