This is entirely correct actually. Number of items on day n = (13 - n)*n

It’s gonna be a fine, swell day!

I was always told people with a long second toe have dominant personalities

As you should. 50k for a base level electric vehicle with no physical buttons is a scam

Ford solved the price parity problem. Just make all cars cost 50k. Brilliant

That’s actually really clever!

It’s not just a sale. Gift card money is invested and the company makes returns off of it, and all they have to do is provide you the base value of the gift card in coffee or whatever at some later date. Plus, if your purchases don’t add to a whole number, millions of gift cards with like 30 cents left over in each of them is a ton of free money for the company. Gift cards are a huge scam

Really? It’s not from some kind of treatise on utilitarianism? That seems unlikely

Although, electron affinity is a thing… so the analogy does break down pretty quick. Rip

I’ve never really liked the anthropomorphic description of chemical bonding, but maybe it’s actually similar to the addition thing. On the one hand, we can say 9 wants to resolve to 10 and takes a 1, and on the other hand we could say there are a bunch of different ways we could rearrange these numbers but the end result is the same as if we resolve 9 to 10 first. Maybe chemical reactions are similar, so there’s a bunch of configurations that could have happened, but the end result is the same as if we had said fluorine wants that last electron

The second method is very chemistry-like. I do that too naturally

This requires the legs to be all the same height and the floor to cause the wobble. That doesn’t happen often irl, but I’ve done it a few times and it always makes me happy when it works

I, for one, am a fan of speech around a table! It’s intriguing but low stress!

The center wall that separates the windows is larger on the inside than the outside. Fun

I love her expression. “I’m in the fucking panopticon again. Great 😓”

A remarkable example of a non-Hermitian operator

If that ain’t the name of a New York police chief from the 80s with Polish heritage, I don’t know what is

Looks like they are using a Prio based protocol. If they are using Prio2+, I think this article is likely overblown. EDIT: I mixed up my sources - Mozilla tested Prio for telemetry collection. They are using a system called IPA for ads, and I don’t know whether there are formal guarantees for this system

Does Firefox explain what measures they’ve taken to protect their aggregation servers? If so, this is a perfectly fine and practical method for privacy preservation
