  • Same procedure as last year?

  • When I say, this is a free country, I don't say anything goes.

  • You can have thoughts about beds in the shower as well. This is a free country

  • This took me far longer than I'm willing to admit

  • And that's your right but it won't change reality

  • Tupperware is a deonym by now

    Lamarck moment

    Jump
  • Lamarck wasn't the first to come up with a theory of evolution and Darwin wasn't right about the mechanism.

    Charles Darwin's grandfather already had a theory of evolution and arguably, even he wasn't the first.

    Charles Darwin wasn't aware of genes. His idea of inheritance was basically the same as Lamarck's. Only when Darwin and Mendel were combined, the "modern" theory of evolution was born, the "new synthesis" or something it's called.

    The reason we single out these two isn't that one was first and one was right, neither was. It's because of the Great Man of History idea. We could talk about Wallace, how he was on the same path as Darwin but Darwin published first to outcompete him. But we don't because we like to believe in great thinkers who singlehandedly changed the world.

  • Picard: "There are five points!"

  • But Klingons and Romulans actually are different. The Monty Python joke is that swallows are migrating birds so the difference between European swallows and African ones isn't a difference in species or at least individuals but season. They live in summer in Europe and in winter in Africa.

    Or am I missing the joke and Romulans and Klingons use the same ships for some reason?

  • What was the quote about being famous for 15 minutes?

  • The German word is Gesetzesübertreter(in). I looked it up because, while fluent in English, I wasn't sure.

  • All rules and laws are always open to interpretation and arbitrary. I heard that in a presentation by a historian of jurisprudence. She said that many people think that national law is clear but international isn't but neither is. All can be (and are) used by the rich and powerful. Not only do they lobby in the process of the creation of laws but also in their enforcement.

  • Theyre present in both languages

    What do you mean? They are present in both Icelandic and Faroese but extinct in English.

    it's not some extinct character

    Well, in English it is.
