  • The one I was thinking of is the (hypothesized) reduction in jaw size due to less need for powerful chewing, while teeth stayed the same size leading to many problems

  • agriculture and its consequences (maybe)

  • It's based on a survey with ~400 responses, and 50% of the responders are in some way affiliated with the surveyer (no information about any methodology is available, it seems more of a marketing stunt than a "serious" survey of the landscape)

  • fairly sure hezbollah has more than 2800 members

  • bonus points if you're using a statically typed language but the library uses extensive metaprogramming seemingly for the sole purpose of hiding what types you actually need

  • I think the problems there are exacerbated a lot by over-eager type coercion and other crappy design decisions inherited from almost 30 years ago

  • but sometimes "👍🏽".reverse() == "🏽👍"

  • are you sure there isn't small print somewhere saying you forfeit your eternal soul to larry ellison?

  • It is a message that there is no smoke without fire. The "intellectual" (note the glasses) has a seemingly convincing argument, but is shown to be a fool. The suspicion of sinful, non-procreational sex (notice the falling leaves, which do not play a reproductive role in trees) turns out to be true.

    This belief in smoke without fire feeds into the conservative tenets of anti-intellectualism, the tendency to assume guilt based on prejudice and fuels paranoid conspiracy theories. It is also a meta-dog whistle confirming that yes, those other dog whistles the comic uses are really what you think and not just coincidental.
