To anyone thinking, “We surived one term of Trump. How bad can another one be?”

Very bad, as John Oliver points out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYwqpx6lp_s

I’m sure that’s a study in psychology about how survey results are significantly better with dog pictures just waiting to be written.

10% false positives is an enormous rate given how Police like to ‘find’ evidence and ‘elicit’ confessions.

LaTeX is soo great! You don’t have to worry about formatting ever again.

Puts image I’m talking about 8 pages away from the section that talks about the image

Writes not only over the margin, but over the goddamn page boundary because adding a page was not fashionable that day

Moves a table left by 1 cm on every other compilation, moves it back in the other compilations (happened to a colleague)

So instead of worrying about formatting you worry about learning the incantations that force LaTeX at gunpoint not to fuck up the formatting.

Hey, IT, I imported this data set twice, and now there are a lot of duplicates. Is there something wrong with the tool?

– Yes, that happened.

Döner Kebab isn’t even a Turkish specialty. In Turkey, Döner (referring to the meat that turns) is served on a plate with salad and bread. It’s not fast food like the German Döner Kebab, and it’s not meant to be taken to go.

Döner Kebab was invented in Germany by a Turkish immigrant whose traditional Döner didn’t fare well, because Germans were always in a hurry.

Or so the story goes that I heard in a documentary on German TV about 15 years ago.
