I haven’t seen that, any examples?

I don’t why they’d change that either, just because they don’t know the origin, they still grew up knowing it meant “save.”

That movie was criticized because it was on the nose, but if there’s one thing the last 20 years has thought me its that there may have been a time for subtle implications, subtext, and understatement, but it’s long over.

If you aren’t screaming it, they won’t hear you and even if they hear you they won’t do anything…

“we’re all looking for the guy who did this”

I’m so used to ignoring who tweets are from that I didn’t notice till you mentioned it and scrolled back up, lol

As someone with a problematic relationship with alcohol, from a family of the same, i get addiction, but I don’t get gambling. The way it’s become normalized by society is so weird to me.

when the aliens arrive, and kill our leaders, I will write them a letter that says “what about their kids?”

But the underground society seemed to be more about finding their own version of freedom rather than outright exclusion.

In a world with super aids they still wanted to raw dog it.

there’s no paywall, there’s a donation ask, but you can just close it.

But the jump to 1080p was much less noticeable, to the point that people just thought its no different than 720p.

What!?

Unless it’s animated and even then depending on the art style, I can immediately clock the difference between 1080 and 720. It is another huge leap.

1080 to 4k though when sitting on the couch are basically the same.

Just don’t give the TV your wifi password, boom dumb TV.

So they’re evil for catering to their customers?

If you don’t like that in movies don’t watch their movies…

it’s the current champion, he won the legs. The others are the top ten fighting for who gets to wear them next.

People are stupid, any system that fails to take that into account and mitigate it is doomed to frustration and failure…

writing it this way does not somehow enable it to make “more” sense than the first way

it does because people read (and therefore do math) left to right. it makes more sense because it accounts for the fact that most people know how to read, but don’t know the operational order of math equations.

We’re just going in circles, so let’s just agree to disagree.

Those sentence are also perfectly understandable, once you’ve understood the order of the words, but they’re written in such away that you have to think about it.

If there are multiple ways to do things and one is more accessible to most people with less effort that isn’t the objectively right way but it is better.

It’s obviously not just myself as posting out of order math problems are a constant source of online engagement.

Do you remember how this reply thread started? I literally fixed the equation so that it would be less confusing to people, I couldn’t do that if I didn’t know what order it was meant to go in…

I’m just not assuming that people are stupid because they got tripped up by something designed to trip them up.

It’s writing like this with math, you can find the sentence structure, but it makes it a puzzle people will mess up unnecessarily

Because this it’s trivial to write it in a way that won’t cause this confusion and yet every 3 months or so someone posts another one of these gotcha no context given equations and we as the internet have this same discussion again and again. It’s bait…

it’s mean in that they intentionally wrote it to trip people up so we’d have this very conversion…

This was literally written for twitter content…

The operational order is fucked, the way I rewrote is more readable, even if you remember the order. The only reason you’d write the equation like that is to be mean, there’s no reason to write it like that unless you’re trying to trip people up.
