It devolved into fantasy by 2/3 of the way through. I mean, imagine telling every billionaire on earth that the new currency will reduce their wealth to $50M or whatever it was. Everyone involved would be dead by midnight. The one thing the wealthy are genuinely good at is hanging on to wealth.

I loved this series so much:

Oh come on. Grass (1925)? Still to this day one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. In 1925 it was groundbreaking.

One way to make the (x-h) shift more natural is to move the k to the other side of the equation. So if the parent function is y=f(x), don't make the shifted function y=f(x-h)+k. Make it y-k=f(x-h), then you're using the same rule for both axes. Once it's clear you can move the k around as needed.

Fill it with spices and stick in in the cavity of a roasting pig?

I did not know that! Thanks. I agree with the comment below, there needs to be a way to collapse a thread, but this is still a big improvement on "flat by design" discussion spaces

There are a few "power users" modding the big subs who are often not acting in good faith. The site is still the best discussion site on the web IMO, but still. I live in fear that it's going to be taken over the way twitter was. You could buy off 20 power mods and ruin the site.

Threaded discussions are also just better, IMO. I like bsky, but reddit and usenet have hosted far deeper and more interesting discussions for me than twitter or any flat discussion site ever has.

As a redditor, agreed.

Not to be all serious or anything but when Harvey flooded Houston the best place to get info clearly and fast was the reddit thread. There's one here for the LA fires:
