We need to get rid of cars, the sooner the better. Whether self-driving, electric, or a combination of those, they are the worst transportation method for most use-cases, only used because they are the most profitable for the capitalist and seem immediately convenient for the user, resulting in a double tragedy-of-commons situation.

The whole thing seemed to be engineered for drama, and the "results" that most people got out of it are an exceptionally clickbaity oversimplification of what's going on. It's like that numberphile thing with 1 + 2 + 3 + ...

It's also more complicated than the lightbulb just "turning on faster than the electric field could travel through the wire", in fact (depending on the exact circumstances) the initial current would be tiny, probably not enough to meaningfully "light" the lightbulb, and only after the light-speed delay would it ramp up to full-brightness.

Electric field obviously travels in all directions, but the electrons which produce fluctuations in the electric field, and propagate those fluctuations through mutual interactions, are constrained to the wire. Hence unless your wires are so close together as to basically be connected to each other, air significantly attenuates the electric field wave propagation. This is a reproduction of the experiment and an in-depth explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Vrhk5OjBP8 .

I still watch his videos sometimes because it can be quite entertaining/thought-provoking, but for the past 5-7 years a lot of them are clickbaity sponsored stuff, and you really need to mentally skip a lot of bullshit to get to the nugget of value.

I know I'm a bit different because I usually enjoy cooking, but in my experience there's no way to get around experimenting for yourself and building up the "mental image" of how much stuff you have to mix together for everything to work well. Every time I tried following an online recipe it came out wrong in one way or another and I had to learn how adjust for the ingredients and even cookware I have available.

As for your question: for pancakes, I'd say soy milk is my choice, maybe add a bit of extra vegetable oil compared to the regular recipe. If you're into coconut flavor, then coconut milk would be ideal in terms of texture, but it will overpower everything else taste-wise. Almond milk will probably taste the best but the texture is usually quite dry.

The "establishment" democrats are the american conservatives.

Nah, honestly, I think stuffing an entire computer inside a monitor and relying on it to generate/show content is a bad idea no matter what software it runs. A dumb TV + a small computing dongle requires only a tiny fraction more labor to produce than a smart TV, but it's so much easier to upgrade in the future if you decide you need faster boot times or wanna game on the TV, etc. And if the TV breaks before the dongle does, you can also buy a new TV and keep all your settings/media without transferring anything.

Ah, it's not the best for cases like that, especially if you need to make different layouts all the time. You can get it to do anything with enough packages and positioning hints, but at some point it becomes too much of a chore. If you just need a dozen of layouts and then fill them out with different content, it's doable.

I haven't seen any WYSIWYG document editors that are any good. Markdown/Org for simpler stuff, L^A^T~E~X for more complicated stuff, or mix them together with pandoc.

I don't think so, but then again it's a long and dense video and I might have missed something

That's exactly what I'm talking about.

I do agree with you that most likely he did it. But that doesn't necessarily make him guilty. Everyone in the jury pool needs to understand that simple fact, the guilty/not guilty verdict is ultimately decided by the jury and not by the facts nor the law.

I'm not enough of a fan to look up other social media, I just occasionally watch some of his videos on topics that are interesting to me. But that's great to hear!

Good, I think? I mean, there is a capitalist aspect to it (immigrants are often cheap labor) but also this should help them gain job protection and minimum wages and such, at least preventing overexploitation. Overall I think it's a long-term win both for the people of Spain and the immigrants.
