Townsends has a video on flips. He might have used a historical word for it.

Your logic is correct, but you are off by 1.

0-1 is year 1
10-11 is year 11

ELI5 answer?

In the conventional calendar, there wasn’t a year zero and it wasn’t skipped. Zero is the moment in time that we use to begin counting time.

Think of an elementary school style number line: …-3_-2_-1_0_1_2_3… Each number is one year apart. This makes the numbers measure something like Age. If you are 3 years old, you can count 3 years between 0 and 3.

But a year is not an Age. It is the span of time between ages, and the years we name are actually the spaces between the numbers on the number line. So the first year (1 AD/CE) is the first space after zero (between 0 and 1), and the first negative year (1 BC/BCE) is the first space before the 0 (between -1 and 0).

Then there is the astronomical calendar, which does have a year zero. They get this by naming the year (the space on the number line) after the number to the right side of the space on the number line.

Again?

Totally normal. 21 was your last milestone, 22 was your first year of “I’m older than 21.” Everything after that will be fuzzy except for the decade milestones and maybe the half decade ones.

Eventually, either the boulder or the hill will erode enough that the task will be trivial.

Something interesting enough to you to keep your attention to stop your mind from wandering and working itself into a tizzy, but not so intense or dynamic as to keep you up thinking about it.

I like to listen to The Empty Bowl and a couple other podcasts at 70% speed. There are even podcasts out there, like Sleep With Me, specifically meant to help you doze off.

A bunch of posts are saying see a GP and/or Psychiatrist, and absolutely do that. But also make sure you have a working carbon monoxide detector in your home (you should have one anyway). This vaguely reminds me of that one Reddit post.

My favorite marvel series.

But not syntax it is.
Grammar it is.

1. “But syntax, it is not”
2. Syntax is the part of grammar that governs word order.
   Correct, @lugal is.

Also, HD is 720p. Other than that the joke is great.

Sorbitol and xylitol are common sugar alcohols used in gums and gummies. Sorbitol is naturally occurring in fruits in varying amounts, and, in conjunction with fiber, contributes to the medicinal effects of prunes and prune juice.

I was just looking at a photo of the time yesterday. In it were around 15 people. Of those 15:

• ≈8 were wearing prescription aviators
• ≈4 were wearing aviator sunglasses
• ≈3 weren’t wearing any glasses
• 0 were wearing a different style of glasses

Side note: the person who showed me the photo was the only one in it still alive. He was ≈35 when it was taken. Probably the youngest by far of the group.

Do you have a source on that? I hadn’t seen any news to that effect that didn’t start with “Hamas Claims:”, and I can’t seem to dig anything up.

Bread and Butter pickles have sugar added, so theres calories at least

Imagine a food shortage so bad that the nutritional value of the leather in the upholstery of your car is worth more than the cost of the car in good times.

Well, duhh!

All the devs are working on Wayland now.

Definitely satanic. It’s a camouflaged Square & Compass. Your girl and her bestie have joined the Freemasons!

I like Tederick, and Billomena
