Ich habe nicht gesagt, dass es anderswo nicht auch Probleme hat.

Allerdings neigt man sowohl von aussen die guten als auch schlechten Dinge nicht realistisch zu sehen.

Es ist schön eine komplexe Entscheidung

AfD alleine regierend halte ich für sehr unwahrscheinlich. Aber wenn dann CxU/AfD.

Ich werde ernsthaft über emigrieren nachdenken und überlegen wohin und wie. An demos teilnehmen sowieso.

Yeah, but stereotypically speaking. If the diagram says physicists, engineers and mathaticians are all single, then programmer better also be.

[–] swnt@feddit.de 25 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Wait, that means that programmers are NOT single? 😂

I think something is missing there

That's why scihub is so popular

Wow, this is so well articulated and to the point.

The example with gravity is interesting indeed. We have only acceleration sensors behind our ears, but our body notices the pressure of the body tissue pressing down towards the gravity. And obviously, we also feel gravity when moving.

However, the difference to magnetism is, that we frankly don't have any contact with magnets during our evolution - except for the earth's magnetic field.

Even if we are able to sense it, it's definitely far from being able to reliably feel it like we do for gravity.

Good point! 😄

We also don't have any feeling of how that's like!

Finally mens nipples get something to be useful at.

I vote for mens liberation and rights for magnetic nipples!

Fair point, but then, most people don't have this.

And even if you do it, you need to get some experience for your brain to develop a model of what to expect in certain situations. For instance, your brain will need some time to get used to the fact, that putting our hand on a fridge will give the brain new sensory stimuli because of the magnets on the fridge.

This intuitive understanding of light and sound is just that - brain neurons being used to what to expect. And even with an implant you would need to train that.

Though I'm definitely curious to experience once how that would feel like 😄

[–] swnt@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fair point, I didn't know about that. But even then, most of us don't feel like we can feel it - and in the modern city living spaces it gets even less important to train such a sense.

I have to disagree there regardless of how one interprets "know".

If you mean "know intuitively", then we don't, precisely because we have no sensors for it and hence no experience with it. We intuitively know light, because we sense it and know what to expect in a closed room with no light source.

If you mean it scientifically, then light and magnets are extensively studied and far from "know nothing about it". Our knowledge of light, magnetism and sound is very good on all levels.
