A series of Mr Beans peeking at the previous Mr Bean's answers, except the answers are the evolution of the letter A from Egyptian hieroglyphics that's a cow's head to the Latin letter A.

I think you're getting twisted up looking at the expected value as unchanged and thinking that implies an expectation of an unchanging value.

Not the case, just the case that weighted average of possible next steps offset each other

There are so many things to comment on, but this one drives me crazy. In business and life, how you speak to someone matters. Calling people names and talking down is the easiest way to signal you’re an ineffective leader. And justifying it signals something far worse.

To be fair: a sudden recession is probably net-deflationary!

My father-in-law is a customs official.

He is insanely gifted.

We were looking at a banana together a few days ago and I asked him what it would cost to import it today.

I will never forget his answer… 'We can’t, we don’t know how to do it.'

My most millennial trait might be my utter inability to rely on a car's backup camera. As soon as I put a car in reverse my hand jumps to the back of the passenger seat and I'm looking out the back window before I realize it

Best Ghibli movie. Not an easy one for kids to "get", though

For those of you discovering Ghibli for the first time and wondering what it is:

it’s an influential genre of horror movies pioneered by an Italian director

A strikingly colorful duck glides across the water, its plumage displaying an intricate mix of orange, white, blue, and green. The bird's head features a bold contrast of white and deep chestnut hues, with a bright red beak adding to its vibrant appearance. Delicate, fan-like feathers extend from the sides of its face, framing its dark, alert eyes. The wings are adorned with a mix of black, white, and iridescent blue, while two upright, golden-brown feathers curve elegantly from its back.

nostalgia is remembering when you didn’t have to pay bills and attributing that feeling to mario

It felt disrespectful of the audience's time imo. Second season struggled a lot with pacing compared to first and starting to feel like they're just dragging things out to keep the show going even though character motivations etc feel more contrived and so on. I'm probably not watching S3

I like this bird.

It's *not* AI generated, it's a White-throated kingfisher.
