Also, strange to bring up name order at all when it has nothing to do with the joke they presented.

It makes me wonder if they badly retold a joke they heard where the original punchline was that his name was Mario Itsumi.

In Japan, Itsumi is actually a common name, either as a family name or as a girl’s given name.

Also what’s with the circle around women vs. the triangle around men? Is this some meaningful gender related symbolism that I’m unaware of?

I forget where I heard it from, but somebody said that it’s strange how we believe that if we go back in time and make a small change, it will have a huge effect on the future, but we also believe that making small changes today won’t make any difference in the future.

This does look like it was printed on the kumquat. I don’t know whether it’s the case here, but this sort of thing sometimes happens when there is something printed on a bag or the plastic that food is wrapped in, and the ink can get transferred to the food.

If you’ve been to Reddit since the API meltdown, it’s pretty clear that large sections of it were fucked by angry moderators, and still remain that way. I don’t think the fediverse was ready to take over, but Reddit very clearly has fewer people working for them for free.

Specifically, there are several subreddits where they used to be strict about submissions, and now they let anything mildly related in.

I’m honestly pretty surprised that they still haven’t recovered. At this point, I’m hoping that their mediocrity will continue to push people away until Lemmy can catch up.

Also, any number whose digits sum to a multiple of 3 is divisible by 3. For 51, 5+1=6, and 6 is a multiple of 3, so 51 can be cleanly divided by 3.

“logicians” do not exist

Well, then, what would you call a professor of logic?

This is a good point, but I’ll move the goalposts very slightly and suggest that human brains are capable of wanting something without knowing that they want something. For example, if you say you don’t know whether you want a beer, and then the person next to you orders a beer, then at that moment, you might realize that you really did want a beer before.

For this joke to logically work, logicians must be weird people who always know whether they want a beer or not. Because if it happened that the first guy just hadn’t made his mind up yet, then the third guy’s conclusion could be wrong.

If anything, they feel more confident, unencumbered by experience or the truth.
