  • well, I can only speak from my own experience. I forget the exact prescription but my eyes were also slightly off so one was worse than the other and neither was perfect.

    Idk if it’s just that significant or if it’s having them align but it made tree leaves just look individual and pop for me. I was staring at every tree and saying how they look so cool and it was only later that I learned this common tree meme among people who get glasses.


  • I paid for eye insurance when I first landed a “real” job that has benefits and got an eye check up and the optometrist was like “you’re just barely off from 20/20, not really even a prescription” and i was like oh geez what a waste of time.

    And then I put on the pair of glasses and it was like this. Just every tree looked magical.





  • food is a big part of every culture and it is something everyone has to deal with several times a day. That already brings in a lot of opportunities where someone’s diet is relevant to conversation. And, veganism goes beyond diet. I don’t think they necessarily do it on purpose, you probably don’t notice how often you bring up specifically the opposite of veganism.


  • I had pretty terrible math education in school but as an adult I’ve gotten into programming and making video games and every time I learn a math concept I think “wow, math is even cooler than I thought” but the main part stopping me from learning some concepts is not having a practical example.

    I vaguely know differentiation and integration… I think it might be the correct way to describe things like determining/applying acceleration to an object over time… but when I read your description I really don’t understand…

    I think that’s in general what I run into with math. it’s cool and amazing when I get it, but a lot of the descriptions of concepts have a lot of assumptions about the reader sometimes to the point where to understand the description you’d have to already understand the concept.

    I’ve found whenever people complain about rust code they can only point out how it’s different but not why it’s worse and I can usually point to a reason why it’s better.

    to be fair, I get sometimes it’s difficult to pinpoint why something is bad and even “being different” can be a legitimate criticism on its own








  • don’t get me wrong, I agree. Furthermore, despite the problems with apps like TikTok, I do think there’s an incredible amount of amazing content created on that platform. It can be such a showcase of the creativity of the average person, it just sucks that it’s pretty objectively terrible in multiple ways.
