argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Science Memes@mander.xyz•How My Day Is Going [Tom Gauld]English39·7 months agoFinding a worm inside is better than finding half of it.
What about our tentacle sizes? We have four that try to divide in a total of twenty, but they fail to develop. Some have even another one, but it can vary drastically in size among the population.
It bothers me that FAR is near what’s usually the zero and NEAR is, well, far.

This is beautiful, it’s poetry.
argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Parents with bilingual children, how did you do it?2·1 year agoQuebec was a French colony, they lost a big war, they hate the monarchy and dream of independence from Britain and the English part of Canada.
argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Parents with bilingual children, how did you do it?4·1 year agoThey try everything so people keep speaking in French. They force kids to go to French schools and reduced the places in English schools. They’ve had teachers and monitors forcing kids to speak in French even during recess. Of course it doesn’t work and kids will speak in whatever language they want, mainly English.
argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Parents with bilingual children, how did you do it?39·1 year agoI have a little bit of experience in this. Brazilian living in Quebec. So, my friends almost always spoke in Portuguese with their children, school and TV were in French. After some time, school starts also to teach English and they chose the language of the TV. Now the kids are almost always speaking in English, although the are fluent in Portuguese and, of course, French.
Now, my wife and I hated the TV in French, so we kept it in English. So, my kids had to deal with three languages from the start. They mixed everything up and we screwed up by saying words in all three languages. We speak mainly Portuguese but we would use words that they learned in other languages in those languages instead of in Portuguese. In the end, my kids mix all three languages in a single sentence, which is weird as hell. They’re slowly separating the languages and we too. Now, every sentence we speak is in a single language. Their friends help in a way, because they also speak French in class but English outside (and Quebec’s government hates that).
So, if both of you are Portuguese speakers, I’d only speak Portuguese with them and let the TV and school teach English. They’ll know how to keep things separated.

At work, Windows XP,7 and 10, and several versions and flavors of RHEL.
I like to collect things like this and use on FB when someone comes with that “nature is beautiful” crap.
But the dung beetle pushes the poop ball with its back legs.

argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there any tool for incremental backup for MySQL to s3 for production usage?1·2 years agoMy experience: regular snapshots plus binlogs being copied to another ec2. So, depending on the retention of the snapshots and logs, I can do a Point In Time Recovery to any second in the last N days. In my case, I set for 2 days. I don’t send anything to S3.

I downloaded The Last Wish in PDF I think, but I forgot I had bought the book. After a spring cleaning I found a second copy of the book I had bought.
argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Probably a stupid question, but will we ever have something like a microwave to make things cold? Is there a reason this can't exist?7·2 years agoProbably to disrupt the temperature gradient that forms around the can. That’s why we blow air on though the top of a hot drink to cool it faster.
argh_another_username@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Probably a stupid question, but will we ever have something like a microwave to make things cold? Is there a reason this can't exist?145·2 years agoThere’s something called blast freezer, which is basically a freezer with fans inside, like what convection ovens have. It cools down food much faster than a standard freezer.
Is this a reference to The Wall?
