    @Fulano01 Oh no! Humans act like Humans. In other news: Water is wet.

    GATE - Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri - Ch. 101.2

    @A31D31N Because the author is an ex-JSDF enlisted who thinks old technology is superior to new and politicians and media are either scheming or at least inconsiderate assholes. I thought everybody knew this already.

    Risou no Himo Seikatsu - Vol. 5 Ch. 20 - Sharowa Royal Family Arrives!

    @The5thSeraph What part of "these people existed before 1900" and "for the average human" in any way omits that these people exist? It's not a mathematical rule (in the analytical sense) like 1+1 = 2 or 0.999... = 1 (yes, that is true), but statistics doesn't work that way. In statistics we...

    Risou no Himo Seikatsu - Vol. 5 Ch. 20 - Sharowa Royal Family Arrives!

    @The5thSeraph That doesn't make it less true. Every reputable study has show that humans are social in nature. Well yes, genetics are not Mendelian, but rather "Gaussian" in nature (see Fisher and Galton) and genes are passed on based on normal distribution. So trying to attack an argument by...

    Risou no Himo Seikatsu - Vol. 5 Ch. 20 - Sharowa Royal Family Arrives!

    @The5thSeraph Which is what I meant. Although egoism (as in the individual has more worth than the group) is a modern thing. Yes, there were individuals who subscribed to that idea even before 1900, but they were a crass minority. Psychology actually supports the idea that for the average human...

    Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken - Vol. 18 Ch. 81 - The Wight King

    @Hejti IIRC @Tearsax Which is usually the case with WNs and LNs.

    @Hejti He blackmailed Frey into putting it on Milim, since Milim and Frey are friends.

    Risou no Himo Seikatsu - Vol. 5 Ch. 20 - Sharowa Royal Family Arrives!

    @The5thSeraph Yes, I'm quite sure. Pre 1968 (as a general rule of thumb) it was consensus, that the society as a whole is more important than the individual in it. The most notable example is the willingness of men volunteering for armed service. We all know that there were suicides of Japanese...

    Risou no Himo Seikatsu - Vol. 5 Ch. 20 - Sharowa Royal Family Arrives!

    @The5thSeraph From what little I have read, Genjitsushugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki handles it pretty well, as does The Holy Grail of Eris and for an older example: Ginga Eiyū Densetsu, although the latter two aren't isekai. Naturally an author who doesn't have any clue how it really was can't...

    Fire Force - Vol. 29 Ch. 253 - The Devouring Shadow

    @bastyxx227 The sister is despair. Madness is the woman they met in China (Amaterasu). So far the only two pillars I cant remember them meeting is Fear and Disgust. From left to right in the last panel: Iris - Disgust - Fear - Inca (Arson Girl) - Shinra - Sho - Haumea - Amaterasu /edit...

    Kenja no Mago - Vol. 16 Ch. 56.1 - Extra 6

    @dethduck That's not quite applicable here. The TSP (telecom service provider) will be wholly state run, like most European TSP were. The monopoly is very much intended.

    Dev news: Launching API version 2 (also v1 deprecation notice) | Last updated 2021-01-17

    @Teasday That'd be great. The end user really only needs either the data or an error message. Additional information (status-code, HTTP version, encode, etc.) can (and should be) sent via headers. That might be, they should still return the proper error codes. A new programmer wouldn't know...

    Dev news: Launching API version 2 (also v1 deprecation notice) | Last updated 2021-01-17

    @Teasday Ah, so just a documentation not a technical issue. I'd suggest changing/clarifying that 0 is false and 1 is true. Good docs are important after all. On that note I have some issue with the API itself: 1. Data is returned in an envelope stating the HTTP-Code, the status name (the...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 4 Ch. 15 - The Unexpected Guest

    @Korvalus, @ShinGetsu, @Rugid, @sunshinelemons: See below for your answers @iskaeil Yeah, you don't really practice if you're getting thrown into cold water. For actually good results a controlled environment is crucial. Speed comes from precision after all. We know that Connie is a shy...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 4 Ch. 15 - The Unexpected Guest

    @iskaeil If you're unprepared for a situation as the reporter put Connie in it's normal to be totally steamrolled. She fired quick questions to bring Connie on the wrong track and if she had just answered to one question she would have jumped on that inquiring further and then tried to pry other...

    Dev news: Launching API version 2 (also v1 deprecation notice) | Last updated 2021-01-17

    A few questions: 1. Is there a reason why true is defined as 1 in the docs? Because in classic computer science it's false that's defined as 0 and everything else is true, unless you're in the UNIX Shell, then it's 0 being true and 1 being false. Regardless of that I'd probably constrain the...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 4 Ch. 14 - The Silent Ladies' Party

    @Stoner I never wrote that. Thanks, Sherlock -- never would've thought of that. But if you quote it, at least do it right: "correlation does not imply causation" is the phrase you're looking for. Causality and Causation refer to the same thing. And more scheming men than women, resulting in...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 4 Ch. 14 - The Silent Ladies' Party

    @Nunally The first car came 1886, which is right at the end of the period this manga portrays. We're also getting to see the story of a noble girl, of course you're not going to get to see the gritty day to day living of people working in a factory and depending on the location you won't even...

    The Holy Grail of Eris - Vol. 4 Ch. 14 - The Silent Ladies' Party

    @Nunally No it isn't! One can pretty much put the timeframe of this manga post French Revolution/Regency Era until mid Victorian era, i.e. 1800 to 1860, which is way past feudalism in most western European countries, which form the basis for the manga's society.
