u/ObliviousRounding

I don't mean contradiction, induction, etc. Rather, more granular techniques that keep coming up again and again. I also don't mean famous results per-se, unless they are themselves common stepping stones to other results.

I know this is a bit of a silly question to ask because it's hard to set the threshold beyond which something becomes a legitimate technique. Obviously deriving bounds on a quantity is too generic to qualify, but on the other end there's some very niche stuff that not too many people might find useful.

I guess the goal here is a little toolbox, if you will, of tools that you find yourself using repeatedly, and that might be useful to a broad audience.

I'm so confused by this device. I have it next to a laptop placed on the same surface if that matters. The air purifier is on all the time. Just changed the filter. The surface of the table is *always* full of dust especially around the device. My laptop screen is also always dusty. Sometimes I'd switch the air purifier off and it would seem to me that *less* dust accumulates on the laptop screen.

Is any of this expected? What am I doing wrong?

Graham as Lorelai is the most born-to-play-this-role role ever. Nobody has ever killed in a role as much she killed here.

I'm a big Tm Harford fan and this is by far my favorite podcast, which is why it pains me that the episodes feel like they're getting less substantial and more fluffy and drawn out. Is the weekly schedule too tight? I think I'd be OK with going back to one regular episode every other week interlaced with a conversation every other week, even though the conversation isn't my favorite format, if it means maintaining a high standard of quality.

Needed more of these, but when I went to get them they seemed distinctly smaller than the ones I owned. I looked it up: they used to be 70L; the current ones are just 50L. So the older ones are 40%(!) bigger.

It's not going to ruin my life or anything but it's pretty annoying how this keeps happening.

It feels like a weird dynamic is slowly emerging. It's almost like the rich English clubs have outsourced the scouting role to clubs like us knowing that they can hijack any deal with their financial power.

Marotta and Ausilio now face a literally thankless job. No matter how good of a job they do, they are between the rock of stingy owners who sabotage them at every stage, and the hard place of the thankless fans who don't understand what's going on and keep blaming them for these transfer failures.

If I were them, I would hardly see any value or fulfillment in this job beyond loyalty to Italian football. If or when that fizzles out, it only makes sense that they leave to a place that values their work, backs them with money and pays them appropriately.

I unfortunately see dark clouds ahead for us unless we get different owners.
