A lot of adhesives do, and the UV can even generate tiny sparks. You shouldn't peel the sticky label off a fuel can, because if the conditions are just right, that energy can ignite the fuel.

You say that, but people keep asking "why don't they use the waste heat to heat the nearby houses?" Is Manhattan one of those places with neighbourhood steam pipes? That would be an ideal location!

As for doing it yourself, check your contract. If you engaged them as a broker, there might be a penalty fee if they find you a mortgage but you go direct, and it's probably more than their regular fee.

It varies. Sometimes they get the fee from you, sometimes commission from the lender (which makes the lender charge you more than if you went direct). Maybe the "lower rate" is just them offering you the choice between paying them directly vs paying commission.

I feel like the person who chose the axes on this diagram must have been traumatised by a maths teacher as a child.

When I tell people that all of the British Isles is north of Vancouver, the reactions are 50/50 split between "of course it is; you call that trivia?" and "omg this explains so much"

Marx wouldn't think "the workers own the company," he'd see the SWEs as petit-bourgeouis. Last time I was in MV, one of the SWEs was selling his old car to his gardener by instalments, and bemused that the chap couldn't just buy a car for cash. Marx would punch the SWE and tell the gardener to rise.

Maybe. Another data point is that nurses and teachers are huge victims of number six, and tend to be very socialist, even though the state is the main employer taking advantage of how much they care.

The first five points also apply to software developers, but a lot of us end up very capitalist, and I've always wondered why. "Seize control of the means of production" is much easier when the means of production is mostly inside your head.

I didn't resent the scariness, but when I got past the initial exploration and every day had to start with basically the same trip into the shadow realm, I got too bored to continue.

Repeating the same teaching process again won't necessarily fix the problem. Perhaps the value in remedial courses *is* as a backstop, to achieve what school couldn't for those students.

Lorcano is charismatic and everyone likes him. Paris is a convict and lashes out at anyone who might get friendly or help him out. I hate to suggest it, but maybe the difference in attractiveness comes purely from good acting 😲

You must have heard the rumour that they just didn't want to pay the residuals to the writer of the episode, which is pretty baseline by Hollywood standards of sinister.

On the bright side, I don't think I could have kept a straight face through eight seasons of a show with someone called Nick Lorcano at the helm and LARPing as Captain Proton
