Nah, too many perfectly good trees wasted on all the furniture

From what I remember from physics course, transitioning between solid/liquid/gas states requires extra energy to be absorbed or released that isn’t contributing to change in temperature. So change from -1°C ice to +1°C water is actually taking more energy than from 10°C to 12°C, despite being the same difference in temperature.

Also, we perceive temperature not in terms of these absolute values anyway, but rather how quickly it transfers heat to or from our body. That’s why humidity affects it, as moist air absorbs heat faster than dry (air being a pretty good heat insulator in general).

"Ten spears go to battle,” he whispered, “and nine shatter. Did that war forge the one that remained? No, Amaram. All the war did was identify the spear that would not break.”

Initial desire to make a utopia in USSR survived exactly until right after the first elections they tried to hold. If Lenin didn’t just decide that actually, no, we don’t like giving power to the people, I might have had more sympathy.

You are right in that communism is not inherently bad. But also the people trying to implement it didn’t really give a fuck about actually getting there.

The important requirement to be an ML is not being able to recite 80 key passages from memory, but being able to ignore any other passages from those books that contradict the Good Camp.
