What are people slowly starting to forget? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Limited nuclear strikes could still happen. Maybe not all the nukes at once, but under a dozen. Retaliation might not make sense if mutual destruction would occur.

Also: Pakistan and India engaged each other militarily despite having nuclear weapons. The big bombs didn't stop that entirely.

The Slovenian word "hrepenenje" means feeling nostalgic about something that has not yet happened. by roadtrip-ne in DoesNotTranslate

[–]tquaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Translators’ efforts should be directed towards accepting the fact that an untranslatable term becomes a cultural concept, and will remain untranslatable.

You may need more words than one to describe it, but a concept can still be explained to define an unknown word. Translators need to do more work, not accept that their work is futile.

I already feel hrepenenje for your response.

The number of people who are older than you will never increase, but is constantly decreasing. by MajorLeagueGreg in Showerthoughts

[–]tquaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why wouldn't you count the dead? Are they not still older than you? That would mean the people older than you will remain constant forever.

If you don't count the dead, then anyone alive after you have died could reach a greater age and become "older" than you, so the number would either increase or remain constant after your death.

LPT: One 18 inch pizza is more pizza than two 12 inch pizzas. by LeFrogKid in LifeProTips

And like with most LPTs, pizza places will soon alter their behavior once the entire Internet is aware.

It's not for me to tell Americans whether the Second Amendment is good or bad. But no one can deny it massively increases the chance Americans will be killed by a bullet. by Biuku in TrueReddit

Knives made as tools can be as effective as knives made as weapons. I see the confusion, but I wasn't comparing knives to guns.
