There is an epidemic of people misunderstanding what hit points are and why you gain them. This rant/explanation is fueled by an argument I had with one of my players and too many comments on DnD streams where people misunderstand HP. The only part of your HP that determines how much damage you can physically withstand is the Con modifier you add, the rolled HP is combat experience, luck and mental fortitude. Let me explain.
A lvl 20 Goliath Barbarian at full heath gets stabbed in the head with with a simple 1d6 sword. That Goliath is dead, gaining HP isn’t becoming tough enough to survive a sword to your goddamn cranium, it’s gaining enough combat experience that you’re able to avoid the deadly blow and instead only suffer a cut in your arm.
This is the entire concept of sneak attack and critical hits. The rogue isn’t suddenly hitting you harder than normal, they’re slipping past your defenses to deal the realistic damage of you getting stabbed in the kidney. When you crit you aren’t hitting harder than you were before you’re landing a solid hit that your opponent is having a harder time avoiding.
This is why your rolled HP is dependent on your class and not your race, and why martial classes have the highest hit die. A knife in the gut is a much more dangerous when you’re a gnome than when you’re a Goliath unless the gnome is a fighter and the Goliath is a wizard. One has much more combat experience than the other and is able to avoid the deadlier hit.
Edit: again this is also why you heal to full HP after a long rest. You aren’t magically healing hundreds of cuts on your body, you’re becoming rested enough that you’re able to avoid that dagger to your neck.
Edit 2: I avoid taking about spells because magic is fucking weird.
Also poison damage. It’s about how much poison/venom is actually able to get into your system before you’re able to pull back and avoid it.
Appleシリコンを開発してなかったら「ん、Goodコンピュータだね」で終わってた
スティーブ・ジョブズがかつてから語っていたAppleの理念の一つに:
"People who are serious about software should make their own hardware."
(ソフトウェアを真剣にやるなら、自分でハードウェアも作るべき)
という考え方があり、これはApple Siliconにも通じています。実際、iPhone・iPad向けにApple独自設計のAシリーズチップを始めたのは**ジョブズ時代(2008~2010頃)**で、それがApple Siliconの原型とも言えるでしょう。

Hey everyone. I don't know where else to post this. I need to write it down before I convince myself I was just hallucinating. I’m a grad student in Japan, doing fieldwork on forgotten local folklore. That's why I was out in the absolute middle of nowhere in Gunma prefecture last night.
My plan was to visit a tiny, dying village called Yomi-touge (not its real name) that supposedly has some unique traditions. Of course, my phone lost signal hours ago, and my car's GPS, which I bought in 2015, decided to have a total meltdown. The sun went down. The mountain roads are narrow and winding, and a thick, soupy fog started to roll in. The kind of wet, heavy air that makes you feel like you’re breathing water. I was completely, hopelessly lost.
After what felt like an eternity of driving at a crawl, I saw it. A light. A single, brutally bright rectangle of light cutting through the fog. A convenience store. One of those big chains you see everywhere, a FamilyMart or a Lawson, I couldn't tell which at first. I’ve never felt so relieved in my life. I parked the car and practically ran inside, the little door chime sounding way too loud in the dead silence.
The inside was… normal. Too normal. The lights were humming with a high-pitched buzz that drilled into my skull. The shelves were perfectly stocked. The air smelled of cheap air freshener and something else… something sweet and hot, like ozone or burnt sugar.
He was a young guy, maybe my age. Pale, drenched in sweat, with dark circles under his eyes like bruises. He moved with a painful stiffness, like every joint was rusted. He muttered a "Irasshaimase…" without even looking at me, his eyes fixed on the counter. His arms were covered in these intricate, dark tattoos, winding from his wrists up under his sleeves. I figured he was just sick, or on a rough shift. I felt bad for him.
I grabbed a can of coffee and went to the counter. "Sorry to bother you," I started in Japanese, "I'm pretty lost. Could you tell me where I am?"
He looked up, and his eyes didn't seem to focus on me. It was like he was looking at a screen a few inches in front of my face. "We do not provide directional information," he said, his voice a flat, rehearsed monotone. "Will that be all for you?"
Okay, weird, but whatever. Maybe it's store policy. As he reached for my coffee, his sleeve slid up. The tattoos on his arm… they weren’t just pictures. For a split second, I swear to God, the lines of ink shifted. They writhed, like tiny black worms under his skin, and a patch of his forearm glowed with a faint, sickly red light. He flinched, a sharp intake of breath, and quickly pulled his sleeve down.
I just froze. I couldn’t have seen that, right? I was tired, my eyes were playing tricks on me.
The person who walked in… I don’t know how to describe them. It was a man, I think. He was tall and wore an old, soaked trench coat. But his face… it was like my brain refused to process it. It wasn't that he had no face, it was that my eyes would slide right off it. It was a blur, a glitch, a 404 error in human form.
The clerk didn't seem surprised. He didn't even seem to see him as strange. His posture just became even more rigid. The red glow on his arm pulsed again, brighter this time, visible through his sleeve.
The faceless man didn't speak. He just stood there. The clerk, without a word, turned. But he didn't go to the coolers. He kept his back to the man, and held out his left hand, palm up. I heard a soft, wet, squelching sound. From a small, dark slit in the center of his palm that I hadn't noticed before, a small carton of strawberry milk, the kind you give to kids, just… emerged. It was produced out of his hand. It was wet with a clear, viscous fluid.
He placed it on the counter. "Here is the requested product," the clerk said, his voice straining. "The transaction is complete."
The faceless man picked up the strawberry milk. He put it in his coat pocket. And then he just… faded. He didn’t walk out the door. He dissolved into the humming air, like heat haze. A second later, he was gone.
The clerk let out a long, shuddering breath and swayed on his feet. He leaned heavily on the counter, his face sheet-white. He looked utterly, existentially exhausted. He saw me staring, my mouth hanging open, the can of coffee still in my hand.
For the first time, a flicker of something real, something human, crossed his face. It was pure, undiluted terror.
"You… are not a regular customer," he whispered, his voice trembling. "Your… concept is too stable. Please. Leave."
I didn't need to be told twice. I threw a 500 yen coin on the counter and ran out of there so fast I think I broke the sound barrier. I didn't even take my coffee. I just got in my car and drove, I don't know in which direction, I just drove.
I'm at a service station now, about 100km away. The sun is coming up. I can't stop shaking. It wasn't a dream. I know it wasn't. Because when I was fumbling for my keys, I realized I had accidentally grabbed the receipt from the counter.
It’s not for my coffee. It’s for the other transaction. It just has one item listed. It doesn't say "Strawberry Milk." It says:
ITEM: CONCEPTUAL SALVATION (FLAVOR: CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA) - 1 UNIT
PRICE: ¥0
METHOD: ANNULMENT
Has anyone seen a store like this? What the hell is happening in the mountains of Gunma? What did I see? And God, that poor kid working the counter. He isn't in trouble. He's a part of it. He's the machine.
ああ、ついに出たな、「成長率マウント取れば全部勝ち」教の信者。
いいか、まず年率5%成長って言葉を嬉々として使う前に、その成長の中身を精査する頭を持て。数値の裏側を読めない奴が経済を語るのは、もはや事故だ。
まず、中国の「年率5%成長」ってのは名目GDPの話か?実質GDPか? さらに言えば、その統計を誰がどのように集計し、どのように発表しているかを理解しているか?
中国国家統計局の発表値は、過去に幾度も地方政府による水増し、虚偽報告、整合性のない数値が問題視されてきた。
IMFや世界銀行でさえ、中国の統計に対しては「独立検証不能」の注釈をつけてる。つまり数字が出てるから信じる、はもはや知的自殺行為。
対して日本の成長率が低いのは事実だ。だがそれは「成熟経済の低成長」だ。
言い換えれば、インフラ、法制度、金融市場、国民所得、教育水準などが飽和水準に達しているから、爆発的な成長余地がないということ。
つまり「すでに完成された構造を維持し、微調整していくフェーズ」に入っている。
それを「マイナス成長」と表現するなら、お前の中では50歳の賢者より、筋トレ始めたての中学生の方が成長率が高いから偉いという話になる。成長率とは成熟を否定するものではない。
で、「産業の独立性」とか言ってるが、それ、どの指標で見てる?サプライチェーンの自給率?国内需要比率?製造から研究開発までの垂直統合度?それとも単に自国でやってる感?
現実を見ろ。中国の半導体産業はEUV露光装置を一台も自国で実用化しておらず、設計はARM系、EDAはCadenceやSynopsysなど米国企業、製造装置は日本・米国・オランダ。
しかも、その自立性を進める過程で起きたのが、大基金の横領事件と形式だけの成果報告で補助金を食い潰す構造腐敗。
補助金で「国産品」を偽装するような官製経済のどこに健全な独立性があるのか、説明してみろよ。
対照的に日本は、素材、装置、精密機器、部品、加工技術において世界の最上流を押さえている。
これがどういう意味か分かるか?誰かが何かを作ろうとするとき、日本抜きでは成り立たないってことだ。
中国がスマホを自作しようが、そこに使われてるリチウムイオンバッテリーのセパレーターは旭化成製、タッチパネルのフィルムは日東電工製、半導体の製造装置は東京エレクトロン製だ。
つまり「誰かの成長」を技術と素材で日本が支えてる構造。これが真の産業の独立性だ。依存される側は、価格でも条件でも交渉力を持つ。
それにGDP成長率を語る前に、一人あたりGDPの比較をしろ。
中国は2023年時点で約1.3万ドル、日本は3.5万ドル超。つまり、中国人一人の経済生産力は日本人の3分の1以下だ。
いくら全体のGDPが大きくても、14億人の巨大母数で割った結果、国民の生活レベルは依然として途上国水準。
しかも、中位年収は都市部でさえ年間5~7万元(約100万円)台、農村はもっと下。
つまり、大多数の国民はまともな医療も教育も自由にアクセスできない。
成長はしているが、それが広く国民に分配されていない。それは「国力の上昇」とは呼ばない。国家規模のエリート偏重の搾取構造だ。
だからな、成長率だの産業独立性だの表面を撫でて喜んでるお前に必要なのは、まず「数字をどう読むか」という知性。そして「それが実際に誰を豊かにしてるのか」という倫理だ。
成長率の棒グラフだけ見て勝った気になってる奴は、経済を語る資格はない。
お前が見てるのはただの上澄みだ。社会の本質は、沈殿した泥の中にある。そこまで理解できたら、ようやく議論の土俵に立てる。
今はまだ、その前だ。黙って勉強してろ。
Linuxのスマートフォンを実際に使っている人間の感想として。
PinephoneというARMベースのSoCで動くスマートフォンにDebian(正確にはMobianというDebianフォーク)を入れてしばらく使っているが、これは現状では普及しないだろうなという気はする。理由を書いてみる。
Android/iOSではあたりまえにできる日本語のフリック入力がLinuxスマートフォンではいまだにできない。日本語入力自体はもちろん使えるので、ローマ字入力になる。画面が小さくてキーボードが小さいとつらい。既存のスクリーンキーボードをカスタマイズすればフリック入力っぽいものが作れそうだが、大変すぎるので自分でやる気にはならない。
いや、フリック入力できるぞ?という人は適切なパッケージを教えてください……
Linuxスマートフォン用にいくつかのUI(Linuxではデスクトップ環境と呼ばれるやつ)がある。代表的なものはPhoshだ。モバイル用のUIにプリインストールされているパッケージはモバイル端末用にある程度最適化されているのだが、自分でインストールしたパッケージは基本的にデスクトップでの使用を前提にしているので、そのまま使うのは厳しい。
自分が持っているPinephoneにはLibreOfficeもインストールして普通に動くが、画面のほとんどがツールバーで埋まってしまって、まともに使うのはほぼ無理だ。
現時点でもPostmarketOS、Mobianをはじめとして、モバイル端末用のLinuxディストリビューションにはいくつかの選択肢がある。モバイル端末用のUIにも複数の選択肢がある。さまざまな端末でバッテリーの消費を最適化し、カメラやセンサーが動くようにし、同じアプリが使えるように、デバイスドライバをはじめとして諸々の機能を開発するのは膨大なコストになりそうなので、Androidでいいじゃん、となる。
先日、東洋水産をフォローしている企業にフォローを解除するようにというポストが話題になったけど、これを見て真っ先に自分が思い浮かんだのが、東京2020オリンピックのスポンサー不買運動。あれもフォローしている企業は一切使わないみたいなのに似ている気がする。
オリンピックのスポンサーは原則として1業種1社なのだが、東京2020オリンピックに限っては (日本の広告事情 (電通のせい) を考慮した結果なのだろうが) 1業種に複数社が加盟することが特例で認められているため、スポンサー企業の製品を一切使用しないとなると生活が不便になる。
例えば以下のような感じである。
※ 今回はどの業種のスポンサーであるかというのは考慮せず、企業名のみで判断することにした。たとえば (下の例にはないが) 明治は本来「乳製品・菓子」の業種で契約していたため、それ以外の製品を宣伝することはできない。だが、この記事の場合そこまで考慮すると非常に手間がかかるため、今回は明治製品を一切使用しない生活と仮定してすすめるということになる。また、この記事は業種ではなく日常生活のカテゴリーで分類しているため、同じ企業名が複数回出ることもある。
などなど...。全部書くときりがなくなるのだが、嫌いな企業をフォローしている企業製品は一切使わないとなると、将来的には上の東京2020オリンピックみたいなことになりかねないということは言っておく。
気になったのだが、いまここを見ている人で東京2020オリンピックを2019年以前から反対していた人はどのくらいいるのだろうか。
以前人力検索はてなで見たときは最初から反対が半分、賛成から反対に寄ったのが半分だったが。
アメリカとイギリスを比較すると、どちらも英語圏であり、高度な教育機関を持つIT先進国ですが、IT分野での影響力には大きな差があります。アメリカがIT分野で圧倒的に強い理由を、イギリスと比較しながら考えてみましょう。
アメリカはイギリスの約5倍の人口を持ち、国内だけで大規模な市場が成り立ちます。これにより、IT企業は初期段階から大規模な顧客基盤を獲得でき、成長しやすいです。
一方、イギリスの市場は小さく、スタートアップは早い段階で国外市場(EUやアメリカ)に進出しなければならないため、成長のハードルが高くなります。
結果として、アメリカではベンチャー企業が爆発的に成長しやすい環境が整っているのに対し、イギリスでは起業のハードルが高く、IT企業が大規模化しにくい。
結果として、アメリカには世界中の優秀な技術者・起業家が集まり、イギリスは人材確保で不利になっている。
結果として、アメリカは国家規模での研究開発がIT分野の発展を後押ししており、イギリスはこの点で遅れを取っている。
結果として、アメリカのITエコシステムは長年の積み重ねによって強固になり、競争力が維持されている。イギリスはこのエコシステムを持たないため、後発の企業が成長しにくい。
アメリカは「市場規模」「投資環境」「移民政策」「政府支援」「エコシステム」のすべてが揃っているため、IT分野で圧倒的な強さを誇る。
✅ 市場が小さい
という要因から、IT分野でアメリカに大きく遅れを取っている。
このように、アメリカのIT産業の圧倒的な強さは長期的な蓄積の結果であり、イギリスを含む他国が追いつくのは容易ではありません。
First dates can be exciting and nerve-wracking all at once. You’re meeting someone new, learning about their interests, and trying to figure out if there’s chemistry between you. And then there’s flirting, that delicate dance of showing someone you’re interested without being too forward or awkward.
Flirting doesn’t have to be a high-pressure situation. In fact, it can be the most fun part of getting to know someone. Whether you're meeting someone on MixerDates or any other platform, the most important thing is to be genuine, stay calm, and let the connection develop naturally.
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how to flirt on a first date without feeling uncomfortable, you’re not alone. Everyone has their awkward moments, but the more you understand the art of flirting, the easier it becomes. In this article, we’ll break down how to flirt in a way that feels natural, exciting, and authentic to who you are. So, let's dive in and learn how to make the most of your first date experience—without overthinking it.
When it comes to flirting, confidence is key. But what does it really mean to be confident on a first date? Confidence doesn’t mean you need to be perfect, or even outgoing—it simply means being comfortable in your own skin and showing up as your authentic self.
Have you ever noticed how people are drawn to those who radiate self-assurance? It’s not about bragging or dominating the conversation—it’s about presenting yourself with ease. If you feel good about yourself, it will naturally show. A great smile, good posture, and eye contact can go a long way in making a good first impression.
For instance, think about the last time someone walked into a room and immediately caught your attention—not because they were the most attractive person in the room, but because of their energy. They were confident, they were present, and they made you feel at ease. That’s the kind of confidence you want to project on your date.
When you're confident, you're not worried about saying the perfect thing. Instead, you focus on enjoying the moment, making the other person feel comfortable, and letting the connection happen naturally. That’s the magic of confidence—it allows you to be present, fun, and, most importantly, yourself.
Let’s face it—no one wants to feel like they’re being “worked” or put through a game. That’s why subtlety is such a powerful tool when it comes to flirting. It's all about showing interest without being over-the-top or too obvious.
Flirting doesn’t always mean complimenting someone non-stop or using cheesy pickup lines. In fact, the most successful flirting is the kind that happens behind the scenes—subtle, playful, and lighthearted. Think about the little moments, like a teasing comment about how they always order the same thing at a restaurant or the way you laugh at a silly joke they make.
The key is to find a balance. A simple smile or a playful comment can convey interest without being too much. For example, if your date tells you they love hiking but they tend to get lost easily, you could say something like, “So, you’re telling me you need a personal guide? I could get behind that!” It’s lighthearted, humorous, and most importantly, it keeps the conversation fun without putting too much pressure on the situation.
By keeping it subtle, you allow your date to feel at ease. It takes the pressure off them to be perfect and allows both of you to enjoy the interaction more naturally. Flirting doesn’t need to be a performance—it’s about creating an environment where both of you can feel comfortable and authentic.
Now, let’s talk about something incredibly important in the flirting game: active listening. When we’re on a date, we often get caught up in thinking about what to say next, how we’re coming across, or if we’re being interesting enough. But the best way to make an impression? Truly listening to your date.
Active listening means you’re fully engaged in the conversation, giving your date your full attention and responding thoughtfully. It’s about showing that you care about what they’re saying and that you’re genuinely interested in getting to know them better. When you listen actively, you’re also giving them space to open up, and that can create an immediate connection.
For example, if your date mentions they recently traveled to Japan, instead of simply saying, “That’s cool!” you could follow up with something like, “What was the most memorable experience you had there?” This shows that you’re not just hearing their words but are genuinely curious and invested in their experiences. It’s a great way to build rapport and let them know you’re not just there to impress them—you’re there to connect.
While your words are important, body language often speaks louder than anything you can say. Whether you realize it or not, your body is constantly communicating how you feel. How you sit, stand, and move tells your date whether you’re relaxed, engaged, or distracted.
Small gestures can go a long way in flirting. A light touch on the arm, a subtle lean in when they’re speaking, or maintaining good eye contact—all these body language cues help signal your interest. And the great thing is, when done naturally, these cues can be just as effective as words.
For example, if you’re sitting at a café on your date and you lean in slightly when they’re sharing a funny story, you’re not just showing that you’re interested—you’re inviting them into your space. It’s an invitation to connect further. And when they respond by leaning in too, that’s when the magic happens—the unspoken connection that tells you both that there’s potential for more.
Flirting through body language doesn’t mean making grand gestures or being overly touchy. It’s about being present and showing that you’re engaged with your date in a subtle, but meaningful way.
It’s easy to get caught up in overthinking how to flirt or trying to figure out if your date is into you. But here’s a secret—when you let go of the pressure and allow yourself to have fun, everything flows much more naturally. Flirting on a first date doesn’t need to feel like a test or an assignment. It’s supposed to be a fun, lighthearted experience that sets the stage for more great dates ahead.
When was the last time you had a genuinely fun date? Was it when you were trying too hard to impress, or when you were both laughing, chatting, and enjoying each other's company? Flirting becomes effortless when you're present, enjoying the moment, and letting the connection grow naturally.
Sometimes, it's the small moments—like sharing a laugh or swapping embarrassing stories—that make a first date truly special. When you focus on having fun, you create an environment where both of you can relax, flirt, and let the chemistry grow. That’s the secret to a great date.
One of the best things about using a platform like MixerDates is that it takes the guesswork out of the equation. By connecting with someone who already shares your interests and values, you’ve got a head start on making a real connection. No more swiping through countless profiles hoping for a spark—on MixerDates, you already know there’s something in common.
When you’re already on the same page with your date, flirting comes more easily. There’s less of that awkward, “Are we even on the same wavelength?” feeling, and more of the fun, “Wow, we really click!” vibe. Whether you’re talking about favorite hobbies, movies, or life goals, the conversation flows naturally, making the flirting feel effortless.
If you're looking for a place to meet like-minded people and build genuine connections, MixerDates is the perfect platform. It's a great place to find someone who appreciates you for who you are and who you can naturally flirt with, without the stress.
Flirting on a first date is all about confidence, connection, and fun. When you let go of the pressure and focus on enjoying the experience, the chemistry will naturally follow. Remember, the best way to flirt is by being yourself—let your personality shine through, listen with intention, and embrace the moment.
And if you’re ready to meet someone new, who’s just as interested in making a connection as you are, MixerDates is the perfect place to start. So go ahead, take the leap, and see where it leads. Who knows? Your next great connection might be just a click away.
