How powerful is the video editing compared to TikTok?


The scale at which the US spends in both categories is astounding.


If one maximises nominal GDP instead of attempting to measure health and geopolitical outcomes, both categories do juice the reported figure.


I suspect the Singapore franchise is entirely different; the quality of their cookies is far higher than what you'd find in the states. They're real cookies that look like a real human baked them, served in a paper bag.


There's no shortage of high quality baked goods available in the States, I assure you! :-) Tate's is a good brand that you can buy in stores w/ no weird ingredients.

The Famous Amos retail stores that used to be here also had that "fresh baked in store" quality, because they were. The company eventually expanded into packaged cookies that were, naturally, made in a factory.


I was having trouble making sense of the figures in the article: "three million light-years", "40 billion stars"...

So I visited Scale of the Universe [1] to try to get a grip on things. Wonderful site (and music!), but I think it had the opposite of the desired effect. I am now completely numb to any notion of trailing zeros.
