I like these channels a lot. I have to ask, though, doesn't #hot-takes end up getting people in trouble? Like HR trouble? Or at least stuff like starting political flame wars between colleagues?
"The imperial system is awful compared to metric, but Farenheight is a better temperature scale for humans than Celsius."
"soft-close hinges/slides are a worthless and annoying novelty in modern cabinetry. they feel worse to open and closing a drawer without slamming it isn’t that hard"
"Cartoon Network was way better than Nickelodeon in the 90s-00s. Both of them win over Disney Channel any day"
"email should be banished, just like faxes and cheques. it’s an extremely inferior and unsuitable medium for how we communicate online these days"
"cucumber is an overrated and is only good in gin and tonics"
Basically, nothing is actually of consequence there, but people get fired up and have strong opinions. It's a fun interaction.
Well, everyone probably does need to agree on what is off-limits for work conversation. Putting something like "Joe Biden is a communist" or "Black lives matter is just a front for foreign agitators" into #hot-takes is probably not something you want people getting into at work in most cases, right? (Note that I am not making either of those statements, they were purposely chosen to be extremely provocative.)
I think the original argument was a meat because a meat is a single, semi-solid, blob of a single item. Salads are non-mixed collections of goods and soups are homogenized(?) liquids.
Or did they collapse the state of matter for soups and meats?
