And practically necessary.

The risk is that if a kickback occurs while you are gripping on the work piece, it could pull your hand and arm towards the saw. You will not react quickly enough if a kickback happens. That being said, since the parts are longer, if you are keeping your arm far enough away that a kickback couldn't pull you close enough then I could see the cut being done somewhat safely. Still, I would say that an outfeed table or roller stand is a worthy investment to make long cuts easily and safely.

I'm a cabinet installer, and I use a table saw every day. Do not put your hand anywhere near the saw blade when it is running. Use push sticks and never pull a part through from the back of the saw. If the cuts are getting harder to make, put a new sharp blade. Dull saw blades are the most dangerous and cause most kickbacks. You're smart to respect the dangers but with care and attention you can use them without much risk.

People use Duolingo because it isn't an annoying experience, and they don't have to take it seriously. Not everyone is learning a language for the same reasons.

Torches and pitchforks.

I have hundreds of burned discs that work fine. If you bought cheap discs you got what you paid for.

I think I don't appreciate pridefulness and the implicit arrogance of people who are overly positive about doing things that are mundane or expected. I might just also be an asshole.

I always reflect on the French, and the retribution they inflicted on thousands of Germans when they were liberated. Eventually the French government had to step in, because the revenge was getting a bit out of hand perhaps.

Is it anti-social engineering?
