You seem to be pointing out that formal education isn’t needed to learn something. That’s obviously true. The person you’re responding to seems to be saying that being a librarian is a job that requires a nontrivial amount of learning. That learning is on the level of something like a masters degree. This is also true

I don’t understand this urge. Wastewater treatment plants deal with raw sewage, sure, but their whole purpose is to make it better than it comes in. That’s real, tangible good. Why dirty their names? They already take the rest of our literal crap.

QGIS is what the meme is about. I didn’t see it when I looked either

Don’t bother. I tried it. 1 star.

Totally!

You can test your “flushable” wipes. Put them in a jar with water, shake for 30 seconds. Do the same with toilet paper. Wait 5 minutes. If your wipes aren’t as broken down as the toilet paper, they will cause problems in your pipes.

Not quite. No apostrophe usually means plural. With apostrophe means possessive or a contraction (what is to what’s). Its/it’s is an edge case where the possessive “its” has no apostrophe and contraction “it’s” does.

All that being said, native speakers mistype all of these all of the time, so you don’t have to worry about it for casual conversation.

For anyone wondering these are, legally speaking, ebikes. As in they squeezed a delivery truck into the legal definition for a bike to be able to use bike lanes.

What species do you think is pictured? Looks like young salmon to me.

A small script to append some characters to a string based on whether the letters in the file name were capitalized. Super simple, but I had a data migration project to a system that doesn’t recognize case and people before me coded information into case. It is essentially tutorial level but real life application. Maybe you have something similar? Practical and working before anything complex.

Also is the tree the negative space or is the sky? Your pic swings back and forth for me

Love it. I could spend hours watching the sky through this tree

This is interesting because CPR/first aid classes specifically teach (taught) that back blows are harmful and cause obstructions to get lodged lower in the airway except for very young people who you can turn upsidedownish. Time to rethink. Love it!

Tell me you don’t communicate science often without saying it. Know the audience is rule 1.

But ok, ‘tell’ is useful anthropormophism to get an idea across. Sensing though? In what way is reacting to a stimuli not sensing? It is the word scientific papers use. What would you say instead?

A little, the stretching house plant demonstrates how plants can sense the direction light is coming from. They can also sense qualities of light. They can tell if light is filtered through other leaves, for instance. I would speculate that refected light also has a unique color (wavelength) distribution that a plant could sense and respond to

Fault divorce makes you prove that harm is being done thus a divorce is needed. This is removing no sex as a fault. I think there are usually financial ramifications from being the at fault spouse. Thus there would be financial repercussions for refusing to have sex with someone. Obviously a bad thing.

There is a thing called no-fault divorce that requires no proof of harm. I don’t know if France has this, but it is how you get around needing any reason besides that one spouse wants to.

The “high bridge” is just the nick name that absolutely everyone uses. It has a real name, but nobody cares.

That’s not a demon. That’s an angel.

It isn’t common, and explode is an exaggeration for what I have seen - just cracked bark (though the crack was probably abrupt and loud). Montana gets some every now and again, so I am guessing at least some parts of Alberta do too. Nobody has made a big deal about it in the past outside of folks interested in trees. This is some weird media hype.

This isn’t the same plant as the op. Op is poison oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum).
