Who gives a sh*t, people can post whatever they want

This reminds me of the (probably apocryphal) Mozart quote where a student asked him to teach them how to write a symphony, and was told “start with something more simple and short, for one instrument”. The student complained “but you have been writing symphonies since you were a child!”. The reply: “yes, but I didn’t have to ask how”.

The application of this idea here is that for someone to know the requirements for their system to the degree that they can really be sure that the most typical suggestions are not sufficient for them, they probably have to understand how the kernel handles swap and RAM to an extent that they don’t really need to ask this question.

People are very ready to assume that their system is way out of the ordinary, but it probably isn’t.

“Commend” is not as difficult for me so I just remember it as re-commend

Yeah, for sure, but that’s not what this is about. At least Australia is actually far away. Phoenix to Vancouver is like just over half the distance from Sydney to Perth and this package went about three times as far to get there.

Also I think it’s not quite as bad anymore these days, at least in NZ we usually get stuff in a week or two now and although it’s still expensive the costs have come down a bit too.

There’s nothing “special” in the way you imagine about quantum phenomena. They are complicated to describe mathematically because we are limited to a fundamentally imperfect set of symbols, but they are not complicated to obtain the requirements for.

All chemical and light-interaction processes use quantum phenomena if you dig enough into how they work, and it’s especially clear on a smaller scale. If you just make something thin enough, it will start displaying quantum effects, but there is nothing that complicated about “thin”.

They’re not manipulating wavelengths with great complexity, they’re just growing a really thin layer on their shell.

You are mistaken. It’s wrong to think that just because they’re married their wives have meaningful control of any finances. It’s easy to see, for example, when they separate. Gates and Bezos’ former spouses took about 10% of their respective fortunes. Musk is single, lol. Putin is also single, but do you really imagine he ever let his wife make a decision?

Those are cherry picked examples, sure, but you can go down the list of billionaires and see that they are divorced much more often than you think, and their wealth doesn’t change much in the divorce.

More basically, the men are the ones on the list, aren’t they.

Their children also don’t have that kind of power until their parents die or at least get old enough to start succession planning, and they certainly don’t have control of the money.

Mastodon doesn’t have low character limits, it’s not terrible for having a conversation

Noooo, he can wear medium grey, dark grey, dark blue… and… uhhh…

This is such a non-sequitur that I’m really not sure what it means. Care to enlighten? Is the “joke” that I am a woman and therefore must change my clothes often? Not your best work

The US does have a homicide rate 3-10 times greater than other developed countries and a gun death rate 20-50 times greater than other developed countries, and in line with Guatemala, El Salvador etc.

Just because it’s not a strictly linear increase with the number of guns does not mean they aren’t causative.

In fact, that statistic is deliberately misleading because you can only really murder people with one gun at once, so the more guns you own, the less likely any individual gun is to be a murder weapon.

You agree that it’s a way to divide people, but you don’t think more united people will help against wealth inequality?

Who’s in the 0.1%?

Sex & gender discrimination is a way, one of the most important ways, in which we are divided in order to make class oppression possible.

So I agree, blame the 0.1%, but the only way you can actually do anything about that is by healing the gender divide, and you’re not going to do that by pretending everything is fine and equal when it’s not.

The 0.1% are the reason why women are oppressed, sure, but that doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

Wanna guess if it was men or women who profit the most from the relentless consumption machine? Wanna guess if it was men or women who controlled women’s livelihoods based on their conformance to their standards of femininity, until, like, one generation ago? Lol

Yeh, I believe this is the right approach. It makes sense that it’s important to people to have some rituals around interaction and bonding even if they don’t mean anything to me personally and even if they don’t have any deeper or fundamental meaning.

I think it would be nice if society were more forgiving of people who struggle with it though, it can lead to a lot of bitterness and resentment.

You take out the yolks and add stuff to them, so they take up more space…

Hoe dan dat ik er nog nooit van gehoord heb? 'k heb ook nog nooit in Nederland geleefd, er zijn veel dingen die ik niet ken. Alleen een beetje de taal bijhouden hebben mijn ouders wel voor gezorgd, maar niet dat ik wist wat zo’n eitje was.

Omg, nog nooit van gehoord maar dat moet ik een keer proberen

Nah, with Brønsted-Lowry bases/acids (although actually even then there are nonaqueous protic solvents which can be acidic, and various hydroxides which will dissociate in other solvents than water, so it’s not strictly true) that idea is good enough for high school chem. But Lewis acids/bases can be in any kind of solvent, or even solid or gas.

It’s not that bad, they’re single bevel so you’d have to try to sharpen the wrong side of the blade to fuck it up too badly

In my experience which is pretty extensive with python but only moderate with typescript I’d say it’s probably better, easier to work with and offers a similar level of flexibility.

Not sure what you mean by performance but it’s easy to be disciplined when you can’t commit something that isn’t fully annotated. I feel like I can trust it fairly well, except for rare occasions where external library code is wrongly annotated and I have to put some ugly shim in.

Afaik you can just go to definition in literally any language, typing or no.

I’m in total agreement about the packaging though, it sucks.
