I have a theory that for women, it's really the middle ground that is hardest; small light things are easy enough for anyone, and very heavy things level the playing field also; nobody, man or woman is going to lift something that weighs 500 lbs., so you use pulleys and winches and hydraulics to make life easier. But the middle ground is tough because you might have to lift something 150-200+ pounds which will exclude most women and a number of men, but may still be light enough to not normally demand assistive machinery.

In any case, I've had my challenges with PTO shafts on a Kubota + Land Pride mower. The other comment about greasing the PTO shaft & coupler is probably a good start.

I found the biggest challenge to be holding down the retaining ring(?) while simultaneously rotating and pushing the PTO shaft onto the PTO. I don't know about the layout of your spader, but anything to help take the weight off so you can just worry about the alignment part will probably help.

There's a lot of value to the ecosystem here if it could be standardized - possibly it should be an RFC.

Combined with what rswail wrote about encoding hierarchies, with careful design, those CSV sections could be embedded as tables.

If that was used as a base format for other formats, then objection that encoding for boolean and numerics wasn't standardized might go away.

Sure, non-wealthy people own stocks. But right now, the richest 10% of American households own 84% of the value of all stocks owned by Americans [1]. It is clear that the wealthy benefit massively from these structures and have much more use and access to them than the "everyman", who in the U.S. probably lives paycheck-to-paycheck. The fantasy that the "everyman" is this cowboy investor and broker is ridiculous and only makes sense if you define "everyman" as an upper middle class American who has a high-paying job and owns significant investments. Compared to the wealthy, most Americans see no benefit from these global networks of moving money around because they aren't rich enough to make the effort and investment worth doing, much less have the connections necessary to even access them.

Al Jazeera is absolutely a terrorist organization if you live in the Levant (Iraq/Syria/Jordan/Lebanon), Non Muslim Brotherhood Gulf (KSA, UAE, Kuwait to an extent), Egypt, or others.

They routinely white-wash news about terrorist organizations (called ISIS rebels in Iraq until they couldn't get away with it anymore), funnel money to such groups, and lobby western governments to look away.

And as an Iraqi, I wish they had the balls to bomb their headquarters.

Some really good resources on this are in Arabic, and sadly the only way those get to English are through xenophobic blogs or far right outlets which delegitimizes this to the average western ears.

These only scratch the surface:

In network science, it’s fairly common to take a graph of something and be able to apply techniques like neighbourhood analysis or clustering which then reveal something about the data. This comes up in all kinds of real world examples from social networks to music preferences etc. What the authors are saying (I think) is that they tried the same tricks on the Panama data and got nothing useful out of it. The standard graph techniques don’t explain anything useful about what’s going on. I would guess (from previous experience working on similar things at opencorporates.com a few years ago) that this is because these networks aren’t constructed according to the real world - instead they’re a response to specific tax rules. For example if you use a specific tax avoidance scheme like the Irish dog leg then the company structure will be defined by the laws of the countries involved. Another reason would be that intermediaries like company formation agents are likely to show connections where they don’t exist in reality. If I use the same company formation agent as say, Donald Trump, it doesn’t follow that we’re related financially. Finally the Panama papers were just about hiding assets in many cases, so you’ll have these chains of ownership going through as many countries as they could be bothered to work with. This is just to give law enforcement etc. a hard time. Again I wouldn’t expect graph analysis to make sense of that on its own. If anyone is interested, banks in the US are required to document their corporate structures so there’s good data available on their structures. It suffers from the same issues though - it’s hard to tell from looking at a graph of companies where the bad stuff is happening.
One takeaway is the only sane choices for a new, large project where you expect a mature ecosystem and performance are C, C++, Java, Erlang, and Javascript (but probably not Javascript).
There isn’t really any magic in Perl, just lots of unfamiliar lexicon if you come from more traditional programming languages. Perls problem is it’s history is rooted in command line usage so there’s a tonne of inherited reserved single character variable names and such like that are optimised for keystrokes rather than readability. However you can certainly write Perl programs that don’t follow those older conventions and look more like a modern language.

I think the author is very confused about what China agreed to in the Paris climate agreement.

China agreed that they will start reducing emissions by 2030. Specifically, China agreed they will take emissions from the year 2030* as a baseline, and commit that from 2031 onwards, all yearly emissions will be lower than that baseline.

This metric is extremely game-able. The most logical thing for China to do is to continue increasing their emissions through the 2020s, have peak emissions in 2030, then reduce emissions after that. Maximizing their emissions in 2030 will give China the most breathing room for when they reduce their emissions over the next few decades.

And from the article, you can see China is doing this exact strategy. China has approved dozens of new extremely polluting coal power plants in the first six months of this year. As long as these power plants go online before 2030, these power plants are exempt from the climate agreement AND they also increase China's quota for emissions after 2030.

The Paris climate agreement lets China pollute as much as they want for the next decade. Not only that, it incentivizes them to pollute as much as they can. Because they can reap the rewards after 2030.

The logic is short in other terms.

It requires you wear the mask at all times. And that you change it regularly by removing folding inwards and disposing securely.

Otherwise you may pick up an infection and then put a mask on afterwards which necessarily means that much of the shedding caught in the mask will be breathed back in - From mouth to nose and vice versa.

Or put the mask back on backwards or wave it around in the air, put it on surfaces and the like.

All of which amplify the current infection you have making you more infectious when you take the mask off.

And may explain why at a local Covid secure school they all went down with the usual back to school viral cold far more rapidly this year than they normally do.

> I love that this exist, but the core problem with remote whiteboards is that everyone can write something legible when using a marker on a whiteboard, but it's way harder with a mouse/trackpad.

I'm actually experimenting with that with my side project Doodledocs [1], that feature isn't live yet, though. Also, for the user, one thing I found is that if you hold a large paperclip in your hand like it's a pencil, you can make easier writing motions on a trackpad.

> The template given was nothing like that, at all.

That's fair, I waded in to discuss a related pet issue and it's probably not fair to have posted the way I did.

> Regardless, I firmly believe that this attitude is keeping many people out of the tech business, let alone open source. Society shows that niceties are wanted and work, especially by women, a demographic under-represented in most parts of tech. I also find that not showing niceties is a display of dominance and self-importance, again, something that isn't going to bring more people into tech.

Let's start with the part where I said "though I don't usually respond so." It irritates me, but I tolerate it because my goal is to help people.

As for not having space for stories/niceties driving away women, I don't walk into the emergency room and think "man, this is a sausage fest". Usually there are vastly more women working there than men. Yet from discussions I've had with people who work in that area this is a common frustration there as well.

"You're bleeding, I don't need to hear about how depressed you've been since your grades are poor, fast forward to the part where you slipped while drunk and fell onto a broken beer bottle so I know what kind of treatment to administer." That's a made up example but is actually less ridiculous than the actual examples I've heard.

I'm not saying to leave out relevant details, but when you're bleeding or have broken bones or your left side is going numb, just tell the doctor the facts, as concisely and as clearly as you can.

If you want to tell stories, go to your primary doctor when you're not facing an emergency. Or, and this is not dismissive so please don't interpret it as such, go to a therapist, or a councilor.

A bug report on an issue tracker is obviously not life threatening in the vast vast majority of cases, but it's the same idea. It's where you go when things are broken, so tell me what's broken and the relevant context.

If you want to give thanks or talk about what you like or how you get value from the project or whatever, there are other venues for that and I encourage you to use them. Or put it at the end of the issue thread after the problem is at least identified. I've never been upset at someone for clearly expressing the problem and then saying thanks when I fix or acknowledge it.

EDIT:

> I also find that not showing niceties is a display of dominance and self-importance, again, something that isn't going to bring more people into tech.

It takes some serious mental gymnastics to turn a focus on helping people as quickly as possible into "a display of dominance and self-importance". I'm specifically asking people to not kiss my ass about "how much this project helped them during a dark time in their life" or whatever so I can get to the root of the problem they're encountering and resolve it.

It's incredibly bad faith to claim that trying to be efficient with my volunteered time so I can help as many people as possible is an attempt to dominate the people I'm helping. Frankly this sentence makes me question your motives here. Had I taken this sentence in earlier I wouldn't have responded to your post at all.
From an Australian perspective the main factor in us not getting as many hazard reduction burns as we’d like completed isn’t financial it’s the weather. There’s such a thin window of time when the bush is dry enough that we can actually light it but the weather conditions aren’t so dangerous that to do so would be foolhardy.

We could spend money to eke out a little around the margins like using more paid firefighters to do mid week burns. It’s not addressing the main issue, though. The climate is changing.

> Concentration camp in China = your race and religion mean you get a free invite you just can't say no to!

Seems pretty similar in the US for black people, being 12% of the population yet 33% of the prison population while white people are 63% of the population and only 30% of the prison population. [1] Are all 12 million Uyghurs in camps? Or is it also a disproportionate amount like in the US? Estimates say about 3 million are in camps, so about 25%. So, statistically anyway, the US seems a bit worse so far.

> Concentration camp in America = break the law by entering the country illegally and need to be processed before you're deported.

A concentration camp is a concentration camp regardless of the justification.

Well, there used to be. For example the coastal quasi-rainforest in Big Basin near Santa Cruz.

But climate change appears to have pushed places like that into the burn zone. Nowadays even Olympic National Park, an area full of temperate rainforest, is experiencing wildfire.

it seems like pretty much any forest area of California is at wildfire risk these days.

> I think avoiding numeric types is a good decision. It tends to eventually cause problems when one implementation (...)

It seems you're mixing up the language definition with implementations that try to follow the language definition.

If different implementations have different results then either they are buggy or the language has some important holes in the specification.

Either way,the solution to this problem is not less validation.

> One should remember that any sane application will be parsing the config file into internal data structures and validating it anyway so it gets little benefit from the numbers being already “parsed”.

That's the whole point, isn't it?

I mean, if you already acknowledge the fact that this parsing and validation is a basic requirement, why handle it as an afterthought and force developers to add their own hand-rollef absurd and unnecessary type checks and type coversions?

Wouldn't it simply easier to let the language and the parser do that already?

I mean, no one ever complained that JSON had string types. In fact, one of JSON's main complaints is that it doesn't support enough types, such as timestamps.
