> The idea that Nazis are right-wing is also kind of a modern conceit.

No, its not. I mean, except in the sense that Nazi’s are generally considered part of modern history and thus any description of them could be described as a “modern conceit”.

> When FDR was President the Democrats were the party of the Klan. Does that mean the New Deal is a right-wing program, or that the KKK is a left-wing organization?

No. It means that US parties of the time leading up to the New Deal were more strongly regional than consistently ideological (the Democratic Party had very different Northern and Southern constituencies and ideologies even before the New Deal coalition), and that the New Deal itself was the trigger for the largest, longest partisan realignment (or one of the two, though the other one was arguably only possible because the New Deal realignment was still shaking out) in US history, which only finally settled down after the secondary Civil Rights realignment to a fairly stable divisions – with a clear ideological left/right configuration – in the 1990s.

> Or maybe politics can’t be divided perfectly along a one dimensional axis

It can’t, but that doesn’t mean that any of the well-known axes of politicis don’t have things, including modern and historical political parties, that clearly fit on one side. The Nazis being one that fits clearly on the right (also, the authoritarian.)

As someone who falls into that bucket, I like to think I don't have any (abnormal) cognitive deficits. I do regret not learning the language of my parents, but I have friends who are much less adapted to western culture than I am because their parents weren't so keen to assimilate.

But who knows really? Perhaps I'd be even smarter if I were trilingual?

You're right, I don't take the transexual movement seriously. I edited my language as that's the word they called themselves back in the sex club days and I wouldn't want to hurt someone. In fact, their was a nightclub where you could meet Transexuals in the late 1990s in San Francisco called "Trannyshack" that was pretty obscure back then, but is now hugely famous now that the "transexual" movement has grown into an industry. "Transexuals" are just as big of victims of all this as everyone else and why cause them more trauma by calling them something that offends them. I would call someone walking around in a full body fury costume by whatever they're comfortable with too.
What you are experiencing is called nostalgia. Computers still coalesce around a set of standards, the hardware is still a black box, the software is more reliable than it used to be.

Perhaps then you can point me to an intellectually coherent defense of the idea that the US should be split up into racially segregated ethnostates.

Bickering and infighting hardly constitute evidence that intellectually serious work is being done in good faith. The far right has no more use for its 'useful idiots' once it attains power than the Communist party did for its pet intellectuals.

For some years I trained with a man in his 60s who fled from Hungary in 68 to The Netherlands. He married a Dutch wife. He never learnt to speak proper Dutch, he still had limited vocabulary. In his professional life he had worked as a sailor, which means he would work with people from all over the world speaking a little English. And he also was no longer able to speak Hungarian anymore as he was no longer using that language. So he spoke many languages, but none fluently. I thought that was really depressing!

No it cannot be achieved with those in generally, as Elasticsearch and other recent fiascos show.

Seems like a pretty clear answer with lots of good sources backing it up.
I'd appreciate it if you could be a bit more specific in where you see the non-understood nuances.

I know from personal experience that in practice this is not true in general, there are exemptions and AGPLv3 projects are used (but not derived or directly linked to!) – I cannot give out the specifics though, I'm afraid, so you'd need to take my word on that one.
There was a recent podcast that goes into deep detail of the causes of this phenomenon. How immense social, political, and even legal pressure suppresses those critical to transgender theory.

Interesting, i think the same is happening in France, a schism between cis and trans of the LGBTQ community.

For what it's worth, i think the gender fight in the media is not worth it for anybody. I dont see an end anytime soon, and i'd rather have gay marriage settle, add counseling in schools for kids who need it, and then maybe the LGBTQ+ community can start fighting this gender fight. Transversal fights are surely worth it (as Fred Hampton and the BPP proved), but i think this one we might want to avoid until we fix the rest.

Anybody remember / still play [Nomics]? I thought this was something like that, but I guess it's different.

Which got me thinking, what if it was like a Nomic?

Imagine cloning an exact copy of Wikipedia on another server. Then have 2 player teams: bad guys and good guys. The bad guys edit/write articles to cover their tracks. The good guys scour articles and article histories trying to uncover the truth. Maybe there needs to be a "game master" team that does some type of moderation? I don't know, just spit balling here. Too crazy?

Look for stories of people who are post-op or have gone a large portion of their life as trans. Sometimes they end up figuring out it's not for them. In most of those cases, it's not really that they were tricked or coerced, it's just that they get more help than people who do not identify as trans, but after they fully transition it disappears. In some rare cases a young person is pushed by someone.

You see the same thing with people who attempt suicide. People who attempt suicide have better life outcomes in general because they are given more help. Notably suicide is infectious and can trigger copycats.

This doesn't mean I think transexualism is fake -- there's a really interesting nature article where they use ML to identify the sex of brains separate from the body's apparent sex. But there definitely are incentives to ID as trans.

Well, it's not technically wrong. Humans _are_ primates, after all. But since I doubt that the algorithm has problems deciding on a species for white male homo sapiens, I guess that there's quite a bit of work still to be done.
While we are making improvements to examples, I would want to read code that looks like this:

So the `units` variable should be named that way to accommodate.
At this point I feel unsurpringly betrayed. As others have pointed out there is no going back. With little to no visibility on what the phone, the ipad, the mac-mini is doing, are they safe? I hear there's no device level scanning, has that been confirmed by someone other than Apple?

I can tell you what I have done so far, but it's very much work in progress.

- Removed all photos from iCloud and turn off all iCloud stuff.

- Backup up phones to my mac (encrypted), will transfer to nextcloud and NAS.

- Built a NAS and now storing photos there - looking at.
running PhotoPrism, but haven't made that work yet.

- Transfered useful cloudstuff to Hetzner's NextCloud hosted. and enabled E2EE on certain folders.

- I use NordVPN but I always have done.

I think the answer to your question is actually answered in your first paragraph. In the same way that you believe all Christians shouldn’t be judged by those who haven’t “practiced what they’ve preached”, consider that your understanding of “woke” people might be tainted by the fact that whatever media you are consuming might be focusing on the ones who also don’t practice what they preach.

In other words, any movement, Christian or “woke”, will have a subset of people who are hypocritical and/or ruthless. It is an easily observed behavior of biased media outlets that they will pay especial attention to the more unsavory outliers of a movement.
No, actually testosterone levels have been dropping, sperm counts have been dropping, and American men are vastly more obese and overweight than they were even 50 years ago. That is a change.

Just watch one of those old “Berlin in the 1920s” or “NYC in the 1970s” videos. You’ll quickly notice the almost complete lack of overweight people.
Wokeness is not unique in having people like that. As with any group of significance, there's some included that actively weaponize it. And also many people are new to it. I experienced this first-hand when I was introduces to something that was new and exciting to me, that suddenly everything I did was about that thing, and that I was doing everything to further my experience with it. I feel like some people do that with wokeness too, pushing it as far as they can with this momentum. Which is experienced as ruthlessness from the outside.
>They can't see the scan result until the device tells them that 30 images have matched kiddie porn

Isn't this FALSE? the devices hashes the images but it does not have the database, so the hashes are sent to the server, and Apple servers compares your hashes with the secret database, so Apple knows how many matches you have.

Your argument would make sense ONLY IF your images would be encrypted and Apple had no way to decrypt them so the only way to compute the has is with the creepy on device code.
Pardon my tangent, is there any languages with first class, by default units support?
I don’t understand why you’d presume that.
The past participle is gendered in Spanish. And it works the way I described, even with "genderless" interrogative pronouns - you'll default to the masculine, unless some omitted word "forces" the feminine. Like this:

1) Cual fue dicho? // which [one] was said.MASC

2) Cual fue dicha? // which [one] was said.FEM

3) Que fue dicho? // what was said.MASC

"Dicho/a": past participle of "decir", "to say".

On the first two examples, there are implicit masculine and feminine words respectively, like, dunno... "vocablo" and "palabra" (both are "word".) The third example however doesn't have anything like this, so it's defaulting to the masculine.

In Slavic languages, would something like (2) be allowed for the past tense? That is: an implicit word, "forcing" the past tense to go to the feminine [or neuter]?
I’m a homosexual man. I’ve been called out by woke friends because I’ve said that generally gay men are not attracted to vaginas. I’ve been called closed minded and a right wing asshole for saying that I would not date trans men, and that heterosexual intercourse will never be gay.

I have to keep these opinions quiet now because of the negative social backlash I’ve gotten.

I can’t believe we live in times where we have people in the lgbt community who criticize homosexual men as being “genital fetishists” for being attracted to only men of the same sex.
While I agree that it's no longer confined to Liberal Arts departments, I don't agree that it has influence on many people's lives (although that depends on how we define 'many'.)

Wokeness is generally treated as a joke among virtually every American whose employment is not dependent on 'public opinion', SNL's Levi's Woke Jeans skit is a classic take on that.

I don't know whether politicians are catering to over the top wokeness in order to be all-inclusive for votes, or if they believe (because they let someone else do their homework) that the majority of their constituency demands it.

Hi there
I am interest for the Product Manager role at Sibi. Please let me know where I can share with you my resume.
Wokeness is essentially a New England Puritan movement with some minor modifications. Even the sources (Ivy Leagues) are the same. If you view it through this lens, the lack of tolerance and crusader zeal becomes very apparent. It is perhaps the exact opposite of libertarianism.

Edit: some Puritan libertarians do not like this comment :)

What a heartfelt article, and one I can identify with well despite English being my first and only language. I'd tell the author that this affects all of us, not just those struggling with forgetting a first language (although that must throw the situation into even starker relief). I still wish that I could relate to my parents on a deeper level, although their English is fluent and near perfect. Perhaps their fluency in general has slowly declined with age, which could be a factor. But there are certainly times where I feel stuck in small talk with them.

I hope the author has children one day. It's the ultimate gift of being able to relate to your parents. Suddenly you understand the biggest and most important event of their entire lives: the birth of you, and perhaps your siblings. That can't be described fully in any spoken language, and it adds a beautiful layer to your relationship that you'll both understand so well. Even if you are never once able to speak about it.
Why do browsers insist on alienating their users?
Not a native speaker here. How come it's supposed to be a derogatory term? I mean, you would say "granny" because "grandmother" is too long. So saying "tranny" instead of "transsexual" makes sense, it even has more syllables.
>I demonstrated outstanding leadership and blamed him without any further evidence.

At least the Author seems to know it wasn't OK.
I have no data or research supporting my opinion.
What I think is happening is this:
Rich countries now allow people to have an abundance of free time and an easy way to connect to like minded peers.
This results in anyone in a "phase" of their life finding a number of other people in a similar "phase" and instead of moving on to the next "phase" they re-enforce each other's current "phase".
As an example, this means a person who would temporarily feel insecure about their "gender" (maybe 1 transgender person in a 1000) and who would normally get to ignore it, now these people are a lot more likely to find support for their current "phase" online and decide to follow through.
What does this say about people?
We are all sheep that find like minded peers to help us conform to our current state of mind.
In the past it was much harder to stray away from "traditional" view of world but now it is much easier and more accessible.
The problem is not with people following through and embracing different view of the world, the problem is that they are now expecting everyone else to "embrace" their new view of the world and themselves.
While it is perfectly valid to expect to be treated equally in the view of the "law", I believe it is equally invalid to force your view of the world onto other people.
Let's be blunt - if I believe I am GOD and control the world, I cannot reasonably expect other people to accept this and conform to my wishes.
The "woke" culture is trying to do the something similar, is is no longer enough to be equal = now "woke" people expect everyone to accept that their "woke" view of the world is valid and whatever other views may exist are irrelevant.
This is, in my opinion, just an immature and narrow minded expectation as the old no-homosexual, no-transgender views that existed in the past.
What you see yourself as right now is your problem and other people can perceive you however they see fit.
We are all most likely just a bunch of assholes anyway so leave everyone else alone and live your life.

> The problem with the narrative that the parties switched places is that most of their policies didn’t change. When Strom Thurmond switched parties, Democrats didn’t go from supporting the New Deal to opposing it.

To the extent there was a switch, it was between the pre-New Deal alignment and the alignment after the end of the double (New Deal and Civil Rights) realignments, Thurmond was from a constituency that was with the Democrats before either realignment and that left with the Civil Rights realignment.

> Their policies are much the same as they were when they were the party of the Klan.

Their politics on racial issues aren’t the same as before the Civil Rights realignment, and their policies on economic issues and the role of the federal government outside of race aren’t the same as before the New Deal realignment; those two realignments overlapped, as the New Deal realignment hadn’t finished shaking out when the Civil Rights realignment (which itself took almost exactly 30 years to settle out after the usually-cited 1964 kickoff) started. Note that the rumblings of the Civil Rights realignment, while usually timed to 1964, were evident earlier, but no one else was welcoming the disaffected Democrats until after 1964, and the tension was very much with the new people and ideas being brought in due to the New Deal realignment.
