The dark mode handling has been the worst thing about Gnome for a long time, only getting worse with GTK4.

In practice, there is no problem if a teacher shows video incidentally including a straight couple. If it contains a gay couple, however, suddenly that could count as "classroom instruction" of sexual orientation. The teachers are left with the unenviable position of interpreting a vague law, resulting in it being safest to exclusively show kids straight couples.
But then, how would you know it’s nonsense without studying it? Are you saying that they should not consider it because you’ve decided it’s wrong? If there is no evidence of it, the conclusion will be “it’s thought to have happened but not at any significant frequency” and that would be it. Then you have a nice source to show people when you feel like ranting about attention-seeking academics instead of just your disapprobation.

I don't get why people are so upset about some particular piece of advice KK generously shared with us.

You don't have to absolutely agree with the author. It's best to take anything through the filter of your own mind. Find pros and cons, think about if it works or not and why.

But most outraged persons are so because the piece of advices don't match their particular view of the world. They don't spend time thinking, they hurry to show outrage, mostly invoking some kind of injustice.

Regardless of whether you're an incoming manager or senior IC, it's a good idea to observe your first few weeks/couple of months in a new team rather than come in suggesting big changes[1]. Yes, things might not be in an ideal situation, but there might be context you're missing which explains why things are the way they are.

Eh, mass transit here mostly works. Some lines in some cities are over capacity, and uncomfortable at peak hour, but 1) still beats sitting in traffic 2) there's lots of work and infrastructure projects being done to improve the situation.

Crossrail, new longer trains a few years back in London. Paris similarly built a new metro line (14), extended it a lot, is a building a whole bunch of new metro lines ( Grand Paris Express) to better serve the suburbs, and is improving signaling to make trains more frequent. And of course lots of alternative infrastructure like proper biking lanes.

The biggest issue for which there isn't yet a good solution is air quality in old tunnels, but masks probably help with that.
> This is a description of rape, there is no point in discussing the hypothetical including whether the man "acquires" the woman (as if she were property), otherwise.

Huh? No-one said anything about ‘acquiring’ people. In Jewish law women are not property, nor should they be (as if it needs to be said).

And as I said, it is wrong to assert that ‘there is no point in discussing the hypothetical’. The scholars quoted in the Talmud regularly discussed hypothetical, bizarre and impossible situations in order to set general guidelines and clarify edge cases in the law. This is but one of very very many examples of the practice, and I don’t see the need to give a special justification for why this one should be considered.

One additional point which I should probably make clearer: here, we are considering a hypothetical case where the described scenario literally happened, as a matter of fact rather than imagination. (As in, say, the whole thing was witnessed by several other people who agree that the man did literally fall off a roof.) We are not considering it as an excuse, because that would be governed by a whole different set of laws.

Trader Joe’s is not a grocery store for middle class people. It’s a high end convenience store. Unless you’re really well-off, you only buy a few select items from there occasionally.

1. re: the first part, many people want something plug and play. and even if they were plug and play, the problem is that the user experience (on windows at least) with online drives generally sucks.

windows for sure doesn't hide latency well (CIFS is bad, SIMBA etc. are worse), and most apps are written as if the disk was local, and assume, for example, accessing a file only takes a few ms. if the server is 80ms away, and you do 2 "wow" accesses per second (e.g. the open file common dialog listing a directory and poking files for various attributes or icons) serially, suddenly your UI locks up for _seconds_ (joel spolsky summarizes this well in his article on leaky abstractions.) ditto saving any file; how can you stay updated on the ever growing wow library? sure for some random memes of a few hundred k it's fine, but doing work on large repertoire of Owen Wilson "WOW"s on an online drive feels like walking around with cinder blocks tied to your feet. anyway, the point of that rant was that WOW API uses an _online_ hosted version which resolves within 20ms, much faster than using the mouse to find files in an online mounted drive, which is an important difference :)

2. true, if you're both not at your computer and on another computer without net access, this won't replace a usb drive :) but the case i'm worried about is being, for example, on a server you own, and the wow api will let you get the most recent version of your wows at the time, and will work on any scripts and crons you write (without you having to physically copy anything or really do anything to your server rack.)

> I was bullish on remote education prior to COVID, but interacting with the output of remote learning (at work and in volunteer work) has completely changed my mind. COVID was nowhere near a perfect experiment, but what evidence we can glean overwhelming contributes to evidence to the "remote learning sucks for at least a majority of students of all ages" side of this debate.

I feel it's still rather early to say that, we're still on at the optimization level but it's clear things definitely need to be improved (I still haven't received my final scores despite knowing I have 1st honors for my first year with a plugin that has a SQL lookup), but with that said I also got to sit in Master level lectures in AI and ML at Stanford with Dr. Andrew Ng while I was attending my intro courses and for not much money I could have gotten credit for it, too.

I think this appeals most to autodidacts as we get to choose what and how I want to learn, which as a self-taught programmer helps a lot to stay motivated. I'm on a Performance based admission enrollment: previous fintech founder, with professional experience in a mega-corp after being head-hunted for said fintech startup.

It could also be because I was so deeply disillusioned with my first BSc in Biology that I see this as a more suitable outcome for a working professional; I had launched my 2nd business my Junior year of HS and it was starting to get quite a bit of traction in the middle of my Freshman year. University was always my plan B and I treated as such, but since I was paying for it I valued flexibility over actual substance--my discipline and focus as a cellular and molecular biologist was widely used in research but despite going to a good research university in the middle of the Capital of biotech (San Diego) it was woefully underwhelming.

I still speak with my one of my Biochem professors and things haven't progressed much from back then, either.

In my experience after having worked at a megacorp in tech that came from an open-source project (Bitcoin, or Blockchain) I just don't think the on-campus model has done much to earn my trust either. People with MSc and PhDs were showing some incredibly sophomoric mistakes with even basic things like annotations that I thought were understood when you started to make learn to make commits on github. I could make a prototype with limited supervision, despite being forced to do it in Soliditiy which remains a horribly buggy lang, where as they couldn't do much without lots of hand-holding from someone that was forced to learn how to code from free tutorials, youtube videos, hanging out #IRC and tons of hours on Stack overflow.

I self admit I'm not even very good as a developer either, I just knew what I didn't know and knew where to look and how to ask the right questions: which is something I took away from a lecture in a PhD level Virology class I sat in by accident my senior year in University.

Yeah, the answer is no. Make an effort and try to articulate what you're trying to say by text. Make an effort

Harmonicas are amazing instruments. At first people assume them to be like toys (you can buy really cheap ones everywhere) and initially the concept seems really easy: 10 holes, drawing air produces some notes and blowing air produces other notes. But the more you get into it, the more amazing it gets. Soon you discover that you can bend notes by positioning your tongue in a specific way and your repertoire increases tremendously. You learn about overbending, tongue blocking, the "Wawa" sound you make covering the flow of the air with your hand rhythmically (don't remember if that has a name)...

I knew very little about music when I decided to play the harmonica. I looked for an instrument that required little maintenance, were easy to transport and easy to play everywhere. So I decided to learn to play the harmonica by myself. It's easy to start with it, but it gets challenging when you try to learn those techniques mostly because you can't see inside people's mouths to see what they are doing and you aren't used to force your tongue to do those specific movements. When you see what people can do with it, it can be jaw dropping. I'm still a beginner at it but it's so rewarding after practising a lot to get your first bending, to reproduce songs you have learned just by muscle memory, to sound a little bit closer to those blues masters... definitely something worth to try in my opinion.

> 3d printed houses are a silly idea. Cost of construction is not the problem, the problem is zoning, NIMBY, low interest rates, and tax policies that favor long-term owners.

I think it's part of the problem, consider the massive boom/bust cycles and material shortages that occur in this Industry. I used to do framing in the off-season of my farming apprenticeship and I can tell you cost of construction and labour is a MASSIVE cost because things always run longer than expected.

I think that 3D printing can achieve several things, but you're right the latter issues are a major problem in major cities in SV, but honestly that place is such a cesspool that I don't even put it into my calculus anymore.

As Starlink gets rolled out more and more, I think development in more rural areas will seem more favorable than major cities.
What we call “free will” consists of a multitude of forces we have no control over.

Look at your choices and try to find an independent entity making a decision.

You will likely notice your conditioning and preferences, beliefs, emotions, thoughts, physiological and psychological state in the moment, your environment, habits, trauma patterns, all collaborating toward one thing or another.

“Free will” is a shortcut for all these forces we have mo control over. Even when we explicitly feel we’re in control - usually the goal this control serves is not in our control. We don’t choose our preferences, tastes, morality, desires, or thoughts.

Paradoxically, in this complete absence of “choice” as we understand it, lies freedom.
I'm curious by what standard the film's production sexually exploited the actors, and it's a serious accusation. On first approximation, having watched the film and due to the fact nobody has been prosecuted by and government for the film, I'm inclined to disagree.

Uncomfortable ideas, for vulnerable people, I guess would be the kinds of ideas that make them vulnerable in the first place. E.g., that same-sex relationships are against God or against the natural order of things, or that women should naturally be subservient to men, or only have themselves to blame for sexual violence. I've heard that there are forums on the Internet where such ideas are explored freely.

Edit: A forum that bans discussions like that, will probably be seen as left-leaning by some.

>> When it comes to deciding how plans will unfold or the way that organisations will run, true to form, the extroverts speak up and call the shots.

This is absolutely nothing to do with introversion. Introverts can, and should, assert themselves. I say this as quite an extreme introvert. Being an introvert is separate from being weak/quiet/unassertive. Mixing the concepts is almost insulting.

I think there are a few types of people who want to go back to the office (and it’s nothing to do with introverts/extroverts):

1. People who think working from home during the pandemic == normal remote work.

2. People who like to be around others when they work but don’t want to put the effort in to find a co working space they could work from and new work friends.

3. People who have no social life outside of work and have come to consider their colleagues their close/only friends (even if their colleagues don’t see it the same way).

Often, that's not even being extroverted, that's being lazy and valuing your time more than anyone else's.

If I had a penny for every time I say "please check the channel topic and link bar it's in there" I could quit work.

The worst of all is people who ask extremely obvious questions. If you use GitHub Enterprise with SAML, you need to "authorize" every PAT and SSH key you use to pull enterprise repos. If you don't, GitHub will even tell you right on the command line that you need to do this and adds a link to authorize that particular credential. And yet not a month goes by that someone will paste the full message with the link to their solution and complain that their GitHub account doesn't work. Preferably with a team mention so you pull everyone out of focus because you were too lazy to actually read the error message.

I really wish some tools like Slack put more work into enabling and, to some degree, enforcing asyncronous communication.
by changing your attitude towards life. Ruminating on past which cannot be changed is meaningless, if there is any lesson to be learnt from past learn it and move on.
