It has less to do with your camera injecting viruses. There are other attack surfaces. For instance someone could send you a malicious Jpeg and if your Adobe application has a vulnerability and you decide to open that file, it could be exploited.

The problem is that games as they are usually developed require a lot of investment before the systems in them are supposed to gel together and become a playable product. If it becomes clear that it's kind of crappy at that point, there's a huge incentive to just finish it up as best as they can and throw it out on the market to recoup a bit of the costs.

Vitalik looks good in a field shit. Don't forget Vitalik bro behavior caused the ETH and ETH Classic split - the DAO valid transaction that was meant to be immutable all of a sudden was reversed as in Slack (or was it IRC?) as king and controlling Vitalik said jump and everyone (or at least 60% of the decentralized network of friends) said how high - this then mapped to the ETH Classic split and all sorts of meta discussions but but but well he took control because he was acting in the greater good and therefore the miners acted in greater good as by design so we're still cool and kinda of immutable right? ... right? - fuck that sillyness.

"Radiation" here refers to thermal radiation --- the direct radiant heat released through atmospheric friction and blast.

The shockwave itself is also radiant energy, in this case a kinetic overpressure wave.

Net impact effects are "wind blast, overpressure shock, thermal radiation, cratering, seismic shaking, ejecta deposition, and tsunami":

<https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/201...>

Remember that "radiation" simply refers to any effect that radiates outward from an initial point or source, say, a radiator. Yes, common parlance has abbreviated "ionizing nuclear radiation" as "radiation", but that's only one of numerous types of radiant energy.

The thing is, basic algebra notation has two major advantages over ad-hoc operators in some Haskell library: (1) it is widely taught and understood and extremely widely applicable, and (2) each operator has a standard name that is widely explained.

In contrast, most Haskell notation I've seen is either an ad-hoc invention for some library, or it is an ASCII version of notation in a niche domain like category theory. Even Haskell's >>= operator for flatMap/bind seems to be an invention, as far as I can tell the equivalent concept in CT is Kleisli composition, denoted by a sharp sign and the regular composition operator (as far as Wikipedia shows - I'm not formally trained in CT).

Additionally, people rarely if ever give a proper name to this notation in Haskell, making it completely impenetrable to even represent the formulas in your mind. How am I supposed to read `user1 ^. name` ? When I see `∇⨯f` I know how to read it (del cross f, or nabla cross f, or curl f) because that was an explicit part of how I was taught the operation (and note that it is not an arbitrary digraph, it can really be computed as the cross product of the pseudo-vector nabla and f), but Haskell tutorials and documentation completely skip this step, in my experience.
Also not OP, and also similar experience. Most of my interviews are an hour or two of conversation, sometimes with a "I've been told I have to ask.. " techy question but never involves any actual code/whiteboard. Several times the interviewer has said something to the effect of "I won't insult you by asking you to do a tech test, it's clear to me that you understand the work" or similar. One occassion (some years ago now) I've replied to a request to complete a tech test with a "Would you rather look at my open source code/contributions?" which they did and I didn't need to perform the test.
The assumption that this is inherently sex related is where the issue starts. This is why the discussion shifted from talking about sexuality to talking about gender nearly 20 years ago. Ideas like boys cannot wear skirts or play with barbies are present from a young age, yet we don't accuse people opposed to boys with skirts/barbies of thinking about said boys future sexuality.
Why not? If something illegal/destigmatized which has some advantages becomes legal I would absolutely expect there to be an explosion of people who now start adopting that thing.

Let's forget "ETH PoW" as it is completely irrelevant. All of the community has moved on to PoS, all the relevant projects were kept on the fork, etc. To talk about "ETH PoW" on the same footing as ETH or BTC shows that you are basing your arguments on ideology and not objective truth.

Besides that, your breakdown has other problems:

- None of these three criteria you presented are binary attributes. How decentralized and secure are BTC vs ETH? How performant is ETH vs BTC?

- One could easily argue that PoS is more decentralized than BTC ever will. The capital and resources to start a viable node on Ethereum is a lot lower than it is to get a sustaninable/profitable BTC miner.

I think "pushing heteronormativity" doesn't need to be a conscious, deliberate act and it doesn't need to be anything related to sex.

Could be part of the Tavistock Center[0] story?

The state of affairs around transsexuality is horrifying.

> then this opens new doors to examining the behaviour of other illnesses such as gender dysphoria that are statistically over represented. This is probably going to get downvoted to oblivion, because nobody wants to confront the idea that we can _learn_ to want to be another gender.

It's very, very simple. There always have been about 10% of people who are left-handed - but for a time in history, teachers and society (sometimes brutally) repressed that and forced left-handed children to use their right hand. Once that relaxed and children were left to freely be who they were, the left-handed ratio went back to its historic norm [1].

Obviously, it's been the same for gay, trans and other sexuality/gender-nonmainstream people. They have always been part of human history - from the old Greeks [2] to early Islamic and Hindu ages [3], but as long as there was an heir available for a long time many simply didn't bother to care or looked away in historic Catholic regions. The repression only went really bad with the Nazis, who destroyed the Institute for Sexology [4] and later on with anti-LGBT laws still remaining on the books for decades, then the anti-gay panic with AIDS, and only nowadays public opinion is beginning to relax.

The problem is that Conservatives not just don't get that simple historic fact, they actively deny it based on their morals, and as a result young LGBT people have shockingly high suicide rates (in thoughts, attempts and success [5]).

> You're going to google what the error message says anyway

If an error message says:

syntax error: unexpected {, expecting )

...I don't have to google anything. I know that there is a '{' that shouldn't be there, or that something else is missing before it, done.

If the error message would instead read:

syntax error: unexpected NAMIKAKKO, expecting MARUKAKKO

...then I would indeed have to google it, unless I just so happened to know the japanese words for "wave bracket" and "round bracket"

My point is: a good message about an error as simple as an unexpected or missing syntactical element can convey all the information I need to fix the problem, without requiring me to invoke a supremely powerful search engine, indexing the largest repository of collective human knowledge in existence, to make sense of it.

Is it really a surprise after taking away fundamental bodily autonomy from half of the population? That is a government overreach, if anything.

Normativity by definition is related to actions/outcomes that society deems good/desirable/permissible; non-normativity, the opposite. Societal goals are always a moving target, so it follows that normativity is as well.

My dad still uses language like "C'mon! Be a man and do {this thing}."

Personally, I believe when I'm old and crotchety the winds of society will leave my language at something like "C'mon! You should do {this thing}." and leave the gender out of it entirely.

You can practice presenting differently in safe social situations, that's reversible. (e.g. crossdressing)

Trans fem people can remove their facial hair without doing other medical transition steps.

The effects of hormone replacement are so slow that you can safely "try them out" for a month or two and not have a huge permanent burden.

You talk to people and think about it real hard and sleep on it for years. It looks sudden from the outside because there's such a stigma over saying "Hey I'm thinking about trying on a new gender, do you think it would work?"

It's not too different from other body modification like tattoos or vasectomies. You can't fully know for sure, but there is a point where you decide that the risk is worth it, because the potential payoff seems worth it. Then it usually turns out it is. Most "de-transition" cases are people who couldn't afford the monetary cost or social cost of presenting as transgender. It's un-common to transition and then find out you're actually cis.
> which has been debunked

That is, unfortunately, not an argument. To apply your line of thinking to the OP, would you say that "children displaying Tourette's symptoms from watching a YouTuber is a reversal of cause and effect"? The OP does not make that conclusion, and most of this comment section accepts that as well. I, like GP, would be interested to hear how this would be reconciled.
> because nobody wants to confront the idea that we can _learn_ to want to be another gender.

Because we can't. And trust me, I have tried. Trans people are neither "over represented" nor a contagion.

And it's not about "hate speech"; it's about stopping the spread of lies and extremist propaganda. The lie that "being trans is a choice" is just one little moving part in the massive machinery of oppressing, persecuting and killing trans people. You don't need actual hate speech to cause harm.
The fact that an opinion is censored by the means of flagging means that it doesn't have a chance to compete in the "marketplace of ideas".
Yes and me and my wife laugh about it but there is an obvious distinctive preference for kids male and female which will play into sales .. no one is forcing anyone to buy anything and even back in the 80s growing up I knew kids that would buy toys you'd associate with the other gender.
I feel like I'd end up using it on the tram to/from work or at lunch, so that might work for me. I've fought the urge to get one for a while, because I can't accurately assess whether I would genuinely use it, or if my brain just wants the cool nerdy thing :)
