Its worse than that, they didn't issue a cryptocurrency at all. They didn't deliver the product they said they were giving people, thats the reason this is fraud.

All they had to do was create any token on any blockchain - including a new blockchain - and didn't.
“This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.”

How did they identify her? Where is MSG getting the data for their facial recognition? This part is confusing to me (I assume some third party vendor, but that's besides the point). Do they have you upload a photo of yourself? Do they have access to driver license photos? If the latter, that's a serious issue that I think we should be talking about: private companies having access to government biometric data. It's already an issue that the gov can track us, but even bigger if they are giving that data to corporations. I think that's the bigger story here.

I'm guessing it's a combination of yes and no. OLED screens save power on black colors because it can completely shut off the pixels responsible for illuminating that portion of the screen. If you have a slightly brighter color than pure black, the diode will turn on but not at full-brightness.

Technically speaking, you probably stand to save the most power on a purely black background. You're still saving power on other dark colors, but it's probably more noticeable with pure black.
I expect the representatives to represent my interest and make a judgement. I don't expect them to do just exactly what I would have done. When a potential law is drafted and works through the process to become law, it goes through bargaining between legislators.

If the legislators shirk their duties, it is to the extent that they are avoiding unpopularity by redelegating back to me, and I always vote no on referenda unless there is a huge factor of conscience. Which happens apparently once a decade or so.

I don't actually think any trauma specialists actually back this approach to eliminating all triggers for everybody. The general treatment model for traumatic stress issues like this is to steadily reduce the association between the trigger and the trauma so you can eventually go through life without having breakdowns over innocuous stimuli. The "safe space" approach is meant for acute episodes where patients need a supportive area to recover and relax (as in, be removed from stressors so they can come down from the trauma response). But it's not a model for "this is how your life should be from now on."

Its completely fine if you wish to treat your repository like that, but that doesn't make this treatment the only viable and correct way.

There are a lot of people which include their helm package as part of their project repository and even more that generate the changelog from standardized git messages like conventional commits and still wish to persist them in a changelog.md inside of the repository to make completely banal examples spelled out to the letter. It works well and lets you scale these things pretty well inside of a corporation with a lot of teams.

Its completely fine to keep all that out of your automated pipeline, triggering only after these things have occured... but that's not the only viable choice a developer can make and you're very much talking from of an extremely limited perspective if thats your point of view.

That is not a good example since there is presumably only 1 person knocking ("someone"), but there could be multiple people ("them") at the door waiting to come in.

Since you don't know the amount of people waiting to come in, using them would be appropriate.

I agree that the EU has contributed to outlawing democracy on several issues and has replaced it with bureaucracy. Like a silly thing where the city can't directly manage parking fees and needs to instantiate an independent profit-seeking business for that.

However, now after Brexit UK now opened itself to profit-seeking international relations which can be worse than EU-dictated bureaucracy.

You may have misunderstood. There is no way to anonymously access Weixin from China unless you have hacked credentials. You need a phone number. Note that local Weixin and foreign Wechat are not the same. Last time my Mainland friend bought a SIM card the vendor had a government app on his phone, snapped a picture of my friend's face, scanned the ID (身份证) and had him take a fingerprint with a reader he also had connected to his phone. All this data gets uploaded directly to the Chinese government.

There isn't a country in the world which does this. But the details are also not the main point, it's how extremely restricted and controlled simple access to information or forums of free expression is for people in China. Tencent has party officials working within the company. This isn't a regular business as Westerners might imagine it, it's an extended part of the CCP just like any other large corporation under Xi.

Again, people are saying it's no big deal but why would GitHub help them at all? It's not a good cause.

> Most of the bits captured are/will be out of context and useless.

Actual history shows the opposite. The entire reason for Yondr is precisely because people were posting bits that comedians were trying out, and then people were jumping on "so-and-so told an offensive joke!" on Twitter and it becomes a whole thing. Comedians are terrified of getting "cancelled" because they tried wording their joke a different way to see what the audience reaction would be.

If people were just recording "I'm here" clips then Yondr would never have existed.
kanata[1] and komokana[2].

kanata is basically like QMK for any keyboard without the firmware requirement. I use kanata with my trusty old iMac keyboard which is to this day my favourite keyboard of all time. But now I have all the cool QMK-style layers with it.

So that is awesome on its own, but where it gets even better for me, and this is where the seconds have really added up to hours, is that I wrote another piece of software which programmatically changes layers on kanata whenever a different window is focused in my tiling window manager.

This has honestly changed -everything- for me. I no longer have to waste keys on my keyboard to switch layers, I no longer have to -think- about switching layers, I just focus another window with alt+hjkl and whatever keyboard layer I expect for any given application is automatically applied. Definitely one of those "you can never go back" experiences for me.

Sure, an unused $300 milwaukee cordless is a waste, definitely don't buy something like that before you need it. Especially since there's quite a few choices available.

However a 6 piece Wera screwdriver set is $30-35 and easily to justify in any apartment or home and should last dramatically longer than a dollar screw screwdriver and MUCH less likely to cause damage to whatever you are working on. Even building a piece of Ikea furniture and the most minor of repairs (light switches, door hinges, loose chairs, etc) would justify the wera set.

Much better to buy something decent set for $35 than might last a lifetime of light use than the nearly disposable dollar store stuff. Even a small apartment can justify a handful of screwdrivers and allens.

One is that I don't see PayPal support. Typing credit card info into any site not owned by a billion dollar company is a bit scary.

Secondly, and this is just a personal thing, I'm not sure it would support any of my ideas that might be a use case.

Do you have any plans to add the ability to handle membership or paid unique codes? As a lone dev, I would prefer to never touch anyone's financial info.

It would be cool if there was a service that would handle accounts and user data 100% so an app never had to touch it whatsoever.

It could provide Oauth2 SSO or something, but only if the user paid.

Or it could just act as a paid proxy that adds a secret API key plus the user's per-site anonymized ID and membership level.

It could even have an API fot the app to store files on the proxy, which the user would have full access to in their account portal.

That way an app developer never stores any user data at all, you could make a paid app just by making an open access unpaid app and hiding it behind the proxy.

> I've long subscribed to the philosophy that you should buy the cheapest tool you can find and use safely, use it until it wears out, breaks, or your skill surpasses the capability of the tool - and only then should you spend money on high quality tools.

Overall, it's not a bad philosophy. But I can think of a couple of complications here:

- For battery-operated tools, standardizing on one system means you can buy a handful of pricy batteries and share them among many tools. Batteries wear out, and eventually need repeated replacement. And only needing to replace, say, 3 batteries from a single brand is convenient.

- A lot of times, it's possible to buy medium-quality tool sets (say, hex wrenches) for less than $100. I'm literally going to use many of them as long as I live. Why not spend $70 and get something halfway decent, instead of the $30 junk?

- If you're doing a big project (refinishing kitchen cabinets, building a deck, etc), that can easily justify spending a few hundred dollars on a quality key tool. A quality drill/hammer driver pair is game changing, for example. Saves countless hours compared to my old gear.

I had Craftsman power tools until battery replacements were only available from fly-by-night companies and a couple of the tools started failing (after 20 years). I wound up buying a couple of DeWalt tools on sale and they've been rock-solid. So I added a couple more as needed. I tried a Ryobi line trimmer a few years ago, and the battery system failed within two weeks. So I took it back and paid $50 extra for a DeWalt version that has run flawlessly. I could save some money by buying less-used tools from a second, cheaper brand. But that would double my battery replacement costs over the next 20 years, and I'd need to do more research for each purchase.

So sometimes a set of "79 auto tools for one low price!" is a good move. And sometimes, mid-to-high end homeowner gear or even a contractor tool is worth the money.
I meant utopia from their perspective, ironically. Although I think we all have a subjective utopia in mind - if no-one ever spoke again about certain subjects, I personally would consider the world a better place! But I recognize that my opinion isn't the only one that matters, people are messy and still somewhat barbaric at heart, and its an exercise in futility if you think you can legislate your way out of that state. The "greatest ethical minds of our generation" have agreed amongst themselves to embark on this SJW adventure, for realsies. It's an experiment in techno-utopia based on the dogmatic presentism and a confused, crude model of historical value production, and a grossly oversimplified cure. This "cure" depends entirely on synthetic moral reasoning motivate, and power-by-fiat to enforce. It is almost a parody of left-wing extremism, as described by the right:ivory tower reasoning foisted on the rest of us without our consent. Essentially the right wants the freedom to be a bad person if they want to, a racist if they want to, and the left really doesn't want to allow that, but has to tiptoe around issues of freedom of expression.

Personally, I miss the days when the Jewish-led ACLU would come to bat for neo Nazis when local police would violate their free speech rights. This is correct. We must give people the right to be bad people, and say bad things, because no-one can unambiguously define good or bad. This disciplined, principled approach to a notion of freedom seems to have disappeared completely, and within my lifetime! That makes me feel incredibly guilty because, right now, my kids have a much harder road ahead than I did, my son in particular.

Our entire society is running on scams where nobody writes anything down, and any inadvertent records are destroyed through very short retention policies. I worked at an agency whose primary reason for revising a data retention policy was to keep things hidden that FOIA requests threatened to reveal. While that goal was mentioned constantly, it was never put in email or any meeting minutes.

> You're performing a strawman or being overly pedantic and dishonest, when my original post clearly states female gaze/attraction of men in the context of art, a TV show.

That's not true. The first two sentences in your first post:

> Has the creator never been to a gym full of attractive men with fit bodies, and observed women oogling at the men? Has the creator never observed how straight women will oogle at men with handsome faces?

What you are describing is the literal act of gazing. Your next two sentences are about media, but still mostly about the act of gazing. They had nothing to do with how men are portrayed by women directors, which would be the actual female gaze.

> Whether you like it or not, the gaze is in the context of film and not just static art.

I agree. But it's not about the literal act of gazing, which is what your original post was referring to.

Here is a movie plot. Priests of the dark temple, the so called "brothers of shadow", worship their deity Ktulhu that feeds off fear. The priests know that fear physically radiates away your energy in a low frequency spectrum, and their demon can collect this energy. The demon rests deep under the ocean in a particular place that acts as a natural parabolic anthenna for the fear waves. Since the dawn of the mankind, the only mission of the priests has been invoking fear in the masses. The movie ends with the rise of the demon, who promptly sucks all the life from anyone who can fear, those priests including, and then starves to death. However, as it turns out, a tiny group of people weren't suspectible to fear, as they didn't hate, so they survive and begin the new golden age, free of hate and fear, at least in the beginning. The final scene in the movie shows the demon, hibernating deep in the ocean.

> I honestly can't understand why people are so obsessed about types

It's a very powerful sanity check that lets me write correct code faster, avoiding stupid bugs that the unit tests will also, eventually, find.

And, to me, reading the code is much much nicer. Types provide additional context to what's going on, at first glance, so I don't have to try to guess what something is, based on its name:

results: list[SomeAPIResult] = some_api.get_results()

is much easier to grock.
