> The more subtle effect is that the man has less quality time to allow him to feel close to other men, and he may not even realize it as it's happening. The same is of course true with the sexes swapped.

Not as strongly. "Women spaces" are much stronger established and men are much more strongly punished for trying to invade them. There aren't many women-only activities that I can imagine a woman trying to bring a husband into. Maybe baby showers are becoming a normal exception, but it is ultimately a one off event.

>I don't believe that making friends in adulthood is as difficult as people make it out to be. Yes, it's more difficult, but I'm not a fan of the excuses people make in this regard.

They aren't really excuses, they are simple facts. Meetups are a revolving door of different people who only come once or twice. Can't make a deep friendship that way. I don't know if that's a generational issue, but it's a common trend I've seen over the years. Friendships aren't like learning to cook or losing weight; it's not a solitary activity completely in your power. If another person simply isn't seeking that friendship there's nothing I can do.

and note I am a late 20's single male, so I don't have any other relationships "holding me back", per se. No pets, no SO's, no kids. Just a dude living alone in a house trying to reach out. Turns out there's not many hands reciprocating that reach. At least not in my demographic

It’s fascinating, isn't it? “Experts” are more than willing to dish out hundreds of dollars for finer microns and consistent particle sizes, and even measure those sizes using LASERS. They will go through the trouble to make fancy edited videos with all sorts of dubious claims about taste. But all of these people are totally unwilling to do blind taste tests and release their data, and as such we find a massive lack of real studies on the internet. People will make every excuse under the sun to not run blind taste tests on the effect of different coffee grinders. Look at this guys list of reasons… lol he states that he needs “people from around the world” in order to make such a study accurate.(https://towardsdatascience.com/double-blind-coffee-studies-a...).

Tomographic detection has been around for some time. There was a company that commercialized this and had a more or less real-time Harry Potter style “Marauder’s Map” of your home for a security system but they did a lousy job commercializing it.

Original RA had a tendency to devolve into tank spamming. That takes skill. But it's closer to tactical than strategic. Does OpenRA deal with this in any way?
It’s easiest to see the distinction in otherwise-similar systems, so I’ll choose Rust generics (statically-typed) and C++ templates (dynamically-typed).

In Rust, the generic constraints (the traits that the type must satisfy) are a contract, part of the signature. The caller must satisfy them, and then the callee knows nothing else about the type it has received. Therefore, changes inside the body of the generic method will never† cause any code that uses the function to stop compiling.

In C++, templates don’t have that, so you have to seek knowledge of what conditions your type must satisfy some other way, and it’s easy to accidentally depend on additional details (since it’s not statically checked), so that changes in the template that you thought were harmless actually break someone else’s code somewhere else that uses your template in ways you didn’t expect.

https://gist.github.com/brendanzab/9220415 has a decent example, though it’s from 2014 and refers to Zero and One traits that were removed from the standard library before Rust 1.0, and the compiler messages would be better today as well.

—⁂—

† In practice there’s at least one way of leaking details, so post-monomorphisation errors that aren’t compiler bugs can actually happen, though it’s very rare: if you return an `impl Trait`, the body leaks whether it implements auto traits like Send.

For table service it’s probably the anticipation, plus the mutual sizing up, that is unpleasant. That would be a low-grade feeling during the whole experience rather than a brief unpleasant moment. I’m talking about others’ experiences, not yours, to be clear.

The depressing thing is looking at the performance cost of so many of these mitigations that are fundamentally due to the use of unsafe languages.

It results in a somewhat pernicious effect: a person can compare their unsafe language to a safe one and say “see it’s faster” because the safe language is being subject to the same hardware costs but they’re unnecessary.

The lack of memory safety in many core languages means we take mitigations that increase memory usage, increase processor complexity, and reduce overall performance.

> The results confirm the North African Humid Periods occurred every 21,000 years and were determined by changes in Earth's orbital precession. This caused warmer summers in the Northern Hemisphere, which intensified the strength of the West African Monsoon system and increased Saharan precipitation, resulting in the spread of savannah-type vegetation across the desert.

So… as we finally exit the current ice age we should expect a green Sahara?
I've always interpreted the Eden myth as a memory of the development of agriculture.

Before agriculture, people lived as hunters and (mainly) gatherers. The life of a Hunter-gatherer is, surprisingly, mostly leisure, because of the abundance of food and the low population density. Even Kalahari Bushmen, who had been forced to live in the dessert, were found to average only about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours of productive labor a day in a study [1].

In the bible, God's punishment is [2]:

“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.

It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.

By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”

Which seems very clearly to indicate that being cast out of Eden means that people now must work in the fields and do agriculture. Agriculture ends up requiring much more labor for worse quality food, but it generates more calories. This enables classes to develop and enforces an end to nomadic life, because the fields must be tended and the harvest stored and protected.

> JWTs have also had their fair share, though I think they were mostly implementation bugs that have mostly been ironed out at this point.

The most famous JWT issue, to my mind, was people implementing JWT and -- as per spec -- accepting an encryption mode of "none" as valid.

That could be described as an "implementation bug", but it can also be described as "not an implementation bug" - all your JWT functionality is working the way it's supposed to work, it's just not doing the thing that you hoped it would do.

What's the alternative? No one who says that is saying they did original research, they're saying they searched around and got what they believe to be at least a consensus among the body of experts they trust.

Like I agree the problem sucks but I have no idea what a solution looks like. For fields someone is totally unfamiliar with they simultaneously don't have enough knowledge to evaluate the truth of a claim nor the knowledge to evaluate if someone is qualified and trustworthy enough to believe them. It's turtles all the way down -- especially because topics of any interest you can find as many experts as you care to of whatever qualification you demand making all sorts of contradictory claims.
Men don't need support systems the way women do. Men need to take charge of our lives or we feel worthless. A lot of these men just need something that's theirs and not approved by anyone, and something other men do. Friendships are found with other men in spaces where they don't feel the need to apologize. We need support systems and friendships, but we don't make them directly deliberately. We take charge of our lives, do things we want to do without asking permission, and meet other like minded men that way. You will not find fulfillment following the Approved Path™.

Sure, but if I was to replace "church" with "school" then I wouldn't be getting half of the downvotes I get despite there not being any real difference in how the affinity clubs at a Church/Synagogue vs. PTA (at least back in the 90s) worked.

Parallel construction only works if you've actually committed a crime and left evidence somewhere it can be plausibly found - i.e. "a random search of the public woods near your area found a shallow grave, and tire-tracks matching your car" - but the search was conducted because what actually happened was you were telling a guy "yes I definitely killed Tony and buried him in the woods".

People keep using the term as though it implies some legal means of fabricating evidence against someone: which is ridiculous because if you're willing to fabricate evidence, you don't need to actually find any.

It's also worth noting that in the case of incidental wifi surveillance, it's likely the plain-sight doctrine would apply: if you're being imaged and positioned by broadcasts you yourself are making and nearby devices can receive, then this would be ruled in plain sight and rightly so (I can't stop my routers and devices from detecting nearby devices as part of interference avoidance).

Oddly enough, household energy consumption is often stated in kWh/year. Being that hours per year is a bit under 10,000 one can convert this kWh/year ridiculousness onto simple W, and the resulting amount is only one order of magnitude different. But I guess it helps people annualize their their electric bill (monthly statements being in kWh) without much math.

I can generally order anything I want, pickup or delivery, through GrubHub. Of course they track me; I pay them and they find me at home for delivery.

But I can also sit on a bus and order from the restaurant that's at my next stop, 20 minutes away. Google Maps has become great for this, actually. You find a restaurant and you hit the "Order" button, and there's a menu of choices for who to order from. You could GrubHub, DoorDash, Uber Eats, or you could order from the restaurant's website.

Restaurant websites have variable quality, mostly very poor, unless they're a franchise, or signed up with an aggregator, but hey, it's not an app.
>Sure, but if I was to replace "church" with "school" then I wouldn't be getting half of the downvotes I get

my condolences, but ultimately I can only speak for myself. I was raised Catholic so it's not like Ive never set foot in a church. It's just not a scene I want to be around. For me, I'd be just as hesitant if a school hosted as Ski club as if a church did for the reasons I described. Maybe it'd e different if it was my alma mater offering various alumni activities (of course, to advertise donations), but I am very far away from that campus.

>The conversation is about the "male loneliness epidemic" so fathers and older men, not just 20/30's adults should be included as well.

Sure. But I have to admit that I am not yet a father nor older man (at least, if we define "older man" as 40+. I can't speak for them (yet). I only wanted to chime in that I don't reject churches because "they are uncool". I'm not older but I am well past the age of caring about such matters. And I don't think any of my immediate friends would give that reason either.
