I get how it’s possible, but this is Google. Surely they have decades of experience at keeping a website up no matter what happens!
But how does this happen? Surely Google has the ability to make highly available systems that are resistant to power going out at one of the three locations (as per the article).
I have had several neighbours grow pest trees, I don’t actually know what they are called or how to describe them. Normally a pale blotchy trunk, reasonably bright green leaves, with a jagged edge of the leaf. They drop seeds all over the neighbourhood and before you know it the neighbour has their tree in the powerlines.
Not strictly related to your story but it made me think of these horrible trees.
What kind of lighting are you putting in?
Slightly related, but in having a bit of a read of wikipedia on this subject, today I learnt about waka hurdling, jumping waka over wooden beams set in the water.
View of Maori waka (canoes) in a hurdle race on the Waikato River at the Ngaruawahia Regatta. A group of people line the river banks to watch. A bridge crosses the river in the right background. Taken by Albert Percy Godber circa 1910.
Yeah this was part of the article. Basically we can do it well, we (most of the world) just don’t.
They say that awkward questions from kids are a good way to identify societal issues (as in if it’s hard to answer because the answer paints society in a bad light).
Today I got asked why the dog doesn’t wear a seatbelt in the car. I wasn’t quite sure how to answer, since I think the reason is that we simply value the lives of our animal family members less than the human family members.
I like to read the bad reviews. I know everyone has different tastes. A constructive bad review can sell me a game if the things that person didn’t like aren’t a deal breaker for me.
Thanks! They were done in python using a script that someone else gave me, so I can’t take credit for them 🙂
Large scale solar is also taking off.
Possibly related to the whole mental load thing: https://english.emmaclit.com/2017/05/20/you-shouldve-asked/
When you have two jobs you don’t really want a third.
My assumption is that they get milled at one place, shipped in big bags to another factory to package it into smaller bags, then shipped to supermarkets (probably after being shipped to a distribution centre).
It’s hard to know overall for Lemmy, but I know that both Lemmy.ca and Lemmy.nz have surveyed their members.

Both were around 87% men, where as this selfhosting one is like 96% men.
I would guess it’s explained by society. Women are less likely to be in STEM which seems to almost be a prerequisite for Lemmy and possibly self-hosting, and of those women in STEM, and ( despite what you might think about your own house) there is still a societal expectation of them running the household and doing most of the household chores, even when they work full time. A third job, selfhosting, may be too much.
Damn, and I thought the gender ratio on Lemmy was bad.
We started to go to Bin Inn for this, but then COVID happened and we never went back. I should try to make a special effort to get back to using them, because you’re right, a lot of the time the packaging is not necessary at all.
Companies are buying 25kg bags of flour and repackaging it into smaller bags, when we should just be taking a container to a store and scooping in what we want.
If you’re seeing it and you’re not subscribed here there you must be browsing Local or All rather than your subscribed communities.
So the answer is that you’re seeing a lot of posts because someone is making a lot of posts, people are upvoting them (the game is from 2016 but it’s still very popular and still getting new content updates) and you’re viewing feeds where they show.
Ideally, yes, if we are talking about communicating critical information to patients.
However, the first issue is that the translator needs to be medically trained. If they aren’t, they risk translating critical technical information wrong. We can’t even get enough medical staff, let alone extras to be dedicated translators.
There are also other circumstances where I don’t think a certified translator should be needed. For example, day to day interactions with a patient that aren’t about communicating critical medical information (e.g. asking how they are doing). I think most nurse interactions with patients would not justify a translator if the nurse spoke their language. Many doctor interactions would, but those are generally more structured and could have a translator organised in advance, unlike most nurse interactions.
But also, as I mentioned there is likely a valid problem the memo is trying to address. The issue I see here is that the memo just decides the solution is that everyone has to speak English. This is just bad problem solving. They need to address the specific issues not have blanket rules that make the environment worse for patients.
I suspect speaking to patients isn’t the problem (it’s not specifically mentioned in the memo), and so translators may not actually be relevant.
Oooh, I’m going to have to try that one! Though they might actually want to clean the house since I often use “we can’t do <fun thing> until the house is clean”, so there might be an expectation of doing fun things!
Who can be quiet the longest works briefly on my kids, the only problem is their capability is pretty low.
So is this some good natured rivalry or is Lawson being a dick?
