the lead dev has gone on the record that using singular they in the documentation is putting politics into his project, so i expect it to be possibly technically interesting (emphasis on possibly), but no effort put into accessibility and with a fucking horrendous dev community.
i think the way they want it to be understood is “if elected, i will so thoroughly address all of the issues you care about that you don’t have to vote on them again”, which is kind of reasonable until you try working out how that would happen
clearly foreign adversaries are trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids
i know at one point they were quite proud to have a federal (DHS i think?) cybersecurity department on there. like, there was an announcement. this was a couple years ago, so i guess stuff may have changed since then, but i don’t trust like that.
infosec dot exchange. they gleefully welcomed feds on there
in a week he’ll be talking about how the woke communists tried to kill him and we need to return the favor to them
from what that link says, it sounds like the rule was made mostly to get around employers saying “this part of your paycheck is a bonus, not a wage, so it’s exempt from the time and a half rule”
so, start with:
x = 0.999…
now multiply each side by 10
10x = 9.9999…
now we subtract x from the left side, and 0.999… from the right, which is fine because they are equal:
9x = 9
and from there it should be fairly obvious that x is also equal to 1, which means 0.999… is also equal to 1

that’s an ergonomic nightmare. the keyboard is too high and the screen is too low. if you use that for more than a couple minutes at a time your shoulders will hate you.
youtube makes a lot of money off of nazi(-adjacent) content. it’s a core part of their business model at this point
i mean, the way the supreme court has operated historically (and especially in the last few years) means they can delete basically any law they don’t like, but you are correct that the decriminalisation of homosexuality is only based on a court verdict. many states never removed the relevant laws from their books, so they could in theory be enforced again if the court changes their precedent.

i know you probably know this, but in case anyone has not made the connection, 23andme (and related services) are trying to make real the link between ethnicity and biology which is the fundamental project of (psuedo-)scientific racism. once you have tied ethnicity to a certain set of DNA markers, it is much easier to argue that certain ethnicities are inherently certain traits, which is doing racists work for them.
ethnicity has always been a social and cultural construction with only incidental correlation with biology.
i’ve only been playing factorio lately. this is my current seablock map. trying to get the train based city blocks going. i’ve got basic resources going and about to start science blocks.
it’s white supremacist settler colonialism with a healthy dose of anti-semitic conspiracy theory
to go back to the original post, where she is getting angry at zionists (presumably about the genocide israel is doing), i care much more whether you are doing anything about it than what emotions you have about it. different people work differently. i’d rather someone contribute to a local org and be ignorant of global struggles instead of spending all of their time getting angry at people online so that they contribute nothing.
i’m talking about trying to break a habit that you find negative in your life, and some specific things that can help with that, not saying that you should do these things on this site.
the general advice people have given here has been pretty good, but i want to share a couple things that have worked for me to disrupt these kinds of negative habits:
this is how you get no-call/no-shows
