bad bean muzzle discipline

it’s a british/bbc-ism I learned the last time I saw a headline like this

Sometimes things aren’t obvious unless you already have the knowledge. If an AI tool tells a young person cleaning their first apartment to combine household cleaners, are they stupid for doing so? Maybe. They may not have the experience to know. Stupid people deserve to live free from harm too, and we’re all a little stupid.

There’s a balance to be struck.

TECHNICALLY, there is no such thing as a pull request in git. That’s a Github convention. It’s really a merge request

e: drat someone already out-pedantic’d me

Just #3 by the looks of it

oh yeah? do a .7z now 😏

e: ah, you created the tar first i see now. i bet you know how to decompress a .tar.gz by memory every time

I like this thought experiment and think about this a lot. However this does nothing to remotely indicate the existence of the Abrahamic god. People tell you with certainty that god exists and he’s three persons and jesus rose from the dead yada yada. That’s a complete fantasy derived from literally nothing.

No proof but still believe? Faith.

Not believing in something that has zero evidence requires no faith. I don’t need faith to tell you Cthulu isn’t real

It doesn’t require faith to NOT believe in something. It requires faith to accept religion which cannot be proven.

“Concentration camp” evokes the Nazi style death camps. The USA’s version of this was/is decidedly less about mass extermination of a race. Still a concentration camp, still repugnant. I think the terminology is loaded and it makes it harder for people to understand. Not to mention the dearth of education we have which certainly isn’t helping…

I have had the good fortune of being borderline gay with all my friends for my whole life. I wish it upon everyone

You’re not wrong. I think if anything this is making fun of men who fall down the hate pipeline

This isn’t true as I was mistaken. The gap apparently is 1 cent when adjusting for positions. I think this is an overly simplistic view which unduly shifts the blame to women, when in fact society and our economic systems push women towards particular jobs (or motherhood) and compensates far less.

Hers a source I linked elsewhere:

https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2023/03/01/the-enduring-grip-of-the-gender-pay-gap/

I’m mistaken on that point then, though there is still a measurable gap. There is a large disparity in the “unadjusted” numbers which the article you sent notes is just as important as the adjusted one. It represents a power disparity. Ty for the correction

Here’s another reliable source:
https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2023/03/01/the-enduring-grip-of-the-gender-pay-gap/

The gap exists between identical positions – that’s like the whole thing

I think it’s phrased like this because it’s less acceptable for men to express feelings like sadness or loneliness. men and boys who are lonely and alienated can more easily fall down the Andrew Tate/4Chan/Jordan Peterson/blackpill pipeline which yields violent extremist behavior. Obviously it’s not only men

my friends and i can never get past one or two quotas before we’re eliminated. we end up drowning on the way back to the ship or not finding enough scrap in time ;-; still fun though

To be fair, heading off implications of racism first and then saying “Russians” still reads poorly to me. I see now that wasn’t OPs intent, and we agree

You think Red Hat & friends are just all bad sysadmins? Source hut maybe…

I think there’s a bit of both: poorly optimized/antiquated sites and a gigantic spike in unexpected and persistent bot traffic. The typical mitigations do not work anymore.

Not every site is and not every site should have to be optimized for hundreds of thousands of requests every day or more. Just because they can be doesn’t mean that it’s worth the time effort or cost.

Im sorry for assuming! You said “Russians” and I’ve seen lots of people not differentiate between the despots in power and the people who live under their fist, and it makes me sad.
