Uphill, in the snow, both ways

lot of problems, but not diabetes

When people have limited choices to vote on, voting for a or b does not make them like a or b.

It just means it’s a “boiling the frog situation” when gradually changing the goalposts makes people not notice the real issues.

The average American really has not changed that much from the past generations, but the candidates that are allowed to run in either party have drifted rightward.

If I want to vote for green, and I can choose only on a greyscale, my interpretation of which shade of gray might be closest to green might be a personal choice, highly disputed.

Once one sees this pattern it’s very hard to unsee. Much like how web pages are rewritten for google search.

I think it’s important to understand, and learning this will help see through a lot of bs in other issues.

While it’s bad there are crimes being committed in Gaza, the coverup is a first rate teaching opportunity because there are so many public comparisons which are well documented. Many other issues that are given this treatment in mainstream media are harder to pin down, for people outside the loop on a particular issue

A frightening but unlikely happenstance to me and mine. A lot of people experience a lot of things.

When there is a population close to half a billion, it’s a thousand times more likely that a bad traffic accident will devastate

Perhaps this will be hard for an establishment party, in an environment that has suppressed all opposition parties for generations?

Look at it this way, if they wreck the economy, then at least we know if the power brokers are still competent or not, and who is whose figurehead. It would answer so many questions.

I’m just not willing to pay the price for such knowledge

I doubt the normal laws and rules for security clearances will be applied.

For most people, except sub Saharan Africans, we are also talking about our ancestors when talking about neanderthals. Most of those bones we see on museums are probably the great x grandfathers of many people walking past.

Obviously we have no idea what happened over huge parts of deep human pasts, Neanderthals were a sparse population to begin with, and absorbing their people into the rest of humanity just by fucking is certainly a solution

Not so sure, except for a last few holdouts in Spain about 40k years ago, who were probably whipped out by natural catastrophe along with regular humans in that area.

I think we kept diluting their gene pool by having sex with them and out breeding them.

Neighborhood politics, social gatherings, community hotspots has massively declined in the last two generations,

It’s really hard to organize anything face to face?

Too much patriotism is because too little of everything else

I had to check the community before I decided it was a joke.

Still, no telling where the training data came from, or if they started with some established model that might have those

Change texit to tilt

They kept her in jail after she said those 7 words.

Amazing.

Maybe lemmy will grow over time to include more types of people.

Social unrest may evolve this network faster than expected, in particular ways that are not foreseen. So, in my mind there are two paths for lemmy. A stable growth or chaotic .

Edit : unrest in any country that has a lot of lemmy users if alternative social networks clamp down or are unsafe to use

For a supposedly gun infested and ultra violent country, there is an eerie calm lasting for decades.

Most probably this was a one time thing?

Spiders and programmers both need bugs to be able to eat

I spent a lot of time using msdn Microsoft docs for windows and activex c++ back in the day. Faintly envious there are videos in the c# docs.

I changed tech stacks, but comments and examples are awesome to use inside docs. Usually in the php, it’s the comments in the docs that are the best help, and example code and work around can be found there.

But most php depends on the tens of thousands of projects and libraries made others: so the docs one needs is scattered in the dependencies. Some who have good docs (laravel) and some that have no docs , in which case a debugger is best way to learn.

Thanks for talking about broken, it’s on my next read list.

I did enjoy ready player 1; never did ready player 2 out of fright it would not be very good
