“Pro Palestine” protests usually involve destruction or damaging of real estate, furnitures and other properties. I can understand them locking the building down to prevent excessive damage to their stuff they need to operate their main business.

Don’t write yourself off yet, learn metric.

Care to explain?

Thanks for stereotyping. I have and am still paying rent for all my life and the rest of it.

“Should” is meant here for a better/good way do do things. If it is not possible, a “should” just is not applyable, it is a “should” after all.

Maybe this is a language/cultural/mental perspective misunderstanding.

Yes. Because we live in a setting of specialists.

I am no specialist at efficiently growing healthy food. So if I try it, it will be objectively worse than if someone else more proficient does it for me. And if that one is worse in doing something I am better in, we both are off worse and everything overall.

So if we both would do things we are good at, the resulting products/services would be better, the processes would be more efficient (time, ressources, waste), which in return benefits all participants and the environment at the same time.

Actually that is so efficient, it is possible to pay for the store’s rent, the wage of the people transporting, managing and selling that stuff to me. If I ineffectively grow my own food, all these are out of their jobs or have to (badly) grow their food at home, which they cannot afford anymore and they even do not have the necessary space for a field to do so.

What? How can my comment possibly be voted down?

You should shop by ingrediends and ecological reasons. That’s sadly not represented by $/g.

The heavier product with the better “bang for the buck” is usually the one with the poorest quality and lots of sugar/additives/flavours/etc.

Discounter products like “Great Value” can easily have a better quality than stuff produced by “Kraft” and other Unilever/Nestle/etc. products.

Checking the ingredients list and the nutrition table should be a natural first instinct when grabbing something off the shelf.

Scientists being theorists and not based in reality after all.

Engineers knowing it is necessary to ensure safety because “+” could mean something else in just this situation noone (especially scietists) thought about.

you could add another layer of swap in between ram and disk by using zram. as it compresses swap in ram with a very fast compressing algorithm it effectively expands the ram size

btop makes the dedicated gpu turn on, wasting energy and disrupting its power saving. yes, this can not be disabled in btop, so it happily shows no load on the gpu. gee, thanks.

From Wikipedia:

In a 2021 study published in the journal Plant Signaling & Behavior, Felipe Yamashita and Jacob White claimed that B. trifoliata may employ a primitive form of vision to identify and mimic their hosts. This hypothesis is based upon 1905 and 1907 claims by Gottlieb Haberlandt and Francis Darwin, respectively, that some plants use ‘ocelli’ or lens-like cells to focus light onto other light sensitive cells. In this study, B. trifoliata was observed mimicking the leaf shapes of plastic plants, and researchers refined Haberlandt and Darwin’s ocelli hypothesis, claiming that B. trifoliata may be using convex shaped lenses in epidermal tissue that can detect light and “see” the shapes of nearby leaves.[24] They further proposed that, B. trifoliata processes that information through an unknown means, possibly through neuron-like structures in order to initiate mimicry.[18][23] The study also found that non-mimetic leaves have more free-end veinlets and identified the hormone auxin as a possible mediator in changes to leaf morphology.[24]

This paper received substantial media coverage, was praised by F1000’s Faculty Opinions, and went viral on the social media platform TikTok following its release. František Baluška, a plant biologist and editor-in-chief of Plant Signaling & Behavior, praised this hypothesis, and claimed that root skototropism and photoreceptive cells in algae were analogous mechanisms for “plant sight”. However, the paper’s conclusions have largely been met with skepticism by scientists. Criticisms of the paper include poor methodology, White’s lack of a scientific background, and possible conflicts of interest between Baluška and Yamashita.[18][23] The research was awarded the 2024 Ig Nobel Prize for botany.[25]

Being “trebuchet master” without “Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics”… doubt

Stalin alone:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin

Conversely, his totalitarian government has been widely condemned for overseeing mass repressions, ethnic cleansing, executions, and famines which caused the deaths of millions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_mortality_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin

This contained official records of 799,455 executions (1921–1953),[8] around 1.7 million deaths in the Gulag,[9][10] some 390,000[11] deaths during the dekulakization forced resettlement, and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported during the 1940s,[12] with a total of about 3.3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.[13] According to historian Stephen Wheatcroft, approximately 1 million of these deaths were “purposive” while the rest happened through neglect and irresponsibility.[2] The deaths of at least 5.5 to 6.5 million[14] persons in the Soviet famine of 1932–1933 are sometimes, though not always, included with the victims of the Stalin era.[2][15]

don’t know, tell me with sources, please

How many millions died under Stalin, Mao, Che?

I use Arch btw.

prevent body shaming by only showing obese/disfigured people so society accepts it as a healthy norm

You can download maps for offline use just like in OsmAnd. I used OsmAnd before but the UI has become sooo sluggish I switched over to OM

Do not use Microsofts Telemetry Studio Code but Code-OSS or VSCodium.

Regarding your question Code is not powerful enough of what we do at work. There we use IntelliJ IDEA. Our frontend guys use Code as it’s enough for them and they usually are not that quality oriented, be it their tools or their product. Sadly mediocre is enough.

and CI/CD goes “f*ck you, no deployment today, Linter is unhappy”
