I wonder if the sleep-change fucks up our brains and that's why more people aren't upset about it.

Until this comment, I'd completely forgotten about how the most recent time-change messed up me and the puppy I've been training, because of course she needs to pee as soon as she wakes up at 6am every day...

But note that that's about nudity and sex being the same, and the sex is pornographic (that is, the intent in showing it is to arouse the viewer). The OP is about non-sexual nudity. In fact, OP doesn't mention sex at all, but I feel like it's reasonable to extend the argument to non-pornographic depictions of sex.

The subtext of "anti-DEI", though, is that it is not possible to have two competent candidates where one is a woman/minority because conservative Christian English-speaking white men from wealthy families are inherently superior.

It's a funny post, but a serious point. The Europe of my childhood was different countries all very different from the US. But over time American media and algorithmic dominance are eroding things toward being America with accents. And what will you get for throwing away that cultural identity? Americans will still sneer at Europe.

I think a trickier question is: if Europe ought to retain its own identity, then shouldn't each European country retain its own identity instead of banding together as "Europe".

As a programmer, DST creates tons of bugs for anything using time and is annoying. But whatever, I guess I get paid either way.

As a parent, DST is miserable. It's miserable as an adult, also, but multiplied misery when you have to get up early to ruin your kid's sleep. And then that night they're not ready to suddenly go to sleep an hour early so you lose an extra hour...

I hope Poland succeeds.

I don't know. I might say "Matrix" and run a private server? But that's a bunch of IT work. It's attractive to use a SaaS because you don't have to do any long-term planning or hiring; just pay Slack a crazy amount of money and it all works.

Corps also like a commercial paid service because they get a contract with an SLA (even if it's rare to actually get anything from these SLAs).

enough that voted Trump

Fuck those assholes. The ones that break my heart are the ones who didn't vote at all because "the Democrats are terrible too". Yeah, they are. But voting for the least-bad politician is the minimum-effort thing and everyone I know who skipped voting is not spending their time community-organizing or engaged in violent revolution.

You haven't missed anything; there isn't any such place. There's a bunch of suggestions on how you could patch such a thing together StackOverflow: Is there a way to list pip dependencies/requirements?. Basically either running pip or querying the PyPI API to discover transitive dependencies. Sounds like a fun little programming project! 😀

Not an answer to your question, but I thought this was a nice article for getting some basic grounding on the new AI stuff: https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/07/a-jargon-free-explanation-of-how-ai-large-language-models-work/

OpenTofu is mostly getting users from the corporate world. My work is on Slack and we're moving to OT. The lowest-friction for me as an OT-when-at-work user is to add another Slack. (I'd personally rather that they used an open platform. But it's easy for me to see why they didn't.)

Is nobody else speaking to them? I think nobody else is coddling them. Like, leftist women aren't saying, "I won't date you unless you cut your dick off." But they are saying, "I won't date you unless you do at least 10% of the housework." I think the bar for acceptance among the left is pathetically low.

Purescript looks pretty cool, but the author was definitely positive on TypeScript warts. Like, I think the article's main take was, "it's easy to transition to TypeScript gradually, which is why it's a great language. But watch out: that capability also means you can never get to some 'pure' TypeScript."
