koshergweilo··on Hiring discrimination: a problem for men in female-dominated occupations
I don't disagrees with the conclusion, but these studies only prove it in their respective countries.

*In Sweden
koshergweilo··on Netflix loses subscribers for the first time in 10+ years
The secret ingredient is crime
koshergweilo··on Why are 2D vector graphics so much harder than 3D? (2019)
I would highly recommend learning more about webgl before diving into webGPU. https://webglfundamentals.org/ is a good place to start
koshergweilo··on Apple wields its lobbying might against LGBTQ laws
Yeah I'm holding my breath if it actually gets any results but something is better than nothing
koshergweilo··on Apple wields its lobbying might against LGBTQ laws
I agree, but both of these statements can be true.
koshergweilo··on Apple wields its lobbying might against LGBTQ laws
I don't understand how this relates to the article at hand. Do you care to elaborate?
koshergweilo··on Apple wields its lobbying might against LGBTQ laws
If you told me ten years ago that Giant corporations would be fighting to protect individual liberties I wouldn't believe it but here we are.
koshergweilo··on Considerations for Californians looking to move out of state (2019)
For other people, this article is mostly about the tax implications of people moving away from California. It doesn't cover anything from a social, or even financial perspective
koshergweilo··on The habit of finger-licking: getting a solution out of the pandemic
I was just thinking about this. I often have to lick my fingers to open doggie bags when walking my dog. My solution has been to use a water bottle with inbuilt bag holder, then instead of licking my fingers I squeeze a drop out of the bottle and use that.

Similarly at the grocery store I go to the produce section and swipe some water there to open bags.

Nice to have some validation for my idiosyncrasies

koshergweilo··on Nestle accused of ‘war crimes’ by Ukraine foreign minister
I think the foreign minister of all people should know that it's not a good idea to dilute the term "War Crimes", especially when they're currently being committed
koshergweilo··on Covid-19 cases more than double in China's growing outbreak
More bad news for inflation. I hope they get it under control and soon.
koshergweilo··on AWS launches “Cloud Quest: Cloud Practitioner”, an open-world RPG to teach AWS
I love the idea of using video games to teach infra/system design, but does the game being open world really help anyone learn?
koshergweilo··on Firefox removes Yandex search, will auto-switch affected users to Google
Reclaim the Net doesn't advocate for the removal, they're just reporting what Firefox decided to do.
koshergweilo··on Video Games Affect the Brain
TLDR; Video games improve deep concentration, spatial reasoning. May be addictive.

Brain training games are BS.

koshergweilo··on [dead]
Another day, another article that fails to consider the agency of the Ukrainian people in favor of the desires of the Kremlin
koshergweilo··on The Ukraine War and the price of bread
Good to hear that the void left by Ukraine and Russia can probably be filled

>The U.S. might be able to step into that breach and make up some of the gap, by planting more wheat. After all, U.S. wheat production can vary by up to 20,000 tons per year, which could probably make up for all of the shortfall in Russian and Ukrainian exports

Although it's unfortunate that like many world events, this will hit the most vulnerable the hardest

koshergweilo··on Blender 3.1
Have they changed much about the UI in this update? Seems like it's mostly about performance improvements and procedural generation this update.
koshergweilo··on US Destroyer can’t deploy because CO won’t get Covid vaccine, Navy says
> I think the second is more compatible with the United States. We are guaranteed individual liberties.

Sorry but this has never been the case. I mean when the country was founded slavery was perfectly legal. The enslaved people would certainly argue that the US did not hold individual rights to the highest standard.

Not to mention the first president literally did exactly what we're doing now [1]

koshergweilo··on How Important Is Russia to Apple’s Business?
Russia getting cut off from Apple always seemed like a symbolic thing to me. The idea behind banning luxury goods is to have a disproportionate impact on the Russian Elite, as they're the only ones in the country with a semblance of real power.
koshergweilo··on Russia Bans Twitter
First Facebook and now Twitter. Is HN next? Any Russian know how popular are these American social networks in Russia?
koshergweilo··on With war at its doors, Europe discovers a capacity for action
Although I agree that weapons support could have been done earlier, you must concede that the western response has been an order of magnitude larger than what happened in 2014. A simple look at the value of the Ruble can confirm this.
koshergweilo··on Facebook Allows Praise of Neo-Nazi Battalion If It Fights Russian Invasion
Yeah I don't really have a problem with sending neo-nazis to the front to defend their country from invaders. Not quite sure why there's all this hand-wringing about a single battalion. I'm pretty sure almost every army has a disproportionate amount of far-right extremist. So long as they don't attempt a coup I don't see a problem.
koshergweilo··on Facebook Allows Praise of Neo-Nazi Battalion If It Fights Russian Invasion
I don't think I can ever understand the cognitive dissonance of Azov fighting Russians to defend a country with a Jewish President (and PM). Although antisemitism in Ukraine certainly exists, the current administration and zeitgeist seems to be opposed to neo-nazi ideals. At the very least, more so than many other Eastern European countries.
koshergweilo··on The Miseducation of Maria Montessori
Great to hear the perspective of someone who actually went through it rather than a parent. Seems like they can be very hit or miss depending on the particular school/student. Was your poor performance communicated to your parents at all? Seems like you should have been pulled out earlier.
koshergweilo··on Russia to punish ‘fake news’ about Ukraine war with 15 years’ jail
He never said he was, he said Rogan "pushes a mostly conservative line" which from my understanding seems to be true, at least regarding all major issues in the past year or so.
koshergweilo··on Russia to punish ‘fake news’ about Ukraine war with 15 years’ jail
Thanks for the translation. I'm pretty new to HN, is mentioning Putin or Trump by name a surefire way to get banned or something?
koshergweilo··on Open Web Advocacy
Couldn't you say the same for IE7?
koshergweilo··on Russian Government Websites Are Currently Down
Does the US have a history of doing this or is it more likely someone in Europe is doing this?
koshergweilo··on Vanced: YouTube adblocker for Android
Thanks for the link! I was about to ask.
