It's true but most people do not have the luxury of being able to focus on a single task each day until done. If that is a requirement for you I'm not gonna knock it but I feel it is rare to get.

It's the seeds you need to buy that are expensive!

That's good to know!

No, it has not.

This has already been done. I have friends and loved ones who never got to work from home. They were not living in a dystopia. You are just using extreme language to further a political point.

I'd hardly call it a dystopia... That's some hyperbole. It wasn't great for a lot of people but far from a dystopia. QoL went up in the US by many measures (I know the US is not the world).

What clover? Would love to do this even though clover is really expensive. I planted some last year but it only half kinda took.

How?

cast iron has the same problem

> I think the issue here is that sanctions require usually time to really take effect. The government is already installed by the time they come. The dictators and their cronies are shielded and live lo comfortably.

> The population is either brainwashed or brutally repressed when it complains (particularly eliminating leaders).

> It’s hard to make a case for sanctions as the solution as there are plenty of counter examples: Cuba has been heavily sanctioned for over half a century and little has changed no matter how dire the situation gets.

> I wish they worked for sure, because what other resources you have against a nuclear power?

> Edit to add: also, sanctions have exceptions (usually to shielding the sanctioning countries from suffering consequences, as in this case with Russia and the energy related transactions, with the effect of keep that money flowing for Russia).

> And these tyrants workaround the sanctions in many cases with the help of other nations.

That didn't answer their question at all.

Some things are obviously wrong, I know how to tell right from wrong. Do you not understand how to?

No, it makes sense as a question, I think. Maybe it doesn't make sense to you.

I'm pretty sure the issue is that they won't make a wedding website for a gay couple. In your example they would still serve them, just not the exact product that you want.

Making a website for a gay couple and a straight couple requires the same sets of skills...

In both of your examples, the set of skills is different.

Baking a cake for a gay couple and a straight couple... same skills...

Well, you still have to define it if you want me to know what you're talking about.

I don't.

People being critical of what you say is not discrimination.

Women are subservient to men in Christianity. This is very clear. Does this make it right?

Right. I won't make a Nazi website for anyone.

If I just make Nazi websites for black people, and refuse to make a Nazi website for some people, it isn't the Nazi website - it is the person that I disagree with.

Absolute freedom... what does this even mean to you?

You're obviously upset about something, but you're not contributing to any real discussion.

I think we're talking on different wavelengths. I'm not saying disproving something is an invalid way of operating.

I'm saying it is not required of people to disprove things from the start, it is required to try and prove them.

Math and other sciences are a little different, where people enjoy taking statements and trying to disprove them, but even in that context we rarely or never consider the statement true until considerable effort has at least gone into disproving them.

That doesn't work in real life, though. You can't make claims and have them stand until someone bothers to disprove them.

Context and common understanding does matter. Innocent can mean many things.

You rarely need to disprove things. You need to prove them.

That's true if you need to stay in that sandbox, which isn't always the case!

I always feel this is a little unfair. Sure, a Python program and an R program, written the same way, using the same data structures, etc.. is going to usually show the R program is faster.

But getting to that point is where the challenge is, and I feel that Python makes thinking about things like data structures and the algorithms you're using (in the case of external libraries) or writing much easier than other languages.

In my experience once you "get there" that is enough.

R doesn't give you magic code. I have worked on several projects where my job was to rewrite the R code that took over a day to run in Python. Each time I was (fairly easily) able to get to a place where the Python code ran in < minute. Mostly this was because the people who developed the R code had no good concept of data structures.

Gives me a fun idea: a program that randomly deletes items out of your backlog.

More like 24 no? 12 until it is deprecated then 12 of support.

My problem with kubernetes is for a lot of stuff you don't know what is happening really. I recently installed cert manager and the config file alone for that resource was 5k lines generated by helm. That is just crazy. I want to know generally how that part of the app is configured (it is a user facing cert) and it isn't that complicated in the real world when you set things up with nginx.

I feel like I probably should trust the people working on these products more than I trust me securing a Linux box, but... I dunno if I'm there yet.

I watched the livestream last night, there is still honking...
