Not if they’re going to disturb the relaxing cat.

Semantic versioning.

Most of the time. I use calendar versioning (calver) for my releases because it allows me to

OpenDocument.

Agreed compared to .doc and .docx. And if you’re going to version control it, markdown instead of a binary blob.

For academic documents in STEM fields, I’d love to see a transition from LaTeX to Typst. Much cleaner, better error handling, and it has a web UI if people don’t want to install a massive runtime on their own computer.

Recipes in concrete metric units, preferably mass instead of volume. Recipes come together incredibly quickly when measuring out ingredients can just be dump-tare-dump-tare-dump instead of trying to get sticky ingredients like tahini out of a measuring cup.

More torx screws. There are apparently some uses for phillips, but torx are criminally underused.

Oh? Do you know details on how it’s going to work? All I can find is the BRICS Pay site with a very high level overview. They’re talking a big game, but as of now all that seems to be public is just talk.

Mission Accomplished!

There are lots of details left to hammer out. This is like an announcement that there will be a committee to commission a study to hire a contractor to change a light bulb. The process will likely take a while and may not complete at all.

Does COSMIC’s design suck or is it in pre-alpha?

Lapce, an IDE written in Rust. It’s nice and light compared to most IDE’s, so I use it a bit on my aging laptop from 2015. However, it doesn’t have the extension ecosystem or polish of my favored IDE, VS Code.

Just take the dive into fish. It used to have a lot of problems with incompatibilities, but that’s been less of a problem lately.

I haven’t found nushell to be that great as a day-to-day shell simply because it integrates poorly with other Linux commands. But when it comes to data manipulation, it is simply amazing. I’m currently (slowly) working on a plugin to query LDAP. The ldapsearch command uses the LDIF format, which is hard to parse reliably. Producing nushell data structures that don’t need fragile parsing would be a boon.

That’s exactly what I thought of. Alas, permanently gone dark in protest of Reddit’s API changes. Fortunately, we have the power to create it anew! !beholdthemasterrace@lemmy.ml

No, no, grown men making little girls cry is just normal and an essential part of free speech.

Yup, a late friend of mine was a lobbyist at the state level for a mental health lobbying group. His daughter has schizophrenia and that was his way to give back in his retirement. Without lobbying, it’s hard for politicians to know when there is a problem they need to fix. They have a small staff and they don’t just magically know when there is a problem. The problem is when a politician either can’t sniff out unethical lobbyists or just doesn’t care.

marijuana arrests

Arrests are done by the police, not the DA, so that issue lies with the police. And as much of the rest of the article pointed out, the number of people who saw the inside of a prison cell for marijuana possession was small.

Here’s a fact check that goes over her history as a prosecutor. Hint: it doesn’t fit well into a single reductive sentence.

That reminds me of one interview with a random Israeli, I think a politician. Her attitude toward the US was one of “stop telling us what to do big guy.” It was so utterly bizarre to read that. Yeah, don’t tell us what to do, but do give us the weapons to do it with! Also, constantly shield us for any consequences from the international community!

She didn’t attend Bibi’s Congressional political rally (it was mainly for the majority of Israelis who want Bibi gone), which is unusual for her. Then she punctuates her meeting with Bibi with this. Maybe it’s just rhetoric. She will need to outline what sorts of consequences she’s willing to impose on Israel.

Maybe the same person who tricked him into buying Twitter, which he seemed to quickly regret.

Nuclear Proliferation resulting from Treason Trump’s New World Disorder. Every country and their brother is going to scramble for nuclear weapons now.

This point is very underappreciated in many political corners, including Lemmy. It’s taken decades of deft maneuvering, including by otherwise foes, to keep nuclear weapon proliferation under anything close to control. Trump’s pull out of the JCPOA was an unforgivable act of self-sabotage by a man with an uneducated, brutish understanding of foreign policy. Likewise with other policies that are meant to ensure that non-nuclear countries don’t feel like they need nukes and nuclear countries don’t feel like they’re in an arms race.

Though Gen Z is doing better than previous generations

According to one recent poll, the number is 67%, and they didn’t poll for a range of definitions of ceasefire to try to suss out exactly what that means. Like, many people would only accept a ceasefire that would more or less erase Hamas, but there is no sign of that happening. Instead, everything (including somewhat agree) was just lumped together to produce 67%.

No, they were harassing them just for being friendly with the West. Exiting the Russian sphere of influence, not joining NATO, was the cardinal sin.
