The strength of life to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.

  • Meta in shambles. 😅

  • Hrm so I searched around that site a bit, and I genuinely cannot find them ever discussing that. Maybe it's in some of the videos (a very poor choice of design for something that supposedly is about more inclusive communication) but mostly it seems to be seminares and workshops.

    But just to ask the general question, I still need to make a negative assessment, yes? I still say "worst", not "++ungood". So I would also call something "stupid", not "unsmart"?Intuitively just from the title, of course nonviolent communication ought to be a thing, but that's distinct from a discussion as to whether all uses of a word should take in account all other uses of the same word, no? E.g. stupid person vs stupid move, or rape as a crime vs rape as a plant.

  • Why not, if I may ask?

  • This begs the question how I'd negatively assert outcomes and efforts if I am not to use negative language to describe it lest it'd be cruel.

  • Did you accidentally reply to the wrong post? I said something about word use and language, not about judgement and observations or decisions.

  • Yeah exactly, the mentioned words like 'stupid' or 'lazy' aren't exclusive to describing neurodivergency at all. In fact I'd argue that's a tiny minority of their use.

  • So as s simple example from the system I work with:

    Customers can set rolling validities for alerts, e.g., Monday 8-10.

    If a customer from a place which currently has DST puts in 8-10 say, CEST, in their browser (6-8 UTC) then they intuitively expect this to still be 8-10 their local time (7-9 UTC) when later winter time rolls around.

    But, all data checked for alerts comes in in UTC and different users editing these validities are from different countries, timezones and summer time preferences.

    Gets funky really quickly. Especially because the evaluation has to account for the DST shift essentially on a per-recipient DST-when-configured vs DST-when-evaluated basis.(This is genuinely a simple example, it gets worse 😁)

  • Nice! I'm a programmer, I hate daylight saving time with a passion. Feels like half of all bugs in IT somehow trace to it. 😑

  • Yes, which is an inherently element of federation. The whole idea is that single nodes can only police their own node, including who shares to them, which puts a heavy onus on what they want to accept automatically as they need to ensure they don't replicate illegal or problematic content through the federation.

  • Yeah Trump has amiably shown what political commentators have said for decades, the US-system is too easily exploited by the executive concentrating power and removing the safeguards other countries have in their setups.

  • I'm more concerned how he had ten kids and then felt overwhelmed when his wife left him. Like what the fuck?!

  • Danger noodle! <3

  • Question to those that use it: Does heliboard have a floating mode like GBoard/SwiftKey/FUTO have? I have a tablet and a full-screen keyboard just feels very weird once I got used to floating.

  • And if you live for rent, at least over here in Germany your landlords are obliged to replace them regularly, but like you say that just means they'll replace them with previous ones that have been checked and had batteries replaced.

  • Ah yes, I remember a browser extension about finding coupon codes for the sites you're on that absolutely didn't end up being disgusting shit. 🤣

  • I can't even decide what would be worse: AI-based shopping of general stuff, or shopping for AIs.

  • We already had Diablo 2. So there's no reason to keep going then, right?

  • And mind you despite what people love to say, if you actually talk to Nintendo Support, refunds for digital purchases are entirely normal.

    They always offered them right away for me, even when I explicitly didn't want one. Hell they offered to refund me a hardware purchase without me asking about it, just as an option in case I don't want it any longer.
