Speak for yourself, I absolutely do not hate it. If someone says they are "vegan+something" or "I am mostly vegan" etc, it means they are trying, and doing vastly better than most people on the planet. And to me that is far more valuable than some minor inconvenience I might encounter due to mislabels.
I just want to point out that something being "natural" does not inherently make it ok. Killing other creatures of the same species (murder) is "natural", rape is "natural", stealing is "natural".
The entire point of ethics/morality is to distinguish between the natural things which we find good, and the natural things we find bad and want ourselves and others to stop doing.
My point being that if you want to defend eating meat as morally ok, you should do so without the "appeal to nature".
I highly agree with the sentiment. Learning languages of different paradigms is sort of like travelling to visit other cultures to make you a more rounded, better person. Learn a functional language (lisp/Haskell). Learn a concatenative language (forth/Factor). Learn a logical language (Prolog/?). Heck even learn an assembly! (I suggest RISC-V).
A few good reasons, the first being that brand new operating systems don't get written all that often. But even if they were, functional languages focus a lot on abstractions, making them generally higher level languages and so not fast enough to compete with C.
Having said that, Rust's design is quite inspired by functional languages in many ways, and it is indeed being used in operating systems.
I agree with many people ITT that overuse of blocks could create echochambers, however I still think that blocks are an underused feature of social media. These days much online content is not designed for discourse, it is designed for engagement. Rage bait, over sensualisation, even trolls farming frustration for their hit of endorphins. These are the kinds of people (and content outlets in general) which should be blocked.
But to be clear, not everyone who disagrees with you is a troll, or trying to rage bait.
I mean the feeling of coziness and warmth inside is a huge part of why winter is so great! I do also actively go hiking, snow-shoeing, skiing, etc in winter and love that too, but that just adds to the beautiful contrast between crisp, fresh winter air and warm cozy indoors.
