  • Mehrheit der Eltern bezweifelt, dass Schule gut aufs Berufsleben vorbereitet

    Jump

  • Ausnahmsweise hat die Mehrheit der Eltern da Recht. Und ich vermute, Lehrer und Schüler würden außer zustimmen.

  • And you really think, people who are willing and able to buy enterprise support for their Linux distro get confused by the naming? Sure, there's that one confused dude, but you also have people asking Facebook where they left their keys.

    OpenSuse is essentially free marketing for SUSE, nobody would know them otherwise. Why would you give that away?

    Suse is not a huge company, it has neither a large enterprise backer nor any killer features, and its market share is relatively small compared to Red Hat or Canonical. Throwing away free marketing while alienating a relatively passionate community is a kind of brainrot only MBA can come up with.

  • Zumal das ja auch nur wieder die Nabelschau der Medien ist. Twitter war immer nur Pressestelle. Kaum ein normaler Mensch hat dort etwas geschrieben - zumindest in Deutschland.

  • Eilantrag abgewiesen: AfD Sachsen darf als gesichert rechtsextrem eingestuft werden

    Jump

  • Was ich hier wirklich komisch finde (das mag aber an meinen mangelnden Jura Kenntnissen liegen), wenn eine Partei gesichert rechtsextrem ist und Rechtsextremismus quasi per Definition Grundgesetz/FDGO abschaffen will, dann heißt das, dass die Partei gegen das Grundgesetz ist. Eine Partei die gegen das Grundgesetz ist, muss dann in Folge doch quasi automatisch verboten werden oder zumindest verbietbar sein.

  • Expansive new study points to distinct brain networks linked to sex and gender

    Jump

  • I get the sentiment, but I could use the same arguments against HRT, which isn't exactly what you want.

    Bodily autonomy is fine, as long as it's not harming anyone (including oneself). If this tool is accurate (again, big if), it could actually increase bodily autonomy, since you could distinguish between real cases and those who really have other problems. That takes the burden of proof away from trans people.

    Think about how long it takes today from the first visit at a doctor's office until actual treatment or legal processes can start. Using diagnostics like this, this could be shrunken down to one MRI.

  • Expansive new study points to distinct brain networks linked to sex and gender

    Jump

  • If we assume that it's useful as a diagnostic tool (very iffy if there), that's not a bad thing.

    There are people who regret transitioning and currently there's no way to reliably tell which trans kids are actually trans and which have been manipulated or are just in a phase, thus denying early intervention for many. If it could be reasonably reliably tested for, that's great.

    The insurance part is 100% an American issue. Civilized societies have socialized healthcare.

  • The West finally allowed Ukraine to strike back at Russia — and it seems to be working

  • Fake news! We should ask Ukraine for peace talks! Otherwise we might provoke Putin!!

  • Is there even someone left?

    I only tried it around 2008 or so and it was extremely slow paced back then while looking like the interface from a sci-fi movie.

  • What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?

    Jump

  • Every system will get gamed by bad actors.

    At least in my case, I can't come up with a system that doesn't suffer from these problems, but still keeps corruption in check.

    For example, I was in a bidding process for my own software. Our contract has a legal time limit, afterwards it has to be renewed using the same bidding process as the first time. It makes perfect sense for us not to rewrite our software - it's working just fine after all. But legally, we're bidding on rebuilding the entire thing, have to compete with laughably low offers from all over Europe, and when we won the contract we decide, almost by accident, to keep using the old software, but on a very tight budget.

    The pragmatic thing would have been, to just extend our contract, but that could mean endless contracts to extremely high prices for software that just happens to be embedded deep enough to be irreplaceable.

    No good solution, really.

  • Hmm, needs linux

    Jump

  • Not that old, unfortunately.

    Linux runs fine, but even when underclocked, it turns into a space heater by just using a browser.

  • What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?

    Jump

  • Maybe because the original post seems awfully arrogant, if you don't know the context - and the post didn't provide any context.

    I've seen a ton of responses like yours. You're implying that everyone gets the context, if they don't, you assume everything is "hostile" if it's not the exact line of thought you happen to support.

    Accept that other people live different lives from yours and have different experiences and knowledge.

  • What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?

    Jump

  • As a software engineer, this applies to my entire industry as well.

    I'm forced to write subpar software, sometimes with atrocious security simply because some idiot set an unrealistic budget.

    The worst part is, my current projects are all government funded. The German government implemented processes to prevent corruption, which force unhealthy competition and backhand corruption onto the bidders, which then churn out bad software, which causes gigantic costs down the line, because nothing works. Great job.

  • I feel really bad about my old MacBook. It was my trusty companion for 10 years, but now it's kind of forgotten and useless.

    I tried to revive it a while ago, but it's too slow/hot to be useful for anything worthwhile and it's a real shame. It's still working fine, otherwise!

    All those developers, analysts, designers, etc. could surely make more money in a proper business.

  • Implementing RFC 3339 shouldn't really be that hard...

  • Or requires a timestamp with zone offset, but ignores the zone offset, so you have to send the timestamp itself with a zone offset of zero relative to the systems timezone, but can't just omit the zone offset, because it's required.

    world’s first anode-free sodium solid-state battery – a breakthrough in inexpensive, clean, fast-charging batteries

    Jump

  • You can go and buy sodium batteries already. They're not competitive with Lithium ion batteries in many mobile applications, but very much competitive for everything where price is more important than size or weight.

    Lithium has decades of research and industrial scaling behind it, it's hard to break into that. But especially sodium is on a pretty good path to replace it in large scale storage applications.
