  • Postal privacy is amazing

    Jump

  • Well not these days! Postal services were actually one of the first institutions to start using a ML based image classifier to determine zip codes automatically from people's hand writing. I could easily see something like that existing for X-rays to auto-classify package contents if they wanted. That being said, I agree that they haven't seemed motivated to implement that (thank goodness).

  • That's super interesting! Seems like difficulty to juggle all of that tbh, but it makes sense.

  • I can definitely increase my caloric intake a little bit. To be honest, I usually hit 1700+ since I'm not super strict. But I think I just need to be a lot more focused I suppose. It's so hard to lose weight at this point.

  • Yeah I use MyFitnessPal right now to track my calories. I'm aiming for 1600 calories a day which is kinda hard. I skip breakfast and sometimes lunch but I'm vegan so my meals tend to be carb-forward. I try and eat things like just Tofu

  • Yup. Much like Mr. Rogers who put his feet in a kiddie pool with a black man (I believe it was the mail man). Children's programming has always been empathetic and inclusive.

  • HRT and Mental Health

    Jump

  • I'm not on HRT and I'm still learning about it. I'm a newbie. But as someone who has struggled with depression, I advocate constantly for therapy. I feel like hormones have got to impact your brain chemistry in a myriad of ways. If you can afford therapy (if you're not still going) and checking in with your doctor, I think that would be a good idea.

    I'm sorry you're going through such a hard time. Don't forget to reach out to your support system. Sometimes a coffee date with an old friend or a call to a family (chosen or not) can be just as healing as an hour of therapy. I hope you know people care about you and you matter.

  • Just some casual news headlines and captions:

    Ms. Rachel doubles down on support for children in Gaza “It’s sad that people try to make it controversial when you speak out for children that are facing immeasurable suffering,” the YouTube educator said in a recent interview with Zeteo.

    NBC News

    Kids’ YouTube star ‘Ms. Rachel’ defends her Gaza comments in talk with anti-Israel reporter “Her increasingly politicized online presence should concern parents. Ms. Rachel has a moral compass — but it only points leftward,” New York Post columnist Bethany Mandel wrote.

  • There should only be 12 jurors (maybe you've already done this). People should have to wait in a queue to join a jury of 12. Once you have 12 you all vote within 30 seconds. Everyone should see the results. If a jury is a hung jury, it ends up back in the queue. Majority wins. Users can only appeal once.

    Basically it should mimic jury duty a little more closely. Right now, it just feels like you're doing a survey.

  • On a remote Australian island, the birds are so full of plastic they crunch

    Jump

  • Totally agree. Plastic is useful. It's great for medical, sterilized, environments. It's great for emergencies. It's terrible for almost everything else.

    If you'd like to read a relevant anecdote about plastics, please continue:

    I'm currently struggling with the plastic industry on my keyboards right now. I have a 2016 Macbook Pro, but the scissor mechanism on my key broke on the board (not the key). In order to replace the keyboard, I'd have to spend $200-$400 on it. So, it's basically only good for recycling for parts now since the value of the Macbook Pro 2016 is basically the cost of the keyboard replacement. Someday, I might use it for just the hardware (e.g., on a docking station), but I want a laptop for - you know - walking around.

    Instead, I "rescued" a Lenovo Thinkpad from eBay for $60. Unfortunately, the scissor mechanism on the same key broke last night. I got the laptop yesterday afternoon! But at least I can replace the whole keyboard myself for $30 so I guess I'll have a working laptop by Saturday night. Assuming no other plastic things break.

    Anyways, my point is that plastic - especially plastic with a short lifetime - sucks. They should just use teeny metal bits for the scissor mechanism. Give my laptop keyboards some umph and durability. Stop building things that inevitable (apparently) will break!

  • Same age here and similar timeline. I'm still figuring things out. I'm a remote worker so I can hide from my job in a lot of ways, but I'm not sure how it'll impact my career. Feel free to checkout the /c/TransLater community as well! I'm not out to my parents or siblings - only my cis wife. I don't think I'll be coming out to anyone anytime soon because my family trends quite conservative.

    I'm excited on your behalf!
