  • Ich setze mich auch für eine drastische Kürzung des Lateinunterrichts an den Gymnasien ein. Maximal 2 Jahre, beginnend in der 11. Schulstufe. Wen das wirklich interessiert kann es ja in einem freiwilligen Zusatzkurs machen. Gibt keinen Grund, damit die Allgemeinheit zu belasten.

    Ich denke mal, dass Latein immer noch unterrichtet wird, liegt hauptsächlich an einer sentimentalen Geschichtsauffassung als "Europa der Ort, der durch das römische Reich groß geworden ist", d.h. man verbindet die lateinische Sprache mit den Errungenschaften Roms. Allerdings ist das so, wie wenn man die verschwitzte Kleidung, die man getragen hat, als man zum ersten mal einen Marathon gelaufen ist, jahrelang behält und sie von nun an als glücksbringenden Talisman verwendet. Das hat keinen realen Nutzen, es ist reiner placebo-Effekt.

    Ich möchte auch noch klarstellen, dass ich denke, dass die lateinische Sprache eine tolle Sache ist und wahrscheinlich weltbewegende Verbesserungen hervorgebracht hat, einschließlich eines einfachen, aus wenigen Lauten bestehenden Alphabets, das durch wenige Schriftzeichen geschrieben wird (im Gegensatz zum chinesischen z.B.). Das gab's zwar vorher auch schon, z.B. griechisch, aber Latein hat dieses Konzept europaweit etabliert (die germanen hatten kaum/wenig Schrift). Das heißt aber nicht, dass ich mich damit herumschlagen muss, was der Akkusativ von "conundrum" ist.

    Übrigens hat wahrscheinlich die Einfachheit des lateinischen Alphabets die praxisnahe Erfindung des modernen Buckdrucks mit beweglichen Lettern um 1500 überhaupt erst ermöglicht. Buchdruck gab's davor nämlich auch schon, sogenannter Blockdruck (ganze Seite wird in Holz geschnitzt und dann auf einmal gedruckt) und der Buchdruck mit beweglichen Lettern wurde von den Chinesen schon um 1000 praktiziert (Wikipedia hat da einen netten Artikel dazu), dieser setzte sich aufgrund der Komplexität des chinesischen Alphabets jedoch nicht durch (es ist zu aufwändig, den einen richtigen Stempel unter 5000 hervorzusuchen).

  • i don't know but considering cats, dogs, donkeys, horses, literally every other farm animal lives around 20 years in captivity, i'd say 20 years in captivity. around 10 years in the wild.

  • i have had severe autism my entire life and i have never ever given a single fuck about the law.

    that's because i learned pretty early on that the law is routinely wrong about major things, and there's not much of a point to believe in it too much. however, i do have a very strong sense of "justice" (though i don't call it that, and it's also significantly different than other people's ideas of justice) that i do live by very strictly.

  • I'm not sure but i guess milk might be fine.

    Consider how babies live off entirely milk for a few months, i guess it has everything they need. There might be a difference between cow/human metabolism or adult/baby metabolism though.

  • like, this is typical boomer humor and i could just ignore it

    but i feel the urge to give serious criticism to these kind of things.

    your first mistake was to say "they seem harmless". don't let appearances fool you. Sun Tsu already said "know the other one, and know yourself, then you need not fear the events in a thousand years" (rough translation)

    your second mistake was to assume that you'd have to keep them, i.e. pay for their expenses and stuff. you know, you can ask them to pay for their own expenses.

    and the third mistake was to assume they're "not trainable". i assume you mean by this that their behavior can never change or improve in any way. that is very far from the truth. everybody can learn if the teacher is wise enough and has enough empathy to actually reach the other one. if the student is stubborn, it's because the teacher is abusive. if the student is dumb, it's because the teacher's words lack clarity. if the student does not make progress, that simply means that the teacher has nothing of value to teach.

  • you know, i've always been wondering about whether that is secretly a covert plan of the wife so the husband works longer hours, makes more money and makes the family richer. i'd seriously not put that past some people i've met in my life ...

  • interestingly, the descendants of native americans in the US today are still around the same number (3% of US population or about 10 million) which is largely because of industrial agriculture -> more food

  • not based

  • facebook has a very different target audience

    facebook is mostly about 60+ year olds holding their beer and saying sth like "beer, car, church is all we need" while instagram is predatory on 16-y.o girls telling them that they're not pretty and worthy of love if they're not significantly (scarily, in fact) underweight and wear lots of makeup to cover their true emotions/face.

  • sounds like a good thing. man do i miss actually going out and meeting people. i mean, i can go out, but i'm mostly alone, idk where everyone else is, the world feels so empty, devoid of people in it

  • yeah some countries have that, like sweden and austria. the reason is because they're very mountaineous areas, so there's a lot of water power to harvest. in germany, which is really flat, that would have been impossible with water alone.

  • redereferencing

    omg, what a word :o :D

    but in general, yes you're right, adding DIDs to the game is interesting, and making the DIDs also valid URLs is even more interesting. I have been thinking about a similar DID mechanism, where the DIDs are not URLs but public cryptographic keys. this way, each human could prove that many accounts are all signed with the same key, and therefore belong to the same human.

    Edit: oh wait i think the official(?) DID specification (here: https://www.w3.org/TR/did-1.0/) actually already expresses this concept:

    Each DID document can express cryptographic material, verification methods, or services, which provide a set of mechanisms enabling a DID controller to prove control of the DID. Services enable trusted interactions associated with the DID subject. A DID might provide the means to return the DID subject itself, if the DID subject is an information resource such as a data model.
