I like this thought experiment and think about this a lot. However this does nothing to remotely indicate the existence of the Abrahamic god. People tell you with certainty that god exists and he’s three persons and jesus rose from the dead yada yada. That’s a complete fantasy derived from literally nothing.
No proof but still believe? Faith.
Not believing in something that has zero evidence requires no faith. I don’t need faith to tell you Cthulu isn’t real
It doesn’t require faith to NOT believe in something. It requires faith to accept religion which cannot be proven.
“Concentration camp” evokes the Nazi style death camps. The USA’s version of this was/is decidedly less about mass extermination of a race. Still a concentration camp, still repugnant. I think the terminology is loaded and it makes it harder for people to understand. Not to mention the dearth of education we have which certainly isn’t helping…

This isn’t true as I was mistaken. The gap apparently is 1 cent when adjusting for positions. I think this is an overly simplistic view which unduly shifts the blame to women, when in fact society and our economic systems push women towards particular jobs (or motherhood) and compensates far less.
Hers a source I linked elsewhere:

I’m mistaken on that point then, though there is still a measurable gap. There is a large disparity in the “unadjusted” numbers which the article you sent notes is just as important as the adjusted one. It represents a power disparity. Ty for the correction
Here’s another reliable source:

The gap exists between identical positions – that’s like the whole thing
For real! Forced assimilation? Bad! Tianemen Square? Bad! Subsidizing EVs? Semi-planned economy? Seems good. Like literally anything it’s a mixed bag. Nuance is lost and so are we
It’s just firefox. If you encounter websites that break or look bad on firefox, theyll be just as broken on librewolf. There are many web standards firefox is behind on.
That said, vivaldi is the best chromium choice and Librewolf is the best FF choice. I use librewolf when adblocking is paramount, like on YT
To be fair, heading off implications of racism first and then saying “Russians” still reads poorly to me. I see now that wasn’t OPs intent, and we agree
You think Red Hat & friends are just all bad sysadmins? Source hut maybe…
I think there’s a bit of both: poorly optimized/antiquated sites and a gigantic spike in unexpected and persistent bot traffic. The typical mitigations do not work anymore.
Not every site is and not every site should have to be optimized for hundreds of thousands of requests every day or more. Just because they can be doesn’t mean that it’s worth the time effort or cost.
Im sorry for assuming! You said “Russians” and I’ve seen lots of people not differentiate between the despots in power and the people who live under their fist, and it makes me sad.
Without doubt or racism? Every man, woman and child in Russia? Would it be racist to hate all Afghans because of the Taliban? A portion of the population supports this, but they live in a dictatorship, a kleptocracy. If you do not feel sadness for the loss of Russian life then you’re missing part of your humanity. They’re conscripting innocent and ignorant people and throwing them into a blender. The whole thing is disgusting.
You don’t have to be racist to call Putin a war criminal, or indeed those Russian soldiers who commit those crimes. You can support Ukraine 100% without hating every last Russian. I invite everyone to remember that the true enemy is Putin and oligarchs everywhere
e: this is not directed at op as they have clarified they r talking about the russian oligarchy
AI scrapers illegally harvesting data are destroying smaller and open source projects. Copyright law is not the only victim

This is always how graphql works :)
I have a small site that mirrors hacker news but with dark mode and stuff, and it is getting blasted by bot traffic. All the data is freely available from the official api but they’re scraping my piddling site which runs on an anemic VPS because it looks like user generated content. Bot protection does little to help from my provider. Gonna have to rethink my whole architecture now. Very annoying
if I was talking about Elon I’d have you ready the guillotine instead of putting away torches
i mean its even excel sized depending on how many columns. This is seriously sad and alarming
For real… we are dealing with an edgy teenager here. Put away the torches people
I want to pay a botnet to upvote this comment
