It’s kinda fucked up that they don’t teach this to freshman college students first thing as part of basic media literacy.
Same goes for teaching version control such as git to anyone writing or collaborating on complex text (not necessarily even code). https://medium.com/@RichHosek/github-for-writers-an-introduction-8cec9d9ece2
Granted, Google docs already has built in versioning, but git works better offline and works with any text editor.
If anyone is choosing between them I’d advise going with Zotero because it’s an open source project. No chance of it suddenly shutting down or changing the terms of service.
in trouble with who?
Isn’t the whole point that oil is easy for anyone to exploit, including backwards dictators? Unlike say, semiconductor manufacture which requires complex processes and therefore a functioning society
could you give a couple examples of how vscode degrades quality?
as a queer leftist (look up ag kamala’s record on gender affirming care for trans inmates for a fun time) I support her on electoral grounds- she isn’t visibly falling apart at the seams like Biden and can do the physical work of campaigning and interacting with potential voters. We can work with this.
She is also on record as having a somewhat tougher stance on Israel’s war (unlike Joe, who supported them no matter what they did). That’s my personal red-line issue so I’m glad there’s some semblance of a shift there :/
What? How does it not speak for every Israeli, it’s a democratic system
Varoufakis (Marxist econ professor and also briefly the Greek finance minister) wrote a book about this called “the adults in the room”. He’s biased of course but I respect him a lot
Could you use a slide rule for that kind of multiplication?
Yeah point 1 is why I support a peace deal along current lines, maybe with a dmz with UN peacekeepers or something idk. Ukraine is the one getting invaded, they need time to breathe far more than Russia does.
Even if you think Russia can’t be trusted and will invade again a few years of peace is better than ceaseless war
Somehow missile flight time to St Petersburg (also happens to be where I’m from) weren’t an existential threat that lead to an invasion back when Finland joined NATO. Maybe there’s some other factor?
Why did they still lose, was it like a gerrymandering thing?
That just sounds like a saturnalia
I’m biased but I thought it was pretty clear with portraying Truman as an unambiguously bad guy and Oppenheimer as decent but failing at a critical moment and then regretting it later
I’m useless and not an alcoholic but looking back it would have been much better for me to self medicate somehow and stay in school instead of dropping out.
That entire process still needs lots of cash up front does it not?
industrial landscapes need a base of natural resources and less developed regions with high birth rates (as a source of labor) to support them.
Last spring bud light sent trans influencer Dylan mulvaney a personalized beer can as part of a broad marketing push. This drew criticism/calls for a boycott from various prominent transphobes and caused a slight slump in sales. Bud light responded by laying off/“laying off” various senior marketing execs etc, and did not afaict support support mulvaney after it (no loud anti-transphobia pr statement). Very illustrative story of how corporate support of lgbt people under capitalism works
People who emigrated from the Soviet Union often disagreed with its social policy and general way of life. They were more fans of capitalism/individualism as they imagined it, over the Soviet system. This is reflected not just in lifestyle but in politics too, they are a Republican stalwart in a deeply democratic area. I wouldn’t count on them “maintaining Soviet culture”.
