You get used to it sooner than you’d think. There are libraries to convert between regex and English. Maybe it deserves a Unicode code block like APL?

Not something I’ve encountered.

Wait until you see what they do to avoid learning SQL or Regex or JSON Pointer or XPath.

If you want everything bundled instead of à la carte, that sounds more like eclipse to me. But then, I don’t understand how anyone can program in Java.

The “light truck” exemption is a huge problem, and needs to be repealed.

Big cars also reduce everyone else’s visibility.

I’m more into the FRC.

I see what you’re saying, but it sounds a little like “no true Scotsman”, too. I guess Occupy probably did this better, but I’m not sure it helped enough.

This is really part of it, but it’s not included explicitly in that article like it should be.

Other activists, faith-based leaders and consumers already are organizing boycotts to protest companies that have scaled back their diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and to oppose President Donald Trump’s moves to abolish all federal DEI programs and policies.

Lots of naysayers trying to convince everyone not to participate, or to fragment efforts with competing ideas.

So much of our consumer culture is buying shit we don’t need like impulse buys and stupid movies and fast food. That’s profitable stuff, and skipping that for one day doesn’t mean you’ll just buy it the next day.

Maybe make a trivial amount of effort to find those details yourself.

It’s a response to the active class warfare happening, including the anti-DEI efforts.

Targeted boycotts aren’t enough anymore. Too many major corporations, often without adequate competition, are working against us.

Nope to what?

Many algorithms aren’t even doing that in good faith, instead substituting in their low-cost contract cover bands as often as they can.

What could be more human than that?

Zero that axis, please.

WinGet, choco, scoop, &c, they all have strengths and weaknesses, which is why I had to write this: https://github.com/brianary/scripts/blob/main/Update-Everything.ps1

It’s also why I use Linux at home.

I’m just worried about another No Labels situation.

Who is funding this?

These are what I use to dim them without blocking them entirely: https://lightdims.com/

There’s a whole book about this: # Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting by in America by Barbara Ehrenreich.

Ehrenreich left her home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find, and accepted whatever jobs she was offered. Moving from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, she worked as a waitress, a hotel maid, a cleaning woman, a nursing-home aide, and a Wal-Mart sales clerk. She lived in trailer parks and crumbling residential motels. Very quickly, she discovered that no job is truly “unskilled,” that even the lowliest occupations require exhausting mental and muscular effort. She also learned that one job is not enough; you need at least two if you intend to live indoors.

Gross. I haven’t run into that.
