@zacharius Don't they say you should invest in ETFs on a multi-decade timeline? In the turbulent times that we will be living in, that sounds an awful lot like HODL.
I also love this proposed government based on sortition and ostracism. It seems like it could be a lot better than what we have right now.
@vgr Combining some stuff: I've never worn one but I usually compare protected social media accounts to female facial covering. I gather they have a similar purpose.
@Elmkast The USA is big and empty enough for it. Hell, if they did above ground nuclear tests, what's the problem with a bunch of plants?
@natecull I mean the people working there needed a person heading it to NOT tell them where this kind of money usually comes from.
Flightshame (flygskam) is nice but the people who really fly a lot donโt have any shame to speak of.
Whenever our kids are dismayed by somebody else, they come to us and say that there was either a human (ein Mensch!) or a kid (ein Kind!). No genders, no nothing.
@machado Of course not in the individual case but in the case of peoples vs. peoples conflict, for sure.
@machado @MrWanda I wouldn't say apply this indiscriminately to everybody but as soon as somebody identifies with such a nation they're free for all.
Given that power is a crucial part of racism, let's just say that it's not possible to be racist against peoples of empires (USA, Russia, China), colonizing nations (Netherlands, Belgium, England, France, Spain, Portugal) or anybody with a nuke (India, Pakistan).

@rustyswarf He says that something like table wouldn't be a pattern just like function wouldn't be butโฆ
@bkam A Pattern Language is classic, but Notes on the Synthesis of Form is ๐คฏ.
@machado Medium shows modals more often than not for me these days and won't let me read the pieces.
Europe can prove now whether it can still stay productive under the influence of debilitating heat and tropical illnesses.
Are people paying the Medium article ransom?
Exceedingly rare to find a talk about programming that draws on both Christopher Alexander and James C. Scott, two authors that I keep coming back to myself.
Even better that it uses them to explain why the Design Patterns failed, something that I also feeled but couldn't really put my finger onโI always thought this is just a silly thing that Java people doโand how they could be better.

If Berlin can't turn into Copenhagen, I'll take Singapore as the next best option.
Living in any large city is just a never-ending stream of exasperation. Some more than others.
