18·20 hours agoActually it started with spices, like black pepper.
Then they came with guns and did the “divide and rule” thing, by letting the kings fight each other.
I agree to a certain extent; at least elementary school should and remain device free.

It is not great, but however with WebEx, at least it comfortably runs in the browser without consuming all the CPUs.

Matrix being federated and interoperable from day 1 was pushing for this and there was a blog post on this:
1·24 days agoAgree! It can only act as a reference. I like the approach taken by distributions like Yunohost where all the details are abstracted away.
I think it can be configured and it depends on the client to allow it or not.
So…like Lemmy?
Without Fluoride all the humour in the world dies.
5·2 months agoHo-oh in real life!
Dear Pikachu, of course you are surprised. Learn how to expect and evade Team Rocket first.
7·5 months agoIt is a relief that there are no continental drift deniers.
Also punched cards had around 80 columns, which put a hard limit on the number of characters per line.
32·6 months agoIf it is a pay what you want model I am all for it. This would be similar to how elementary OS st
The problem with a fixed price is you have to always calibrate it according to the economy of the user’s geolocation. What is cheap for a person from a developed world may be unaffordable for a third world county.
4·6 months agoThe follow up question would be the opposing force which keeps them in orbit(als)? This balance of force was called the planetary model which has this shortcoming that electrons might fall into the nucleus.
If electrons actually followed such a trajectory, all atoms would act is miniature broadcasting stations. Moreover, the radiated energy would come from the kinetic energy of the orbiting electron; as this energy gets radiated away, there is less centrifugal force to oppose the attractive force due to the nucleus. The electron would quickly fall into the nucleus, following a trajectory that became known as the “death spiral of the electron”. According to classical physics, no atom based on this model could exist for more than a brief fraction of a second.
I am trying to recall what kind of forces enable the orbitals of electrons according to Quantum Mechanics.
5·6 months agoWhat I understand is Sheikh Hasina was turning into an authoritarian leader, having ruled from 1996-2001 and then from 2009 onwards. A combined 20 years in total!
She did some good things
In power, she won admiration for stabilising the country, tackling jihadist groups and growing the economy, largely through the garment manufacturing boom. The rate of extreme poverty halved.
some bad
But her rule became increasingly oppressive, with extrajudicial killings and the jailing of political opponents and journalists. There was growing anger about corruption, especially as the economy foundered and living costs soared in the wake of the pandemic.
and really sketchy things
With youth unemployment at 40%, the reintroduction of government job quotas for descendants of those who fought in the Bangladesh independence war in 1971 – seen as a bung to party supporters – brought students out in protest.
Removed by mod
IIUC, copying over RustPython parser is an interesting detail, but that change happened earlier (2023!) when they were building Ruff, so it is old news. This piece of code called red-knot seems to be mostly original work, as far as I can tell.
