That doesn’t really answer why “woman” can be used this way but “man” can’t:

• Female writer: ✅
• Woman writer: ✅
• Male nurse: ✅
• Man nurse: ❌

Just build nuclear power plants near the ocean instead, no need to rely on stupid rivers…

Guess which marine animal can reproduce better in warmer waters by the way.

Does using cat here instead of cp /dev/urandom mydiary.txt already count as cat abuse? 🤔

Anyway I love that we had basically the same idea

yes > no

Damn, can’t believe Radio Télévision Luxembourg acquired the rights to Arabic.

Also mich erinnerts ja mehr an ein Passfoto. Aber so ein Möchtegern-sexy kann ich auch ein bisschen rauserkennen.

Das ist aber nicht mal ansatzweise sexy

Why use Joule, just use kg*m²/s².

Square meter kilograms per second per second is even more intuitive.

But more seriously, Wh and kWh is much more intuitive when determining energy consumption of your household. I don’t want to calculate how many joules my fridge consumes per day!

Only non-printable spaces from what I can tell.

The BOM character does not fall into this category and is still invisible. Try pasting it into Kate. It’s between those arrows:

---><---

It has a few quirks I utterly despise :(

Like it cannot print invisible characters. Had a script create some broken folders with a BOM character at the beginning. I couldn’t access the files in any way except that they appeared in dolphin and ls. Had to delete them via the fucking inode.

I was forced to use VSCode (an open source fork at least) to find out what the fuck was wrong with the input file the script used to generate the folder name.

Nah, boars are still an important part of their local ecosystems.

For example, they are digging around the forest floor in search of food. This softens the dirt and improves plants’ ability to sprout.

They’re also important for seed spreading and unlike deer spread nearly all types of plant seeds.

Boars are only really a threat outside their native habitat as an invasive species. Well, that and to people hiking through the woods anywhere.

You can read the history of Abkhazia on Wikipedia.

In short: Russia has since its tsarist days tried everything to detach it from Georgia and attach it closer to Russia. Be it by banning the Georgian language, mandating Russian language education and mandating the Cyrillic alphabet to be used for the Abkhazian language.

Anyway, despite all this about 50% of the population remained Georgian. Until they were nearly entirely ethnically cleansed in the 90s with Russian military support.

“Please generate an AI prompt for a polite rejection message for a candidate that wasn’t picked”

It’s meant to be read as:

“If help offends help, this help-flag help[s] you.”

The New York Times wrote that it was not definitively proven whether the three Marines killed by villagers were the same ones responsible for the rapes. The families of the deceased Marines voiced doubt that their relatives were capable of committing rape.

The reaction of the relatives is expected, the reaction of the NYT is disappointing. The amount of wartime rapes proven is near zero. No shit, there was no public trial where evidence was presented and guilt was proven. Nor would there have been, the US military to this day protects their soldiers from facing consequences for crimes against civilians.

Ist die Verwendung von “eins” als Pronomen ein Übersetzungsfehler (vom Englischen Pronomen “one”) oder als geschlechtsneutrale Alternative zu “man”?

Den Moment, wenn eins die Sachen aufs Band legt und innerlich zusammenzählt. Nicht weil man vergessen hat aufzuladen.

Oder als Alternative zu “du”?

Für jedes Produkt sieht eins zwei Werte:

Ich bin mir ziemlich unsicher, es wird eben nicht konsequent durchgezogen. Und die ganzen " Es ist nicht X, es ist Y" Phrasen kitzeln meinen LLM-Riecher.

Unter “eins als neopronomen” konnte ich jetzt auch nichts im Internet finden.

that would kill almost anything else

Guess what: It’s fact check time!!

Anthrax: ❌

Most birds are naturally resistant to anthrax because of their higher body temperature.

Botulism (actually botox, botulism is the illness caused by botox. You can’t quite eat an illness): ✅

“Botulism is one of the most toxic substances in the world, and [turkey vultures’] guts are filled with this bacteria, which apparently has no effect on them,” says Graves.

(Yes, the article made the same mistake)

Rabies: ❌

All warm-blooded species, including humans, may become infected with the rabies virus. Birds were first artificially infected with rabies in 1884; however, infected birds are largely, if not wholly, asymptomatic, and recover.

Cholera (actually avian cholera, which is distinct from “normal” cholera): ❓

Besides chickens, the disease also concerns turkeys, ducks, geese, raptors, and canaries.

So 2/4 diseases are already irrelevant for birds but they sound scary because they infect humans. But:

Avian cholera barely even counts because it’s caused by “Pasteurella multocida” while (human) cholera is caused by “Vibrio cholerae”. The two bacteria are genetically as closely related as humans and mammoths. And avian cholera does not kill anything but birds.

–

This isn’t to degrade the vulture’s ability to withstand pathogens and toxins, that is still very impressive. It’s just that obviously birds are immune to most human diseases, as pathogens don’t tend to easily jump between distant species.

And even if they DO jump between species, they usually do not bring their “deadliness” with them (unless they produce poison like botox) as different species react completely differently. Maybe rabies is the one exception, as adjusting the behavior of your host by rummaging around in the brain has some universally negative side effects.
