@Dee looking forward to the first international diplomatic incident because the tz maintainer refused to update it
@Dee also because if something is done wrong in this obscure project, basically every computer everywhere in the world breaks

student loans discourse
so a lotta people say that they don't wanna cancel student loans bc they have paid for it, and if they are gonna cancel them, that means their efforts were useless
they are obviously wrong (sunk cost fallacy aka "I already started so I might as well continue even though this is harmful to me and others)
but what really interested me is that you think we should still help those people
here's why:

@julialuna@chaos.social I have this with anxiety episodes. Once the anxiety *resolves*, my body goes completely haywire for the next 24 hours - digestive issues, headaches, everything, as if it's trying to purge something.
I almost can't believe that this needs to be said, but "well that's capitalism for you, not an individual problem" is *not* an excuse to defend someone who goes above and beyond in playing the game of capitalism, and harms people in the process.

Today, I learned to count.
Or, I learned how to trick a bunch of sand to pretend it's another bunch of sand that knows how to count.
@kassie@treehouse.systems as if I "schedule" anything further than 3 days ahead...

I notice this so much in companies, big companies, who continuously have to justify their accessibility teams. "A screen reader isn't just for blind people, people who are outside in the sun and can't see the screen clearly use this!" Maybe, but that's not its main use case. That's basically sidelining blind people. Making our disability not even count. But it does. I have to live with it every minute of every day.
@msjl@social.sp-codes.de @rghvdberg@sonomu.club Hopelijk is dit niet een van die bedrijven die autisten onderbetaalt? Die zijn er namelijk ook een aantal.
@Byte@kolektiva.social @kescher @schratze They do entirely different things; fsearch is for searching in filenames, whereas Baloo is for searching in file *contents*, including those contained in archives - so naturally the index is much bigger, as it's a complete full-text index instead of just a file path tree
linux question
@schratze Named workspaces, basically
@jasper @aral This primarily manifests on a shell level, though? I'm not sure what issues you're seeing on an OS level - there's plenty wrong the design of current-gen OSes, but it's already entirely possible to use standardized serialization formats today without requiring OS-level changes.
What specifically would need to change for this on the OS level?

Maybe some day I can express concerns about the culture of (programming) language bashing and not be immediately attacked for it. I guess today is not that day.
job postings be like
@julialuna@chaos.social And then complain about "employee shortages"
@maia Because business books are primarily aimed at people who think themselves much more rational than they actually are
