It’s not “people vs persons” but “those people vs they”.

Conversationally, “those/these” distances you from the group you are talking about, which is humorously weird when it’s your family you’re talking about.

It’s not the meaning of the words, but habitual (and often fleeting) attribution around them that tripped you up.

PS: “People” are uncountable, “persons” are countable. That’s basically the whole difference between the two plurals. Although it’s rapidly disappearing, as “ten people” won’t raise a single eyebrow in a conversation.

Ten and a half. And that’s only if we discount Tuzla island dispute and continuous attempts to take control of politics and economy.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Considering that git doesn’t need federation, and email is the grandfather of federation, sourcehut has a working version of it this very moment.

Laws of Ukraine explicitly state that elections cannot be held in a wartime. These provisions are older than current presidency and parliament.

Claim to illegitimacy due to refused elections is the best way to tell everyone you gobble up Russian propaganda.

Occupying a country that size doesn’t take a mere week. So no, it won’t.

You’re one link click away from understanding why your message is stupid. Question is whether it’s message alone.

Teeth cannot produce enamel. Enamel is not a living tissue and it was produced by cells outside of the tooth in a coral-like manner. In order to grow a new tooth, you need it to be fully surrounded by specialized living tissue for the whole growth cycle.

PS: I honestly expected something like this to come out of bioelectric computation research, but progress seems slower there. Or rather knowledge and techniques in other fields is reaching critical mass, giving us these advances.

So in a choice between arrest and killing innocents, choosing to kill innocents is moral somehow?

Identification != Authentication

As obvious as this sounds, I’ve learned over the years that most people don’t understand what it means exactly.

It’s called Russia Law because it’s literally a Russian law copied verbatim

Sounds a lot like US House of Representatives, but in this case I don’t see why not.

As we all know, siphoning of the power to the small percentage of people had never happened prior to capitalism.

Support for QUIC and HTTP/3 protocols is available since 1.25.0. Also, since 1.25.0, the QUIC and HTTP/3 support is available in Linux binary packages.

2023-05-23 nginx-1.25.0 mainline version has been released, featuring experimental HTTP/3 support.

It’s not a dev code. It would also take a mere minute to check this before failing to sound smart.

Even better, the dude forked because a security issue in “experimental” but nonetheless released feature was responsibly announced.

Talk about an ego.

• USA is not the most diverse country (its ethnic fractionalization index is below that of Moldova - https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-racially-diverse-countries or https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_ranked_by_ethnic_and_cultural_diversity_level)
• Out of listed countries, the only one that exhibits clear signs of ethnonationalism is Russia (although I have to admit to be fairly ignorant on state of things in Argentina)
• Lumping Russia with its former colonies screams “ignorance”
• Grabbing a bunch of countries from the oldest trade route and thinking they are gonna be ethnically homogenous echoes the previous scream
• Me spending time on this post is a clear evidence of procrastination
• Poland has universal healthcare, walkable cities, affordable intra- and intercity public transportation, and provides free higher education to its citizens
• Moldova provides free education to its citizens and has universal healthcare
• Even Russia has a still working universal healthcare (terrible by many standards, but still beats US) and provides higher education to its citizens
• Argentina has universal healthcare and offers free higher education to it’s citizens
• Why am I still procrastinating? Send help!

USA is a dominant superpower though.

Problem with money is that money only have value when people are willing to exchange money for goods and services.

The moment that exchange stops, value of money plummets.

A very good analogy I saw in Charles Stross’ “Neptune’s brood” is that money is a concrete representation of an abstract debt. Exchange materializes that debt into a trade, which is where valuation happens. I’m pretty sure I just made a lot of economists justifiably angry though

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t this allow one to represent virtually any resource as a mail inbox/outbox with access through a generic mail app?

I’m working with a specialized healthcare company right now, and this looks like a way to represent patient treatments data as an intuitive timeline of messages. With a local offline cache in case of outages. Security of local workstations is a weak point of course, but when is it not…
