This works as designed. Sanctions like these are meant to piss off the people living in terrorist states so that you either rise up and rid yourself of all terrorist roots or you accept that the rest of the world doesn’t want to play ball w

Until you come here and realise that your 300k US job only pays 60k here, of which you get taxed more than a third of it and then your taxes only buy you a 2 year NHS waiting list where by the time you get to see a doctor your tumour has gr

Oh man... we here in the UK and EU look at the US with envy. Our governments are so inept to even understand basic economics (currently the UK is trying to tax itself to growth), whilst the US government is enabling their own people and US

Very cool, reminds me of SigNoz. How would I self host this in k8s? Would I deploy a ClickHouse cluster using the Altinity operator and then connect it using the HyperDX local mode or what is the recommended approach to self-host ClickStack

I tried it and found it to be such an abomination. I can’t understand why any self respecting software developer would use Windows with a bastard linux like WSL instead of just using actual Linux. Feels like a massive skill issue.

This is not the first or last time this has happened. Microsoft does it intentionally and when they get caught they then give a fake apology and pretend it was a mistake. These mistakes keep happening and the pattern is always the same, MS

Huh? Nobody made any statements about bathroom usage or such, nor has the UK ruling anything to do with bathroom access. We are discussing the definition of sex and how the court ruling came to the conclusion .

Ok what you both say makes sense but none of what you said so far negates the fact that strictly speaking sex is binary, defined by the existence of a Y chromosome and that this is also immutable. It’s completely possible that the externali

Isn't what you described here just a variation of chromosomes? We know there are more than two combinations, but Sex is still determined binary via the existence or absence of the Y chromosome, no?

> biologists and anthropologists recognize that human biological sex is complex Have you got any credible sources which support this statement? I have only seen papers which confirm that sex is binary and immutable.

Am I the only one who finds it weird that people want to migrate their tweets? Is it just sentimental feelings or what is the purpose of that? To me tweets have always just been in-the-moment brain farts. People have tens of thousands of tw

C# has become a poor jack of all trades, trying to be Java, Go and F# at the same time and actually being a shity poor version of all of them. On top of that .NET has become a very enterprisey bloatware. In all honesty, I'm not surpris

Meanwhile .NET developers are still waiting for Microsoft to use their own "inventions" like Blazor, .NET MAUI, Aspire, etc. for anything meaningful. Bless them.

I am European and I live in the UK, so I don't think I have voted my way out of anything unfortunately. Also I don't care about white, my own children are not white. I care about the core values and principles of the Western world

I know ISO 8601, but that doesn't answer my question. Let me rephrase this, why was a format intuitive to a machine chosen instead of a format which feels more intuitive to a human? I think YYYY/MM/DD - YYYY/MM/DD w

Things like Markdown work because they are intuitive, but the date range syntax in Markwhen is anything but intuitive. Why 2025-01-22 / 2026-10-24? Why not 2025/01/22 - 2026/10/24?
