This is a little outside my bubble - what specifically are you worried about? I have a couple acquaintances that are trans and they seem like normal happy people that aren't overtly oppressed. I'm under the impression that the st

If you want a real 'farmers box', look into Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). I've never seen those programs not be local seasonally-appropriate food. The change in produce over the year is part if the fun.

I've come around to that conclusion on other verboten words, if other people don't like them it's not a big deal for me to stop using them. And I suppose it's less typing to push to main than it is to push to master.

It's funny, and common, to hear new-learners complain that git's too complex. It's so much better than all the alternatives, and 99% of the time it's incredibly simple to interact with. Definitely feels a little weird t

Do any modern cars have OBD readers integrated into the infotainment system? It seems like a no brainer to show the error code w/ a description. Though that might decrease the number of dealer visits compared to a non-descriptive chec

If the display appears at infinite focal depth it might be better for eyes than traditional screens that require focusing on something close.

I love being a C developer. I'll still be using it when I retire, though hopefully mixed with Rust instead of C++.

People often lament the cost of the aircraft in situations like this. The pilot is also super expensive. Maybe moreso than the plane.

You don't have to sign into browsers. You don't even need an apple ID, I use a local account on my macbook. It's not the happy path though. We need a tech a company that prioritizes local-first designs.

Part of the problem is the nuance. There's only a few forms of sugar - sucrose, fructose, lactose. There's a lot of forms of fat - different combos of length of the chain (omega #), amount of saturation, hydrogenation, triglycer

There's a conspiracy theory that some types of phenomena are lost in the Heaviside formulation of Maxwell's equations, but describable with the original form that used quaternions. e.g. 'scalar waves' that are used for

Could that T cell depletion have been caused by isolation and masking during the pandemic rather than covid directly?

I've come to the conclusion that psychodynamic therapy is harmful for neurotic depressives like myself. Dwelling in my neuroses enhances them. I wish there was a triage psychiatrist I could see that would help me identify the most eff

> Why are you using PCPs? For primary care. I believe that's where the name Primary Care Provider comes from. The difference from urgent care is long term. Having the same PCP for long periods of time provides an opportunity for d

Interesting idea! Supercaps might be a better fit than batteries.

Isn't the end result of not caring what other's think being antisocial? At least for those of us that are neurodivergent and don't naturally click with others.

Are you trying to convince the OP to end their life? A high-functioning BPD sufferer can learn to be aware of behaviors that negatively impact others and minimize them. OP is likely an individual like that. Don't take hope from the ho

What do you mean by everyone? The MDs sound fine, as soon as a breath is seen they drop the scalpel and refuse to murder anyone.

> The person to whom I replied is self-motivated to terminate their addictive patterns. Kind of. The captain of the ship is motivated, but the helmsman needs to get his shit together.

Other brains: No joy in response to future or present rewards. Anxiety on the journey, shame at the destination.

Can you elaborate on what medications impact gambling behaviors? I have some addictive/compulsive behaviors that have been hard to shake. GLP-1 agonists look promising, but I'm not sure how to get a prescription since I'm no

There's a lot of chess configs, but there's a LOT of atoms in the observable universe. I suspect there's a few in the unobservable universe too. Chess configs = 4.8 x 10^44, Atoms > 10^70 https://tromp.github.io
