So many "developers produce more quantities of code with copilot" studies so few "the patterns of interleaving and retrieval change depending on active vs passive consumption of generated solutions and we have like fifty years of research on this in learning science and so maybe we can apply it to make good recommendations about the best usage of generated work output" studies
A thing to know about that second photo: in roller derby, if only one hand touches out of bounds, it doesn't count. Making sure only one hand goes down is something we've been working on this season.
After being raised as a binary gender since birth, our child declared - at three years old - that they weren't a boy or a girl, and has insisted on they/them pronouns ever since.
They deserve to participate in Pride.
From gender feelings to crushes to first kisses, many kids know they're queer. The idea that LGBTQ+ stuff is only appropriate for adults is conservative nonsense, an agenda that wants to make our identities back into lewd perversions instead of just normal human variation.
I can't figure out if this is a good blogpost topic or not, but I've been thinking about how many conversations I see about human behavior in software overindex on like, differences between people* and not within-individual variation**
Overall malleability of our own traits and states over time is fascinating and underexplored in a very essentialist kind of culture***
"all managers are like x"
** "some days I am like x and some days I am like y"
@grimalkina conjecture: this is the same disease that causes tech bros to think that everyone should have exactly one online persona and all of their activity should be public
@grimalkina that, plus the idea that you wanna link all your accounts across all platforms. Also: providing public/mutuals/private as the only posting options on social media, without an easy way to define different circles and personas. It's a constellation of things that says "we expect you to want to have one online face, via which you interact with all services and people", which everyone then works around via alternate emails, private and ad accounts, etc.
ok so I was trying to figure out what year the magic purple honda civic 3 door hatchback I had back in college was because my insomnia has been really awful the last two days and I had this great idea that I should make a game where you have to figure out how to drive the magic purple honda civic 3 door hatchback I had back in college, and anyway I totally failed to find it but I stumbled upon this amazing and improbable website and I don't know what's real anymore: https://www.lingscars.com/personal-car-leasing/honda/civic/4374098-2.0-eHEV-Sport-(143bhp)-Hatchback-5dr-Petrol-electric-Hybrid-CVT
@aeva I have also had the brakes go out on a manual and yeah, you just limp around in first and use the parking brake.
Fortunately we were near a service station when we noticed; we'd previously done a bunch of mountain driving and if the brakes had gone out at 70 on the highway... well, okay, we would also have downshifted and probably been fine but I would have also fucking panicked lol.
There are a lot of songs about New York but it speaks to both my age and my cultural background that the one currently playing in my head is Billy Joel's New York State of Mind.
One of the greatest entertainers and singer-songwriters of the late 20th century and it makes me sad that - if we're being real - most people won't know who he is in a few decades.
@eniko I picked m.s for this very reason and have never been disappointed. I need to network in multiple spheres and can't have a situation where the server I'm on and the server other people are on can't talk to each other.
It's clear from the responses that while m.s is sometimes silenced in feeds, it's almost never blocked. I think if you have a critical business account, that's a pretty safe situation to be in.
(I also think it's great that your personal account is not on m.s)
