  • I saw the following meme the other day on that topic which I found amazing:

    On the other hand I hope my point was clear about pink being perceived as a color when it doesn't exist as a singular wavelength on the electromagnetic spectrum: something the person I was responding to was seemingly arguing that it then invalidates what we might call a "color". By his logic "pink" shouldn't be considered a color, which I disagree with!

    • "far-right" gains lots of seats during european deputy elections
    • people shocked
    • Macron somehow figures this means people have new priorities and dissolves the general assembly
    • new elections
    • expected a swing victory for "far-right"
    • they actually lose seats
    • left coalition comes out on top, but with relative majority of seats only (<50%)
    • unexpected but welcome turn of events
    • issue: since no one has absolute majority it's difficult to vote stuff
    • budget
    • Macron wants (NEEDS) to fix the debt issue
    • they'll cut expenses in public services, mass layoffs
    • left coalition wants to find the missing money not by cutting but by taxing places where money accumulated (i.e. The Rich™)
    • left lands amends in the budget plan
    • prime minister overrules the plan using "49.3" and approves the initial Fuck The People <3 Budget Plan™
    • this unlocks the prime minister's ejection seat button
    • prime minister is ejected
    • Macron needs to pick yet another prime minister, hopefully this time he won't put one of his cronies to overrule the elected majority's priorities
  • The simple argument as to why this wouldn't make conservatives happy is that they want as many babies as possible: preaching for big families, destroying contraception, abortion rights, etc. Birthrates were falling but the orphan-crushing machine requires new blood.

    In that sense as weird as this 4B movement sound it's most definitely a big middle finger to that all.

  • You need to know where to look for said evidence, this is one new lead. Measure planet wobble for a few years and see if there's anything. Other experiments can and will be carried in parallel in the meantime.

  • Godot definitely has sponsors which while not directly being "customers" are still very important when it comes to financing the development of the engine

    Having said that I want to believe current sponsors won't have issues with the Godot Foundation here

  • [...] it was decided that the language would be called “ECMAScript” instead. (Microsoft happily offered up “JScript”, but no-one else wanted that.) Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and a co-signatory of this letter, wrote in 2006 that “ECMAScript was always an unwanted trade name that sounds like a skin disease.”

    I tend to agree with these sentiments

  • You say that as if machines don't get dirty and still require a good amount of hygiene/cleaning to keep up

    Don't get me wrong though because I am also in favor of automation only because I believe it will make some parts of work more bearable, minus the job displacement problem caused by our current economic model...
