Also, it still counts as pushing straight to prod if your PR reviewer gives it a once-over and stamps it with “LGTM”

To have such a strong, undiffused, and distant light that it could realistically mimic the shadows on the moon, you would need very modern CGI to replace the shadows of every actor on every frame. Supposedly the recording we have of the moon landing is of a camera pointed at a tv screen because simultaneously broadcasting and recording at the same time was still newer tech that NASA didn’t have set up. And even then, you can see the quick falloff of the shadows and how they run parallel to each other. The sophistication to pull off a fake was just not there.

Tigran Hamasyan (Armenian piano jazz-metal)

The Gabriel Construct (self-described as art music iirc, but basically just some experimental rock)

Jaggery (avant-rock, cool harp sounds)

Noah Sias (deathcore? Just so fucking heavy idk)

Bent Knee (experimental rock, just an absolutely gorgeous song)

Mel Bryant (indie rock, great hook, cool breakdown)

No need to search when you already have someone you wanna pin it on.

Yeah, blackface is fucked up. And using spiritually significant indigenous clothing to go butt chug booze is fucked up. I think the difference is that blackface was never part of black culture. It was part of white culture. The appropriation part comes from the fact that it’s crossing cultural boundaries.

Funnily enough, lemon squash is what we call it when the elderly play racket sports

Look, just because PHP doesn’t have multiple inheritance doesn’t mean you can’t wildly overengineer everything.

The way people use words online is so debate brained. Cultural appropriation isn’t inherently bad. It’s just a thing that exists and holds connotations about an imbalance of exchange. Is aussie style sushi not still considered Japanese food? Like, we have california rolls, but no one says they’re eating Californian food while eating sushi.

“Lemonade” has several different meanings depending on where you are. Is aussie lemonade carbonated?

I’m a brain broken westerner and all I read was “shop for some cheap vacuum cleaners”. Point me in the right direction, fellow consuuuuumer

If I had to choose one I’d choose one of the ones that’s already going extinct so I could disrupt as few ecosystems as possible

Alternately, is there an invasive species that harms the ecosystems it invades and doesn’t have a non-invasive counterpart? Maybe domesticated cats?

We also experienced an initial explosion followed by a major drop and then steady growth. It’s healthy growth because it shows we’re keeping genuine daily users to compete with natural user churn.

I think that most core frameworks put a ton of effort into backwards compatibility. Maintainers of smaller libraries and glue packages, however…

Worker ownership of tech firms

That’s $385 for every person on earth

It’s good to know amp sims and VSTs on Linux have come far! The drums still aren’t where I’d like them to be to switch and I’ve tried several times to get Steven Slate Drums and Superior Drummer working with a VST bridge in Ubuntu Studio, with no luck. Still sticking with Apple for now, but at least I finally have Windows out of my house.

Why? I don’t understand what it is

That last one is really common. If people can ambiently hang out and form community in a space, it tends to be an unprofitable use of those spaces, so they keep disappearing.
