like a Tuesday one

Like half a dude.

Yes, because I don't use drugs recreationally.

Most real-world phenomena would be better represented as regular Directed Graphs than Directed Acyclic Graphs, even ones that are traditionally abstracted as DAGs.

Waiting and Party Down were both great about depicting the experience of food service, but gay men and Latinos were criminally underrepresented in both.

I have a strong relationship to what you get when you divide by zero.

Good ol' NaN

Pi is a real number, though. It's irrational, but real.

Said "fuck it", pulled everything out of the kitchen, scrubbed, repainted. Next time I get an afternoon free I'll put the trim back up.

My whole life, yeah.

I'd be more likely to blame the lead exposure on the deregulation that red areas tend to favor, but I know the truth is more insidious: both are correlated to poverty.

They’ve dealt with so many bad actors in the past

This is for sure part of it. Remember that most of us fled here from reddit, and many made a clean break. For me, that includes avoiding political discussion communities. I actively moderated two conservative political communities for years (r/AskConservatives and r/Tuesday) and also r/As an American, where political discussions often came up. I'm just exhausted by it. I've seen every bad argument under the sun from and towards every major political position.

When I spooled down reddit, resigned my modship in r/AskConservatives, and came to lemmy, I resolved to a) never mod a discussion community again and 2] never sub a political discussion community. And my life became so much better! I still engage with politics IRL, with real people in my community, but have zero interest in seeking out the same here.

So yes, if you want to discuss certain topics here you've got an uphill slog. And if you don't want to be treated like a bad-faith actor you've got to put in the work to build a reputation as a good-faith one. There's no shortcut for that; users recognize each other here.

the best sim, the best 4X, the best FPS, my favorite level-editor engine, my favorite action platformer

that's not necessarily a problem in this context

I read an interview with him once where he said it was initially supposed to be the "house" version of SimCity, and be about how good or bad architecture shapes the lives of the house's inhabitants. But their playtesters were spending all their time on the people, not the building, so the pivoted to making it more about the Sims' interactions.

IME, you can really see the bones of that initial concept in Sims 1; but it's stayed throughout the series.

Author Jim Butcher once said something like, "Give me one bad idea and it's a bad idea. Give me two bad ideas and I'll write a bestseller."

Someone gave him "the lost Roman legion" and "Pokémon" and he wrote a series that's yards better than Dresden Files.

Could be worse, could be a Garret.

I could get behind "warrens"

I've been saying "munis" and it seems to work fine

If there's a local community / cultural center, they probably offer classes or even immersion. My local mutual aid society has Spanish-immersion craft night once a week.

sounds like labels just aren't that useful to you
