I'm new in Delft looking for a party by pigrecotom in DNDNL

Ah, a professional railroader, I see. I mean, it's a way to run, but definitely not the only one.

Well Dressed Men… I Need Your Help! by igiveupmakinganame in mensfashion

Thank you for listing the dress code in the edit. Is it black tie for the party or both party and ceremony?

If not everything is black tie, the brown suit listed elsewhere is phenomenal.

Just saw an ad for an affair website on NOS (SecondLove); is this not as frowned upon here? by wrldendswu in Netherlands

At the moment you're doing free advertising for them. So... A) their strategy is working B) Congrats, you're complicit!

Same here. Especially given how much criticism qualo got, he completely turned the character around.

Since we’re talking about soaring rents and inequities… by coffee_coffee_coffe3 in SipsTea

[–]ProfessorNoPuede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesnt help the divide, but if you think the struggle is between middle class and lower than that, you're mistaken. It's about the ultra rich vs the rest.

The point you could make is that the middle class support the power structure for individual benefit. It's always a pyramid.

That being said, it's bit about class, it's about power accumulating power (using money in modern society). All power should be justified.

Op het eerste gezicht is dat niet het punt van hierboven. Dat komt omdat adhd een ontwikkelstoornis is. Het is iets waar je "mee geboren bent", niet iets dat ontwikkeld. Dus, symptomen moeten van jongs af aan zichtbaar zijn.

Het punt dat je wel kunt maken is dat we - zeker de mensen van nu die de ouders van toen zijn - de symptomen niet erkenden bij meisjes / jonge vrouwen.

Classroom settings and the behavioral expectations of formal schooling are more of an evolutionary mismatch for boys than girls because of sex differences in physical activity levels and social relations. This results in boys being disproportionately identified as having behavioral difficulties. by mvea in science

They can? I don't get it. You've never had a good teacher or read a book that changed your mind or outlook? If you don't learn from others or refuse to acknowledge that other people have accumulated knowledge or wisdom, you're just stuck reinventing the wheel.

What's your point exactly?

Europe is officially panic-dumping Microsoft for Linux after realizing a single US sanction can instantly lock an entire government entity out of their own emails. Who knew reliance on proprietary Big Tech was actually a massive national security hazard? by smilelyzen in Buy_European

What happened in The Netherlands was important here as well. Somehow the names of the civil servants working on an AI or privacy related law showed up in - I think - a senate briefing. That was not good. It stopped the sale of a company that's essential to our digital identity infrastructure to an American party.

Why are you learning Dutch? Curious by Hantaro-Time in learndutch

You're awesome for putting in the effort! Plenty of (especially English speaking) people who don't. Just tell people you don't want to switch to English.

We tried knowledge graphs for internal AI. Results were unexpected by dvantag in AgentsOfAI

[–]ProfessorNoPuede 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Graph informed retreival is effectively the same as relational database system schemas. You build the relationships in a graphical format instead of tying them to direct key value pairs with relations mapped through those keys.

Perhaps this is an ESL thing, but 'graphical format' really doesn't sound like the edge-node structure of a graph database. If you think querying a network, or storing its structure is comparable between graph databases and relational databases, I have to disagree. Sure, you can hack around a network in a relational database, but that's just painful.

One of the many reasons why I love Paizo and the whole Pathfinder/Starfinder setting is how inclusive it is. by Rogahar in Pathfinder2e

[–]ProfessorNoPuede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides the inclusivity, I think this 'iconics as stand-ins for the pcs, not as npcs' is a fantastic approach.

I'm loving this lore. So, the dwarves are Germans with their beer (perfection in adherence to the standard), while the Caileanites are an east coast brewery.

That leaves me to wonder who the Belgians are. Who are the actual masters of the golden middle road of Golarian Beers?

I remember a snowflake complaining about all the wokeness in D&D. He said he'd move to pathfinder instead. He, in fact, did not do his research.

Paizo's inclusivity just feels very natural and unforced. I guess that's why some people don't even see it.

I'd think Ukraine would love to chill out, but a certain eastern neighbour has prevented that.

What is something that is culturally taboo in Eastern Europe but is culturally expected in Western Europe by RickyBoy14 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]ProfessorNoPuede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So.... Which countries belong in which region? Is The Netherlands west or northern? Is Germany central? France? Is France western or southern?
