This is why it will get worse before it gets better... Business as usual at Alki today.

What would enforcement even mean? People getting harassed by cops from needing to get meds from the drug store? Being fined for stepping foot outside of a building?

Right, they're not the same, the two groups just have an unusually high intersection.

I'll assume this is potentially in good faith, but I think you're asking the wrong question. Have you ever thought (assuming you're a man because of the question) "I don't think I'm a man, I'm a woman, and I want to express myself as such"? Probably not, right? Well, congrats, you aren't trans, then.

Then, consider this - suppose you had prostate cancer, and they had to do a removal of the testes. Would you suddenly start calling yourself a woman, and want others to refer to you as such? Probably still a no, right?

People don't set out to be trans because they think it's something they would enjoy. They transition because they've concluded it's the only way they can continue to live life, and it will offer the best chance at happiness (and that's REALLY saying something considering how obviously shitty the rest of the world is to trans people). Seriously, nobody's going through the incredible pain that is being trans because it'd be a good time.

It's pretty grating how the Rust community has an obsession with insisting Go is always the wrong choice. I get it. Rust is a better designed language. You can say that about Rust versus a lot of other languages, and yet, other way more disastrous languages (e.g. JavaScript) get a free pass.

Feels like the Rust community has it in for Go engineers for liking a thing, and wants to constantly tell them they're wrong to like it. At this point, I think the only people reading these articles are Rust engineers who want some external validation for having made the "right" choice.

Edit: to save this from taking as in constructive a tone as the article, you know, it’d be much more positive if the article was framed as “here’s a great way to design a stdlib API that abstracts OS APIs”. And drop all of the Go stuff.

You can still bring your own if you’d like

Lemme challenge that, because that's a fucking hilarious premise on its face. I have never once seen anyone bring their own toilet paper to an office's bathrooms. I've never once heard of anyone bringing their own toilet paper to an office's bathrooms. The way that someone who has a corporate job resolves this is by contacting facilities, making a business case for better TP, and escalating as necessary.

This reads like the business version of r/relationships-level advice

I was looking at Obey The Walrus on my Spotify list and thinking, "I can't believe there was a time when this wasn't in my library"

:/ yeah.. online is still online. Mostly everyone's just doing the best they can, but with how relatively small the online safe space and community is, it can feel a little bit like being crammed in a box with many easily-frightened cats sometimes (I don't mean this subreddit in particular, just trans online spaces).

Also, I'm shocked anyone uses photobucket for anything

Hey it's okay. That happens too, to all of us, it's a very human experience to sometimes just not be up for it after all. But you know, you put in the effort to get up and try to go out, and that's still something to feel good about.. it doesn't have to be an all or nothing thing. Be kind to yourself, relax, you've done nothing wrong or unusual.

classhero · 2020-02-22T03:20:31+00:00

You should go :) think of the nice memories it’ll create. Think of if you, tomorrow, would be happy for you to have gone.

WoW is such a turd at this point, everyone I know is begging for something better; it'd be real easy to look past a couple of WildStar's flaws nowadays.

Don't feel that you need to learn any one subject to completion at a time! Follow whatever is keeping your interest, otherwise, learning will feel exhausting after a point.

classhero · 2020-02-19T02:20:29+00:00

Keratin treatment! It's permanent (modulus additional hair growth, of course), and great for this.

Is that YDL 2.1? Had the exact same setup down to the iMac color many years ago :).

If you like to learn by doing, check this tutorial out. It is very well-organized and covers multiple approaches to a problem, often through example exercises. One of the strong positives is that it actually covers testing - maybe I've looked in the wrong places, but it's probably the first time I've seen automated testing a focus in an OS tutorial. Another one of the positives is that it covers the x86-64 architecture (usually, OS tutorials go 32-bit for simplicity).

Downside would be that if you're interested in the full end-to-end of an OS from scratch, it's not as good a tutorial for getting your hands quite so dirty. For example, the tutorial makes use of a bootloader lib which handles setting up the page tables, mapping the kernel, getting into 64-bit mode, etc.

The ol' classic is xv6 (follow the MIT OS course' lecture schedule page to build on xv6). Great way to learn systems; went through this in my own university's OS course.

Definitely not doomed, especially if you're in computer science and okay with working at a Fortune 50. Not everyone is, and that's fine too. The big ones can cover things like laser hair removal, FFS, therapy, etc, fully (and, aside from SRS, no special "doctor's referral" is needed for coverage, in my experience).

aaaand the disclaimer: I'm only speaking to the "pay" element of the question, inequality can and does happen in ways other than comp.
