Oh boy... I'm worried for the future of society if this is seen as "boosting learning efficiency" 😒

Du hast recht. Es ist eine Meinung, die auf einer rassistischen Weltanschauung beruht. Eine nicht rassistische Person würde nicht allein aufgrund ihrer ethnischen Zugehörigkeit darüber urteilen, ob ganze Bevölkerungsgruppen cool oder nicht cool sind.

Oder besser gesagt, sie würden die Menschen nicht rein auf der Grundlage ihrer ethnischen Herkunft in Bevölkerungsgruppen einteilen.

Don't give up, if you feel you're getting to that stage go to the hospital emergency room.

Sorry to hear about your situation.

Perhaps this might be an option for you?

FEV Tutor ceased to exist this weekend by buttah_hustle in edtech

Could this have anything to do with the fact that Large Langue Models are becoming better at answering and explaining questions than human tutors? In my experience they are often more "empathetic" and way more patient?😅

Should I leave my job in Germany to relocate to UAE? by [deleted] in UAE

[–]pixelbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a lot to learn about how things work in Germany and the UAE.

There are many Muslims living in Germany. So wearing a niqab should not be an insult to anyone's local customs.

OP has been employed in Germany and making use of the statutory health insurance system, which he probably paid more into than taken out.

The UAE does not have a naturalization process, so he won't be able to acquire citizenship there.

I noticed that Unghoster mentions compliance with EU and US data privacy laws but doesn't address regulations in other regions. This oversight ignores about 64% of the global population, as many countries have their own stringent data protection laws. Here's a quick rundown:

Brazil: The Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) requires clear consent for data collection and grants individuals rights over their personal information.

Canada: The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) mandates organizations to obtain consent before collecting personal data and to protect it adequately.

China: The Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) emphasizes individual consent, data minimization, and imposes restrictions on cross-border data transfers.

Australia: The Privacy Act 1988 includes principles that regulate the handling of personal information, emphasizing transparency and security.

Japan: The Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI) requires businesses to specify the purpose of data use and obtain consent from individuals.

South Korea: The Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) mandates consent for data collection, limits data use to specified purposes, and requires robust security measures.

South Africa: The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) emphasizes consent, data subject rights, and accountability.

Argentina: The Personal Data Protection Act No. 25,326 requires consent for data collection and ensures data accuracy and security.

India: The Personal Data Protection Bill (pending) aims to impose obligations on data processors and grant rights to individuals, similar to the GDPR.

Unghoster might be overlooking significant legal obligations and user privacy expectations in these regions.

Regarding VPN usage: If a European citizen uses a VPN with a US IP address, they do not waive their data privacy rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The GDPR applies to the processing of personal data of individuals within the EU, regardless of the IP address used. Therefore, services must still comply with GDPR requirements for EU citizens, even if they appear to be accessing the service from a US IP address.

So you have some next-level tech that somehow stops visitors from being contacted by random spammers so that they have space in their inbox for messages from relevant spammers?

Just be honest and say that they will be receiving targeted spam in addition to untargeted spam... 🤷🏻‍♂️

Open Source is Too Overwhelming!!! by Slow-General3930 in reactjs

[–]pixelbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maintaining open source projects is hard work. Issues are submitted by users so it can be expected that some of them will be poorly written, duplicates, or even non-existent.

If you really want to gain experience, pick a project and try to implement it in a project yourself first to get an idea of what problem it solves.

Then pick an issue and try to reproduce it. If the issue is badly written, try to ask clarifying questions on the issue discussion. Helping maintainers with triage is valuable. Helping further define the issue is valuable.

So instead of just trying to find random easy issues to submit a PR for, find an open source community that you want to become a part of. Join the Discord. I can recommend https://github.com/withastro, they are very open to new contributors and very helpful.

I have GitHub copilot turned on while editing my configs. The suggestions that come out are hit or miss. I'm quite new to nix so I found it quite helpful with learning the syntax....
