As far as I understand people have already looked into that idea.
To quote [1]: “Another, longer-run, approach seeks to improve individual evaluation of the quality of information sources through education. There has been a proliferation of efforts to inject training of critical-information skills into primary and secondary schools (12). However, it is uncertain whether such ef- forts improve assessments of information credibility or if any such effects will persist over time. An emphasis on fake news might also have the unintended consequence of reducing the perceived credibility of real- news outlets. There is a great need for rigorous program evaluation of different educational interventions.”

Amusingly enough 1Password's main area of pain (for me) has been integration with Safari itself. It's much better on Chrome until you turn off Apple's password thing in Safari.
It works great to have both enabled on iPhone/iPad however. No idea why they can't fix the overlapping fields in Safari.
Not sure about Android but, for iOS users, it makes no sense trusting open source software. So, even if you choose strongbox or keepassium as they’re open source you’re still trusting some dude as you have no option to verify that the iOS build is the same as the build on github.
This is why I prefer to give my password to a company like Bitwarden and 1Password. At least, they have less incentive to be malicious than random dude on the store.
- A random dude behind an LLC is still a random dude — but now with limited liability :)
- There is a fake "KeePass" app in the AppStore. It is published by a company.
Perhaps time is more important for reputation than being incorporated?
I’d like to add that this also sometimes goes along with either being in denial of having experienced trauma or convincing oneself that the experience “was not that bad after all”.
Been there, done that. To the shock of the people who witnessed said situations, who couldn't believe I dismiss them. I just can't remember being that bad.
Generally we have 2 “traditional” choices for menstruation products: tampons and sanitary pads. Reusable options for both are the menstruation cups (as already mentioned) and washable thus reusable sanitary pads. As far as I know there are also reusable tampons but I don’t know anyone who uses them and they aren’t that widespread.
Menstruation cups are - especially when starting to use them - a bit messy. One has to empty them when they are full and ideally you should at least rinse it after every use. This is a bit uncomfortable and bloody in public bathrooms. Secondly, finding the correct size can be quite tricky especially since the cups are a bit more pricey. Thirdly, when a woman gets an IUD doctors generally recommend against using cups in the first few weeks/ months after insertion. And lastly, they’re simply not comfortable to wear for everyone.
Reusable sanitary pads are a bit different but in my experience don’t replace the traditional pads. Particularly during heavy flow days those simply don’t have the capacity to “catch everything”. Further, if you have to change the pad in public you will have to carry around the used one.
So yes, I agree with you, there are simpler ways to start taking care of one’s rubbish production :)
That reminds me when I was still in high school and got to school by bus.
I was around 16 and used to carry a binder with my full name on its back in my hand because it was a bit too large for my backpack.
One day, I got a letter by a guy whose name I didn’t know. He saw me on the bus and thought I was cute, so he decided to look me up and somehow found out my current address. He couldn’t have used the phone boom because my family wasn’t listed, so he must’ve googled me. Luckily, the guy didn’t have any bad intentions but it was very scary nevertheless.
Yes, it was essentially a love letter ending with “please call me“.
I actually did text him - since he included his phone number and I wanted to know who he was - but I “ghosted“ him after some months when he kept asking me to come to his home (he was twentysomething so several years older than me).
Afterward, I received one more postcard from him telling me how much he misses me and how he wished I was there with him (he was travelling at that time) but then it stopped.
Wow, that's very weird and very inappropriate of him, hopefully he got in trouble / didn't do that to anyone else. I'd be very anxious if someone had my home address and was harassing me, I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
Actually, I thought you don’t even need unbounded memory because it’s proven that the register machine [0] with limited memory is still Turing complete.
Abstract register machines are normally considered to have infinite memory - because even though the number of registers can be bounded, their size is often not. Unlike the fixed-width registers of a real CPU, abstract registers are typically capable of storing any positive integer.
I’m aware and that’s how they are usually introduced. However, there’s also the model of such that have a further restricted set of instructions and only have limited memory.
Could you please give a reference for such a model, and the proof that it's Turing complete? I don't see it described on the Wikipedia page, which explicitly states that registers are unbounded.
I can’t answer your question but maybe you’ll find this paper interesting [0].
TLDR: social bots are highly responsible for spreading misinformation - and for such also conspiracy theories. By tagging people with a lot of followers and tweeting the information multiple times they attempt to make it go viral. Keep in mind that this paper concerns the 2016 elections.
That’s the thing with media portraying violence (and I’m saying this without judgement) it is always glorifying violence (“gewaltverherrlichend” in German) since one doesn’t experience the violence itself.
Even if (war) video games were to be made “gorier”, bloodier, more brutal one still doesn’t experience losing someone, re-building a life in a country that has been bombed to ruins, or dealing with the aftermath such as physical wounds or mental trauma.
As someone who started learning Rust a few days ago I find its compiler errors incredibly helpful!
I don’t quite understand the author‘s complaint either - the error message in the example (like most others) does state quite precisely what went wrong and how to fix it (By default, variables in Rust are immutable. To fix this error, add the keyword
`mut` after the keyword `let` when declaring the variable.).
Default mutability like practically every large language? I’ll admit, both have their uses, but if you’re striving for less runtime errors, default immutability makes more sense.
