That’s the last three words of the article. The author didn’t miss the connection either.

I always wonder when people repeat something from the article or ask a question that’s answered in the article: did you not read it or did you just want to start a discussion about this connection and are somehow constrained in the number of words you can write per day?

Idk, I think there’s enough internet funnies that don’t contain slurs

Downvote OP for posting misogynist shit and not the person pointing out out (on request, no less)

Testing superscript syntax: 10^-9

10^-9^

I usually write “POSIXy shell” but I thought that was clear from context this time.

The problem is that exit statuses !=0 aren’t treated as error by default (with a way to turn that off for individual expressions). Instead you have to set multiple settings and avoid certain constructs in bash/ZSH/…

Everything that works like a modern programming language by default is fine of course

Yeah, and that’s just one of many many things to consider.

As a long time former ZSH user, I’ll definitely include ZSH in shell languages to avoid for scripting.

The problem is simply the number of rules and incantations to slavishly include everywhere to make your script bail on error. set -e is not enough by far.

Python with plumbum or nushell are definitely better.

Oh you sweet summer child.

If you don’t use pipes or command substitutions, set -e gets you a fair part of the way there.

If you’re interested, I can look up the rest of the arcane incantations necessary.

Shell scripts were a mistake. The weirdness you have to remember to safely stop executing when something fails is mind-boggling.

I’m so glad nushell exists and doesn’t need any configuring to just do the reasonable thing and stop executing when something fails.

Why?

OK Google set a reminder 10 years from now to remind that gal/guy of ralph

I agree with you here. As soon as you change something, that should be respected but as long as you use the default theme/wallpaper/… that could just as well mean that you prefer tracking the default or don’t care at all.

Now bringing back the explicitly disabled search bar really is atrocious

Twitter (now “X”)

But you did insult. You asserted that living in a city isn’t a voluntary choice, therefore taking agency away from people who choose to live in a city.

You’re both pivoting (now you’re suddenly talking about production) and wrong. Cities produce cross pollination between minds. Art, science, philosophy. Cities are where the ideas for photovoltaics were seeded and developed. Cities are where most music genres emerged.

We live in a world where currently, the most popular alternative to city living is being a narrow-minded redneck who holds their gas guzzler as the ultimate expression of freedom. Anarchist communes in the countryside might be part of the solution, but I bet you that what’s going on in and around the city will also play a vital role.

I’m not disagreeing with your core message: monogamy isn’t “older” than polygamy. But neither is it the other way around: We probably did both since very long ago.

The notion that there’s a human “tech tree” of civilization is wrong. E.g. Agriculture doesn’t “follow” hunting and gathering, and neither does centralized power (like in a state) “follow” agriculture. Humans have been experimenting with social structures since basically the beginning.

So within the last tens of millenia, there were probably societies that were monogamous, some that were polygamous, and some that rotated or did both, and of these some depending on some social stratification and some depending on personal preference.

Seems like you grew up in a very puritanical place.

Nudity is objectively neutral.

What an asinine take. I choose to live in a city because I can meet many different friends in many different interesting spots, where we can e.g. eat excellent iterations of different cuisines.

All without sitting my ass in a car and driving for an hour to meet a single couple that lives in some other hamlet. Or having to plan the exact amount of drinks and food to consume before the evening starts. And I can do that multiple times per week if I please.

You like living in the countryside, I get it. Don’t pretend that’s somehow objectively better lol

Traditional relationship models are so weird.

Making up all these different definitions of “cheating” vs “emotional cheating” and distinguishing them from other instances of hurtfully not honoring agreements.

It’s just that: people have an agreement with each other and one of them expressed that it’s very important for them emotionally for the other to honor it. Then the other didn’t. That expectedly hurts.

Why is there a special word when the agreement is about sex?

Yeah, if all those complainers want something more modular, they’re free to push for protocols that allow to leverage existing components while also allowing for them to come from multiple vendors.

I hope things like this will take off: https://cooltech.zone/tangara/
