This question is social/political, and meant to trigger a nice debate on the negatives of imbalanced infinite progressivism we seem to be heading in social and technological spheres, ignoring science, practicality and reason....
They’re opposite. One is about everyone trying to get larger pieces of pie. The pie is only so big though, so it means people miss out, and it only ends when one person has the entire pie to themselves.
“Progressivism” is about ensuring everyone gets as close to the same amount of pie as possible. Once everyone has equal access to the pie, there’s nothing more be done.
It should be pretty clear why one is more sustainable than the other
Flew in to university without ever learning how to organise my time. Smashed every exam university put in front of me. Failed every form of written assessment that required time management and planning, instead of just knowing the answers. Even after they put me on academic probation and I understood how serious it was, I couldn’t fix it, because I didn’t know I had ADHD at the time, and had never learned the organisational skills required, because I’d never needed them to succeed academically before.
My workplace has a bike storage room, change rooms, showers, irons and lockers, so the problems you’re describing as impractical are quite practical for me.
It won’t be the norm for workplaces for a long time, but my city also has semi public spaces that offer the same in the CBD. Basically, for a subsidised monthly fee, you have access to the facilities I described above, in a dedicated bike storage space. And that could easily become normalised
Today, I set up my new Birdnet-Pi,a raspberry Pi, running an app that detects and identifies birds by their calls. This is my first half day of recording birds....
I only set it up today, so it hasn’t even been 24 hours yet, but 24/7 is the plan!
We haven’t bothered with water proofing as it’s set up on the back deck of my house, which is under a roof. We do have a plastic case for the Pi though, just to protect it from incidental environmental issues, but it’s by no means water sealed.
Just a re-purposed desktop USB mic at the moment. But I’ve been told that it works fine with the cheapest crappiest USB mics you can find, so I’ve ordered a couple of those, and will take the desktop mic back inside once I’ve got them setup
To OP, I’d have thought better mikes would allow identification of quieter calls, and be better at avoiding misidentifying non-bird noise, so might still have value.
I’ll get back to you when I’ve got enough data to compare a cheap mic with a good mic
I know this is kind of random. I’ve got a black necklace with a long round pendant on it, and I think I look better topless when I wear it. I’m not sure why.
Among some friends I seem to be the odd one out who doesn’t like heat and the sun. To me an overcast fall day, 10C is perfect. Rain is welcome if it does not overstay its welcome.
I’m growing more and more impressed with its capabilities the more I use it! Wrapping my head around its approach to masking, and its “scene referred pipeline” took some time, but now that I’m getting the hang of it, I think I can say I genuinely prefer it to Lightroom....
It was my American Literature teacher, that haggard old fuck how I wished I could have been there to see her face when she got fired for striking a student over something petty, I can only imagine it was a lot like the look she gave me when I thanked her for her words but better. She didn’t like my paper over whatever we were...
In order to be able to Further configure my system, I am looking for a fork of my current OS (artix with openRC as init system) in which i am able to compile every package from source in order to Further configure it with make flags. I am currently not using gentoo, and because the packages in its default repos are only updated...
This is kinda the opposite of what you’re asking for, but might address the reason that you’re asking the question?
CachyOS is an Arch based distro, but it precompiles many arch packages (and some AUR packages) in several versions, optimised for either x86_64-v3 or x86_64-v4.
So if your goal is “optimised” rather than “compile yourself” it might be worth looking at
What's the most basic thing you can't do?
Often we say infinite growth (capitalism) is not sustainable and reasonable. Can we also say infinite progressivism is also not sustainable and reasonable?

People who are attracted to male bodies: Do you think necklaces/chains on men are sexy?

What are your ideal temperature and weather conditions?

What kind of jelly do you use for your peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?
I’m going to make the acceptable answers broad so jam, preserves, etc are all acceptable. I’m a fig jam or apple butter man myself.
