bedrooms,

I checked the news in my country and they say it's illegal here on the ground that the supreme court ruled "the toxicity is public knowledge."

Stupidity...

IANAL, but I dare guess judges do need beliefs. In the beginning, people thought Black people were not humans, and so equality of people in constitution did not apply. I might be factually wrong on this, but let's assume it. To overcome this, some judges had to abandon their racism and understand black people are people.

And while some areas of human issues can be discussed scientifically, like racism being completely wrong, some are difficult.

And if science can't overcome an unjust law today, judges have to listen to their heart and do the right thing. Probably the left thing these days, though...

bedrooms,

I noticed. What I wanted to say was it can become a battle between the correct belief and the wrong belief. Especially if the law itself is interpreted wrongly and scientific evidence is difficult to acquire (which sometimes is).

bedrooms,

Maybe even that depends on the judges.

bedrooms,

Sometimes I wonder if POTUS could declare national emergency due to an unhinged SCOTUS.

bedrooms,

Nah, that's rather what right wingers do.

I'm from Japan. They don't even have judges as corrupt as SCOTUS and still don't allow same sex marriage because the ruling party is conservative. Well, the court ruled it's unconstitutional, but we learned that a law in this country can stay unconstitutional if the government ignores the situation. And apparently 90% of the people (at least on the internet) support that because they are conservative.

Makes me realize how broken my country is. It doesn't even count as corruption because it's lawful. Fucking hell...

bedrooms,

Agreed.

bedrooms,

What an excellent scheme to keep talents away from entering the red states for a job.

bedrooms,

Yes, the Socratic method

bedrooms,

You almost had me

bedrooms,

Singin' we will we will rock you!

bedrooms,

No idea why this is controversial. As a compsci researcher I have always been exploited for their spreadsheets that only satisfy government officials and not the society.

bedrooms,

The hearing, entitled "The U.S. Technology Fueling Russia's War in Ukraine: How and Why,"

I sometimes think US politicians make them sound like high schoolers yet to receive higher education.

Bundestag votes against Taurus missiles for Ukraine, supports sending 'necessary long-range missiles' (kyivindependent.com)

The German parliament held two votes on providing long-range weapons to Ukraine on Feb. 22, first rejecting a motion explicitly mentioning Taurus missiles, followed by supporting a motion calling for Germany to send additional long-range weapons.

bedrooms,

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is reportedly against sending Taurus missiles to Kyiv because he fears the move will draw Germany into the war.

They're still arguing that nonsense... Putin won't care about anything. If Germany doesn't supply enough weapons, they'll be dragged into the war in a worse way.

I'm looking for a way to create webpages without HTML, any tips?

Hello! I’ll try to explain what I’m looking for: I sometimes have to write simple web pages (not just text, also buttons and video players and so on), but I really really hate writing html code. What I’m used to is QML, which I like a lot, because of the ease of placing objects exactly where I need using the anchors and...

bedrooms,

Exactly what I feel about HTML after using QML.

Although there are already comments with good libs, you could also look into services like Weebly.

bedrooms,

an engineering manager said during an interview, “OK, we’re going to build a To Do List app right now,” a process that might normally take weeks.

Tbf you can do that in one day with ChatGPT, although it requires some generic software engineering skills. But that's the point.

Even if you don't complete the task, the process of coding can prove your skill level in a positive way.

bedrooms,

Also, they often don't read more than a few lines. I applied as a dev for a company which I had many friends inside. They all knew my skills. The problem was the high-level managers because they didn't read the memo (and didn't even read my CV), assumed I can't do engineering because I was an academic at the time.

bedrooms,

I mean, if you argue that way during the interview I'd pass... Nobody thinks you're asked to do all that in a one-day interview.

bedrooms,

It's how this publisher works. They make it insanely difficult for reviewers to reject a submission.

bedrooms, (edited )

The biggest problem with Frontiers for me is that there are some handy survey articles that are cited like 500 times. It seems that Interdisciplinary surveys are hard to publish in a traditional journal, and as a result 500 articles cited this handy overview article for readers who would need an overview.

The article I checked was in a reasonable quality, and it's a shame I can't cite it just because it's in Frontiers.

bedrooms,

Actually, figures should be checked during the reviewing process. It's not an excuse.

bedrooms,

No, "should be" as in, it must be reviewed but can be skipped if there's a concern like revealing the author identity in a double-blind process.

bedrooms,

Worried House Republicans are looking to Johnson for plans for keeping their majority after record-low productivity for this Congress. Instead, he is offering thoughts and prayers.

The one time a Republican politician sent serious thoughts and prayers lmao
