Unadjusted pay figures is an interesting one. On the one hand adjusted pay scales makes it really clear whether people are being paid the same for the same work, on the other hand unadjusted could potentially highlight areas for improvement in terms of adjustments for new mothers etc. That's tricky though as if the father works for a different company and can't take time off to look after a new born then the mother will likely have to. Why not release both along with the weightings?

Spain would probably be around that much if my calculations are correct.

I heard it's something like 90% of people lurk, 10% of people comment, 1% of people post. So you need a pretty substantial population just to have enough posts and comments for the lurkers to still hang around.

It's also why it was particularly dumb of Reddit to piss off their 1% and 10%.

Yeah I didn't rate him at all either, and it definitely started off a lot slower, but by the end I was properly into the story of season 2. It's a really shame as like you said season 1 was incredible, they just didn't have the same budget for S2. I would have liked to see more as we would have had a different actor and it never really got finished.

My list:

Too soon:

  • The OA
  • Firefly
  • Caprica (it was just starting to get interesting)
  • Stargate Universe
  • Jericho
  • Altered Carbon

Too long:

  • Game of thrones
  • Dexter
  • Lost
  • Arrested development (they made a huge mistake bringing it back)

Something with enough context to write sensible test cases for a large codebase. It would be great if you could write test cases for a couple of domains, then ask it to write cases for a third domain following the same general style as the first. It would ideally have a conversation about what things to mock/stub and what things to keep.

I personally think 5 years isn't enough time to get to that point with something that works really well. It's tricky enough to get a junior up to speed with doing it sensibly, but cutting down on the time it takes to build a good test suite would mean we Devs can spend a lot more time on features and improvements.

'Lemmy users SLAMS Labour over "ANTISEMETIC and RACIST" comments by Streeting'.

Whack in a load of chat gpt generated crap defining racism and the labour party, then at the end after all the adverts put a screenshot of the post you replied to. Journalism in 2024.

HDR support is supposedly fixed on kde and should be getting fixed in most other distros soon supposedly.

Unity worked for me on pop os after some fiddling and installing of dependencies, but it didn't fully work. There was a bunch of tools (like animation keyframes) which just didn't display correctly for me though. Checking out the source code of one the util did a check to see whether it was running on windows or Mac, then exited if it wasn't either of those. Would be good to run it via proton if possible so we get full support without the Devs needing to write tons of code to support a small percentage of users. That experience is pretty common when running Linux as your main, but the other benefits make up for it.

The materials to make batteries aren't readily available in the quantities needed to add grid scale storage to all countries and replace all global ICE vehicles. Hydrogen is also ideal for countries like Japan where their grid isn't all connected (it's loads of small grids) and can't handle either the increased load from charging vehicles, or transport the energy from productive renewables areas to non productive renewables areas.

Like with most energy tech, we should be investing in it all so we have a diverse mix of solutions.

Yeah there were multiple times when the allies could have pushed Germany over before they started steamrolling. When they remilitarised the Rhineland, as you said when they occupied the Sudetenland, and even when they invaded Poland.

France started pushing into Germany once war was first declared and there was basically nothing in front of them. Most of the tanks etc were in Poland. If they had continued pushing then it might have all ended there. Instead they pulled back to the Maginot line and the rest is history.

Chickens are vaccinated against salmonella (and a bunch of other things) when they are chicks in Europe. It means you don't need to worry about shitting yourself to death, the chickens are slightly happier by not being sick, and your eggs stay fresher for longer.

It would probably add $0.005 per egg, so US producers will claim it's communism if a regulation is brought in to vaccinate chicken, but it would be worth doing.

As others have said, that's basically pop shell. Cosmic will be out of alpha at some point this year, but you don't need to wait for that to get started. I've been using pop os on my personal machine, and Ubuntu gnome with the pop-shell gnome extension for many years and it works great. Pretty much zero config and it is super easy to set up and get started.
