That there can be differing viewpoints on this matter is demonstrative that sex as well as gender is a social construct: the categorization and distinguishing characteristics of sex are normative. It's deeply ironic that the people complaining about "gender ideology" are in fact its purveyors.
But chainmail was a thing, so how did they manufacture it without knitting? Maybe “knitting” is just a way of describing this, while the knitting you're thinking of is specifically knitting involving textiles.
Chainmail is made from individual rings. Romans made it from punched out metal rings alternating with rings made of wire and then ends of those rings made out of wire together. Not really too much riveting you can do with textiles. Well maybe plastics, but they did not have plastics.
That's only during runtime. Simply reading code can be annoyingly difficult without hard references. Especially when the code is coming from a gem.
Many times LSP's can't figure out where the code is coming from if it's a few layers deep. Then you're stuck with the time consuming method of running the code and doing something like what you're describing above just to read it.
As someone who has no idea how Ruby works, how does Emacs show where any function is defined, right down to line number? Emacs has a big mudball of single namespace too
> Even worse, there are programmers who have only had a high-school education and just seem to ''be good at it''. These scenarios and how they really do play out in real life have detailed at length.
This is classist at best and personally offensive.
Neat. I visited Valdez, Alaska lately and a friend was pointing out the tugs there. They seemed somewhat larger than other tugs I've seen. A data sheet says they have about 4x the horsepower of Heidi Brusco, coming from a pair of CAT C280-16 engines. I'm not clever enough to figure out how those are started. Cool boats are cool
It's as old now as the first Jazz concert at Carnegie hall was to it. Fred Astaire's "Nice Work if You Can Get It" was #24 on the charts that year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1938_in_music
Crap. I used to think being alive was better than being dead. But come to think of it, the only ones complaining are the ones who are still alive. I’m conflicted now.
David McBride and Richard Boyle. Both tried the official channels then whistleblower channels. Both made some mistakes but all in the public interest. Aussie gov treated them shamefully.
Witness K and Bernard Collaery came to mind when I was writing it. They blew the whistle on illegal espionage used to pillage the resources of our tiny neighbour, and the government threw the book at them. Absolutely shameful.
I understand that Wikileaks is controversial but I don't think there is any dispute that he has acted in the role of whistleblower to some extent. But that's not really the point I'm trying to make, so I've removed the reference.
I think I'd argue for a sui generis classification, which does partake somewhat of the whistleblower, but it seems like calling Napoleon a general. He was certainly that, at times. Apologies for the nit-picking in any case.
Another example would be David McBride who was in the Australian military and blew the whistle on war crimes. He recently got sentenced to jail while actual exposed war criminals are free.
