I think it's ironic this is posted here on Lemmy, which is what it is today mainly thanks to users of another service freaking out over how they will manage without their API access to bullshit aggregated content mixed with astroturfing.

Why this hasn't been done is pretty baffling to me.

Because the blockchain needs an incentive. Who is going to be taking part in the blockchain if there is nothing in it for them? That's why these tokens are often tied to crypto currencies, as mining is the incentive.

Well, the Union of South Africa were participants in the war against Germany, so that's still a bit weird. Don't know about the affiliation of the magazine in question, but the support for joining the allies wasn't clear cut, but only a narrow majority among the ruling white class.

Meh, where I live police are paid a little bit over the median wage, and they have to get a bachelor's degree (~3 years) in law enforcement before they can work as a police.

Apotti oli yksi artikkelin esimerkkijärjestelmä. En olis sekunttiakaan yllättyny, jos sen ympäriltä paljastuu ihan hervoton korruptiohimmeli. Siitä on tullu jo aika erikoisia kommentteja.

Juuri tämä korruptio on se osa jota ei ihan kauheasti tuoda ilmi. Korruptio kun on melkein maan tapa mitä tulee julkisiin hankintoihin, mutta jostain syystä selkeästi huono valinta toimittajaksi tai jopa itse toteutukseksi tuodaan esiin digihankinnoissa, mutta ei muissa hankinnoissa.

Historiasta löytyy kyllä esimerkkejä surkeista analoogisista hankinnoista, joista kärsitään yhä. Esimerkkinä Helsingin metro, joka päätettiin jostain syystä kaivaa maapallon ytimen syvyyteen eikä siihen ns. katutason alle, mikä tekee laajentamisesta työlästä ja kallista. Ja kun selvitellään että miksi se syvämetro nyt sitten silloin taannoin valittiin, niin korruptiohan se sielläkin hääräsi.

The first point is a non issue. If we just stop for a second and think about it, the calorie output of the animals has to be less than the calorie input. Otherwise they would generate energy out of thin air. The bigger thing is that they are also homeothermic animals, which means that majority of the input calories are used to regulate body heat and not to generate output calories (aka meat). From calorie persective, going through homeothermic animals is pure waste of energy.

What really started the whole "fi-sci" (fiction-science) on Discovery was Mythbusters. I know many people don't want to hear it as they loved the show, but it was often very unscientific, especially their methods and the hasty and often false conclusions they made from their scientifically invalid tests.

Itse ajattelin hyvää hyvyyttäni käyttää jotakin näistä isommista palvelimista, ihan hyvin näyttää toimivan.

It's interesting debate to observe from my perspective as my native tongue has no different pronunciations for letters, they are always the same regardless of their placement in words. G is always pronounced the same, and so is P. (Spoiler: it's hard G and hard P).

This brought another thing in my mind about soft G. Let's take for example Gin, which is with soft G I believe (it's hard G here because there is only hard G). Then there is the acronym GT for Gin & Tonic. The question is, in English language countries, is the acronym pronounced jay-T instead of gee-T?

It was utter horse crap when it released. The military green Steam was among the worst pieces of software ever conceived. So they worked a lot to make it as good as it is today.

People are smart enough to understand the difference between someone copying for personal use and a billion dollar corporation copying to generate millions while laying off all the creative people. The latter is what these non-open-source AI companies are enabling - for profit too.

Voin kuvitella kuinka toimittaja on toimituksessa hykerrellyt kun on päässyt otsikkoa väsäämään. :)

Why the police and prosecution and not the jury? It's their duty to determine guilt, isn't it?

Niin no, meidän perustuslakiin kirjatut oikeudetkin toimii samalla tavoin. Jopa ihmisten yhdenvertaisuudesta lain edessä sallitaan joustaa "hyväksyttävällä perusteella", mitä toki ei määritellä missään.

Jotenkin hassua että vuosikymmen taaksepäin tämä ukko kolkutteli henkilövaaleissa (presidentinvaalit 2012) kakkoskierroksen ovia puolella miljoonalla äänellä, mutta on nykyään lähinnä yksinomaan surullinen ilmestys aikalailla kaikkien mielestä.

Now they want to remove all protections against firing people. People should be fireable without giving any reason.

Why do people do this? Go to the internet and spread lies, that is.

Hienoa ettei antanut vihapostin lannistaa itseään!

Tuli kuitenkin vääjäämättä mieleen että tekisikö Yleisradio samanlaista juttua 60-vuotiaasta äijästä, joka fanittaisi vaikka JPop-idoleita. Itsestäni tuntuu että ei, vaan silloin meidän yhteiskunnan "virallinen mielipide" olisi vihaajien puolella.

Milläköhän perusteilla tämä esitys sopii suomalaisten oikeistopuolueiden ajamaan politiikkaan niin että tämä on ihan märkä uni? Tuntuu ennemmin siltä että kyseessä on nykyisen oikeistohallituksen "märkä uni" samalla tavoin kuin pohjoiskorean talousjärjestelmä oli edellisen vasemmistohallituksen "märkä uni" - omasta päästä keksittyjen olkiukkojen unissa.

Varmasti kyllä löytyy yksittäisiä poliitikkoja puolueesta kuin puolueesta joka haaveilee jostain massavalvonnasta lasten etujen takia tms. Mutta itse en todellakaan näe että valvontayhteiskunta olisi suomessa erityinen oikeisto-vasemmisto kysymys, se vaikuttaa tuontitavaralta jossa ulkomaiden poliittisia keskusteluniaheita yritetään survoa suomen muottiin.

There are people who don't respect the judgement or voice of people who have abortions, or provide them. The former probably ask about the latter "why should we allow them to vote" too. That just emphasizes the fact that personal feelings are not good enough reason to limit a right. The right to vote should be the basis. As a right it needs no justification, on the contrary, any limitations to it are the ones that need to be justified. And justified better than "I don't respect this and that".
