Source: a friend of mine personally telling me what happened the last time he was in mainland China.

Friends of mine who have moved away from China. One of them had police at their door in China for social media posts that were friendly to Uyghurs (not even anything to do with the genocide, just general friendliness as a “we’re all Chinese” kind of message). Being taken to police stations for even slightly questioning the state narrative is terrifying.

Our restrictions were basically lifted after four weeks in 2020 because that was enough to eliminate the virus. I think going a bit authoritarian with the lockdown maximised our freedom in the long run that year.

We had a four week (incredibly strict) lockdown in 2020 and then life returned to normal because we eliminated the virus. In late 2021 the delta variant ruined all that and the government attempted a half-assed lockdown which didn’t do much and that’s where a lot of the anger came from.

That could be a malita filter, which has a flat bottom.

mmm delicious 😋

What’s wrong with a paper filter for a pour over?

It uses other signals too, like what other sites you’ve visited with that checkbox on it, what CloudFlare has seen your IP address doing in the past, etc.

The google one is able to see if you’re logged into a google account and take that into account.

There’s even a new variant of the Google captcha that is invisible and doesn’t even bother to show a checkbox.

It’s different in different markets. In Australia and New Zealand it’s usually a reasonably well made medium-dark blend.

You’ll get much better at any dedicated café, but it’s also miles better than sbux (who don’t even use real espresso machines).

I enjoy OpenMW and I’m happy to host if you want, although my instance is basically just me and a few friends right now.

I’ve used a number of different Linux distros (including Debian) on laptops over the years. Although most recently my XPS 15 was running Arch.

It’s falsifying business records, which becomes a felony when combined with it being a campaign finance violation.

Not as strong of a case as the docs one but it is a crime.

Yep!

Gotta get those five stars

That’s a nice rice!

How are you finding awesomewm? I’ve just been on i3 since forever but I’m always interested to hear about other WMs

I think they’re lawful evil, more devils than demons.

Hi, I’ve been doing TypeScript in my day-job and hobbies for six and a bit years now. I would not write JS in any other way.

TS is also a superset of JS so all JS is valid (unless you turn on strict mode). So there is no productivity loss/learning curve unless you want there to be.

In fact, a lot of people who think they’re not using typescript are using it because their editors use typescript definitions for autocomplete and JSDoc type signatures are powered by typescript.

I use Alpine Linux quite a bit, which is a Linux distro that doesn’t use the GNU coreutils or glibc.

Also even giving GNU such a high level in the name on a distro like Arch makes little sense imo because other components like systemd are arguably much more important than one of many libc libraries you can optionally use and a bunch of coreutils you can also optionally use.

In my experience I haven’t had an issue because usually the refactorings are small. If they’re not I just hop on a call with the person who wrote the MR and ask them to walk me through it.

In theory I’d like to have time to dedicate solely to code health, but that’s not quite the situation in basically any team I’ve been in.

You should refactor as needed as you go because refactoring cases are never gonna be prioritised.
