I didn't downvote the other person... but isn't it kind of a disagree button? What are the buttons for, if not to vote up the things you like, down the things you don't, and thus float the "best" to the top?
I guess one can respectfully disagree, given that we're kinda debating philosophy, or one can structurally disagree, and maybe those result in different kinds of voting behaviour.
Yes, but, the scary part is that they don't think they're doing that! They've looked into the Tome of Ambiguous Stories and come out of it with whichever outcomes fit their fancy, but whichever Rorschach Lesson they learn, it carries with it the seal of Word of God.
So they can read the book (or have it read to them), come to a conclusion that vibes right, and then believe they were told that lesson by an infallible, ineffable, authority figure. One who can't refute their claimed charge.
Not a great position to debate from.
I mean, even with the pool, we're laughing at it, but what we're actually talking about is the corrupt bullshit that lead to here. People were already grumpy about the way it was being renovated and who was renovating it before it turned green. It's just kinda funny that even after pulling that bullshit, the outcome was terrible. But the government corruption is the actually story.
Sometimes even worse, which is to collect a raft of data testing one hypothesis, and then realize it all came up empty, and so go looking for any data you can form a new hypothesis from that matches the data you already have.
Hmm, I think all of your examples were examples of the teachers during prep, which is interesting, but not what I would have called "in the classroom". I got the sense the article was talking more about it being in the hands of students, but maybe I'm wrong about that?
You know what's the worst? I read this headline and thought "oh yeah, I forgot they did that..."
What a fucked up timeline.
"May be doing more harm than good" but, honest question, is there evidence it's doing any good in schools? I know I'm probably not going to get a balanced opinion here, but is the bad outweighed by good, or is the bad outweighed by neutral at best?
I've been sad lately, watching the creaky old mice shuffling around my yard, so it's nice that there's something coming down the pipe to help them regain mobility.
No no, those are fife drums
Fair fair, very important. What's also important is that we get our prostate checked, and/or get some mammograms done.
Vaguely, because having 2 or 4 models that are static and always look good is actually a lot easier to design and test than a body that can be lots of sizes and shapes. Like, it's more work to make an outfit 4 times than 1 time, but it's also kinda easy work. Whereas making an outfit that can be any size and shape and still looks right and natural and doesn't clip through itself, etc is harder.
But not impossible, so I agree if your game is going to have sliders anyway, and those sliders are going to allow extreme adjustments and not just "length of torso, circumference of boobs", probably you're going to have to take a lot of that into account anyway.
Even still, though, having a "bunch" of sliders can sometimes still not be enough to get from one body type to another. Like, the fact that you can't start with the male body in most of these games and adjust your way to the female one, or vice versa, means there are properties that would need to be made adjustable that currently aren't, in order to actually get you smoothly from one to the other.
Hello! I've just started using StreetComplete, and I want to make sure I understand the answers before I go through and make a bunch of garbage data.
In this picture, is the kerb a ramp, or flush?
The sidewalk deflects downwards, but it's not a ramp ramp like the example picture.
How about this one?
The kerb itself dips, but the sidewalk on this one looks more flat and does simply run into the road. And then it has the texture, obviously. Is this one different from the last one?
Also, just to check, I marked both of these sidewalks as "concrete". That's correct, right? I wondered about "concrete plate", because they're segmented, but the picture made concrete plate look much more substantial.
My other question was based on the "lit" tag for a bus stop. This bus stop has a street light near it, but there's no light on the bus stop itself. It sounds like that means it is lit? Would a non-lit stop just be one that is fully dark at night, then, with no kind of lighting anywhere near it at all?
This one is further from the street light, but still has line of sight. Lit?
Thanks very much for any help you have!
Hello folks! I have these switches in my bathroom.
The rightmost is the lights, and the middle one is the bathroom fan, and I'd like to replace that middle one with something I could load tasmota on (or some other open source firmware), without replacing the other switch, the sockets, or the faceplate.
I haven't seen any smart switches that have a form factor that would fit through this faceplate, though; they seem to mostly want to be the entire electrical box.
If it weren't for the electrical plugs I could maybe replace this with some kind of 2-gang thing, which isn't really what I want but could be fine, but as it stands I'm not sure what my options here are.
I don't need the new switch to necessarily look like the old one, I just want it to fit in the same box and use the same faceplate. Do you folks have any recommendations?
I think this is also why there's more "criminality" in opressed communities. Why would I work or sacrifice to uphold a system that is unfair to me? If I don't believe in it, if I don't see benefit from it, why should I attach my own ethics to it?
