Gender affirming treatment has an astonishingly high rate of satisfaction. You probably already know this, but I feel like we need to repeat it over and over.
allow me to go meta, but I loved the choice of metaphor
> the mor- root is also present in morning
This just made me realise that in Spanish "maΓ±ana" is both "morning" and "tomorrow"
It's actually way older!! In some form or another, the same concept is found in virtually all indoeuropean languages, and should trace its roots to PIE *seΗ΅Κ°-seb
(my question is about the algorithm in general, not just the load-balanced adjustment from today)
Out of interest: are the user's "past likes" weighted for recency? (To be clear, my instinct is that weighting would be a *bad* thing since it'd risk trapping you in a chamber of yesterday's fad)
Shouldn't need explaining but:
Bosons are clearly boubas: integer spin, happy to get cozy in a shared quantum state.
Fermions are kikis, sharp, half-integer spin, quite particular with their personal space.
Well done, particle physics. π
I personally appreciate that Bose and Fermi particles follow the bouba/kiki effect correctly.
funny how in modern UX the buttons would be "OK" and "proceed anyway", reversing the behaviour of clicking "OK".

Nahed hajjaj @nahed_hajjaj99 Follow Today I didn't do any journalistic work. I left the house to the market to find anything to eat. I found nothing. No one found anything. How do I enter the room of my family, how do i tell my mother, that they have to starve another night tonight? Tell me what should I tell them?

Two tweets by Nicola De Mitri (@_nicolasap), dated Jan 25, 2021, 1:12 PM. Text: "Fraction of the sentences I write β in tweets, chats, emails β that contain a en dash ("β"): β’ before I found a quick way to type it: 78% β’ now that I've found it: 98.4% (on Ubuntu: Shift+AltGr then "--.". Shift+AltGr then "---" for the em dash)"
I'm glad I have a tweet of mine β from almost 2 years before consumer-level LLM chatbots β that proves that I was a prolific user of en dashes back then already.
(Not em dashes, as I'm from this side of the Atlantic)
Hai ragione,non ho centrato il punto.
Me ne scuso!
(Il mio commento comunque voleva essere: non credo che questa storia sia vera. Non so perchΓ© avrebbero un occhio di riguardo, difatti non ci sono stati ancora scandali confermati con europei. La celebrity era un caso di overstaying, a quanto si sa)
*Errata: vari milioni hanno attraversato il confine da quando Γ¨ iniziato Trump 2. Non milioni ogni giorno.
Che si arroghino il diritto di controllare i cellulari Γ¨ un fatto assodato. Che i contenuti di dissenso abbiano portato a rimpatri di europei Γ¨ un po' dubbio.
Detto questo, abbasso i fascisti. Non Γ¨ che mi stiano simpatici: Γ¨ che stanno molto attenti a prendersela con i loro confinanti e non col G7
Ci fu il ricercatore francese la cui storia fu ripresa da un ministro, ma anche lì non si ebbe nessun riscontro.
Nel frattempo, milioni di europei attraversano quel confine ogni giorno, e le storie confermate di rimpatri sono tutte legate a wrong visa / overstaying / precedenti legali.
Ehy, io odio la retorica dei confini chiusi, i raid ICE, le detenzioni dubbie allungate a dismisura sfidando pronunciamenti dei giudici, le deportazioni in paesi a caso.
Ma finora nessuna storia su europei mandati indietro per i contenuti dei loro cellulari Γ¨ stata confermata da qualcuno di serio.
L'unica eccezione che mi viene in mente Γ¨ Tangentopoli.
Ma forse quella non prende l'articolo perchΓ© "sembra" un nome di luogo (come "dopo Norimberga", o "prima di Maastricht").
I like that you exist.
Not related to the point, but that sentence in the manuscript could really have used some proofreading π΅βπ«

RE: typesetting.
Wow.
I'm suddenly so sad that I was in Tokyo last month without knowing about the city's printing museum.

I'm so glad for the @archive.org π₯°
Screenshots in this thread from "Rendiconti. Accademia nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di scienze fisiche, matematiche e naturali".

To think of how modern mathematical notation (sums, integrals, differentials, subscripts/superscipts, roots, trig, ...) had already been long-established β and typesettable! β by the time this 1895 bulletin was printed.
And look so similar to lecture notes from the computer era.
Old text, in Italian. "Botanica. β Origine e differenziazione degli elementi vascolari primari nella radice delle Monocotiledoni. Nota I del Socio R. Pirotta. Matematica. β Sugli spazi plurisecanti di una semplice infinitΓ razionale di spazi. Nota di Francesco Severi, presentata dal Socio Segre. Queste due Note saranno pubblicate nel prossimo fascicolo." It translates to: "Botany. β Origin and differentiation of primary vascular elements in the root of Monocotyledons. Note I by Member R. Pirotta. Mathematics. β On plurisecant spaces of a simple rational infinity of spaces. Note by Francesco Severi, presented by Member Segre. These two Notes will be published in the next issue."
Literal "preprints", I believe to prove and set a date for a discovery?
Title, author, endorser. "These articles will be published in the next issue".
Old text in Italian: "Noi abbiamo perΓ² pensato che alla soluzione del problema si poteva forse arrivare determinando le grandezze molecolari di sostanze racemiche, sciogliendole in un solvente in presenza di un forte eccesso di uno dei loro componenti. All'applicazione di questo metodo molte e varie difficoltΓ si oppongono, e prima di tutto la non grandissima precisione che si puΓ² raggiungere coi comuni apparecchi crioscopici." which translates to "However, we thought that the solution to the problem could perhaps be reached by determining the molecular sizes of racemic substances, dissolving them in a solvent in the presence of a strong excess of one of their components. Many and various difficulties oppose the application of this method, and first of all the not very great precision that can be achieved with common cryoscopic apparatus."
"Herein, we present an alternative framework..." but in 1902's Italian.
"Noi abbiamo perΓ² pensato che alla soluzione del problema si poteva forse arrivare..." ("We thought, however, that the solution to the problem could perhaps be reached...")
We'd urge people not to panic - there will be lots of commentary coming out quickly that is likely to deliberately overstate the impact that this decision is going to have on all trans people's lives. We'll say more as soon as we're able to. Please look out for yourselves and each other today ππ³οΈββ§οΈ
