Interesting fact: in… 2010-ish a Vatican historian priest released a book where he explained that Jesus was a jokester. A lot of his sermons in the Bible were haha funny for the people at the time.

Do you know what we call a dude traveling from city to city with an entourage making people laugh? :)

A comedian.

And then they either water down the equity you have or get aquihired or some other bullshit.

I wish you all the luck, but recent trends are that unless you’re the founding engineer or close friend of the CEO, then IF the startup makes it (is bought) you’ll be left on ice.

This is a French journal about fear in women and how it affects their mobility. Whenever someone says

the risk of a fragile, shallow, unhinged, emotionally unstable man going berserk and MURDERING her.

it pops in my mind. The data they gathered suggests that women fear of violence is unrelated to actual rates of said violence happening, but is correlated to past smaller transgressions (“anticipated violence”). Long story short, if you were ever catcalled, or given a [clumsy] compliment, you’re likely to imagine (“anticipate”) out-of-proportion violence in multiple contexts.

The actual crime rate and crime gender proportion (in the US) - https://counciloncj.org/womens-justice-by-the-numbers/ - violence victims rate is 60-70% down since 1984 and since 2009 men and women are as likely to be the victim [before that men were most likely]; and the number of women perpetrators grown up. Oh, and the homicide rate by spouse is also closing the gap (although some studies suggest that the increase in women killing their husbands should be attributed to them not being dismissed as potential perpetrators by the police force)

I’m not dismissing your feelings OP, and your strategy seems very prudent, but I want to add to this discussion that it’s much much safer than you or the social media will try to paint, despite the fear you feel.

And that you’re not more likely to be a victim of a violent crime than a man (https://counciloncj.org/womens-justice-by-the-numbers/).

The very first internet connection occurred on 30 October 1969

No. Earliest cross node connection was early 1969: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPL_network

This is the book be Vincent Cerf where he explains that ARPANET isn’t the Internet. Good to know that the people who created the Internet are wrong.

I get it. You were taught in school that US government created the internet. It’s a good explanation to the 4th grader. It’s also simplistic and incorrect, but that’s how elementary schools teach. It’s like that with a lot of knowledge, it becomes more nuanced the more you know about it.

That is an interesting point of view. Very USA exceptional. It’s also dumbed down a lot. ARPANET is a computer network, but it’s not internet, nor it was the first. It kickstarted popularity of computer networks in the USA and provided first FTP and (I think) first remote login.

Popularity of computer networks in USA definitely was a formative quality over the 20 years of international development of the Internet.

But saying ARPANET was the internet is like saying gramophone is Netflix.

First computer network to send packets to another computer was British NPL network. Then US government founded ARPANET, built upon that. Except that DARPA besides having own researchers outsourced to Stanford, BBN and University College of London (“How the Internet Came to Be”, quoting I forgot whom from DARPA).

Then French Cyclades computer network built upon ARPANET and proposed that multiple networks should be able to communicate with each other.

Then USA non-profit IEEE looked at all that proposed TCP/IP for cross-network communication, and that is the thing that (after many iterations over a decade) led to the Internet not being separate networks like AOL or Computerverse or whatever.

Now we’re getting closer to the internet and it’s time for https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_data_network

First was Spain with RETD , then France, then USA with Telenet. Then Canada. Then in 1978 we started connecting those separate networks. I think the first properly working project was https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Packet_Switched_Service between British post office and USA post office.

On those public data networks the Internet’s physical layer was built.

In USA U.S. National Science Foundation was founding more and more computer networks, including CSNET. That’s still not internet. It’s 1980 and it will take a decade of new inventions (Ethernet, LAN, DNS) and improvements & implementations (like to TCP/IP) before we will get the internet.

Here’s a nifty source for that decade, because I spent 50 minutes writing this post before I noticed I’m arguing with a guy over the internet about the internet.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet (there is a nice timeline list there).

It is so complicated that you’re both correct and incorrect. US government added to it, yes. I’d argue the fundamental work was independent researchers from multiple countries (UK, USA, France). I’d argue the critical infrastructure was multiple non-profits.

Also the question is “what exactly is the beginning of the internet”. Is it usenet? Telnet? Arpanet?

Same document, section about Shareholders.

There’s no such thing. There COULD be something like shareholders voting on smthing and those votes are binding, but the agenda is declared by the company and can be only shiet like dividends rate, certain acquisitions, etc. Not the company strategy itself.

Technically they don’t - it’s a lie told often by CEO. But its a lie. https://law.stanford.edu/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Fiduciary-Duties-of-the-Board-of-Directors.pdf

What is wrong with you?

The fuck is that.

Wild cats sometimes form colonies. Those structures do have matriarchs. There is dominance in the groups.

Yeah… No

I’m not sure what you disagree with? Me blocking the community to not see it on my page as per what previous commenter suggest? Or that I should’ve participated without reading the rules like you did?

I’m also not sure why are you calling people whiny dweebs or whom.

Just block the community or ask to be banned

Yup, that’s what I did. It leaves… bad taste in my mouth when it goes to my main page, the topic is interesting, I go to read it, and then I see someone silencing the participants with a very smug “You’re not a woman, so please kindly fuck off from here, flowers and smiles”.

empty cities

Not so empty anymore, and calling them empty was bullshit.

Roberta Cohen’s organisation reported, that that’s what some of the survivors/escapee’s from NK reported.

She’s an ancient woman who has been going around the world convincing Western (mostly USian) people to help others (including when the USA made them refugees).

Just by the virtue of her trying to help people I believe her.

You on the other hand are a random nobody in the internet acting like someone poisoned by the USian propaganda (but with an opposite vector).

Did you know that most people during WW2 believed Nazi death camps are Allies propaganda?

Are you guys having dementia or something? It’s 4 forks on a pink background. If your brain needed time to process it, god there’s something wrong with it.

imagine they controlled

I’ve read the study. They didn’t. N=163, all anonymous. In the study they played Halo 3, recorded voice over and measured the reactions (if any), and then correlated the few reactions they got with skill level.

Nothing is known about participants. The gamers gender was determined based on institute of my ass, out of 163 games there were no responses in almost half, and in the Introduction they admit what they’ll manipulate their result to prove thesis.

Oh, and the data collected contains also female negative responses, they were removed from further processing because women good men bad.

Interestingly the female-negative raw data (examples picked by study authors in appendix 2)

“Yeah, stop stealing my kills, you little piece of shit.”

“Shut up, you removed. She’s a removed though.”

“Should’ve made me a sandwich, removed.

Vs male-negative:

“Freaking removed.”

“I liked your lag trick, jackass.”

“You suck dick.”

Could be my bias, but male-negative from data set sounds significantly less sexists than female-negative. Female negative more often is aggression related to gender, male negative is less personal.

You were going down few kilos. That’s easy. The challenge is to lose 40kg and keep it that way. It’s not a short journey, it’s multiple Lords of The Rings travelling to a volcano and back (from that book we know though that walking a few hundred miles does not make a hobbit skinny).

Yes. And NASA spelled something (forgot the details) is SATAN according to Youtube Shorts.
