  • Right. There's so much we do automatically, behaviours we've picked up from our culture, or are condoned by our culture, that we don't realise are discriminating.

  • In the UK recently there was a ruling about the definition of "woman" as it relates to trans women. But no definition of "man". Why!

    I think that's also largely because it's women who feel vulnerable with men in their 'intimate'/'private' places like bathrooms or sleeping spaces - not so much for men. So questions like, "will the prison rules make this person share a room with me on the basis of their self-identification as a woman" are more of a concern for women than for men.

    And of course efforts aimed at elevating women in e.g. STEM. If you have a women's tech group, or a women's gaming group, giving special help to women because their gender puts them at a disadvantage, do you, should you, must you, include trans women? That's going to come up about women not about men. Men's groups of these days tend to be much less relevant.

    I agree the ruling should have considered both genders equally though. Actually, does it not? Or was it just the discussion, not the actual ruling, that was all women-focused not men?

  • Now as a man I struggle to notice when I'm getting special treatment. Even with my prior experience.

    Thank you for sharing this. I'm usually in communities where - as far as I know - people treat women equally. (Or in different culture communities, so that's a whole different area.) So I tend not to notice if there's special treatment for men. This will remind me to be more aware.

    If you were to combine all humans on earth into a titan, how big would that titan be?

  • You might use this what-if as a starter.

    At the start of the scenario, the entire Earth’s population has been magically transported together into one place.

    This crowd takes up an area the size of Rhode Island.

  • Just make sure you make a backup from your syncthing clones, so an accidental delete/mess-up on one machine doesn't wipe out every copy!

  • Luckily, not if you actually read the article. The headline is misleading. "Emotional advertising" is a marketing gimmick term by LG for guessing your personality from the shows you watch.

  • This is actually about analysing the shows you watch, so it's invasive, but not insidious in the way, say, the screenshots of hdmi content is.

  • Good idea, though, this isn't actually about cameras watching you as the title looks like.

  • I think if it comes to it they just flee, drowsily, with full bellies of honey - so they've got energy to fly and something left over to start the new hive.

  • However, what I've heard from a beekeeper is that the smoke triggers a flight response in them (from fire) so they consume honey ready to flee, and that's actual what makes them docile/drowsy.
