  • Teaching

  • Then you all get to hate that one person who already read a 15 year old textbook they found in the trash instead of me, who can't teach as well as literal garbage!

  • Do you check what community you're about to participate in before participating?

  • Why even have communities if nobody is going to respect the individual culture and purpose of them?

  • Is there a process by which courts check access logs of a server to verify the data hasn't been tampered with?

  • Expanding on some of the other answers...

    A court in the US or UK is going to look and act a lot different than courts in, like, Thailand or India or whatever.

    But taking the US as an example, both sides will get a copy of relevant data, and whichever side wants to allege tampering will hire an expert to try to make that case to the judge or jury. The court itself doesn't verify any evidence. Both sides present their version, and the jury decides what happens - with the prosecution in a criminal trial having a higher burden of proof, at least in theory.

  • Why do people always respond to depressed people, by recommending visiting a therapist or going to gym?

  • Let's take those in reverse order:

    Why do people always respond to depressed people by recommending ... going to gym?

    You basically answered this one yourself:

    I had seen studies that say that training or even just daily walks can highly improve mood, but I had never heard that they fully cure depression.

    There is no permanent cure for depression. The best you can do is treat it. Getting out of the house for a walk, or to a gym, or just outside, seems to be a simple way to take the worst of the edge off for many people. But it's not a cure, which leads into the other part.

    recommending visiting a therapist

    There isn't a universal one-size-fits-all treatment. A therapist can help find what works for each individual. Sometimes that's changing destructive habits, or getting more exercise, or yes, pharmaceuticals (even then, there are lots of different types that work for some people and not others). Getting the best treatment often starts with professional help.

    Untreated depression can be fatal. If there are physical limitations that prevent someone from being more active, and financial (or other) constraints that prevent medical care, there are support groups for depression and other ailments around the US (and I assume elsewhere): https://adaa.org/find-help/support/support-groups

  • You work your whole life to be able to afford a little frivolity. If you're just going to stand in your own way to deny yourself all but the essentials, that's no way to live.

  • Everyone's experience will be personal to them, so it's not anyone's place to say your experience isn't worse, but as a whole, things are better.

    Crime, no matter the category, is down ~33% since the mid-90s.Median household income, adjusted for inflation, is up ~25% (despite the narrative).

    Here's a post/graph I think about all the time: https://bsky.app/profile/simongerman600.bsky.social/post/3ktds56nqus25

    Regardless of age, we are generally nostalgic for a time in our youth. Or even earlier. Notice that something like half (or nearly so) of people think "the most moral society" was before they were born.
