  • I can understand people wanting markers. But maybe we have like 10-20 markers and someone having 5-6 from the other side is not weird. Like if someone is presenting as a girl completely and is not, they could just reply with "oh, I'm a guy, I just dressed as a girl today" and people would be like "that's fun" instead of being weirded out.

    Like long hair/short hair for example. Or how girls wearing pants is normal now.

    In my case, my culture does have people cross dressing during certain events so it's not as ostracized. But that could also be because people didn't actually think about wanting to be the other gender but just dressing up for one occasion.

    Few fun things:

    • My parents wanted a daughter but had me,
    • my nickname at home was a girl's name version of my name,
    • only children close to my age and vicinity growing up were girls so I grew up playing "girl" games,
    • my mom didn't stop me from painting my nails, or putting makeup or anything as a child. (I still paint my nails black sometimes),
    • In highschool I was the only guy among the group of students with nails too long on a biology lab,
    • a guy friend once told me I walk gay (I didn't even know that was a thing?)
    • I don't watch sports, so I don't have many common things to talk to guys as much,
    • Good friends I had (guys) were based on either common interests (programming, philosophy, etc) or other nerds. And when I don't have those and only friends are based on proximity then I don't have as many things in common.

    All those considered I'm still a guy, I just don't care about being "manly", and just do things that interests me. Plus lots of the things people do to be manly seems to just make them spend even more time with other guys lol. And although I don't want to do a lot of things that are for each genders, I just wish everyone was chill about doing whatever someone likes. Or for someone to just try it out to see if they like it not, instead of thinking "that's what X do, I won't do it".

  • I second this. This is how I got my wife to like me.

    Be careful not to go overboard though, my wife, during the first few weeks, thought I might be hacking into her phone because I was tech savvy and we had too many weird things in common.

  • Good read, thanks

    But I believe in generics, just write your functions so that it can work with all the types ;)

    translation: Just get rid of what is a boy or a girl thing. Just let people do what they like.

  • Tiff is for science. Like for actual values that need more than 0-255 level of precision.

    For example we use Tiff (or GeoTiff because it has coordinates) for storing elevation, temperature, slope, etc variables of an area for processing. It can also have a lot of bands not just RGB.

    For example, satellites record RGB, infrared 1, infrared 2, and many other bands and even if we can't see them it's useful to get that information for processing. That helps for example to recognize river from forest even if both look green to our eyes.

  • I learned English reading so many books that I just pronounced how it's spelled in my head. Combine that with general non-social tendencies I didn't really heard or had to say a lot of those words.

    I had to spell out words to people because of that. Then I came to US, and now I can't even spell the words because the alphabets are pronounced differently lol.

  • My girlfriend (now wife) didn't understand when she showed me brown sugar for baking and I said something along "that's a lot of brown sugar to have just for your use". She just said "No I use it up in a year" :(

  • People having to learn first hand is the problem I see plaguing the world. You can't live 100 lifetimes, so we have to learn from other people's experiences too.

  • I think most early users do check further than open source licenses. It's possible they'll add things later, but if they add after it has enough users we have significant number of users to have some people check. And if the user base is small then they're probably more involved, or are reading/modifying code for their use cases.

    Of course it's not foolproof, but it has worked for a long time because of things like that

    Jump

  • I think for a open source projects with such a low number of users, the first few users will definitely look further than "it's open source".

  • That's the thing though if it's open source and 99.9% don't check that 0.1% checking it will be enough.

  • Minimum payment is dependent on your salary and you can die with debt.

    Making education free would have been way better that making college expensive and then providing loans.

  • Honestly, there's a lot of increasing religious things going on around the world, and some people claiming their religion did things better than science and we should go back to that. So there are definitely people that'll benefit from these things if this is funded by them.

  • If you find half a worm, you just spit it out, cut/bite out the wormy part and continue. Can't throw the whole fruit. Although the worms I remember in guava make hard shells around them as they eat, so most times you bite into it, know immediately, and throw that part.
