Are people here reading the whole mastodon thread?
it is 200% okay to bully them into submission
Sounds rather toxic, and also counterproductive.

Well, German has almost as many vowels as English and we’re doing just fine I think. On the other hand, French orthography is similarly fucked up although it’s a direct descendent of Latin and they don’t even have any weird sounds they can’t write concisely. So I think its just a matter of trying.
The english language badly needs an orthography reform
I read it like russia sabotaged the PMs own arson attempt
Garbage take. Just fill it into a glass jar at home. Nobody cares about the 0.03g of flour lost leaking out during transport.
Is there any science behind this or is it just some guy pulling stuff out of his ass that he feels people can relate to?
“Arbitrary scale at which water freezes” is such an annoyingly dumb representation of the Fahrenheit scale, that even as a European I feel the need to defend it.
Lol they just copy-pasted the name “graptemis geographica” to three different species of turtles
That’s a bit of a false dichotomy. What media we enjoy and what activities we are passionate about is partly a product of capitalist ideology. So to get out of that, it doesn’t help to pursue mindless enjoyment.
Why would this little bash script that does nothing extraordinary need constant updates? Some pieces of software might just be complete as they are.
Even a broken clock has a justified true belief about the time twice a day, as they say.
No technology inherently benefits poor or rich people. If this is used commercially, it will cause ecological harm, because the people using it make no money from caring about ecological impact.
Also I’m mainly annoyed at the idea that more precise genetical engineering = less danger.
Sure, let’s release organisms with precisely engineered advantages into our ecosystems, nothing could go wrong.

Idk, I’m not really talking about whether the article is good or not, but about the people it is about and their misconception about what the challenges of climate change will be. Maybe the article itself is also a problem because its not at all critical about that stance, but whatever.
True, but in General there is a tendency to underestimate the catastrophy the world is heading towards, and to make other people underestimate it too, so they buy your luxury goods.
People should start worrying about what they are going to eat before they make plans on where they are going to get the champagne from
The problem is precisely that nobody has an interest in mislabeling animal product alternatives, but these policies create the impression that the problem they claim to solve is real. This is nothing but useless bureaucracy and a PR stunt for the animal product industry, disguised as consumer protection.
The guy is German, and the German language traditionally uses generic masculine pronouns, although that has become a big political issue in the past years. Some new gender-neutral forms have developed, but some of them have even been banned by the “center”-right-wing clowns in two state governments, and it’s all a bit of a mess. The guy probably thoght “they” in English is a similarly experimental concept, and while it’s still dumb and he should just try to be as inclusive as possible, it’s probably not a matter of him purposefully excluding women from the documentation.
