   @CubeRootOfTrue @csgordon "which generally has better grammar and flow"

   No, just no.

   It generally has flow and grammar that sound like content farm slop.

   This cause concerned positive discrimination and whether a trans woman appointed to a position with a gender quota would count as a woman. The court said no.

   It might be taken to imply that a trans man appointed to a similar position also would not count as a man, but much of the reasoning in the written decision considers only trans women. Maybe a trans man would count as a man if the cause were fought again: stranger things have happened in British law.

   @ubik no, no, and no.

   It would be more efficient if you were to read the Wikipedia article, or just take my word for it, rather than posting questions. I am pretty sure that most objects are not the New Seven Wonders of the World (TM).

   Well, no.

   It turns out "Gothic" fandom still exists and there's even a Discord server. Someone learned about the book somehow, told their friends, and now some of them want it as a collector item.

   I mean, it is nice to find someone with a shared appreciation of something, but also just imagine, you made a game 25 years ago, and some people still like it enough that they want a book about it in a foreign language.

   @aburka @pixx @vkc Yes & no.

   It is if you accept the user clicking where the computer tells them to as part of the language!

   But for any practical purposes: No it is not.

   Whether this means HTML isn't a programming language... Depends on definitions!
   As far as I'm concerned most of those saying it isn't are doing so to dismiss HTML, & the important skills it represents!

   When people ask me if I feel isolated because of my COVID precautions, I very truthfully tell them no.

   It's not the precautions that are isolating.

   It's the alienation that comes from realizing most people are willing to kill their neighbour for brunch that's isolating.

   And giving up precautions isn't going to change that problem.
