@mattly@hachyderm.io Ah, so you're a Jack of all trades, master of none.I fucking hate this expression so god damn much. It refers to a specific type of person that has surface level understanding of a variety of topics. It is stupid to relay that sentiment to people who have multiple disciplines with extended understanding and comprehension. It irks me greatly because I used to be told the same exact fucking thing despite the fact I have deeper understanding of multiple disciplines (namely software engineering & system administration). I know it’s way beyond surface level because when I talk programming to my sysadmin friends they get soooo confused and I have to explain a lot of prerequisite, vice versa for my programming friends.
With all of the terrible news that has been coming out these past couple of days does anyone have good news? I don’t mean something "uplifting" that makes you question why that situation existed in the first place. Genuine, good news regarding things like technological advancements. News regarding something cool like a hobbyist breakthrough on something. It doesn’t have to be "big news" either just something that makes you have some hope in the world. Feel free to reply to this with whatever positive news you’ve seen recently that you’d like to share.
@SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo so, i want you to imagine that you took a single uncooked penne noodle. use that shit to drink a milkshake and tell me it's tasteless /lh
@SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo Ever wanted to taste coke mixed with raw pasta noodle? I mean I've used a variety of the straws because the States are trying to mandate that shit here. Paper straws need to die, bamboo straws are meh they're not the best not the worst. Pasta straws? Die in a fire.
@gavi@grimgreenfo.rest Or the fact that the holocaust was a massive tragedy taking the lives of >6 million. Watering down the word "Holocaust", "Nazism" does nothing to help prevent future tragedy. You can make parallels between how modern day fascists use the same tactics as the Nazis did. It does nothing to say "Oh they're Nazis". That just waters down the word, it's the same thing as saying every little disruption in government proceedings is an insurrection. We have a word for "holocausts of different people" it's called genocide. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_genocide we have used it to classify events before. Not everything needs to go back to "Oh this is directly related to the holocaust". (Some of it is directly tied back to the holocaust such as the relocation of European Jewish folk. That does not mean that this is the Holocaust 2.0).
@gavi@grimgreenfo.rest People genuinely forget how influential the party was. Hitler Youth was specifically designed to indoctrinate children who did not know any better into the Nazi ideology. Not every member of the party was a full proponent either. There's a difference between the people charged in the Nuremberg trials and kids who were forced into the Nazi youth. The Nazis did not have some sort of "dead eyes" or weird anti social behavior. They acted as anyone else, your friendly neighbor and so forth. To people who were torn by WW1 Hitler had some very convincing arguments (people want to believe that there's a way out, people want to believe there's an easy fix that's why the party was so effective). There's so much more that went into it that people just do not have any sort of understanding, or respect for. I do not respect the nazis. I do understand they had very effective techniques to mislead people into their ideology, stuff that if you were there at the time could very easily buy into as long as you were not part of the groups they were advocating out.
