Sorry but this comment comes off as quite entitled. Not everyone has the option to pick up and move or get a job with astronically higher salary for their area...
At the same time if you get drunk, visit the roof of the empire state building and lean over the edge guess what? You’ll find you cant fall thanks to a tall safety fence.
Sure, your own residential roof is a different story, as is a dinghy.
The difference to me is the expectation of protection from obvious hazards in public and commercial spaces.
In addition to monitoring (a last ditch effort imo) it seems relatively trivial to install nets or fencing to prevent falls off cruise ships. Why that isn't alreay mandated given the statistics provided is beyond me.
I agree it makes sense to install safety devices to protect against carelessness and inattention. But cruise ships already have that, with waist-high railings around all outdoor public areas.
Going further, with horizontal netting or 6 foot fencing, would be trying to protect passengers against injury even in the case of outright thrill-seeking or tomfoolery. I'm guessing the cruise lines resist that partly out of cost considerations and partly because they don't want the ships to start looking like prisons. Passengers aren't going to like it if they bought a luxurious getaway and they find themselves in a cage.
It's ok to care about privacy. But we're supposed to be above mud slinging and bandwagoning. Facebook isn't news, and we're not improving privacy by continually dragging down the people who are working to fix those issues.
It's a great idea. But since it's actually not tail at all, but rather a very specific text filter that looks for date strings and translate them (assuming it would work, say, on a file with two timestamps to a line), maybe another name would be better?
I guess this is more "tr for timezones"? So maybe tztr? (time zone translator)?
Knowing which keys to press translates loosely into an understanding of theory (even at a very simple level)
Think of the piano keys (chromatic scale) as the alphabet, and theory as the language that makes words from it.
Tbh a little theory goes a long way. It’s all related and your understanding will build over time. You’ll start to see patterns.
Just start off learning how to play a simple song. Then, try to think about what key is this song in? What chords make up that key? What intervals am I playing? How would I transpose this song into a different key? Etc.
You can teach yourself, but a teacher or good course will accelerate the process.
Sorry but what on earth is this demo video blathering on about? half way through it's still setting the plot to some hypothetic bad day. Get to the point!
Exactly what I was going to post. At the very least I was expecting a demo of the product after all the nonsensical "bad day" blabber. But it never came and I still had no idea what I was looking at.
On the contrary they seem like perfectly rational responses to an introductory video that is redundant at best and patronising at worst.
I was dissuaded from installing it because I assume the products quality would reflect how little the founders seem to understand people in thinking that it's necessary to accurately detail what a poor start to the day would look like.
The video should be a simple gif demonstrating how an email with a negative tone is detected and turned into a positive tone. People are smart enough to figure out how that could be useful.
The feedback might have been good but the tone of those comments had hint of snark. Considering the product is to help you remove negative sentiment from your responses I would say they were good use cases.
replace blathering and blabber with more constructive words
Keyword for me is portable. The reason I (and I assume most people) use bash is that it's ubiquitous. This framework wouldn't be. Not that it's not impressive and looks fun to try out. But I can't see a lot of use for it in practical terms.
