Rust celebrates ten year anniversary with Rust 1.87.0 release

Rust is celebrating its ten year anniversary with a brand new release, Rust 1.87.0. This release adds anonymous pipes to the standard library, inline assembly can now jump to labeled blocks in Rust code, and support for the i586 Windows target has been rem … ⌘ Read more
10 Medical Conditions Named After Mythical Creatures
In medicine, naming conventions often reflect anatomy, symptoms, or the scientists who discovered a condition. But in rare, memorable cases, doctors turn to mythology—borrowing names from ancient beasts, demons, and creatures of legend to describe bizarre syndromes, rare deformities, or unsettling behaviors. These labels don’t just make for vivid shorthand—they hint at how surreal, mysterious, […]

@Codebuzz@www.codebuzz.nl I have separate mail boxes for private and work, but flattened both to have a simpler structure. For work, where we use Outlook, I am using categories for organising the mails and privately I am using Vivaldi’s labels system. The main idea is to use search and grouping through dynamic saved searches instead of static folders.
So I’ve flattened my work and private email inboxes to single inbox folders and I don’t even know anymore what I was thinking before trying frantically to organise everything in sub folders. Labels and search filters are the way forward.
Moved my email back into a single ‘inbox’ folder instead of trying to keep everything organised in sub-folders. Using Vivaldi’s labels instead for organising the messages. Makes sense because I sometimes had trouble if a message needed to be in multiple boxes.

 history, if someone directly asked him "do you support rape" he would not say "no", he'd go on one of these rambling answers about property crime like he did in the video. Maybe I'm mind poisoned by being around academics my whole career, but that way of talking is how an academic gives you an answer they know will be unpopular. PhD = Piled Higher And Deeper, after all right? In other words, if he doesn't say "no" right away, he's saying "yes", except with so many words there's some uncertainty about whether he actually meant yes. And he damn well knows that, and that's why I give him no slack.

Let’s assume for a moment that an answer to a question would be met with so many words you don’t know what the answer was at all. Why? Why do this? Is this a stereotype of academics and philosophers? If so, it’s not a very straight-forward way of thinking, let alone answering a simple question.
Well, I can’t know what’s in these peoples’ minds and hearts. Personally I think it’s a way of dissembling, of sowing doubt, and of maintaining plausible deniability. The strategy is to persuade as many people as possible to change their minds, and then force the remaining people to accept the idea because they think too many other people believe it.
Let’s say you want, for whatever reason, to get a lot of people to accept an idea that you know most people find horrible. The last thing you should do is express the idea clearly and concisely and repeat it over and over again. All you’d accomplish is to cement people’s resistance to you, and label yourself as a person who harbors horrible ideas that they don’t like. So you can’t do that.
What do you do instead? The entire field of “rhetoric”, dating back at least to Plato and Aristotle (400 years BC), is all about this. How to persuade people to accept your idea, even when they resist it. There are way too many techniques to summarize in a twt, but it seems almost obvious that you have to use more words and to use misleading or at least embellished or warped descriptions of things, because that’s the opposite of clearly and concisely expressing yourself, which would directly lead to people rejecting your idea.
That’s how I think of it anyway.
