Not if they're going to disturb the relaxing cat.

Semantic versioning.

Most of the time. I use calendar versioning (calver) for my internal application releases because I work in IT. When the release happens is more consequential than breaking changes. And because it's IT, changes that break something somewhere are incredibly frequent, so we would constantly be releasing "major" versions that aren't really major versions at all.

OpenDocument.

Agreed compared to .doc and .docx. And if you're going to version control it, markdown instead of a binary blob.

For academic documents in STEM fields, I'd love to see a transition from LaTeX to Typst. Much cleaner, better error handling, and it has a web UI if people don't want to install a massive runtime on their own computer.

Recipes in concrete metric units, preferably mass instead of volume. Recipes come together incredibly quickly when measuring out ingredients can just be dump-tare-dump-tare-dump instead of trying to get sticky ingredients like tahini out of a measuring cup.

More torx screws. There are apparently some uses for phillips, but torx are criminally underused.

Does COSMIC's design suck or is it in pre-alpha?

Lapce, an IDE written in Rust. It's nice and light compared to most IDE's, so I use it a bit on my aging laptop from 2015. However, it doesn't have the extension ecosystem or polish of my favored IDE, VS Code.

Just take the dive into fish. It used to have a lot of problems with incompatibilities, but that's been less of a problem lately.

I haven't found nushell to be that great as a day-to-day shell simply because it integrates poorly with other Linux commands. But when it comes to data manipulation, it is simply amazing. I'm currently (slowly) working on a plugin to query LDAP. The ldapsearch command uses the LDIF format, which is hard to parse reliably. Producing nushell data structures that don't need fragile parsing would be a boon.

That's exactly what I thought of. Alas, permanently gone dark in protest of Reddit's API changes. Fortunately, we have the power to create it anew! !beholdthemasterrace@lemmy.ml

No, no, grown men making little girls cry is just normal and an essential part of free speech.

Yup, a late friend of mine was a lobbyist at the state level for a mental health lobbying group. His daughter has schizophrenia and that was his way to give back in his retirement. Without lobbying, it's hard for politicians to know when there is a problem they need to fix. They have a small staff and they don't just magically know when there is a problem. The problem is when a politician either can't sniff out unethical lobbyists or just doesn't care.

marijuana arrests

Arrests are done by the police, not the DA, so that issue lies with the police. And as much of the rest of the article pointed out, the number of people who saw the inside of a prison cell for marijuana possession was small.

Here's a fact check that goes over her history as a prosecutor. Hint: it doesn't fit well into a single reductive sentence.

She didn't attend Bibi's Congressional political rally (it was mainly for the majority of Israelis who want Bibi gone), which is unusual for her. Then she punctuates her meeting with Bibi with this. Maybe it's just rhetoric. She will need to outline what sorts of consequences she's willing to impose on Israel.
