    We still have no word for the, uhm, “soft” gender to differentiate it from the biological gender?

    Sex. The term for biological gender is ‘sex’. You can be male sexed (ie assigned male at birth [AMAB]), but that doesn’t make your gender male necessarily. We have plenty of words for ones gender that aren’t male or female, it just scares and confuses people who don’t want to think about other genders than male/female.

    Because, since gender has two parts, he’s right and wrong.

    He’s not wrong, you just seem to lack proper knowledge of the topic.


  • Why would the year, the least important, need to be first?

    For proper ordering for one. ISO8601 is objectively the best way to label anything that might need to be ordered based on time. This forces data points to line up properly in chronological order, and makes it easy to time slice as needed.

    And why are the pieces of the pyramid made so the ISO standard is the only one that looks right?

    Because it’s the only one that goes from largest value to smallest. It’s first because you start from the largest as the base (year) and work down through size to seconds.

    ss:mm:hh:DD:MM:YYYY would also order the numbers based on length, but would look terrible if represented like that

    Agreed. And any sort of data analysis would be so much harder


  • You need to remember that the technical people may not have an issue with it, but the bean counters tend to be more stuffy and upright about shit. And a lot of clients are especially up tight in my experience. Something about paying you money and expecting standard business responses.

    I wouldn’t give a shit if I saw that, but I absolutely would not send that up the chain if a junior sent me that screenshot (or I’d crop it down to the most useful info. Last thing I want to do is listen to some asshole c-level complain at me for 20 minutes about professionalism.


  • What a shit take.

    Yes, people should also be upset about Biden sending bombs to Israel, but that’s been going on for years and, unfortunately, is pretty much well worn ground.

    But muskmelon throwing a fucking Nazi salute is absolutely worth all of this attention, because it shows how little they care to hide it and how open they’re going to be about this shit.




  • I bet that was entirely unrelated to the constant drumbeat of “leftists” saying that voting third party to show the Democrats their mistake of not being everything they wanted them to be. Absolutely no relation to the people who literally told me they wanted trump to win because it would hurt the Democrats.

    And that’s just what I saw on Lemmy. Mainstream brainwashing social media platforms are magnitudes worse. Add in the billionaire media owners giving him millions of dollars in free advertising, and I’m not surprised at this outcome.
