Long term computer programmer, making my own library. American based. Far left politically. Politics centered around promoting use of paper ballots. Follows news about environmental collapse, political corruption in my country, human rights, science and tech. Earlier

This is a brilliant maneuver
Actually this cost a lot of time and money. Even today I have to take an extra step to see if master or main is use . Before it was standard.
Curse this
Because the argument is stupid. Much like pointers not being a good term to use because it’s rude to point. Or man pages being sexist.
This tech we all use is advancing exponentially.
And we must be ready to embrace the dizzying changes in the next few years so that we can improve our lives and have better governments.
I agree with that other comment which argues to set it as the users expect. I think the 1 based is logical here
Noo…!
Who else to call out the atrocities of car culture than the underdogs who are most affected by it?
I have been both riding bicycles and driving huge trucks, not at the same time. And when driving was far less likely to be critical; I would think “this is bad”, and left it there. Five minutes later forgotten.
But when I rode bicycles these very things impacted me much more; I would stew in anger. Then , in that mindset I could more easily reflect on the absolute travesty: not just where I was but roads and metal things slicing up the landscape over continents.
Yes, although I still worked on my own projects.
I have drifted from professional to other for many years.
Now that I have coded for two generations now, I often think I should have chosen some main occupation that was not a sit down job.
But it is what it is, and I will probably program more than anything else for the rest of my working life
Been coding for decades: burned out several times. I always return later after other jobs
I think the most job satisfaction I ever had was demolishing a house, another good thing for me was delivering pizzas.
I have noticed in the anglosphere that a significant percentage of mainstream reporters and journalists are what used to be called “independently wealthy”.
I guess it’s always been that way, but I think it’s more so now
They sign other papers in addition to receiving salary.
Usually with very low salary one expects other compensation, besides money: but performing arts and other categories allow legal creativity.
If More questions I may be wrong, such as exact details. But have seen this in real life ( although not me) . Should consult legal expert in Texas state law
Salary in Texas avoids all that, I can hire you for a salary of 1$ a year and demand you work 60 hours. But you can quit any time
Legal in Texas: put them on salary and have them sign a few papers.
The Ukrainian revolution had from the very start an anti corruption message. Politicians have both taken advantage and undermined it. This week is not unexpected. Zelenskyy backtracking today is not unexpected. Him using smoke and mirrors, in his new idea, to avoid undermining political allies will not be unexpected next month.
It is utterly predictable that this newspaper will issue similar editorial later.
One day there will be not so much corruption in the life blood of Ukrainian politics. But not soon. Maybe in a generation?
I use templeOS btw

This is nothing to worry about
Probably some of both
