True, but I also think that my exact answer likely generalizes to most situations where institutions are capitalizing on the suffering of people.

IMO this post isn’t about the willingness for people to help each other in times of need, it’s about the willingness (and ability) for the community to organize a defense against institutions that are using the situation to exploit the community.

Did the banks go out roaming the streets helping people?

I don’t question if communities would band together, I question if a community banding together could still pose enough of a threat to a bank or auction to pressure such a sale.
What are a bunch of broke farmers going to do to prevent a foreign REIT from buying the property in an online auction?

Why would that make banks less likely to take foreign money instead of more likely to take foreign money?

It absolutely could not happen again, regardless of how organized the community was, because banks simply wouldn’t sell the foreclosed property in an auction of community peers if they weren’t getting good money for it, they’d auction it to REITs and corporations without them needing to set foot in an auction house.

They’re looking for local access network access only

I was just testing it out lol.
There is also a graph plugin for an obsidian-like view, but it’s kinda janky.

There is a beta AI plugin too, which (as much as I hate AI) is something I may try. The power of NotebookML is just too much, I wanna be able to ask it shit about my D&D campaign notes.

I was going to switch to trillium next, but in the end I decided not because it relies on a database even more than Joplin does.

I’m in the process of giving Silver Bullet a try. It seems to be pretty well designed. I don’t really like that folders are just cosmetic and not useful for navigation, but I like that it is open source, that the documents are saved in the file system, and that it’s self-hosted instead of synced.

That’s the whole point of this post.

What if you do retain your memories, but your past lives were creatures that didn’t have the ability to form memories?

I would call all of those “something like a soul”; an embodiment of your essence external to your physical body.

If it’s not an embodiment of your essence external to your physical body, then it’s difficult to really call it reincarnation, since it’s not you

This is basically what CI/CD pipelines do.

Compile the code, run tests, run static analysis. If results pass, submit the code. If results fail, reject it with an explanation.

Idk the details of how you’d implement this for a class, without letting everyone see eachother’s completed work, but I’m sure it could be done.

I feel like there’d be a lot of ants and insects in there too.

The way they die in old age does not appeal to me.

Growing forever, but eventually when they get too large, their shell becomes so difficult to molt that they die of exhaustion before they can complete their molt.

I assume that belief in reincarnation requires belief in something like a soul to be reincarnated

I’m currently in the middle of switching.

I’m using immich, running on a raspberry Pi, saving to my NAS mounted as a network drive. I access it remotely via a CloudFlare tunnel.

However CloudFlare doesn’t like serving video for free, so I’ma move to a VPS running pangolin and a few other security tools.

I also plan to find a better off-site disaster recovery backup solution for my NAS. Maybe AWS glacier, or maybe another NAS at my parents connected via tailscale, where I can send periodic full backups.

Imo the main issue with oop is that it’s very easy for people to make bad designs. Generally the feeling I get is that if you work on a well designed codebase, then you’ll come to like whatever the main paradigm of that codebase is, and if you work on a poorly design codebase you’ll come to dislike the paradigm.

That’s by design. It’s why regulations that give power to workers never pass, because it’s actually let emplyees apply pressure on their employees to be ethical, and employers don’t want that

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism type shit.
There are no companies where I agree with their ethics, but I gotta work. From there it’s just a matter of shades of gray, rather than a dichotomy; there is no clear line. You just gotta do the best you can. Make the best choices available to you.

When a human dies because a tool was designed with needless danger, the manufacturer is often prosecuted.

But again, I think you’re missing the point.

I feel like you’re missing the point.
They’re not saying to jail computers, they’re saying be ware of political leaders using computers to abdicate responsibility.
