Cracking on with the important shit, I see.
At least make sure to update all graphics to webp while executing hate based updates.
This is definitely the most important thing for the country and for human space exploration as a whole.

ITT: People who doesn’t read the article. These science institutions shouldn’t be used for fucking politics.
I wonder if something from the list published in this article has any relation to science or space. Yeah sure, let’s go with “DEI and other Inclusivity programs are NECESSARY for space survival”. I wonder what’s the objective of NASA.
Lol don’t worry, this Astronaut knows pronouns. /s
These science institutions shouldn’t be used for fucking politics.
You’d think, huh? Daamn, that’s crazy
Bro, if you’re going to be sarcastic, at least try to sound smart. You just need to read the title to see its fucking propaganda from the opposition.
fucking propaganda
Damn, really? That’s craaaazy.
Yet you still act like a fucking moron, what is your secret?
Do you also read articles and form an opinion of your own?
Damn, really? That’s craaaazy.
everything is political. you are advocating that these institutions pretend observer bias doesn’t exist.
Bro DID YOU READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE?
Who do you think made that article?!
Janet Petro—the first woman to hold the position since its founding 67 years ago—wrote that diversity programs “divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination,”
In 2021, when she was the director of Kennedy Space Center, she spoke at length in an interview about the value of diversity, saying “our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility has been paramount to mission success.”
The turnaround is giving me whiplash.
There’s no begrudging following of the rules, it’s wholeheartedly embracing the new regime.
This is just another version of pulling the ladder up behind them, no?
I was told to change gender to sex on the apps I develop. I’m pushing to have it removed all together because it’s a field that has no relevance and the order is fucking dumb. My niece is trans saying they don’t exist doesn’t make them not exist.
When it is easy everyone thinks they are Oskar Schindler but when it is hard most people are Hugo Boss.
Sun-Tzu actually described how this works with soldiers, and how do you work with such gentle material. I’d say his book’s parts on psychology are about making a Hugo Boss from a wannabe Oskar Schindler, but if one applies his advice to oneself, one can put different goals.
I also like Marcus Aurelius.
DEI is largely about raising the profiles of minority workers in roles and positions that were both vital to mission success and underpaid/underappreciate-for-promotion relative to the whiter career roles.
Petro’s following in the grand tradition of Boomer senior leaders by pulling the ladder up behind her now that she’s at the top.
You beat me by a minute with that thought! 😆
Boomers are natural bootlickers, no conviction… She says what gets her a head.
Also should she be in a fema camp instead of leeching on federal budget?
Dude, they are restarting people and blaming boomers for everything is just keeping us divided. You want to start throwing ageism into this look at the ages of the tech bros of elon musk doge raiders. All like 19 -26
Look at the average ages of jan 6 Matt gaetz, Alex jones.
The vast majority of everyone is suffering.
It’s us poors together that we need not letting them keep us divided
Fair points but boomers did provide political cover for a lot of this shot like the wars and ACA
But are all to blame now. Nobody knows what a proper opposition is
The quote from the email isn’t her words. They were given to her (and all agency heads) to send out to their workforce to implement the EO. It should not be taken as “embracing the new regime”.
They need to give all interviews in with an Inspector Clouseau accent to let us know they are under duress like the US pilot who was put on TV during the first gulf war.
So… “she’s just following orders”?
Removed by mod
She sent the email. They’re her words now.
Okay, okay, yeah is it bad? Yeah it’s bad but listen up libs - Remember when Harris was being reported as focusing on the middle class during her four month campaign? Huh? Yeah. That’s why this is happening. And we were right to not fight against this fascist horror with the one thing that would have mattered, our vote. She should have paid more attention to people who have it bad.
Any post that starts with “listen up libs” immediately makes me ignore the rest of its contents. Not interested in your MAGA and/or tankie bullshit.
obviously you are a old and don’t understand that liberals are the absolute worst thing in the world next to conservatives. Us kids are down with the leftism now and any Democratic person is a horrible traitor to society which is why we let trump win. You need to read the manga versions of Das Kapital to really get it.
Yeah. Skimming is standard. I appreciate the effort though!
You need to read the manga versions of Das Kapital to really get it.
And we need to read this to really get you.
Oh you.
Bro. Do you not know what the words “not interested” mean? I wasn’t going to read your first wall of text, and I’m surely not going to read that second one. I can’t handle the ignorance from bigots and bootlickers.
Read it so you don’t have to: It’s a troll.
Block and move on.
I use voyager, so it’s more fun to tag em and watch their antics. Always a good laugh when there’s multiple Red tags frothing at eachother.
Since Herr Trumpf got elected for his second term, the line between MAGA and Tankie has been getting preeeeeetty thin. Seen a lot of “masks off” comments from the folk at .ml…
The middle class also has it bad. A worker is anyone who isnt an owner
One would think. And yet she was pilloried for focusing on the economics of the middle class.
Electoralism is bullshit to begin with. Trump shouldn’t have been able to do what he’s doing at all. An actual developed society shouldn’t be susceptible to fascist takeover, because fascists should be unacceptable in government. And the president shouldn’t be able to do anything they want with nothing but good faith holding them back. The American government fundamentally failed a long time ago. If Harris had won it wouldn’t have been Trump, but she was far from a progressive and would not have changed the government in an attempt to preserve it against future fascist uprising.
Not to mention her commitment to Israel. Not to mention she was part of the Biden administration, and had a direct involvement in the American government’s support for the Palestinian genocide.
Yes, it would’ve been better in many ways if she had won. But the choice never should’ve been between a neoliberal conservative and a fascist. America was broken under Biden, too. Not the way it is, nor the way it will be as Trump’s kingdom rises. But it’s far more nuanced than just “if she had won everything would be swell”. And it’s weird to point out non-voters as the problem, instead of like. The past 5 decades of American politics. The many many many people who did nothing to prevent this from happening over 50 years. The democratic party itself failed to meaningfully respond to his first presidency.
Yes if the people who had stayed home had instead voted, and voted for Harris specifically, she would be president and the outcome would be better for everyone. Undoubtedly. Like Weimar Germany though the government was already fundamentally broken and susceptible to the rise of fascism. To simply and immediately put blame on the voters ignores the actual reasons that situation even came about to begin with.
If you have the funds, please support Internet Archives.
With internet archive head quarters being in the US what would happen if the administration went after them? Would people from other countries be able to keep the project going?
We need to distribute all that data, for the sake of history in the future. Data hoarding and torrenting is a service to humanity.
Not just data but in important scientific research too. The republicans want to drive the US back to the stone age, because that’s when they were last relevant.
😇 in my mind, I included those datasets in data
But sure! I agree! We need free and open science, worldwide
People need to understand the art of scientific thinking
That’s unfortunately a very valid point. Iirc the big problem IA has is the sheer amount of disk space required to store everything.
I wish I had the necessary petabytes of storage to at least store an offline copy. I wonder how many disks that would be and how redundant disks you’d need.
Here’s this from 2021. They say they have about 200PB of raw storage across some 20k spinning drives at the time of writing (with more being added constantly, about 25%/yr), and capacities are mixed from 4TB to 16TB, across 750 servers housed on about 75 racks. I have 6x16TB WD red pros that ran me about $355/ea new with tax, and my bill was a smidge over $2100. Assuming you used all 16TB, you’d need about 12,500 16TB disks, which would run you about $4,437,500 without a bulk discount. How much of that is redundancy I’m not sure, but that’s just HDDs, not the hardware to actually run everything between storage enclosures, OS, disks, memory, clustering, etc. They say they say a single copy with 16TB drives would be about 15 racks., but how that breaks down I’m not sure.
I once made this calculation for a database of 700Tb, even that blew my mind 🤣
Depends on what the cops would do.
Just did yesterday after putting it off for some months
I am sure all of them have the skills set and accounts to spend all day for this…
Headline is hyperbolic
it has the GitHub change log in the article, so yes they did have the skill set and accounts, made the changes and posted the receipts
(?!?!?!?)

literally one hour ago you used the same grammatical synecdoche of inferring a subset of the group by referring to the group noun demonym:

Seen you about, you’ve got some good takes, some bad takes, and some absolutely mindbogglingly daft takes.
From what I’ve seen, you are, in fact, a Shit Poster. And while I’ve not scrolled through your entire history, I’m fairly confident that you never claimed you weren’t a hypocrite.
Fair play.
It ain’t much, but it is honest work.

What happened to indigenous people and women? I swear I saw one just an hour ago so it seems like they still exist. Maybe not?
That was a cat. You saw a cat an hour ago. Indigenous people and women have never existed. It’s been straight white men since Adam and Steve. Wait…
