Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•In your opinion, is space exploration necessary?
19·8 days agoyes. there’s two branching discussions here:
- Space as a scientific topic, it needs to be understood. Our observation of reality is very local, and although we can prove that some of our assumptions about physics, life and civilization work on our neighborhood, it doesn’t mean that they’re the same everywhere. That alone is sufficient reason for me, to explore.
- Space as the new frontier. Many if not all exploration done on planet Earth has been, in some shape or form, resource-motivated. Lands, food, medicine, minerals, routes, are all found through exploration and normally through people spending money looking for a return over investment. Space is no different.
I think the interesting part is where this two branches touch: If we ever plan on capturing an asteroid for mining, the technology needs to be there to do it, and hopefully the technology is about the benefit of all humankind. This kind of development is showing us the way to move forward and solve problems. Imagine a world when we don’t need to destroy ecosystems in order to get iron because all iron comes from off-world.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If anti-Semitism is illegal in so many countries, why aren't more pro Israel/pro people arrested? They are the most anti-Semitic people on the planet.
3·30 days agoyour argument is about etymology and meaning. I’m not defending anyone, but I’d say that it’s also wrong to have laws that point to actions against or for any race groups without also including a description of how does that description is applied in the context of the law. Meaning changes, language is fluid, and laws need to be updated.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Can someone ELI5 how to upgrade Overseerr now that it's Seerr?English
2·2 months agoDoes CasaOS has a way to mount local folders on containers? if that’s so, the only thing you should do is first, stop Overseerr, then install Seerr, point Seerr’s config folder to the same local folder as Overseerr, and run it. Seerr will migrate the configuration and everything will be as if you haven’t installed anything new, Seerr looks and behaves exactly as Overseerr. Then you can delete your Overseerr installation, but make sure that process doesn’t delete any local configuration.
I don’t think the problem with Jellyfin is Tizen’s framework, the client looks like a fair webapp, with nothing much changing from what the browser client is. Jellyfin needs some serious UX input, and could learn some stuff from the other video apps.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Maybe most of society doesn't have much critical thinking because those who get those "critical thinking" genes go crazy from overthinking things and therefore fail to pass on the genes.
4·5 months agoit’s simple thermodynamics. critical thinking requires energy, calories that you’d rather use surviving. critical thinkers appear when their needs are externally covered because they have disposable energy.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Nobody has ever lit a cigarette because of happiness. Smoking is a anxiety-coping mechanism.
34·6 months agowhat I’m saying is that there’s no path of thought and desire that goes “oh man, I feel so good that I want to celebrate by smoking this thing”, when you say that it starts socially, I wonder how much of the need one feels to smoke is derived from social pressure, anxiety at the thought of not fitting in, or fear of missing out, or simple boredom.
I agree with every advice given here, I’d just add that you need to be proactive: in some interviews you’ll be given a very lax list of requirements and that means that your capacity for risk assessment is being tested, you need to ask questions so that those very lax requirements slowly become very specific requirements. Risk assessment also play a part when you’re determining scaling, security, and deployment concerns, and you win a lot of points by at least mention them, that’s what is expected of you as an engineer with experience. Maybe you’re interviewing for a junior position and the interviewer will say “don’t worry about that for now”, but what if he’s expecting you to worry and you didn’t?
