Sverige should add English as an official language. English is required for international business and the primary shared language between collaborators from multiple countries.

I think English is a terrible language linguistically, but it is the one with the most interoperability and economic opportunity.

in reply to Jeremiah Lee

you mean one-teen like four-teen and six-teen?

i kind of like that 11 and 12 follow the old base 12 system of "one leven" and "two leven" even if they use a pronunciation of "one" and "two" so archaic that even most english-as-first-language speakers don't recognize them

in reply to Robey ☠️

@robey I was thinking of the pattern twenty one, thirty one... so teen one. But ten groups < 100 are another different pattern from one hundred, one thousand... So yeah, I guess it should be one teen, one twenty... with an understanding that 120 would become one hundred two twenty.

"man up", "man down", ...
what about women?
in reply to sarah tonin

the real problem of info pages isn't that they lack some feature that's useful, or have one that's actively bad, it's that it's yet another standard that solves no problems not already solved. if i made a program, and had it depend on my own version of what the c library should be like, would it be better ? probably. but it wouldn't be in line with the rest of the system, and if everyone did the same it would just be a nightmare. info pages are kinda like that.
in reply to sarah tonin

to be fair, there are a few navigational features that do sorta motivate their existence

it's just most people's experience of using it will be flailing around unsure how to even page through it or quit it, let alone navigate it, so that kinda negates the benefit

in reply to Irenes (many)

and fundamentally, having two systems like that just ... doesn't work
in reply to Irenes (many)

yep, because it's nonstandard

in a vacuum, they're better, but in the context of unix like systems where man pages are already extremely widely established, info pages just stick out like a sore thumb

in reply to sarah tonin

we don't actually like the Emacs-style keybindings and wouldn't find them better even in a vacuum, but we agree with the general idea of what you're saying
in reply to Irenes (many)

i meant the part about having proper links and subpages, whereas man pages only put in bold the name of a page, and in which manual it's located
in reply to sarah tonin

oh, yeah that is important for sure

though used naively, it breaks the core thing manpages do where if you know the name of it, you can jump to it instantly from outside the system... memorizing names isn't everyone's favorite thing to do, but it's important that these different approaches to navigation not sabotage each other

in reply to sarah tonin

i actually like what tldr does, it's actually filling a gap not served by man pages, or at least not by most: giving examples with descriptions

because here tldr doesn't actively step on anyone else's toes, though i would still prefer if all man pages had an EXAMPLES section

"For 2,000 years, the question Christians have feared most isn’t whether Mary of Nazareth was a virgin. It’s whether an illiterate, poor, politically powerless, teenage girl living under imperial military occupation, with no meaningful autonomy over her body or her future, had any real ability to refuse, and what refusing would have cost her."

in reply to Nat

"... A sexually active Mary would raise unbearable questions. Did she want it? Did she choose it? Did she enjoy it? Was she allowed to refuse it? Did god have sex game? Those questions destabilize a system built on sanctifying submission. So the story removes sex entirely and replaces it with miracle, because miracles erase negotiation. They bypass consent while still demanding obedience."

Nat reshared this.

in reply to Nat

"... God cannot be called a rapist because the act is recoded as divine will. God cannot be called a pedophile because Mary’s age is minimized, mystified, or ignored. Consent is presumed, not because it was given, but because refusal is rendered unthinkable when the asker is omnipotent."

Nat reshared this.

in reply to Nat

I don't think fictional characters are able to consent to anything
in reply to jan Ki | 奇

@ki consent (and lack thereof) very much exist in fiction, and very much affect the real world where those stories are told
in reply to Nat

I'm split about this. Yes, it does, but to me it has very different implications than consent of real people.

Anyway, I was more thinking that it's weird to talk about fairy tale characters as if they were real.
