How does keeping kids inside the whole time the sun is up improve their mental health over giving them an extra hour of sun after school that they can actually enjoy?

Pazuzu@midwest.socialto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•YouTube won't let me watch a video unless I sign in...English3·5 months agoThey’ve required an account to watch age restricted videos for years now
the only time a normal person would otherwise encounter butyric acid is when vomiting
On the contrary, it’s also the delicious tang in Parmesan cheese. American chocolate tastes as much like vomit as real Parmesan cheese does
Except when they’re not lying but windows by default has ‘fast-startup’ enabled, so every time they shutdown the uptime never resets.
Or they shutdown and turn it back on, which doesn’t count in windows as restarting unless you disable fast-startup. So you get annoyed tech support thinking the user is a liar and an annoyed end user that knows they turned it off and on again.

Pazuzu@midwest.socialto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Programmer tries to explain binary search to the policeEnglish8·2 years agoTakes time to precisely seek to each timestamp, but really I just meant that an hour was reasonable even with a lazy cop doing the search
Pazuzu@midwest.socialto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Programmer tries to explain binary search to the policeEnglish232·2 years agoI thought this had to be hyperbole, so I did the math myself. I’m assuming human history is 200,000 years as google says, and we want to narrow this down to the second the bike disappeared. also that the bike instantly vanished so there’s no partially existing bike.
each operation divides the time left in half, so to get from 200k years (6.311×10^12 seconds) to 1 would take ~42.58 divisions, call it 43. even if we take a minute on average to seek and decide whether the bike is there or not it would still be less than an hour of manual sorting
hell, at 60fps it would only take another 6 divisions to narrow it down to a single frame, still under an hour
edit: to use the entire hour we’d need a couple more universes worth of video time to sort through, 36.5 billion years worth to be exact. or a measly 609 million years if we need to find that single frame at 60fps

Funny enough, there’s an extension that solves captchas by feeding that audio through a speech recognition algorithm. If anything it’s more reliable than solving them manually
AMdroid is similar, bunch of different task and puzzle options you can set for your future self to solve before you can turn the alarm off. I usually do math problems, just difficult enough that I need to be at least 90% conscious to actually solve them.
come morning time I hate the app with a passion, but it’s just the kick in the ass I need sometimes
your link shows a \ before each underscore in the visible text for me in both comments, like this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Blue\_stop\_sign\_-\_hawaii\_-\_oct\_2015.jpg
and hovering or clicking the link replaces that \ with %5C, so the entire thing tries linking tohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Blue%5C_stop%5C_sign%5C_-%5C_hawaii%5C_-%5C_oct%5C_2015.jpg
. clicking ‘source’ on those comments shows just the \ before each underscoreno idea what’s causing it, super weird to have the same bug messing with links that reddit does
also plastic bags ever since ultrasonic welding became more widespread. now the seam is as strong or stronger than the surrounding plastic so you can’t just pull the seam apart for a clean edge like you could with most heat-sealed edges
I can’t have warm hands and usable dexterity in winter. Only in winter can I have painfully cold, numb hands and be sweaty at the same time.
At least in summer my whole body agrees that it’s warm and my hands always work properly
