This is my problem with the PSL, you can't call yourself a party for liberation and then support the DPRK regime, an absolute hereditary dictatorship. It's great to point out the flaws in the US ruling parties, but campism is just ignoring the very real flaws of anyone who happens to oppose the US internationally because they're on your "team". In reality, there's no team except the working class, and these supposedly leftist governments are usually not treating the working class well either.

Graphql is a protocol for interacting with a remote system, parquet is about having a local file that you can index and retrieve data from in a more efficient way. It's especially useful when the data has a fairly well defined structure but may be large enough that you can't or don't want to bring it all into memory. They're similar concepts, but different applications

Sure, let's just discuss sora as if they didn't basically fake their demo video... So groundbreaking to have to have a team of people spend tons of time sorting through bad output that has no relation to other shots to scrape together a shitty demo reel video. How about instead of breathlessly predicting disruption "coming soon" we hold these tools to the standard of the content they put out today, when they're marketers aren't faking demos and lying about what they can do

The point is to stop expanding oil exploitation and refinement, and gradually reduce our dependency on the existing refining capabilities. But sure, your strawman of stopping all refining at once sounds pretty bad, almost as bad as unchecked climate change...

The market isn't great right now, and a lot of companies are doing the thing where they list jobs just to make their teams feel like more help is coming, but have no intention of hiring for the role. Try not to take it personally when an application doesn't work out, it usually is more about them than you, and the numbers game works against you. Hang in there, you'll pull through if you keep at it

Oh hey look, guessed it in one. And note that I said anywhere in the world, but sure they're all cia psyops, that's a very reasonable take. Have fun licking that boot, just because America is authoritarian doesn't mean you should trust what their opponents say about their own bad behavior, that's as ignorant as ignoring the crimes of the west

Let me guess, Tiananmen square was a totally justified response to CIA instigated unrest too? How about you link to a single source from any reputable news agency anywhere around the world instead of random shady sites that totally aren't propaganda? And to be clear, fuck the US government too, but China isn't exactly a bastion of free expression and journalism either

Tell that to the Uighurs

I've been in these shoes, and I'm sorry you're dealing with it. Young people seem a lot more accepting of bi men in my experience, so my hope is that we're the last generation that has to deal with this.

Am I happy? I certainly feel more complete since I figured things out. I don't know though, it's almost like asking if I'm happy I'm right handed or have curly hair. Being pan is just part of me, and it's a part I embrace. I think when people talk about pride, what resonates to me is more "the complete absence of shame" rather than the feeling I get for accomplishing something. Happiness feels similar to me.
