@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social [ALT-TEXT] In Norwegian, you don’t refer to your romantic partner as a “boyfriend” or “girlfriend.” You say “kjaereste,” which is gender neutral and literally translates to “the dearest.” And in Swedish, you refer to your boyfriend/girlfriend by saying “alskling,” which translates into “my beloved one.” And in Finnish we say “mulkvisti,” which means “one I don’t hate as much as the others.” *Squints at Finland.*

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social [ALT-TEXT] If ANY OTHER public figure, let alone a SITTING PRESIDENT, had 300+ Capital One bank accounts closed for money laundering, it would be 24/7 coverage for weeks. The fact that this is a non-story to the media is so absurd and disgraceful. They are continually, shamefully complicit in the largest crime spree in modern American history We are all poorer, less safe, and worse off because that cretin goes unchecked.

Locally sourced varieties are at least better tasting. The common store Cavendish bananas are a monoculture, and this is a very serious problem, being quite vulnerable to a common fungal infection that can wipe out whole crops.

Like, if you knew nothing about this dude, you knew he loved Star Wars. This restaurant was relatively close to a film studio, and one day Mark Hamill came in for lunch. Said server would not be in until about 3 pm, and he missed him. Someone in the kitchen told him about it and he was sad, but what do you do?

@jasongorman@mstdn.business @nobsagile@mastodon.social @scrumschau@mastodon.social So let's suppose there are three choices at D3, one of which will break D5 (so, of course, we choose it!). When we get to D5, we have a problem. So we have to rework D3 -- and possibly D6 and D7, which depend on it. (D5 also has three choices, one of which would break D3. But we won't do that, because we know about D3's choice(s) at that point.)

@jasongorman@mstdn.business @nobsagile@mastodon.social @scrumschau@mastodon.social Hmmm… I don't think I completely understand the meaning of the dashed lines in the diagram. Wouldn't transactive relationships be assumed (and not drawn)? IE: The dashed line between D2 and D9 -- Doesn't "D2 -> D4 -> D9" imply a "D2 -> D9" dependency? Now "D5 to D9 (dashed)" I think means that D9 depends on D5, D4, and D2 (and D1, of course -- everything does).

@jasongorman@mstdn.business @nobsagile@mastodon.social @scrumschau@mastodon.social Most interesting diagram. Insightful. But I have to wonder ... If "Decision One" (D1) was wrong/invalidated, does that not call *everything in the entire tree* into question? *ALL other decisions* seem to depend on it. Maybe if D3 and D4 were wrong, we'd only lose 60% of the work -- << see image below >> (Perhaps an "invalidation" of a decision may be partial -- so only a partial loss to its children.)

@neilk@xoxo.zone Just read it. For the first time. Had not heard of it before. The characters sure plan and argue about their future professions a lot, for being imbedded in a society where literally everyone would tell you, quite consistently, that it's pointless daydreaming. OK, there's some "space" for those who show some potential. But they're not identified until they learn to read (by tape). Hmmm… Isaac Asimov sure knew his readers, and who'd we identify with! 😆 💖
