Usually it is intent. Does the stalker show up in multiple places where the stalker knows the stalked is supposed to be? Does the stalker show up to private locations uninvited?

To answer the second part of your question, yes. Improv is good because it forces you, not an external source, to process a set of information quickly to fulfill a stated goal. It is also good for working on public speaking and interpersonal skills.

I knew one engineer who took improv as a way to improve interpersonal skills and to be able to respond faster in client meetings. When talking to them and they brought it up, I responded “Yes, and?”

There kind of was some attempts, but more from the point of view to strip down the language as a way to standardize it:

It isn’t so much a reform on spelling as it is a way to standardize vocabulary to make it as mutually intelligible to non-native speakers

Yeah. If it was just sex, there are states you can go to to get that cleared up.

But if you look at history, there are a lot of unplanned pregnancies which resulted in shotgun weddings and extended family structures which supported these events.

You need to define the design event before determining what the correct course of action is. If it is a natural disaster response, you should have enough food, potable water, and fuel for a few weeks. Anything beyond that and you really need to start questioning how the assumptions affect your prep.

If you’re expecting climate change/agricultural blight, not all crops are going to go at once. You need to select foodstuffs to keep where there aren’t any equivalents in the market.

If you’re expecting long term war creating embargos, there will be a calorie deficit over months or years. You are also going to have community members and government trying to redistribute any available foodstuffs from hoarders. Unless you are very wealthy, you likely run out of food within a year unless you can grow and keep your food. Even then, you’ll likely be caught as everyone is starving and you still have some fat on you.

If you’re expecting collapse of supply chains causing mass shortages, security is going to be a major concern. That’s why people are recommending being armed and organized.

It is the reason why a lot is people don’t take preppers seriously. A sustained food shortage beyond a natural disaster is likely going to result in an issue with a lack of security or the security apparatus has a vested interest in controlling scarce resources.

Just because it wasn’t accredited as a private school doesn’t mean that isn’t what it functionally was.

I’m also not surprised that this program was functionally better than public school since there public education system in the South became garbage when segregation became illegal.

It sounds like you went to private school.

There’s enough data from COVID that shows pulling students out of school creates students with less social ability than those physically in school.

And I agreed that West Bengal had higher figures in my response, but I was talking about Kerala because that is what the post’s article is about.

Doing a quick Google, it seems like the culling of the electoral roll happened and targeted non-Hindu people more than Hindu people.

Given the numbers reported in the West Bengal rolls, I would expect that election to be highly impacted by the change in rolls. However, it looks like while the draft SIR got rid of 2,400,000 voters per this article, the final number in Kerala removed was only 53,229 per this article.

Modi definitely tried to steal the election and I wouldn’t be surprised if it significantly affected some state elections, but it appears like SIR was muted in this state unless you have information I don’t have.

Also, for others, I converted the commas to a western format since I have issues seeing lakh and crore in the same way that I see thousands and millions.

It is news because Kerala was the last leftist state government in India. That every state government is now center or right likely has major implications for the next national elections.

What’s a news source that puts the blame on Modi’s national government?

Yeah, but those tools should be built into Lemmy and they aren’t. Even something as basic as mod seniority based on something other than how long someone has been a mod should have been corrected.

Good mods and admins are able to do good work despite the tools provided, not with the tools provided.

Is it? The article seems to say something completely different.

I’m not surprised. Lemmy has been sold as a Reddit where people can be in more control than they could be on Reddit. It turns out you only get that control if you’re an admin.

But the decision to defederate or allow a mod to use AI is at the admin level, not the user level.

The user threat to leave isn’t worth that much.
