Why are low effort comments not worthwhile but low effort docs are fine?

Could not agree less. Ive always found SQL an unreadable mess but tools like polars and dplyr are such elegant ways to manipulate data.

Pandas is a mess though.

Hello ClosedRouter!

Disappointed to see how many of the comments here are fairly negative. Especially for a site that so values true open source.

While this isn't the ereader for me (I need a larger screen and buttons), I absolutely love the idea and passion behind this project. I will look into supporting, if finances allow, as its something I could easily gift to younger members of the family.

Huge congrats getting it to this point!

Your comment is just another flavour of various fallacies christrians trot out i.e., whats stopping you raping and murdering without the bibles moral framework

And your also trying to twist my words in the opposite direction. I'm here claiming that someone's body belongs to only them. And your response is to say, if its only yours, why don't you go cheat??? Come on, this is straw manning at its finest.

Your view comes from entitlement. You have a right to your partners body because a book says so. I say different. I have a responsibility to my partner because we are in love and build our beliefs together.

Your view teaches subservience. You can add all the context you want, but at the end of the day, there is a line that says "your body belongs to your partner". And that line is used to subjugate.

Whereas a healthy couple would start from the respect that they don't own each other, and then build the boundaries that they are comfortable with.

Also, from your comment

> "marry and enjoy sex" is what Paul is trying to say

This is your interpretation and shows your own bias. I read it as "you must have consent from your partner to withhold your body from them". Which is revolting and coercive.

Funny how my view that 'your body belongs to yourself and no one else' doesn't require study and cross-referencing and other passages to understand.

Describing my interpretation of a passage that quite literally says "your body belongs to someone else" as a 'worst possible reading' would be comically hilarious if not for the rather sinister undertones.

Your interpretation of this passage is reading far more into things and doing far more justifying than mine is

I do notice the symmetry. It is saying that each of them can use the others body as they like, without regard for the other. But that's fine, because they can do it right back.

A progressive system is not built off "I'll do what I want to you but I also will let you do it back". That conveniently ignores that there is still an entirely non-consenting party in this.

Your body belongs to you. Your partners body belongs to them. And religious institutions teaching the opposite of this is what has lead to decades of marital rape and entitlement. I call that very very far from a progressive system

Searched for "sexual exploration". One of the results i got returned was from corinthians and read:

The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

I'm so glad this religion of peace sees consent as profoundly unimportant

Have not read this series (yet), but Watt's Blindsight is an absolute masterclass in literary sci-fi

In my experience, business people are chomping at the bit to build and manage the ops for their apps, but it's always an "IT Operating Model" that is thrown back at them

SE is an amazing and wonderful resource

This is something that Palantir Foundry supports extremely well. Its data layer is built around the idea that anytime you're making a change, you make a branch, build on branch, only data you modified is copied to the branch, and then you can test it end to end on the branch.

Can't imagine doing it any other way

Couldn't agree more. R and dplyrs ability to pass column names as unquoted objects actually reduces cognitive load for new people so much (pure anecdata, nothing to back this up except lots of teaching people).

And that's on top of the vastly simpler syntax compared to what's being shown here
