It's always a funny little thing when I upgrade on #Debian Sid and I find Debian branding updated
@Tarale @coolandnormal isn't most of the clitoral structure more lateral than what would be depicted in this medical cross section? if just showing the glans, it doesn't seem far off
IDK what a death cult is, but everybody liberals dislike seem to be in one

Who's up for getting one of my Art stickers? All I ask is that you let me know when the envelope arrives.
Together we can share a little joy, and collect data on USPS delivery times.
How it works:
1. You sign up
2. I mail a sticker to you
3. You tell me when it arrives

the context preexposure facilitation effect is weird. apparently you can manufacture false memories into rats with this effect
@lia_pas that's an atypical perspective on a skull *for an artwork*. typically you see an emphasis on the facial bones and you're looking from outside the skull. what's the intention behind the choice to look at an interior inferior surface?

For #BrainAwarenessWeek I’m sharing my brainiest #SciArt #embroidery pieces. Here’s woman in skull (2016), not a brain per se, but the part of the skull where the brain sits, imagined as an architectural space.
@cazabon trust, I don't have a misplaced love for setup.py either: almost all of the python projects I've worked on don't have a need for the full power and complexity of the python interpreter to specify their packaging requirements, so I'm happy to abandon setup.py. it's just that I didn't have any desire to do it right then
@diazona
@diazona heh. I'm probably going to switch these projects over to the new hotness eventually if they even continue to have any relevance. I've barely touched them in the past 2-3 years
<gripe>goddamn newfangled #python packaging tools telling me to stop using setup.py. I just want to make a small update to my stupid old projects</gripe>
@tokensane I can't speak for Americans generally, but I think, yes, this is fairly well known
Is it ethically permissible for a human parent-to-be to consent to genetic modification of their embryo such that it installs halorhodopsin or channelrhodopsin into neural membrane in specific brain regions by adulthood? This would be to allow targeted inactivation or potentiation of said regions for the sake of experimentation. I'm assuming that this could be done without harming the development of the embryo, that there are no side effects, and that the genetically modified person would, of course, be the only one to decide whether or not they participate in experiments that leverage such modifications
Got a warning about my boot partition being too small for a new kernel image *before* the install commences. I've had this problem (install failing partway through due to lack of space) with apt / #Debian for years. Glad it's finally addressed
the marks of an experienced and effective software dev isn't that they don't ask questions or that they already know what to do from the jump. it's that they formulate and ask questions well before the deadline and understand the answers better (and can tell when they don't understand)

Not my circus, not my monkeys: good luck with all that
My circus, my monkeys: I am running a successful monkey circus
Not my circus, my monkeys: I am running a successful monkey-rental service
My circus, not my monkeys: oh no, oh man
