The original paper might have other issues, e. g. https://statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2022/01/07/pnas-gigo-qrp-wtf-approaching-the-platonic-ideal-of-junk-science/

But I’m not here to discuss effect size or quality of sources, I think it is much more important to understand that there is no good proof that nudging enables people to make good, lasting changes, while at the same time offering policymakers an easy and cheap way out of applying uncontested, proven methods that would be a lot more beneficial.

Given that you quoted from the last paper, there was a response from Maier et al. to that paper explicitly, correcting for publication bias and finding no effect when “nudging”:

The papers are listed at the bottom of the screenshot you posted, I agree it’s badly formatted so not immediately obvious / visible.

However, I can provide sources later on, I actually still have to get back to another post to provide some papers, but it’ll be a while until I have the time to do that.

No, it doesn’t work - that is exactly the problem. If you don’t want to listen to the podcast (which would be a shame), they list a number of studies in the show notes.

There are a few select cases for which personal nudges work, but only to a miniscule degree which is far less than what the authors claimed. And naturally, proposing nudge theory hinders actual, much more effective, systematic changes that would really benefit people - and that is a major problem.

It’s a face, fake feel good strategy that can be employed to claim improving a given system - like attaching a little plastic string to the plastic cap of your beverage container so companies can claim to have improved the plastic littering problem.

Actually, don’t read the books. The concept is pretty much made up. Here is an entertaining podcast about that:

At least in Germany, what happened is that several local courts upheld a decision to block Pornhub and Youporn. From personal experience, I can tell you there are no practical consequences so far, both sites are perfectly available.

Thank you. I’m so incredibly tired of propaganda guilt tripping consumers to feel personally responsible for issues that should be regulated and fixed by a competent government.

Most people will run a post 2.6 kernel, so prlimit will be available as an interesting alternative to ulimit.

I don’t know what the article is getting at, the generated memes are perfect.

Are you driving? Did you ever have the impulse to just jerk your steering wheel and crash into that tree rapidly approaching at 120mph?

The comic plays off of that.

I don’t know what your previous setup was, but given that running resolved fixes your DNS issues, run:

ln -sf ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

This will point programs that use /etc/resolved.conf during DNS resolution to the local DNS server provided by systemd-resolved.

Then, enable resolved so that it is started when you reboot:

systemctl enable systemd-resolved.service

Finally, start the service so that it is available immediately:

systemctl start systemd-resolved.service

You will want it run those with the required permissions, e. g. via sudo.

Heatsupply sells (mostly?) US and Canadian products. Raijmakers, while Dutch, is pretty bad IMHO.

My personal preference these days:

It’s mostly paper mache and paint. They also have a team and money.

Have you considered creating a macro in any image editor that supports macros and assigning that to a button / keyboard shortcut?

gimp certainly has macros and scripting features. Maybe this will help: https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Automate_Editing_in_GIMP/

You can still edit a mask / selection with the regular UI, then trigger the cut/merge process you desire based on that selection.

I was not ready for how many stock photos they produced.

this is the correct answer

The parent comment is correct. CODE is the server, you need the “Collabora Online app” for document editing. I’m not aware if there are alternatives to the ownCloud / Nextcloud apps.

Yeah, you can be a good parent and still miss your old life. Also, your previous life wasn’t necessarily “selfish” - what kind of bleak, one-dimensional outlook is this?

You can love your kid, love to spend time with them, and still want to go to that one event, concert, knitting group, cookout, rave party, bike ride, marathon, whatever. Often, you can integrate your kid once they’re old enough, and at other times you’ll have to sacrifice your plans, maybe not getting together with an old friend you haven’t seen in a while. If that makes you feel a little sad and disappointed, that’s called being a human being with nuanced emotions, not being selfish.

Being a good parent is about loving your kid, trying to integrate them, spending quality time with them, all while staying healthy, emotionally balanced and hopefully teaching your kid how to achieve just that.

This is absolutely not normal.

They don’t feel stiff at all and they’re incredibly soft to walk / stand in for hours. On top, they’re water proof, so they clean easily. You can get models without the holes.
