It's better now but twenty years ago some Linux distros were so insecure out of the box that you could be fully owned if you logged into the wrong network.

Even still, I don't see most distros leverage the security capabilities that running Linux enables. Linux runs the server side of the internet, being a niche os isn't the security silver bullet it once was.

I never get this argument about taxes and car tires. Did your school not have a civics class or an auto shop class? And if not, did you never learn to read the manual? That's all stuff you can learn in 15 minutes, not need a semester of highschool to learn. Like, you can argue againt cell bio being in the curriculum, but if you want to argue there needs to be a class to read instructions that are included then maybe it's basic literacy you're arguing for basic literacy instead.

I see what you're getting at, and you're not wrong to think about how the lessons we teach kids from the minds and skills we want them to have. There's positives and negatives to the liberal arts education, and it could be said that it is just as much of what is left out then what is kept in. The choice to teach about mitochondria and not the Krebs Cycle is odd from a scientific perspective, but if you know about endosymbiosis then it's a lot harder to accept that all organisms appeared independently a few millennia ago. But once you view a liberal arts education from this perspective then you see these biases everywhere. For example, how many world history classes talk about the Tamil Kings, or the Warring States period of China? It's a lot easier to other a region you don't know the history of.

So we have to ask, what purpose should education serve? What knowledge and skills should we expect people to have by the time they reach adulthood? Add what is the best way to disseminate those?

Holy shit looked up the temps in San Francisco and yes it's 15C

This is because the microscope blocks photons. OP should use a gamma camera or x-ray to see through the microscope body.

A drink company in Japan came out with a drink called 'nanchatte orenji' which looked a lot like soy sauce.

Blender is the gold standard for what a runaway success of foss looks like. I'd love to see FreeCAD get there, but they'll need significant investment to do so.

This is great. I totally bounced off of crank/crankstart, but I think I understand this toolchain better

snakes are wild animals, they're inherently a dangerous predator

That's how you sound. Have you been outside?

I could easily run from a shark. They don't even have legs

I don't know why the question was asked in the city. Go out to the forest women and ask them.

In general, people and bears don't want to hassle each other, doubly so for those in the woods. If you encounter either, you're probably going to be fine. However, bears won't stalk you, pretend to be friendly to gain your trust with the intention of harming you. Men won't go into a blind rage because hibernation season is around the corner and you're standing between them and a delicious tuna sandwich. Honestly if I'm alone in the woods I'd rather encounter an animal than a person because I was in the woods to be alone.

If you are in the woods and encounter a man or mountain lion

• make yourself look as big as possible
• maintain eye contact
• demonstrate you are a threat
• don't trust his lies

If you encounter a bear

• avoid getting between a mother and her cubs
• take extra precautions to bearproof your food at your campsite
• back away slowly while facing the bear (without maintaining eye contact)
• under no circumstances should you fight a bear
