It is actually very difficult to externally rotate the hips as much as they do in ballet for some people that have never trained in it even if they can do the splits and had a lot of yoga
Balancing on only the toes instead of the whole foot is also challenging
These two features make ballet exercise unique compared too many other common types of exercise and uniquely different than many other types of dance

More men should do ballet training exercises but not necessarily perform
Let the woman continue to suffer a shortage of male danseurs
Princess Tutu is a Japanese Anime that goes into great detail about ballet style when people move
Even when they are running or dance fighting they run with the hips externally rotated like in ballet

@shortstories My sister did ballet for years. She did not pursue it. She was remarkably fit and lithe.

This reminded me of her.
Sorry for rambling. Perhaps it was just cathartic release.
Aside: yoga is not a fitness regime. It is a spiritual practice to be grounded with Nature. Western ideas have subverted it. Unfortunate.
Also: The Russians were clearly better at this performance of Swan Lake. Synchronization and smoothness of movement.

Programming a computer is not weird or abstract or even that difficult. It's just writing a list of steps in a format your machine can understand. In theory, a human being could also "execute" a program as well if they understood how it worked.
And computers are just electronic circuits that are designed to execute stored programs. Programming is the original way to use a computer.

salary questions come off as desperate or greedy. I would only discuss when an offer is made or the interviewer brings it up first.
Asking about work culture sounds like you're someone who is difficult to work with or has high expectations for special treatment.
Job responsibilities is basic stuff.. What's the problem with that one?
@Valvoline
I get the preference against discussing salary, but everything else should be on the table. The candidate is interviewing the company just as much as vice versa, so some information before accepting a second interview or offer is required.
I would certainly ask about the job scope and what kind of awesome projects they have to look forward to.

These guys have a pretty good take on recent history and military operations and politics. A lot of things come to proxy wars between US and Russia/China, and while I can understand US animosity towards China, although even a lot of that I think initially was based upon fear, we feared communism would take over all of Asia even though we knew historically it always fails, and even today China has adopted a strong bit of capitalism in their economic system. So we had the proxy war in Viet Nam and Laos over this fear. I do not understand why we do not get along with Russia, after all our people are both largely Caucasian, our languages have most of the same vowels and consonants and are not that dissimilar, and in modern times our culture isn't even huge different. We both have major oil interests, and so there is competition there, but there could be cooperation and I think it would benefit both countries and the world at large. Given that we, Russia and the USA, were allies during WWII, I am not clear on how we became enemies.

The Zionist Interior Minister, Moshe Arbel, has banned anti-Zionist Rabbi Yisroel [Dovid] Weiss from entering occupied Palestine just hours after a meeting between the rabbi and Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi. During the meeting, Rabbi Weiss conveyed a message of solidarity with the people of Iran in light of recent Israeli military aggression against the country. He also expressed the stance of the Jewish opposition to Zionism and its crimes.This move by the Israeli government reflects its growing intolerance toward dissenting voices, particularly those who publicly criticize its policies or engage with nations considered adversaries.
In response to the ban imposed upon him, Rabbi Weiss issued a powerful statement:
“Advocating for peace should not be a crime. However, in the Zionist entity, it clearly is—because Zionism thrives on war and conflict. Its very existence goes against the will of God. It depends on occupation, murder, and crimes.”
He continued, “I do not expect permission from the Zionists to enter Palestine. Thieves do not get to decide who enters stolen property. I have never visited the Zionist entity, nor do I plan to visit occupied Palestine as long as it remains under Zionist control.”
He added: “In the past, I visited Gaza for humanitarian reasons, entering through Rafah. I am prepared to visit a liberated Palestine in the future—with permission from its legitimate Palestinian government.”

in reply to Solarbird • • •it's a device for tuning automotive distributors. looks like it's missing the chuck? you clamp the distributor onto that arm, and then a chuck is supposed to go from the plate up to the distributor. you put the wires on it and the thing spins the distributor at various speeds (see the 'engine speed' gauge) and the firing points show up on the plate at the bottom. the charts are various ignition timing information for various engines, so you can see how far off your distributor is and figure out what you need to change.
I haven't seen anyone use one of these things since I was a little kid, and I'm old as hell
