"Dans la nuit du 4 au 5 août 1789, la France connaissait un basculement inédit. C’est la fameuse nuit de «l’abolition des privilèges».
L’article Retour sur le 4 août 1789 : l’abolition des privilèges ? est apparu en premier sur Contre Attaque."

Good morning BSidesLV! Come find me to receive stickers & discuss MCP Security!
I may or may not be masked, depending on CO2 levels. Likewise I may or may not be wearing the hat, depending on how hot it is 😅
That said, here are some clues to indicate that you have, in fact, found me. If you introduce yourself, I’ll give you a sticker! 😉
P.S. I’m hiring for skilled AppSec and AI/ML offensive security talent! 👩💼👨💼
As far as I know, there is no link between CO2 (or O2) levels and airborne viral load. If you are indoors and want to protect yourself from Covid (etc), don't make a decision to mask (or not) based on what your CO2 meter says — just mask up!
Or, in other words, don't avoid putting on a mask based on what your CO2 meter says. It might give you a false sense of reassurance!

Gendern verboten. Endlich, Danke!
Dann darf ich in DE jeden Kerl ab sofort nun Frau Soundso nennen.
Das wird lustig.
Genderverbote, das hat sowas von Deutschlehertum.
Schaffen wir bitte auch die Endung...in ab, dann werden wir alle vereint Männer, wäre toll! Genetisches Maskulinum, gell?
@DoctorG_1, gendern ist auch in Spanien ei Thema mit einigen durchaus absurden und lustigen Auswüchsen wo es einem grammatikalisch und phonetisch den Magen umdreht.
Persöhnlich ist es mir Wurscht, ich halte mich an die althergebrachte Grammatik, weil ich finde, das Gleichberechtigung nicht von Wörtern abhängt, sondern vom Verhalten der Personen., nicht von was man sagt, sondern wie man es sagt.
Wir müssen erstmal lernen die Person als solche zu wertschätzen, nicht nachdem was sie zwischen den Beinen hat oder welche sexuellen Vorzüge (mit Grenzen, siehe Trumpel), erst dann sind wir bereit an der Sprache herumzuschrauben ohne das Wörterbuch als Fussball zu benutzen.
Die Sprache evolutioniert immer, aber sollte unter den richtigen Voraussetzungen vonstatten gehen. Verbieten ist natürlich keine Lösung, aber Erziehung in den richtigen Themen.
Die Leute sollten erstmal richtig Deutsch lernen und ihren Wortschatz vergrössern. Mir haben dabei Torsten Sträter und Jürgen von der Lippe sehr geholfen um den Reichtum und Eleganz der deutschen Sprache schätzen zu lernen (zum Preis von Seitenstechen vor Lachen)

Question specific to those who work in #ClimateAdcvocacy:
It's clear that Congress is committed to gutting renewables funding & propping up fossil fuels
YET there are some outcomes that illustrate a tiny bit of restraint and responsiveness--like when the Senate considered *taxing* renewables, which quickly got shut down.
So my question is: What is working? Does anyone have insights into what types of #Advocacy actions have impact in this political climate?
For example, how did this happen?

Understanding this is key to getting our species to commit suicide at a slightly slower rate (aka getting the country that produces the most oil & gas to engage in some level of transitioning toward renewables)

She is now talking about women's issues, worker's issues, leaving the GOP, and calling the genocide in Gaza a genocide. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I see hope for her.
The MAGA mindset comes to people who become contrarian. They accept the first narrative that counters the established narrative. Maybe the MAGA movement has gained so much acceptance that she is now finding left-wing views more contrarian than her old views. Maybe this is copium? Guess we'll see.
