Morals to talking about penalties for your retirement accounts....

Which can be significant

Maybe in a few years.

Right now we're talking 0.0057% of the monthly active users. Lemmy likes to hype itself up a lot, but the market share is incredibly tiny, and likely will be for years to come. As a platform Lemmy would be incapable of handling that kind of scale, from both a software, design, hosting, logistics, cost, moderation, and community perspective.

I'll be here, but let's check in each year on it. I'm guessing it will be a few before we either see accelerating growth, or Lemmy is upset by better designed federated social media software, or it'll just be fragmented between dozens of competing platforms.

A good example that average reading comprehension is terrible.

I see the lack of critical thinking apple doesn't fall far from the Reddit tree.

Or have any sort of blue light filter (display has a more red tint to it) which is why they look so similar.

Either way it's a bad idea to use colors of this sort for data display

Bro just stop you're being a dick to someone who doesn't understand a comic.

This community doesn't need this sort of toxicity

What is the point of this comment then?

Of course there are people that haven't heard of this or don't understand this. The world didn't freeze and people didn't stop being born, new humans growing up and becoming adults and just learning about various parts of the world everyday don't know about these sorts of things.

Education and information is a perpetual struggle and a perpetual effort.

Damn, that's sexist, generalized gender political strokes that paint half of everyone in a negative way isn't healthy.

Propublicas presentation of this is excellent.

And it's absolutely infuriating to see the edits made that not only went in the face of empirical facts, but completely undermined the meaning of the guidance.

Literally cannot tell the difference between two of these colors.... Why?
