It could of course be simply down to the fact that all children are different, but what worked for us is honesty and the closeness that brought. I've see parents "talk" with their children, where it seemed more like they were

I check out my kids screen every so often to see what what he's really up to. After the panic of recent weeks, I looked more closely at Roblox, and spoke to my kid about it. It could very well be that I'm being naive, or even stup

I think that's also his belief, but he's currently bitter and angry about how dark-mode evangelists are not doing the same.

Ironically, my eyes can't take dark mode and I suffer all the issues proponents of dark-mode use against normal mode with it. I've had to install Stylish just to have control over those websites that think they know better than me

It's like driving behind a truck or van, you can't see past the (tinted) car in front. The solution would be to overtake people with tinted windows. Unfortunately, the type of people with tinted windows are exactly the type you sh

Good lord, what a load of curmudgeons some of you are. Decorating things makes them look pretty and covers up the corporate free advertising. It's not any more complicated than that. The hate on political stickers I get though.

Remember, we make laws and they are there to make society work/better. So whilst the legal answer is "yes", I presume the real question was "_Is_ this gender discrimination?", as in; let's actually think about

It sounds like they're like the Dutch. The government is trusted because they've been shown to be trustworthy, but they are always accountable. If something dodgy happens, people are quick to point it out and demand action. So it&

He says he was glad he did end up looking into it, but the outcome would have been the same if he'd ignored it all. Online isn't real life. Online has only the weight you give it.

There are clear laws now, so they do have the power to decide if something's against those laws. This is besides the point I'm making though. Ofcom should be telling the ISPs to take action, not the sites, since the ISPs are the &

I meant I'm running that command as the consumer, and have never had problems. When I make my own packages, I ensure that anyone doing the same thing for my package won't have issues by using version pinning.

Except I'm saying my experience is the opposite of the problem you purport. I (as the consumer) have always done "pip install whatever", and have never run into issues. One of the commentors above explained what the problem r

Ah, I get it now! The problem occurs when someone publishes something without version pinning, because package versions can become incompatible over time. I don't think I've ever installed something outside of what's availabl

I really don't get this. I can count on no hands the number of times I've had problems simply going "pip install cool-thing-i-found". Sure, this is just my experience, but I use Python a lot and use a lot of tools writte

I've never even understood the virtual env dogma. I can see how version conflicts _could_ happen, but they never have. Admittedly, I'm surprised I never have issues installing globally, especially since others keep telling me what
