Fair enough. When you see it introduced in like, Eastern Europe, it is due to American cultural imperialism, not Irish. At least so I think.
Also
Fair enough.
I see. Looks like it could keep things tidy. I will try to stick to this solution then.
“You can apply for benefits for yourself, your spouse, or your children.”
“You can apply for benefits for yourself, your spouse, and your children.”
No wonder you failed. The critical comparison would be ‘and/or’ = ‘or’, not ‘and’=‘or’ .
Wow did you like …parse the rest of the argument?
See my other comment, Wikipedia says the axes are as I said.
Edit: And illustrating time as the vertical axis, it is wildly uncommon. So this ‘framing’ rebuttal is like …hysterical.
I see, so you need way more knowledge to get a small increase in reward, hence the steepness. Point taken.
Edit: Wikipedia though
A learning curve is a graphical representation of the relationship between how proficient people are at a task and the amount of experience they have. Proficiency (measured on the vertical axis) usually increases with increased experience (the horizontal axis), that is to say, the more someone, groups, companies or industries perform a task, the better their performance at the task.[1]
The common expression “a steep learning curve” is a misnomer suggesting that an activity is difficult to learn and that expending much effort does not increase proficiency by much, although a learning curve with a steep start actually represents rapid progress.[2][3]
Nice premise, but I don’t think there are valid examples of everyday use of ‘and/or’ where it could not be interchangeable with just or. Like, formal logic aside.
you fuckin toad, do better next time, anyway here’s my insurance information
This de-escalated kinda uneventfully
Came here to say this. The top left guy is also pretty chill.
The context being set by conservative media on a daily basis spewing the idea of a caricature transvestite posing a danger to women. In case you have missed that. It was well known that men pose a deadly danger to trans women long before the right decided to demagogue on this issue. See below for my quote of Rowling’s who actually cheers trans women being raped to death in male prisons. I hope you now see the relevance.
Note that Rowling is very well aware of the issue. She in facts condones, nay, applauds it
In the scene, a trans woman, Pippa, follows and tries to stab the protagonist, Cormoran Strike, before getting trapped in Strike’s office. After demanding Pippa’s ID, her trans status is revealed and her visible Adam’s apple is noted, while it’s noted that her hands were jammed in her pockets. Pippa tries several times to escape the office before Strike finally says, “‘If you go for that door one more time I’m calling the police and I’ll testify and be glad to watch you go down for attempted murder. And it won’t be fun for you Pippa,’ he added. ‘Not pre-op.’”
TBF I crammed together two different angles to make the slogan fit into the meme. If we are to discuss this seriously, it breaks down to two angles:
IIRC there are massive differences in the probability and volume when it is a trans woman. Arguably this is due to the different secondary sex features between trans women and cis men. Long story short, if you a trans woman, then rape is almost certain, relentless, and possibly lethal.
a smug little prick
lmao
a mug full of cold piss
worth it
Gender Recognition is multifaceted. Different jurisdictions may hold different concepts about how gender is recognized. In some places gender is legally formulated but this is not to mean that the sex marker on the birth certificate can be changed. Additionally, gender recognition may require medical interventions, sterilization, a psychiatric diagnosis. Some may require several, others none, of the above. Obviously this leads to a nuanced situation.
One problem with this is that noone keeps track. Many reporting bodies can count any of the above as ‘gender recognition in law’.
