CC has been a godsend for tricky LSP setups in Emacs as well.

Sounds like Russian humor. Family calls it the black speech of Mordor because of the looks you get speaking it in public here.
That fixed it :)

Putting a StarLink dish so it has a tree branch in the way is a good way to get packet loss.
I run marathons. It’s not terribly dangerous but a few people die every year, and it’s a good idea to have the medical oversight, aid stations, etc. that an actual race provides.

If I was an unfair threat to some poor girl’s scholarship I’d be happy to find a solution like just not being on the leaderboard.

Instead I see laws, headlines, and debates on my favorite orange site about whether I should be allowed access to that infrastructure at all.

My two cents as a transfem athlete:

The attention this topic receives is disproportionate considering how rare we are, especially close to the Olympics level.

Most of us do sports for fun/friends and don’t care how they rank us, but would be sad to be banned.

There might be more “biological advantage” nuance with people just starting their transition, but by this many years in it feels silly. I registered as a man for the last event in case anyone might get upset, the staff changed it to say “woman” when I got there anyways, and then I lost to a woman twice my age.

I guess solving actual problems is too difficult.
