In the end, if we’re just comparing anecdata, this isn’t going to be productive.
I definitely see your point around a lot of people trying to be so inclusive, they end up being somewhat racist. But I see this more of a lack of proper cultural empathy/education -- go figure, Dunning-Kruger is everywhere all the time. But as you said,

So why would we ban the books, rather than encourage reading them and having the more meaningful discussions focusing on heritage rather than identity?
As a slightly more abstract aside, identity anything to me is a slippery slope because it will always automatically encourage one to make assumptions; it's a mental shortcut to say Person A == Person B iff PersonA.identity == PersonB.identity. Given that education is hard, learning is hard, and life is hard, I think we need to at least emphathize and appreciate that teachers and the the education system in general need to often fall back on these sorts of mental shortcuts. But that's we need to really invoke our right, privilege, and duty of grassroots participation. Why not walk into that book club that's overcompensating and help them learn what is making you uncomfortable? You might be surprised at how ignorant they were of their own mistakes and that they're willing to learn from your perspective.
Show HN: SitzProbe.app – Spaced Repetition for Performances and Complex Tasks
Hi HN! I’m super excited to share with you my first completely self-developed app: SitzProbe[1].This is an application that came from a simple (yet unfilled) need I had. When sitting down to practice music, I had trouble keeping track of all the different pieces I knew and which ones I have or haven’t played recently. But I wanted to make sure I kept practicing the old ones mixed in with the...

So you can confirm that you did lose ad revenue because of the claim and really are just stuck until somebody steps in and reverses it? Or is it as described in the YT terms linked in another comment?
If yes to the former, that's horrifying.
Been at least five or six releases since I've messed with it, but seems like they're still going strong! The new AI system seems to be paying off with all the small improvements to, e.g. domestic animals fleeing when attacked.

I'd also highly recommend Ray Tracing in One Weekend[1], which starts you out with literally just a c++ program to dump bytes into a file which can be opened with most standard image/document viewers. Then you don't have to think about or set up any shaders before you can start to experiment with the rendering algorithms.
