I know Auslan (australian sign language) but yes

Also this one https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/signup-sign-language-for/gbllbjbhbafgdcolenjhdoabdjjbjoom

I use BSL as it’s closest to Auslan on it but I think they also support ASL and Indian Sign Languave

Extensions that turn audio into sign langauge. Makes it easier to follow than captions for me.

agree with that

Switzerland. But I think you can get add free plan for double the money.

Healthline is a shit tier source to be fair. Even wikipedia says it is a terrible source. They put it in the same category as the daily mail.

First things first the delay in sentencing before the election was a joke

He’ll have died by the time he is sentenced to everything. He’s got more trials to face than years left to live.

People are panicking because they are dying of asyphyxiation.

But according to the wikipedia article the media tends to report on it as if the panic caused the deaths. When it’s the opposite.

From the wikipedia;

Incidents involving crowds are often reported by media as the results of panic.[16][17] However, the scientific literature has explained how panic is a myth which is used to mislead the attention of the public from the real causes of crowd incidents, such as a crowd crush.[18][19][20]

Crowd crushes which are often wrongly called stampedes still happen, even if “first world” countries. A recentish US-based example would be Travis Scott’s Astroworld concert.

Basically if you read the whole wikipedia article nearly all of these so called stampedes are actually crowd collapses where people are packed in too tightly and when a couple people lose their balance and fall it almost has a domino effect and people often die of injuries or asphyxiation. And panic doesn’t cause these, it’s having crowds at too high of a concentration.

At even higher concentrations, you have crowd crush, where people who are standing upright get so packed they are unable to breathe and are asphyxiated to death.

Unless you download the pdf/epub off a very legal website. And only buy the books of small authors you want to support.

But did you even read my full comment. Aside from the general trend in names, it brings up the bigger subject of erasure of non-western thinkers from mathematics.

If nobody cared there wouldn’t be an entire adacemic subfield pertaining to this.

Also what does a random historical essay about the end of the golden age of science in the arabic world pertain to erasure of non-western contributions in mathematics?

Band aids don’t have the implication that whoever invented them was band-aid.

Naming a mathematical theorem after someone has the implication that they were the inventor. Obviously if it happens in some cases it’s not too problematic. But if there’s a general trend of removing certain groups from mathematics it does become one.

For example the myth that mathematics was mainly invented by greeks in commonly taught in schools around the european and anglophone world.

There’s a real phenomenon of eurocentrism and erasure of mathematical contributions from outside the west. This is a well documented problematic which has had dozens of books and papers written about it. So I don’t think your dismissal as idiotic is warranted. Obviously that was just some random guy in a 30 second video which was made to be engaging as much as informative, but it raises an interesting subject.

If you want to delve further this is an interesting paper to enter into the subject. I enjoyed reading it for the history of mathematical analysis course I took for my masters. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/249740664_Eurocentrism_in_the_History_of_Mathematics_the_Case_of_the_Kerala_School

Anyways, I didn’t make that video, and it is obviously far from perfect. But your dismissal of it as “idiotic” strikes me to be oddly closed minded.

Care to elaborate on your criticism?

neither do I

And I didn’t say feet?

My favourite map without NZ, was a map that included the southern island but not the northern island. So the country was unrecognisable.

80% of the US population is in the East. The high plateus of the US and the rockies are extremely sparsely populated

Yes I was to be honest. I didn’t imagine I would be accused of being a nazi because I detailed war crimes against them.

Not to mention I’ve made similar posts in the past about nazi war crimes against the allies, I believe one was specifically about the soviets, and people were quite respectful and intelligent in the comments.

I was reading through wikipedia on world war two, and found out that over half a million german prisoners of war died in soviet gulags after the end of the war.

I’m pretty well read on world war two and I’d never heard that before, so I decided to post it on “today I learned”.

There’s a real problem with Neo-nazis, less on lemmy, but it’s increasing worldwide. But you’re accusing the wrong person. I mean I am literally signed up on an LGBT+ Rights instance.
