  • Kinda?

    Each date and time value has a fixed number of digits that must be padded with leading zeros.

    To represent years before 0000 or after 9999, the standard also permits the expansion of the year representation but only by prior agreement between the sender and the receiver.[21] An expanded year representation [±YYYYY] must have an agreed-upon number of extra year digits beyond the four-digit minimum, and it must be prefixed with a + or − sign[22] instead of the more common AD/BC (or CE/BCE) notation; by convention 1 BC is labelled +0000, 2 BC is labeled −0001, and so on.[23]



  • I don’t know where you getting this from, but Rojava is generally considered the most democratic faction in Syria. They’re not marxists, they instead follow democratic confederalism (a form of libertarian socialism). As per Wikipedia:

    While entertaining some foreign relations, the region is neither officially recognized as autonomous by the government of Syria, state, or other governments institutions except for the Catalan Parliament.[19][20][21] The AANES has widespread support for its universal democratic, sustainable, autonomous, pluralist, equal, and feminist policies in dialogues with other parties and organizations.[22][23][24][25] Northeastern Syria is polyethnic and home to sizeable ethnic Arab, Kurdish, and Assyrian populations, with smaller communities of ethnic Turkmen, Armenians, Circassians, and Yazidis.[26][27][28]

    I’d say they’re the best chance Syria and the Kurds have at liberation.





  • This was posted in a weed community first and then crossposted here. Because for a stoner the important question is “how much does a gram of weed cost?”. For a scientist, more importantly the question is “what system of measurements do you use?”, or, specifically, “how much [mass] is a gram [in your unit system]?”







  • It’s targeted at that group even when you apply it to someone who’s not in that group. If a bunch of white people call each other the n word, is that acceptable for you? If someone goes through the streets yelling it, at no one in particular, is that okay? Intent and target does play a role, that’s obvious, but they don’t excuse the use in general.
