I’ve never clocked on that the colors are in the order of the rainbow. Mind blown that it’s taken your comment to highlight this for me.
I also like that the colors surrounding are shades of lightness… cough cough let’s ignore the brown.

The racist term I was taught when I was a young person
(Color of darkness) (fatherless children) (coerced non-consensual reproduction activities) our (new people to the world) (XX people) but (pure people) go without.
I hate reading resistor color codes because which is the correct orientation for the resistor. Band gaps and positions on real world resistors don’t stand out as much as what the theoretical charts show - so I always meter them anyway.

If it’s a website use a website preview online service.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 3 months ago:
Do you acknowledge the questions you haven’t answered and state that you’ll respond to them at a later time or want another person to chime in?
- Comment on What kind of CAPTCHA is this? 3 months ago:
It’s called the ‘John Hammond attack’. Even though it existed before he added his 2 cents, what you see in your image is his addition.
Watch his video to see him explain it.
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 9 months ago:
Me too. I still use Reddit via the website. I think Reddit is also in a negative place at the moment too. It seems that most things I see these days are negatively voted, or Reddit’s algorithm has changed and it mostly shows me negatively voted content in my feed.
- Comment on Why are peole hating on .world? 9 months ago:
I disagree with your statement about not seeing this type of behaviour on Reddit and it appearing civil and intellectual comparison.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 10 months ago:
I think voting should be as what was originally set out by Reddit; I don’t know if it’s still in their guidelines. The voting system indicates the relevancy of the contribution and whether it adds to the discussion or not. Spam and off-topic contributions gets shoved to the bottom and everything else rises to the top.
Obviously most people on Reddit these days use it as a like/dislike, agree/disagree voting system as well.
Does Lemmy instance owners and community mods ban people for having a different opinion that’s so benign?
Some Reddit mods attempt to be authoritative and ban people who hold different opinions to themselves. I know I have and I stay out of subs that relate to politics, the news, and anything divisive really.

I thought I’d give you context just in case, as your question was vague. You might not have consumed YouTube and was blissfully unaware. :)
- Comment on Ask ChatGPT to pick a number between 1 and 100 1 year ago:
That’s because they asked the internet for those polls. The internet thinks they’re funny by picking the meme numbers. So I can understand why they chose to omit those numbers from their results.

YouTube STEM educator. 15 million subscribers. Probably in the top 5 STEM educators on the platform.
He released a video on the number 37 two weeks ago, with 6 million views.

Hello Veritasium enjoyer

You bring up an interesting point. There are opposing opinions on everything if you go deep enough into the topic, even in STEM fields too.
It’d be interesting to see a Wikipedia that provides pages on the same topic that present each opinion. So the base/overview page on the topic states the summaries of each opinion with a link for further reading. Each opinion page states there are many opinions on the topic and it just presents one. Each page then suggests for further reading, view the base/overview page where the user can read about other opinions on the topic.
