Not the person you're replying to, but according to this site here [0], crustaceans make up $262M or 0.64% of the agricultural export for the UK. Not small, but certainly smaller than other agriculture sectors.

Are there specific things that differentiate this app from other mood journals like Daylio?

You make a great point that using knowledge is important in actually learning the study material. Personally, those moments of learning happen when I stumble across a problem where I'm applying my knowledge in the wild.

What I've found is that spaced-repetition software lets me keep in touch with information long enough to be able to have those moments more consistently, otherwise I read something interesting, take notes, and two weeks later its pretty much out of memory. By extending the amount of time info is living in my head, I get more chances to use the knowledge and take it to heart!

This doesn't lend itself to everything perfectly well though, I've had luck learning how to do household tasks like gardening, cooking where I'm semi-regularly getting chances to use what I'm learning

If you're stoked for that, then I would be remiss to not say something about Robert Alter's one man translation of the Hebrew Bible.

From wiki: "Alter's translation aims to convey the literary style of the original Hebrew text in English, recreating as much as possible its poetic rhythms and metaphors"

I think many of the Psalms and Ecclesiastes in particular are more beautifully rendered in his translation

Not sure if you've used shortcuts on iOS but a lot of those customizations don't change the performance of anything. The shortcuts on an iphone add a half second each time you use the app, because the icon has to open the shortcuts app THEN open the app the shortcut is linked to.

If adding a sticker to your laptop increased the boot time a fraction of a second some people would still do it, but many would it find it maddening!

Its an interesting statement, but how much discussion can we get from it as an audience?

I haven't thought about this very much, and there is a lot I'm curious about that he hasn't elaborated on.

What are the signs of rejection? Whats an example of failure, are there examples of that wonderful modular behavior that he admires?

Its a nice way to introduce a thought or observation, but I want to know more about why he thinks that, not what he thinks.

"Knowledge is Golden" -- Cute name.

> People who attempt to back up their intuitive knowledge with science seem to be the opposite of trolls.

Consider the difference between seeing if your intuitions reflect science, and trying to justify your intuitions with science.

If you go looking for information that matches parts of your internal biases, can you reasonably say you would change your mind if you found information that conflicted your view? What if ten articles out of twenty reflected your view? What if one article out of twenty reflected your view? I think you should reread the portion of their comment about using science as a cudgel to see why it can be bad to consider intuition the guiding principle of research.

I think there is room for nuance between 'concern' about privacy and 'absolute dedication' to privacy, and the tone of your opinion ignores it. You make good points, but I would hope for some critical reading of the original poster's argument.

Data never being completely deleted, and the unending tracking being a slow sort of death of personal freedom is a good point, but I read the point of the poster you responded to as this: We can only do so much to secure our privacy, do effective and easy to implement solutions. If we want absolute privacy, its probably never possible until you cut out massive parts the digital world for yourself, and diminishing returns for your efforts most likely aren't worth it.

Is there a reason the submission titles are altered away from the articles?

While again being technically true, I would love to see any white or asian immigrants noting the ethnography of the original Hawaiian people in the time where they first made contact with and lived among the Hawaiian people.

By the time of Kamehameha, I was taught there was a unified monolithic Hawaiian culture.

Hawaiian will continued to be used as an adjective.

And additionally better isn't always the most succinct. I use Hawaii resident or kamaaina to say I'm from Hawaii, I don't call myself Hawaiian.

The person I first responded to called the shirt 'as genuinely Hawaiian...', which while true to describe its geographic origin, carries a different connotation. I think I made that point clear.

I don't think we'll get too much more understanding arguing points of grammar, you have a fair point with using Hawaiian as adjective. Thanks for the discussion.

Yeah, its tough to understand how people think of a word on a case to case basis. Everyone will have different connotations. There is murkiness that exists as part of its use as a noun or an adjective.

My point of erasure relates to making the use of Hawaiian as a noun specifically relating to anything native Hawaiian.

The football thing doesn't feel entirely on point for me, an analogy of Europeans seeing Tex-Mex and calling it Mexican food seems closer to the idea. It is technically right, but some people from Mexico would disagree with that being _real_ Mexican food.

One answer is undeniably clunky, "these pineapples are from Hawaii."

The AP's style guide uses Hawaiian as an adjective.

It is a messy thing when typical ways of speaking English conflict with nuances.

The distinction of Hawaiian as a colloquial reference to anything from the state of Hawaii is made only outside of the state itself.

I can't change the way English itself works so there will always be that meaning, but to anyone from Hawaii, that distinction reminds us that native Hawaiians are distinct from the people of Hawaii today.

The Hawaiian culture has had its fair share of erasure and suppression. To make the distinction is an attempt to honor and remember the unique identity of native Hawaiians.

Hawaii post-Cook ended up losing a lot of its population, because of that and other immigration it began to lose its culture. Other culture loss came fron Westernization and Christianity (Missionaries), the Hawaiian language itself was on the decline because of suppression until a renaissance in the 1970s.

The distinction of Hawaiian in reference to native people is a only made off the islands. To anyone from Hawaii or familiar with it calling it a Hawaiian shirt literally is wrong in our understanding of the word.

To try and spread that understanding of Hawaiian as reference to native peoples is to spread the knowledge that Hawaii is a multiethnic place with distinct native culture alongside its American, Asian and other Polynesian influences.

Hawaiian is primarily used as an ethnonym, so saying the Aloha shirt is a 'Hawaiian Shirt' is implying the shirt as part of native Hawaiian culture. What you say is technically true at a certain level, people who live in Hawaii do have the demonym of 'Hawaiian', but that term is reserved for the indigenous Polynesian people of Hawaii. It would seem odd to say for someone to say they enjoy native American food as a means of expressing their like of hamburgers and french fries.
