Strictly speaking this breaks rule 2 and probably rule 1. But I get that it’s meant to be meta so I’ll leave it up to see if people complain.

Ha, you felt this so strongly that you reported it for being “painfully accurate”.


I guess I can’t please everyone.
I would like the community to be a place for respectful discussion so in general that’s how I try to moderate.
This community is my first experience being a mod so I’m sure there are better ways to do it.


Thanks for the update!


Rule 2 is that the entire thought must be in the title.
Would you be able to update the title?

I have never looked into the details of an OCR, but if it’s a classifier it should give the it’s confidence in being a 1 or L so you can start with the low confidence characters.


I know a few people that are trans or on a similar journey. I never thought any of them had an agenda, they were just living their lives.
One of them came out publicly while I was working closely with them. They sent out an email informing everyone what their new name was, what their preferred pronouns were, and it included an FAQ with some links with more information. It had to be a super scary thing to do but they understood that it’s something new for a lot of people, myself included, and they were happy to talk about questions people had. People were very welcoming. Of course there was some office gossip but it all quickly died down and it never came up again (that I heard). No agenda, just people living.
If a co-worker had continued using the trans person’s old name, yeah I’m sure that would be harassment. Not respecting someone’s wishes for themselves is typically harassment (at a minimum).

I don’t love the second half of this post, it seems like bait to bring out the worst in people, but so far all of the comments seem to be keeping things civil and avoiding the bait.
Thanks all.


This post was reported for stereotyping against Japanese people. Stereotyping is probably always a bad idea so I’ll remove it. I’m always open to feedback.


Rule 2 is that the complete thought should be in the title.
How about something like “Lemon juice comes in a lemon shaped bottle, but why is a floppy still used for the save button?” Or “what icon will replace the floppy for the save button?”


Hell yeah!


Damn, the kids sound cool these days


Well you can already buy shells. She sells seashells by the seashore.


This is you standard high quality shower thought right here. I’m a big fan.
