From what I've read so far, it has many elements of shonen manga, but I find its humor refreshing and I think this series has potential.
This series has been my bedrock for the past couple months (along with One Piece of course). The series is set in Ancient China in the Warring States Era, and I'm a sucker for historical stories. I love Yasuhisa Hara's art style and characters. The actions and grandeur of his characters remind me of Baki.
Just finished watching this. The series revolves around Kaiji who resorts to high-stakes gambling to climb out of debt. I frankly love how crazy the plot gets, and I think it's a must watch/read if you're a fan of Akagi and/or Kakegurui.

If anyone's interested in homotopy and category theory and wants to learn more about ends and coends, this book is a great introduction.
It would be a cool project to compile great introductory texts for various topics in math.

Comment on Microsoft urges Congress to regulate use of facial recognition in ~tech
toratoratora LinkGlad I quit FB: Also: Gotta love Microsoft.Glad I quit FB:
In April, privacy groups filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission saying that Facebook had turned on new face-matching services without obtaining appropriate permission of users. Facebook has denied the groups’ accusations.

In May, for instance, Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s chief executive, said at a company developer conference that privacy was a “human right.” Yet in June, Microsoft donated $195,000 to an effort to defeat a consumer privacy bill in California.
Gotta love Microsoft.

Comment on ‘My son is not the same’: New testimony paints bleak picture of family separation in ~news
toratoratora Link ParentHowever you feel about this issue, seperating children from families and subjecting them to the conditions described in this article is inhumane and dehumanizing.

The place was freezing …The girls placed their mats in the floor very close to one another, since there was not enough space to fit them more comfortably. Girls as young as 3 years old were detained in this place and without their mothers,” Poletti wrote. She said one girl, 14, referred to as “G,” “felt hungry most of the time she was there because the food they provided her wasn’t good in quality or quantity.” “G” couldn’t sleep through the night, Poletti added.
This simply isn't acceptable.

Comment on Dvorak, Colemak and other alternative keyboard layouts in ~hobbies
toratoratora Link ParentJust started the transition to Dvorak! Do you have any tips to ease the switch?Just started the transition to Dvorak! Do you have any tips to ease the switch?
Thank you and @TheInflatableKayak for sharing! I didn't know Tildes had a sumo community; I must have missed the first sumo post.
I kept up with the bashos from Jason's channel before the strikes, but it's good that we now have an official source for highlights. It'd be nice if NHK organized them into a playlist, but I guess I can try creating one and share it.
