Years ago i was developing some programs to help me in my laboratory and i was writing some programs and wanted those program, from different process, to communicate rapidly with each other.
One way i thought would be rapid is to share a block of physical memory and I could not figure out how to do it … so instead, i used files (and/or pipes).
Someone closer to the developers than you are ?
Dear Sir (Wolf) 🇰 🔵 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 ℹ️,
… looking at my avatar you might guess I’m a smiling radioactive citrus myself 😋.
The rapid changes you are discussing would be of the cultural kind but I might have made my question differently and ask more about possible genetic changes (or long term changes).
Thanks for your contribution to this discussion. I will be happy to read you in other posts and comments.
Hi @Flummoxed@lemmy.world
you are very caring and I appreciate it. Thank you for this.
Hi @ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world
its ok, no hard feelings. if really i made you laugh a little bit, then, i am also glad about it.
Take care 😌
Your answer here is the best one so far for me. Are chimpanzees some of those frequently raiding other groups (tribes) ?
Better education will always be a major part of the solution … but i don’t think education alone will be sufficient to make us good.
Like 99% of people you will (probably) disagree with me on the following, but eventually (in 50 years ?), i believe that many people will volunteer to have genetic therapy to decrease their aggressivity and that of their descendants.
We have to change in a fundamental way since we are still waging wars while climate change will likely kill a majority of us in the next few decades.
Sources i give in the body of my post indicate an evolution of the knowledge since the BBC series of 1973 and also that even today archaeologist // historian disagree on this topic.
… if only I could find that source again …
i believe they were explaining that there was an archaeological discovery where there was a village not so far away from the shore where they discoved huge piles of shells that showed that, for a very long time, there was a settlement connected to an other settlement near the shore and that for many thousands of years, there would have been people to stay near the shore bringing those shells to be eaten by people at the higher settlement further up, away from the cost and it was a proof (an example) of a stable settlement for tens of thousands of years so demonstating that, at the time, there was no war …
i believe they were also saying (and this we now know it isn’t true) that war was invented sometimes like 10,000 years ago, and mostly at the same time in many parts of the world. (Jericho’s fortifications being the first example of large war)
i am quite sure it’s not something I have invented because on some topics I have a good memory.
i did not read it but, for people out of the loop, here is what i found about it :
by Llama 3 - - a.i. :
“The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined” is a fascinating book written by Steven Pinker, a Canadian cognitive psychologist and popular author.
Published in 2011, the book presents a comprehensive and data-driven argument that violence has declined significantly over the course of human history. Pinker contends that, despite the impression given by the media, the world is actually becoming a more peaceful and less violent place.
The book explores various forms of violence, including war, homicide, genocide, torture, and cruelty, and examines the historical trends and underlying factors that have contributed to their decline. Pinker argues that this decline is largely due to the rise of reason, science, and humanism, as well as the development of stronger and more effective governments, international organizations, and global norms.
Throughout the book, Pinker draws on a wide range of disciplines, including psychology, history, sociology, and economics, to make his case. He also challenges common myths and misconceptions about the nature of humanity and the causes of violence.
“The Better Angels of Our Nature” has received widespread critical acclaim and has been praised for its meticulous research, engaging writing style, and thought-provoking ideas. If you’re interested in understanding the complexities of human nature and the trajectory of human history, this book is definitely worth checking out!
… i am looking into this because it seems i had this wrong belief that for a period of about 40,000 years from 50,000 to 10,000 BC most of humanity did not know warfare. i might have seen some old documentary stating something like that …
And i also formed the belief that victorious men in warfare had a larger descendancy (increasing our tendency towards conflicts).
This seems very dangerous : just look at the photograph !
People don’t have to have a purpose : yes.
in such a situation, people still are : yes.
Furthermore, any lists of purposes I may choose today, if situations changes, I could have to modify tomorrow.
Here you are addressing people from all over the world : they have different cultures, backgrounds, perspectives … and some of us didn’t have time to take our first coffee before reading your writings !
So, be indulgent and take this smallest of efforts to add this "/s” please. I for one will be thankful 😌
Lemmy never had infinite scrolling.
(maybe you have a peculiar setting ?)
A technology advance species invades hearth peacefully and solves all our bad problems.
Hi adONis,
a “block” is not a “ban”. e.i. : if I have account ABC and from that ABC account I block user 123 then, from ABC I cannot read anything posted by 123 but I would be able to read 123’s posts from my other accounts (and so would anybody else).
I’m not an administrator, I just read what they did and they said (if I recall correctly like 2 weeks ago) that they did block certain IP addresses for certain VPNs (maybe your VPN is not part of these IP addresses ?) I don’t know anything more than that.
and @number8@lemmy.world
This was done on purpose : VPN are blocked for lemmy.world because trolls posting spam and bad things where hiding behind VPNs
My experiences are a biased view of the world by the fact that things closer to me appears more important and things far away from me appears less important.
Knowing this, I can try to readjust my views but this bias will in part remain and this is unavoidable.
(this taught is from before my teenage years)
That isn’t inversely not un_good, not.
Great answer, straight to the point, easy to understand for non-native English speaker
… and you also add this last part that I didn’t know.
