Fwiw those I mention in the OP are a few I personally consider typical but thought others might consider atypical these days, so wanted to head them off.

Edit:
was replying from notifications, so missed where someone else pointed this out, sorry for the extra notification! πŸ˜…

...Have they ever explained why?

Thanks! From your descriptions, I'll have to look into these.

Context is an important tool when determining authorial intent, but one can investigate a piece under the frame of the death of the author too should they want to understand more what they personally gain from a work or what someone else entirely gets out of it.

Am I understanding correctly that you're suggesting an extension of death of the author to death of the industry to discern what one draws from art?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

To clarify, I'm asking in the sense of art made within larger businesses/corporations, wherein artists often give up some or all of the ownership of their work. Think of the fraught relationships between bands and their music labels, actors/directors and studios, developers/writers and publishers, etc.

so it’s hard to engage in a conversation.

Have you tried asking a question related to the original post's content?

Are recalls possible in other US states, such that people could try to recall other governors?

But when is Wendy's?

[...] I just want to point out that automating things that exist purely in the digital domain is far easier than automating things like ship breaking.

Not that you're saying otherwise, however isn't that even more of a reason more developers and resources should be allocated toward automating complex and risky physical processes?

That could be part of it, but I was thinking more in terms of sharing resources like what you linked in your other comment as well as other methods to encourage community activity.

Also technical stuff like what to be aware of regarding banner/image resolutions, language settings, handling community handoffs to other moderators, etc. Basically a mix of more specific Lemmy support and general community building/outreach discussion.

Right, I was wondering if there might be a distinct term so that it might be clearer that a private entity's action is not a violation of rights in the sense that a government action might be. Thinking mainly of why xkcd #1357 tends to come up a lot

Nice! Thanks for sharing, hadn't gone digging around for this before!
