1.) I am a member of the LGBTQ community as well. There are more letters than just T there. 2.) I did not start with any antagonism. I came in here saying that there is a valid debate about whether trans women should be allowed in physical sports, because there is, but that this ruling on chess is pure bigotry plain and simple. I did not state they should not be allowed to compete, I simply stated that there is legitimate scientific debate as to whether trans women have an unfair advantage over cis women. Ada stated that there is no advantage if you are taking feminizing HRT, and I provided scientifc evidence that this is not true. Sure, I shouldn’t have said she was blatantly lying, but there is significant evidence suggesting that even with feminizing HRT trans women still have an advantage over cis women. Others, like LucyLastic have accused me of making stuff up by changing the goal posts to only post op trans women being trans women and curiously no moderator has reminder her of following beehaws rules. 3.) I didn’t bring up problems with the regulating bodies because I wasn’t trying to start a fight over trans women not being included in physical sports, and was not making any statements for or against it, only again that there is legitimate debate about it. Because there is. The only thing I have argued is that HRT does not eliminate the effects of testosterone on the body especially if the woman undergoing HRT did so after puberty.

The IOC is not the only body governing inclusion in sports, and the IOC has not required surgery at all since 2015. But sure I’m the one saying bs.

I really enjoyed tribes ascend for a little bit. But nothing will ever compare to tribes 1 and 2.

Shazbot!

The estrogen treatment regimens used in transgender women aim to lower testosterone levels to within the female range (<1 nmol/L) [52]. However, hormone therapy alone has met limited success in suppressing testosterone levels, with many transgender women failing to achieve the desired level. In recent studies of transgender women, one quartile failed to achieve any significant suppression [53] and one-third failed to suppress testosterone levels despite achieving desired estradiol levels [54]. Another study reported that only 49% of transgender women showed suppressed testosterone concentrations after 6 months or more of estrogen with the addition of antiandrogen therapy [55]. Notably, Jarin and colleagues show that testosterone levels in transgender women decreased significantly from former male levels, however nearly all participants maintained their testosterone levels above the female range [56]. Whether elite transwoman athletes experience the same difficulties in suppressing testosterone levels with estrogen therapy has not been reported.

No, I’m really not making things up. This is actual scientific fact.

You mean like division 1 champion lia Thomas?

I have it on good authority that the writers of the NYT have also read other news papers before. This blatant IP theft goes deeper than we could have ever imagined.

Yeah but that’s dumb (I know you aren’t agreeing with it) because trans women are women. It’s not like being in swimming where having gone through puberty as a male gives you an unfair advantage.

Lmao yeah it was don’t know why I was thinking it was trek.

I used to be a wobbly. Had to resign after my previous manager was fired and I was left with a choice. Step up or we bring in someone else. I knew that if I stepped up I could use my position to advocate for my employees and did so all the way up to me being let go because I wouldn’t stop fighting for them even after my boss would try and get me to fall in line. I hated that I needed to quit the wobblies to do so, but honestly I believe firmly I did more for my people doing that then being in the wobblies.

I can’t remember what series it is, but one of the newer series has a scene where someone is asking why the federation won’t give them replicator tech. And the federation dude basically lays out how replicator tech before society is ready leads to oppression not liberation. That humanity only got replicator tech after they already came together and threw off the old ways. Replicator tech didn’t lead to socialism for them. Socialism lead to replicator tech.

See, I can see the arguments for this for like physical sports. And to be clear I fully support trans people but I can understand how being born male can give you certain advantages in physical sports that make it unfair towards women who were born female. I don’t know the right answer for how to handle it, but I can see how the complaints make sense.

But fucking chess? Come on what the hell advantage do people amab have over cis women in chess? This is bigotry pure and simple.

And lots of opportunities for them to be ignored or fired. Devs can complain all they want but at the end of the day we have to do what our bosses order us to do.

The vast majority of them probably never played the game in the first place.

I’ve never been much for crpgs (I do play DND though) and haven’t gotten very far into the game because it’s hot as balls right now in the PNW, but from the bit I have played it is very fun.

If you use rust and structure your program correctly you can avoid debugging directly by building unit tests in language the verify behavior. Debugging tools are great and I look forward to better dx stories there (you can use chrome + DWARF to debug your native code) but strictly speaking it isn’t necessary most of the time.

The language best suited for wasm is easily rust. And you can still interface with the Dom using frameworks like yew sycamore or leptos.

Debugging is still a little tricky but you can debug wasm in chrome and DWARF allows you to have source maps that map to your rust code. This is s problem the community is working to improve. Until then you have the full power of console log which is how a large portion of developers already debug their applications.
