The general strike is a sad, obvious myth solely to delude us tax-cattle that we will have power, one day, for a day. Something something workers something bosses something something struggle. Bullshit for peasant workers.
"general strike" needs to be thrown in the same box as "communism" and "democracy" and "representation".
I agree the old bikini-only rules were problematic. The sport has been moving away from that - FIVB now allows one-pieces, tank tops, and shorts for women.
On MyNextCamp, I show whatever dress code info the organizer publishes (if any). If you see outdated or concerning requirements, that's worth flagging to the organizer directly - or choosing a different camp.
When I was at school I wrote an essay on Beethoven's life. Beethoven's third symphony, the "Eroica" is important in that it is a marker of the start of the Romantic era (his first two symphonies are straight out 'Classical').
The maybe six times I mentioned it, the third symphony, I managed to each time accidentally title the work the "Erotica". Such is being a high-school student.
Wow. A innocent Apple developer's life is effectively destroyed by Apple's inability to get their gift-card numbers straight. A technical glitch and EVERYTHING is gone.
The victim:
> I have literally written the book on Apple development (taking over the Learning Cocoa with Objective-C series, which Apple themselves used to write, for O’Reilly Media, and then 20+ books following that). I help run the longest-running Apple developer event not run by Apple themselves, /dev/world. I have effectively been an evangelist for this company’s technology for my entire professional life. We had an app on the App Store on Day 1 in every sense of the world.
The response:

Apple leaned on lobste.rs and

Twenty years of a faithful Apple Devloper's life casually destroyed by Apple, and "time to self host I suppose".
Trust neither Apple (ever, of course) nor the public.
Some degree of effort is required to _not_ use et (Ephemeris Time) and, by practice, a spacecraft clock adjustment (SCLK) would be initially loaded.
The developers would have gone through this routine (initially load SCLK, use Ephemeris Time) literally _thousands_ of times in their coding, developing ... preparing, making .... careers. It's the SPICE baby.
