LjLi remember the PM or someone else in the government *briefly* mentioning it00:00
ryoumaimported befcause they oppose the gov?00:00
ryoumaable to ber*00:00
LjLby basically saying, the Constitution protects freedom of movement, but it also protects citizens' health, and in cases like these where two provisions of the Constitution clash, we have to decide which one has priority, and we say health does00:00
LjLryouma, no, imported because they are inspired by similar protests in the US and elsewhere, and i am not sure Italy would have had them if we hadn't gotten resonance of those protests from abroad00:01
ryoumaso it is just copycat?00:01
LjLhave we ever had any original ideas independent of America? ;)00:02
LjLno, really, i don't know, i think the whole mask business was handled so badly at a worldwide level, that there was *bound* to be a seed of confusion that would grow into a tree of, uhm, crap00:02
LjLbut Italy may be too provincial to have come up with anti-mask protests of its own. i may be wrong.00:03
ryoumai guess i should just talk about masks not lockdowns00:04
ryoumawear your mask.  jsut do it.  perhaps the white house is the antichrist.  the coronavirus is a plot by coronavirus genes to spread coronavirus.  somebody please hack that tweeter account and say those things.00:05

LjLtinwhiskers, in case you care to know, if you remember that Retraction Watch article that was posted with the rather perplexing title of "Heard about the study claiming men who carry guitar cases are more attractive? It’s been retracted." the reason it was posted here is it contains the word "cases" :P02:16
LjLthat may be too generic a keyword02:17
tinwhiskersohhh. heh02:17
tinwhiskersI wouldn't worry about a few false positives. Nobody will die.02:17
LjLright, it's with the false negatives that people die02:18
tinwhiskers:-)02:18
LjLbut i'm trying to reduce the Brainstorm clutter a little to strike a balance, so maybe i can try "new cases". and i'm still sort of tempted to axe CNBC02:18
LjLamong other reasons... the way the RSS stuff in my bot works (intentionally, but it may have been better suited for other channels and it's hard to change now), if two articles that would both qualify to get posted are published in the same Brainstorm "time slot" (the 5 minutes or so frequency it checks for new stuff), it only posts one02:20
LjLthat means that if, for example, CNBC is filling up all the space, we may miss some Retraction Watch articles02:20
tinwhiskersah. any way to rank them?02:21
LjLno :\02:21
LjLi'd have to change the dictionary into some other data structure02:21
tinwhiskersah02:21
LjLand that would have implication throughout the module so it's tricky02:21
tinwhiskerssounds like a good plan then02:21
LjLit's an old module, i wrote it before i was fluent with OOP in Python, so it's all pretty... raw02:22
