Conversely I hate the trend in English language to keep the original pluralization rules when adopting words from other languages. Just anglicize it to "alumnuses" or "alumnis" (if you want that to be the singular). Rules of the original language don't matter any more when you use it in English.

imo, permaban should be reserved for bots and spam accounts. and people committing crimes using the platform.
everyone else max 30 days, but no limits how many times you can get banned if you keep repeating the bad behaviour
1 bedroom, 1 living room joined to kitchen, 1 bathroom. Living alone. I hate the place but I locked in a good price when I signed the contract, it would be 50% more now.

Chat GPT is wonderful as a search engine for SO. It regurgitates the answers in a format easier to incorporate into your own project.
The thing I'm worried about is a lack of new answers. You need data to train an LLM, what to do if nobody is producing it?

Burnout is a bitch, speaking from experience. One way out is to radically change your lifestyle. Whether it turns out good or bad in the long term is very individual
Comparing and ranking peoples suffering is in a really bad taste. By establishing a hierarchy of victimization you're sending a message to some that their problems don't matter because someone else has a bigger problem. Also you're reinforcing the division between groups and reinforcing negative stereotypes, without offering a stable long-term solution for a society without injustice.
The current narrative at least on social media like Lemmy, Reddit, TikTok, etc is of the "equal but separate" variety. Injustices exist and we must protest, we must fight for the underprivileged, but the lines of division between groups are sacred and must not be questioned.
The actual long-term goal should be the merging of groups in which the former out-group becomes part of the in-group. This idea is offensive to many which is why it's so hard to achieve.
I suspect US economy is in a much worse state than it's obvious just looking at the numbers. Most of my contact with Americans is with relatively well-off people working in the tech industry. And even they are feeling serious financial constraints. I can't imagine how the rest is doing.
