  • Not exactly. OCD can also lead to disgust or discomfort besides anxiety, if things aren’t like they “should” be. OCD doesn’t mean there’s an actual real danger involved.

    Double checking your keys or stove can also just be a compensation because you have actual experience of forgetting to take care of things.

    While anxiety as an emotion can come up in different contexts doesn’t mean it’s the same. Symptoms and behavior can overlap even if the underlying condition or disorder is different.

    Lots of mental illnesses and disorders will lead to additional other psychological issues if not treated.



  • macOS just makes you jump through a hoop every time you run an application that’s not notarized.

    In practice that means cross platform open source projects don’t want to pay money to join apple’s developer program and set up code singing and deal with certificates.

    So after download an unsigned app, macOS refuses to start it until you go to system settings > security > and allow.

    You have to do this again after every update.

    It’s very annoying and does very little for security.




  • Jesus never asked for wars in his name though. It’s not part of his teachings.

    Christianity changed a lot once it became the dominant religion of the Roman Empire.

    However Christianity also brought a lot of positive social changes with the focus on forgiveness and helping the unfortunate for example.

    It was spread by conquest, but also peaceful friendly missionaries. These missionaries often invented a writing system for the illiterate people they visited.
