Perhaps. On the other hand, she played a role in escalating the situation. It took a doctor stepping in to find out why the woman was being held upside down.
Context should be an important factor when deciding to intervene and how to intervene. If I encountered such a situation in a hospital, I would have interpreted it as unusual and beyond my comprehension, but it would not have struck me as an intent to cause harm. People tend to go to a hospital for help. Those who hurt others in a hospital would likely do so through violence.
I'm not suggesting that she should not have intervened, but she (and the security guard) should have understood the situation first.
You have read the title and know the woman is not being harmed. You probably don't have to deal on a daily basis with drugged and mentally unstable people, unlike someone who works in an emergency room.

I don't live in an area with any BLM protests. Instead our boring town has started to freak out about mythical child nappers. Cars have been searched and people have been beaten up by there over reactive types. Different politics, same attitudes.
Too little, too late, *nix filesystem directory structure is a legacy mess and plenty program not respecting the xdg spec, so the poor HaikuPorters needs to patch everything to stop littering the $HOME folder.
I don't care if there any pre-defined quicklaunch icons on the starting page in your browser after install, but could you stop adding/readding unwanted elements to it? I don't have facebook, why on earth are you adding it back after every update? Is this normal? What would you think if i would always mess with your stuff without asking just because i can? No, you aren't supposed to mess with my stuff, so please leave my startpage alone.
I am not searching for workarounds, i can always put the browser onto RO disk or use an own, handcrafted html startpage, but do i really have to use workarounds just to be able to use your product without frustration? What about not using your product at all?
(Image is just for reference to know what i meant.)
>The ideals of Haiku are great but is anyone using it consistently? If they are what workflows benefit from Haiku's feature set?
I do, but maybe i am not the best everyday example with my ~20 years user experiences with BeOS and Haiku and do development/porting for Haiku. I use on a dedicated Haiku laptop and planing to switch to Haiku on my main system too, the only roadblock is the external-display support. After it gets enabled (i have intel based system) i will switch completely.
>I'm curious if anyone is actually using Haiku features in some non-trivial way, e.g.
All the files coming from packages have an own attribute which identifies the parent package, so it is extremely easy to find from which package the questioned file comes from. For example.
I have to frequently search for existing recipes, i use bash to craft me a search query. I definetely could use `find` instead.
I like that i have no email client, so if i need to search for a mail on a busy covered desktop i don't have to hunt for the mail-client icon on the taskbar i just click on the desktop where it visible between all the windows, Alt-F > type what i want > ENTER.
I really like the virtual-desktop handling, S&T, etc., so long story short: i like so how it is.
I am waiting for the next big thing, where the 3rdparty programs comes as a virtual machine image with a complete OS in it, with own kernel for maximal platform-independency.
Isn’t this kind what java is already? And also if there is another OS running in this VM, this would lead to less efficient executables as you’d have to partition resources
like mem
What should we do with people like this?
