The company has taken action against violations of its policies, she said
What does this mean in this context? Send takedown notices to people who joke on the Internet?
I think we read different books if you think her characters were altruistic. I remember her specifically calling out altruism as a sin (compared to the virtue of selfishness).
It says “a leading cause”, not “the leading cause”. Depending on how long your list of leading causes is, anything could qualify.
I skimmed the source they linked, and it lists guns as the leading cause of death for ages 1-19. I did not see an overall list.
I would agree that a more carefully phrased sentence would have been better and less misleading.

That is irrelevant. If Trump’s behavior would cause a regular schlub to be jailed, then he should be jailed, full stop. That’s how the law is supposed to work.
I pay for YouTube. I’m mildly optimistic that this won’t make it into the paid version, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if it does.
I’ve already had to cancel Amazon Prime after they made the base tier have ads, but continued to show ads after paying extra for ad-free.
Aluminum is the fifth most common element on Earth, and is naturally present in pretty large quantities in soil.
Are you sure you aren’t confusing it with lead?
If you were as confused by this as I was:
Shortly after the vote, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce said it would sue the FTC to block the rule
The US Chamber of Commerce is a right-wing lobbying group for businesses, unrelated to the US Department of Commerce which is an actual government agency.

Hardware cloth is a metal mesh.
Then, you could take those comments, and have the compiler use them to ensure you’re using the right variable in the right place. Oh wait, we just invented a type system.
Works even better in Ruby, as the code as given is valid, you just need to monkey patch length
:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
module DayLength
def length
if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
"24 hours"
else
super
end
end
end
class String
prepend DayLength
end
day = "Monday"
x = day.length
print(x)
It could be Ruby; puts
is more common, but there is a print
. With some silly context, the answer could even be correct:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
module DayLength
def length
if ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"].include? self
"24 hours"
else
super
end
end
end
class String
prepend DayLength
end
day = "Monday"
x = day.length
print(x)
The Overton window has shifted so far right that basic decency or acknowledging facts is leftist.
I’m sorry to hear that. I think at one point in my past, about half my job was tracking down nil dereference errors in Ruby. And probably a quarter was writing tests for things a good type system would catch at compile time.
I’m waiting for Outlook (Taylor’s Version).
I assume you meant trillion and not million for those gdp figures? Even then, they’re low.
But you can delete your copy, ask others nicely to delete theirs, and refuse to accept more copies of the same thing.
I’m not sure if Lemmy supports any of this, but it seems pretty important for e.g. child porn.
Huh, my roommate makes chainmail and I’ve never had this issue. Maybe it’s a crafting quality issue, and he’s just really good at keeping the ends together?
They’re semantically different for PATCH requests. The first does nothing, the second should unset the
name
field.
