It shouldn’t be considered to be “new”, since we’ve all been operating for decades in the assumption that we’ve had this right, but apparently not: the right to privacy.

“Final”

What, again?

I could imagine someone on lots of drugs being giddy at a moment like this (probably not a long lasting giddiness though).

But no amount of drugs could account for the extra leg and extendo arm.

My favorite part is the implication that if you give birth to an UNhealthy baby, you just naturally be good to go back to work right away, and not like, sitting outside the NICU 24/7.

I’m not saying it being a YouTube parasite is a BAD thing. But as long as it’s primarily getting it’s views from people who started watching on YouTube first, “parasite” is an apt description.

I’m not saying he has a chance in hell of winning a majority of voters in the general election. Only that Republicans are still under his thrall.

He is still leading 2024 Republican primary polls by a WIDE margin. They absolutely do not “know he’s done”.

Link seems broken. But also… doesn’t he already have an indictment from Jack Smith? Is this old news or is it about an additional indictment?

Nebula is making good inroads. It’s well positioned to (eventually) make a shift from “YouTube parasite” to “YouTube alternative”.

Math standard practices were created at a time when everyone was doing them by hand. Absolutely no one would write out “coefficient of gravity” or whatever 20 times by hand while trying to solve a physics equation.

Single letter variable names were common in early programming for basically the same reason, only with typing.

Ever since the proliferation of autocomplete and intellisense in programming IDE’s, typing a 4-word-long variable name has become a few key letters and then hitting tab. Ever since then, code readability has trumped the desire to type out fewer letters.

So just like all startups then
