I imagine adding -- so it becomes tar -caf archive.tar.bz2 -- "$@" would fix that specific case

But yeah, putting bash in a position where it has more rights than the user providing the input is a really bad idea

I don't disagree with your point, but how does set -e break conditionals? I use it all the time without issues

Pipefail I don't use as much so perhaps that's the issue?

Get a better boss

Russia has been doing a lot of hybrid war shit lately, even if you disregard the civilian airliners they've shot down, so I find it at least plausible that they might plan things like this

I can see how it's extra sensitive, given the genocide

oh yeah, as an academic term it's probably useful

I think there's a mix. I get the impression that cultural appropriation as a thing to be offended about is well past its peak and dying out, but back when it was popular I knew people in real life angry about these things. Not bad people either... well meaning people who spent a bit too much time online and didn't think things through themselves.

That's really interesting! Nice sounding instrument

If I had and it was that easy, we wouldn't have this neverending stream at someone getting offended because someone did something associated with a culture they don't have obvious blood ties to.

I think there is asshole behaviour that could be described as cultural appropriation, but I think the vast majority of them also fit under "exploitation" or "racism".

It's also apparent that if you tell people "cultural appropriation is bad", you get pretty silly outcomes. Suddenly you have protests because a restaurant serves sushi without being ethnically japanese, or someone yells at you because you post a photo of a california roll.

Given those examples I should probably go have lunch

Zuckerberg reportedly decided to do away with censorship mechanisms at Meta after a seemingly innocuous photo that he posted on Facebook in November 2023 about the surgery that was performed on his left anterior cruciate ligament failed to go viral,

pathetic

negative and unrealistic stereotype

which would just be racism really

The concept of cultural appropriation seems to be pretty useless in practice.

The cases I've encountered where it makes some bit of sense fit better under the concepts of racism or exploitation. The complaints about cultural appropriation online seem to more often attack innocent behaviour or someone genuinely appreciating another culture.

Drink tea, make tacos, wear a kimono, don't be an asshole
