Considering how the plans for the counterattack were leaked by everyone and their mom last year, this time they did the right thing with secrecy.

Nooooo! What about square cube law? How could there be giants without built-in oxygen concentrator packs on their backs?

The fact that the arms and the rings are not connected to the main body is kinda annoying, that thing could never be an actual living creature.

Unless the eye ring is something like clothes. Is it held in place with magnets?

I recently used my cast iron pan to roast peanuts. 20 minutes roasting on low flame, preceded by two hours of flame torture to burn off dust and re-glassify the 60-year-old layer of burned grease.

Yeah, there is overhead. It's not so critical for Python, because I am using it for scripting and prototyping, and when I need performance, I rewrite critical code parts in C++.

The same exact thing I do with multiprocess Python, I'm not going to update all of my code.

Multiprocess approach is arguably more robust, you can't corrupt memory from another thread, because the only point of interaction you have with your other rpocesses is queue and semaphore.

It's more of an incompetency and laziness issue. Given how many bodies these lab tech receive each month, they are not performing any actual tests but simply writing whatever results they are asked.

Once someone is declared dead, and their relatives claimed inheritance, it's very hard to change that legality-wise. All your property is gone, your passport is invalid, banks won't open accounts for you.

They probably moved the wall after the toilet was already installed. That half-obscured window covered with plywood above the toilet is telling enough.
