Come on, don't bug the old man. He's just trying to catch a few winks between "old man yells at clouds" rants.

Hong Kong was always going to happen because that was an agreed upon conclusion. China violated promises that it made (one country, two systems my ass), but Hong Kong was a part China. Taiwan has never been under the control of the current government of mainland China. At this point Taiwan would likely be a separate country if it didn't have China's dagger at its throat telling it that even a breath of declaring independence will result in immediate invasion.

Criticize it if you want, but the Soleimani assassination wasn't political violence. He was a top ranking military leader who arranged terrorist operations that killed a lot of people.

Yeah, it was super fucked.

Nazi Germany, we pass law, now super safe for Jews!

Blahaj cannot speak, therefore Blahaj cannot give consent.

Why you torture blahaj?

It wouldn't necessarily just be burner phones. Many people wouldn't want to take a valuable phone traveling in case it gets stolen. Or maybe their phone isn't compatible with the US's networks.

Come on, don't give them objectively terrible advice.

And the Tories were coming in for criticism for it. They basically did a run around the courts, which previously told them in no uncertain terms that Rwanda did not qualify as a safe country for asylum seekers.

It's not included in the final build artifact. It's a Gradle plugin.

Statements by the Biden administration opposing youth gender affirming surgical procedures were mentioned. I have seen commentary elsewhere that this is fairly uncommon. Can someone clear this up?

Are we replacing infrastructure or are we just adding capacity?

They are ultimately going to wind up as one and the same. We need to add more capacity before we can rid ourselves entirely of fossil fuel. Using grid power for things like HVAC, cooking, and electric vehicles means those devices get more CO2 efficient as the grid generation gets more efficient.

What is this number if you exclude China?

According to this source, largely unchanged. China's a touch above the average, but relies heavily on fossil fuel, with a large share of that being very dirty coal. Its campaign to install renewables is encouraging, though.

maybe she respected your input on the way the task got done

This is when I knew I was starting to really learn how to do my current job, when people came to me with questions instead of the other way around. It took about two years, but it was a nice shift.

If they really wanted to overthrow shit, why didn’t they come strapped?

Multiple people had firearms at the 1/6 coup attempt, this is well documented. I'm not sure why they never shot anyone, but it wasn't for lack of firearms.

What a stupid, stupid thing to do. Trump is all but assured to win at this point.

It's all good

His mother died at 92, so don't hold your breath or you'll go first.

Military campaign?

I love OSM in so many ways, but unfortunately its address resolver is kinda garbage compared to Google Maps. For example, the string "10392 SE 23, portland, or, usa" correctly resolves to what I meant, "10392 SE 23rd Ave, Milwaukie, OR, USA" in Google Maps. OSM needs the exact city (Milwaukie is a suburb of Portland) and the "rd" on 23 to resolve.

Yeah, some of the computer science theory I learned occasionally comes in handy when I'm reasoning about problems or when I'm picking apart some spec. My husband who attended a code school instead is a perfectly apt developer, but he struggles more. College also just gave me the time and resources to get a survey of knowledge outside of formal coursework. On the job, I tend to go more in-depth on topics closely related to the job.
