$retVal and $item are my personal favourite.

And decent variable names if you can, as well.

No magic numbers!

Minimal supervision also could mean there’s no onboarding, no support and internal communication is awful.

Screwed is always relative.

I’m hearing chat that immigrants from places like Turkey or India are going “oh yeah this is what it’s like back home”.

So it’s possible it just goes full neoliberal (i.e. no consequences or regulations for the rich) and the division of wealth grows even further.

Provided he doesn’t cause a war or some kind of other mass-death problem (chemical spills, reactor meltdown etc) it might just have a cost primarily in human suffering, as opposed to human life.

You know it’s a sliding scale, right?

There’s not just three choices.

There’s Far-side, side-wing, side, side-leaning, center-side for both (plus center).

Then you have fiscal Vs moral lean on both sides.

“no right wing talking points” is hardly left wing.

Not left wing. Just left.

None of them are left wing (maybe Green has some left wing stuff?)

It adds a lot more legitimacy to people protesting the crimes, which is important.

I see a bit of everything on here, but I do like that voicing leftist ideals (not sure about left wing) doesn’t get you shot down immediately from all sides (as it would in a lot of other places).

I imagine that in general leftists exist, but avoid posting in other places due to the abuse they’d receive for doing so.

I like to call pair-programming sessions (for bugs) “bebuggery sessions” at work and people haven’t complained yet.

Developing countries (supposedly mainly China) just keep all their livestock on them all the time.

Which is a massive petri-dish for developing antibiotic-resistant bacteria just about as fast as you can.

Some diff tools don’t handle indentation by default.

So if you add a wrapper, it counts everything inside it as “changed”

sets the diff to ignore whitespace

Lines changed: 3

• Viewport engineer.
• Browser-space technician.
• Microsoft painter-decorator.
• Inferior decorator.
• He-who-responds (on the bugs channel).
• Scope denier.
• Manager disappointer.

I imagine it’s more about discouraging any kind of official organising or institutional support/advertising.

Dangerous for politicians to promote it, or charities to give it resources/attention.

This keeps the scale of the boycott low enough to make less of a difference.

Also I guess it tries to shift those on the side of the ban to be the “moral authority”.

This is how a lot of PR is done.

It’s how a hell of a lot of articles are written.

PR company sends in a press release, journo thinks “great, I don’t need to do any proper work today” and then turns the press release into article format.

“paper plates” more like

I’m trying out a paid Google called Kagi for a month.

It’s pretty good so far and very fast.

And no ads or SEO prioritisation, which is the key part.

Or tracking/data-retention, so they say (it’s not open source so we only have their word for it).

Ah yeah I should have specified the jokes should be not nasty or uninformed.

But I’d hope for better from someone from within the community.
