There are about 350 million people in the States. DHS wants to deport 100 million of them. This is not about immigration, this is about skin tone.

I wondered why Trump did the insane Venezuela thing. Now I see.

Release the unredacted Epstein files, you pedo pedo-protector.

Tesla’s after sales care is well known to be awful. I want buttons in my EV, and brands like Nissan still have them in some models.

There are other reasons people have gone off Tesla.

Except that the things you’re blaming him for are things that David Cameron and his government cheerfully did, not Mark Carney.

He kept the stock market from crashing quite as badly when he was in charge of the UK’s independent central bank, so you cam argue that he protected the rich, but that’s exactly what he was paid to do. It was the conservative government, that took all the money away from the people, not Mark Carney.

As independent governor of the Bank of England he had power to chair the decision making board over interest rates and to do quantitative easing.

The impoverishment of the poor and removal of support was the policy of the (separate) Tory and libdem coalition government up to 2015 and Tory government from 2015.

Chill out.

You are getting very cross indeed over a joke.

If there’s advanced calculus, there’s presumably also regular calculus, so at what point does calculus start to be advanced?

I seem to upvote posts about 10 times as much as I downvote them, but comments only about 5 times as much. I need to get upvoting more comments.

dress code

Ours says something like “Formal suits and ties are not required, but colleages should be dressed appropriately for the workplace, and whether you are customer facing or not, you should not dress inappropriately casually.” which is nice because I find ties uncomfortable, but there’s a grey area a mile wide there that I would rather there weren’t.

In practice, this means that crocs, shorts, mini skirts, loud shirts and crop tops all get called out by the boss, but he seems no more willing than I am to call out a low neckline in public, and I don’t know whether that’s because he doesn’t mind, doesn’t care, didn’t like getting criticised in the past for noticing, or secretly likes low necklines.

I’m certainly not bringing it up in AOB any year soon. I’ve overheard the “well you shouldn’t have been looking” conversion enough in the past to know how some folk react to bring asked to tone it down somewhat.

I feel like this is the first step towards women being forced to wear hijabs.

I feel like you blew my point completely out of proportion, out of context, and out of the world of reasonable debating points.

As a reasonably unattractive middle aged man, I do wish that some of the people in my workplace wouldn’t wear low necklines. I am fully aware that I’m not supposed to look and that my eyes aren’t the target of the clothing choices. I think it’s very rare indeed that I do look, but I can’t help but notice, ALL THE TIME I’m interacting with whoever it is. I find it very distracting and would rather not be distracted from the issue at hand. What I look at is under my conscious control, but my sexuality isn’t.

Someone in the comments mentioned that men should know not to stare from simple polite social etiquette. Yes. I know this. I live this. But if you’re talking social etiquette, I think you have to accept that it’s possible to be inappropriately dressed for the workplace. Wear whatever you like while you’re out in the evening, out in the street, out shopping, but while we’re at work, while I have no choice over who I interact with or for how long, please dress in a less distracting way.

Sorry if that makes you feel objectified or controlled, and I don’t want to make anyone unhappy, but also I don’t want to spend our planning meeting trying to ignore your breats.

But yeah large python codebases turn into spaghetti really quickly.

I can confirm this statement.

What on earth is the point of that? I know the borrow checker is hard to please and hard to learn, but surely memory safety is the main point of rust? You may as well write in C.

Thank you

I don’t understand what the triple r, circle l and lazy q mean.

I have absolutely no idea whatsoever.

Or 11 - the last digit could be X (for ten) if they were using the modulo 11 check digit system.
