Nothing can be prevented entirely online, but empowering users with the tools to choose their own experience and tailor their feed with the communities and users they choose themselves is a giant step in the right direction.
Reddit chose the path of consolidation and central control, and the results were inevitable.
Even if you discount all other forms of taxation, and only focus on income taxes, the sentiment is irrelevant to this particular vote.
His support appears to be concentrated in the middle class. (Median household income in NYC is about 80k, right about the peak of his vote share)
Martavius Garantus Hawthorne IV is my real name, officer.
They always find a way to pronounce “DEI” with a hard R.
Ha, T1 is so outdated, his team doesn’t even know it’s an existing slow standard.
It’s like naming your new gold-plated “luxury” car brand “Horse & Buggy.”
This is the answer. I would put the ‘nuclear death in a bottle’ type sauces on everything in my 20s. Switched to more normal hot sauce in my 30s. Since 40, even that has to be done in moderation. My fridge is full of hot sauces gifted to me that I won’t touch, but the extended family still thinks I like.
This is why subject matter experts matter. Support for the vague idea of “deport people here illegally” is pretty high, but any specific method of actually doing it is much more unpopular. Media is essential in getting that distinction out to the laypeople, but they’ve largely failed.
And I’d argue that it’s not just immigration where this disconnect exists. Lots of policies have broad support until you start talking about specifics. People just want to “get things done” but the “how” is either boring or unsavory.
Ban dihydrogen monoxide!
I was in high school when the Simpsons was still pretty new, and there was some popular Bart t-shirt at the time that got the word “hell” banned on any clothing.
All while the school mascot is the Blue Devil.
As someone with mild travel anxiety, I’d probably be the one with the vision. And even if not, it would make a good excuse to skip the trip and stay home like I wanted to do in the first place.
See also: census designated places, a collection of people with no formal town incorporation/government. My dad grew up in a “town” (CDP) of about 250 residents. It’s about a half hour drive from the nearest real town, for things like groceries and hospitals.
Between “port” “starboard” “right” and “left” only two of the words have the same number of letters.
Left = Port
For the once per year I have to think about this, that’s my mnemonic.
The ninth wind is the strongest.
Depends on the meter, dude. There are thermo-meters, speedo-meters, baro-meter…
I thought that was a little strange, but after looking it up, it’s probably a defensible phrasing.
He was only convicted of two murders, while the definition of “serial killer” is three+ murders (plus some other qualifiers). The list of other killings he was suspected of doing, but which were never proven or convicted, would put him in the serial killer category. So it’s fair, in a journalistic sense, to say he was “an accused serial killer.”
He literally doesn’t believe in germs.
The way she not only says the number, but pauses and makes sure everyone is paying attention… I’m thinking she is just that god damned stupid.
There isn’t an issue on earth that he doesn’t see as transactional.
“I make money for you, you cover my ass” is his one and only worldview. Whether or not anyone else explicitly agrees to that deal is irrelevant. He simply can’t even imagine a world where that isn’t the default that everyone has.
The question is basically answered now, so I’ll just drop this video here for some additional context about Microsoft’s history of trying to build a file system that solves the problem, and the challenges they faced even in the early XP days:

tl;dw: MS tried to understand the context of each file, not just the name. Once you add dozens of pieces of metadata to each of tens of thousands of files (even 20+ years ago), the whole system became too difficult for them to properly index and manage efficiently.
