I said Darth Cheeto's executive orders were less rooted in law than what's come before and you think I support him? WTF? I said your statement supported the position you were replying to. That's not support, that's telling you you're supporting something almost, though not quite, as bad.

For the rest, I am pro-immigration (even asylum) but anti-unlawful immigration. I don't hold against people that they want better lives and will use any excuse to obtain them, but I do hold against people when they are responsible for upholding the law and not only fail to do so but subvert it (and then claim that they had nothing to do with creating the crisis). Yes, I hold that against both parties equally, and yes, that applies to where we are in terms of the economy, Iran, etc. I am not being partisan here.

"They just concluded that at some point this year, the equation ceased to give meaningful results because the predicted population shot toward infinity. That was their doomsday."

Earths population has clearly shAt towards doomsday instead.

"We couldn't get a law through congress so we did something questionably legal via executive order" is reinforcing the point being made by the grandparent (which, FWIW, I don't fully agree with. Many of Trump's executive orders are clearly less rooted in law than what's come before).

By the way, funny that you mention Sen. Kennedy in the context of immigration reform, who rather famously said: "This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forth an amnesty bill like this." Yet here we are.

Washington Irving? Ambrose Bierce? Mark Twain?

Can't tell if we should moderate the article as Troll or Flamebait.

Commenters have already pointed out the dishonesty of the prose based on their own published stats.

Yes, I'm enabling the clickbait by commenting.

As I told you clearly, not changing the clock kills MORE people.

So fuck yourself.

JPEG-XL is a good format but I just realized yesterday that Google Docs on Android doesn't support inserting a webp image a decade after Google was pushing it. I had one from a website and needed to run it through imagemagick first.

Android supports it, all the apps using android image primitives supoort it, but one of Google's flagship apps still doesn't.

We used move much faster thirty years ago. If an app supported say GIF, PNM, and TGA when JPEG came out it was supported in the next release.

Hopefully this round will be better. It's probably a management problem ... maybe they will listen to their chatbot since they don't listen to their engineers.

Careful, you'll have terrified mathematicians crying about pathological monsters.

Same experience for me. I remember a slow day in the office back in 99 or 2000 (we'd just shipped a release) we got into an argument about typing speeds so set up typing tests for the whole team. My "my fingers never actually sit on the home keys, my hands relocate from time to time, and most of my typing is with three or four fingers and a thumb" ass clocked over 100wpm to the incredulity of the rest of the team.

Natural keyboards feel decidedly unnatural to me, because my hands always want to be somewhere they don't fit.

I have. Generally fall into two buckets: the ones that did everything themselves and learned, or the ones that only have a school education. The former generally know what they're talking about, the latter often have huge gaps in their knowledge. But that's true of the devs I interview, too, so I wouldn't place that stigma on the windows admins.

"Met" as in face to face? No, not really, but I've been on a lot of phone calls with the men who do the needful. Again, this ain't a windows thing.

If you had any critical thinking skills, you'd realize that my original point applies not only to keeling over, but also to feeling unwell.

More feeble people would suffer throughout the year with either permanent DST or standard time than the current one bad night in March. (Which, BTW, could be totally avoided by planning ahead and adjusting your bedtime a few minutes per day in the preceding week.)

Biology matches DST adjustments more than a fixed clock. Most everyone woke up with the sun from the dawn of humanity until the late 19th century, and adjusting the clock for the seasons stays closer to that.

Your use of the word "most" did not go unnoticed, and I am fully aware that the plural of "anecdote" is not "data." With that said, I have met plenty of people just like me in my career. I do not believe that "most" people running Windows shops" are "stupid and incapable." Some certainly are, but I've met plenty of dumb *IX people, too, especially back in the 90s.

I've met my share of assholes, too. Just saying.

Then I suggest you never travel east or west by more than a few miles. You seem feeble.

Come the fuck on.

In my career, I have worked (professionally) with Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, Linux, OS/2, SCO ODT/OSR, a bunch of shit I can't remember, and every Microsoft server platform since NT4. My current environment is 98% Microsoft. That doesn't make me stupid and incapable, that's just where my career took me.

Is... English not your first language? I ask because you appear to be way overthinking this.

The metaphor was perfectly clear to me when I read it.
