Thanks for the heads up. I was playing around in shopify and must have screwed something up.
edit: fixed now.
I get annoyed by tools like those featured here putting the language they are written in front and center like it's a defining feature about the application. The only thing that should matter (specifically with a compiled binary distributed program) is what it does and how well it does it.
My 2019 bmw has the automated ruble strips thing, which is pretty nice for long drives.
This was literally my whole point.
If you think my attitude is condescending in the scenarios presented, then you properly understood what I was trying to express in the last section.
I didn't want to write it in a way that's specifically attacking the (likely technical) reader, so I put the focus on "me"
The point I expressed in the conclusion was meant to turn the apparent condescension from the earlier part around on the reader. I'm saying that we should be more mindful of those who don't know what we know.

Ahh, the pro-fractional reserve banking system libertarians. A group that is well known as much as it is not contradictory.

I made this guide to save myself time when I’m helping new people get into software. Feel free to submit a pull request and discuss using the github system if you find something highly objectionable. I do understand that the first one is very divisive, but I’m not sure how else to get people into problem-solving and not being afraid of the terminal.
I mean of course. How much cargo could you get into a small airship?
This certainly won't be used for political purposes
I live near a walgreens with this, and the worst part about it is when the screen is broken, and it doesn't serve the basic purpose of allowing me to know what beverages are behind the window.
Actually, now that I think of it when the system is "working properly" I still can't be sure of what's behind the door if I open it.
Totally worthless use of technology.
This could be said of any service that benefits from allowing people with similar interests locate and talk with each other. I'm not a fan of Facebook, but if it wasn't Facebook it would be someone else, and if it wasn't someone else, it would be because of draconian measures taken by the state that will eventually turn on anyone who has any opinions that differ from those in charge of the state.
I hope all of your opinions exactly match the ruling powers at all times.
By the time standard oil was broken up, it had already dropped from >90% to around 60% market share and was dropping fast.
The government intervention just artificially sped up a process that was already happening.

I just received an email from HBO Max (or someone pretending to be them)"This template is used by integration tests only"I'm curious if you all have had an experience like this.
consider the following:
𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫𒐫
I just got lsp native set up last night, and I think it's great. It replaces a few manual steps and plugins that were necessary, and it seems to be pretty well integrated. I'm not sure about the performance or resource usage, but it feels pretty snappy.
5 stars to 0 stars first, then it was "like", ignore, or "dislike" and now it's going to be "like" or ignore. 5 options -> 3 options -> 2 options. I'm curious to see what comes in 5 years.
This has happened before, and is a great litmus test for something that is either very bad or very good.
When you take this theory to it's logical conclusion, you end up with some strange outcomes. The strangest is the idea of going back and killing baby Hitler. When you attempt to do that, the universe, in it's self righting ways makes the assassination attempt not work. Since Hitler is a pretty big enemy for a lot of people, many people over time try to go back and kill Hitler.
Hitler, on the other hand is just living his life as an Austrian child and young adult suffering from constant attempts on his life from people who he has no way of knowing. He gets the idea that people are always out to get him (because they are) and becomes evil, and uses the assassination attempts to justify creating the Holocaust.
Much of that stock market wealth is tied up in the retirement accounts of people who are about to retire or are retired. A large portion of it is the elites without a doubt, but much of it is just people who've been contributing to a 401k for the last 50 years. Obviously they should both be in the upper percentages of income/wealth as well as own much of the stock market. They've been contributing for years and years.
Why are there so many things these days about using some super complex cloud solution hack for something that can fundamentally be done easier and more efficiently from a cron job on a raspi zero on a home network.
curl yoursite.tld | some_script_that_parses_the_result and generates an uptime page > githubpagescontent.md; git commit -m $(get_the_current_time.sh); git push origin master
for $20, you can get the same thing with waaaay less stuff going on behind the scenes and without taking advantage of the ci resource for something it wasn't fundamentally meant for.
I think the argument you are responding to is not the one the previous user presented. This issue isn't that people are trying to maximize profit leading to issues. The problem is that there is undue government interference in the market leading to all of the negatives that come from people selfishly trying to maximize profit in a cynical way with none of the benefits of people trying to maximize profits by providing a product that people will prefer over the competition.
Whether or not you think it's true that Joe Biden won (which I'm pretty sure he did) This sets a bad precedent about wrongthing on the platform. There is literally no way to prove whether or not the election was fraudulent. The only thing you can do is look at the available evidence and draw conclusins.
To make it against the rules to look at the evidence and have a wrong opinion on what conclusions can be drawn from it is very dangerous. Think about how a policy like this would have been used in the past or how it can be used now and in the future.
"We will remove anything alleging that The President Donald Trump colluded with russia"
"We will remove anything alleging that the Chinese government is interning Uyghurs."
"We will remove anything alleging that the CIA has conducted experiments on American Citizens"
"We will remove anything alleging that President Bill Clinton had sex with anyone other than his wife"
"We will remove anything alleging that Jeffery Epstein did not commit suicide"
I feel like the strength of being misunderstood is more like the strength of being correct.
Just because other people don't understand you doesn't mean you are correct.
If you aren't correct, this post will do nothing for you but make you bull-headed and closed off to criticism.
