Actually, only the demo car up front and close had different wheel caps. The car that accelerated was similar looking than the one that flew.

It was a clearly different unit, look at the wheel caps.

That's not an effect. As both in the case of a dividedend and a stock buy back, the company's market cap drops by the amount of cash that's being distributed out, creating an identical re-buying situation in market cap-weighted index funds. Stock price itself is irrelevant for index fund rebalances (unlike for shareholder returns).

\b \B
? +

{n,m} for counting matches
(...) capturing
Except that these don't work in macOS/BSD sed (even with -E flag):- \w, \W, \s, \S - need to use POSIX classes instead: [[:alnum:]], [^[:alnum:]], [[:space:]], [^[:space:]]
- \b - need to use use [[:<:]] (word start) and [[:>:]] (word end) instead
- \B - (not a word start/end) no alternatives

It's not documented, but unfortunately neither of these re-signs the commits even if GPG signing is configured. They are based on `git replay`, and that doesn't sign either (at least yet).

You don't seem to get the point. That is only universal in current day English. In e.g. Finnish: miljoona = 1e6, miljardi = 1e9, biljoona = 1e12, triljoona = 1e18.

Re:Diamonds Suck
on Monday November 13, 2023 @04:19AM (#38248436)
The [artificial] scarcity and [unjustifiably] high price are properties of almost all luxury goods. And those are exactly what makes them (watches, handbags, diamonds etc.) so desirable to many.
But I fully agree that spending two months gross salary on an engagement ring is way too much, and I would never ever get into debt for that. But, similarly as I enjoy wearing a relatively useless but expensive watch daily, I didn't mind dropping approx. 2/3 of a month's net salary on my fiancé's diamond engagement ring, which she got to choose and now cherishes and admires every day.
