@maeseoki @trunarla Rejected. Code is less readable, less understandable and therefore less maintainable. (This lack of readability meant you introduced a potential bug)

@SpeaksAngie So you believe that people in the civil rights movement and people acting against the holocaust are on the same moral level as people who believe in anti-science conspiracy theories so hard that they act to bring the downfall of a democratically elected government?

@steinkobbe @elonmusk @getpaidwrite Elon’s not normal. Like most red-pilled warriors, he takes something far on the fringe and weaponises it, making it appear more popular than it really is to incite fear which leads to hatred. Much like LibsOfTikTok. It might seem like obvious trolling to us, but others believe

@lone_rides What you describe as the left going “too far” is actually the compromise position that was reached between left and right. You have described a campaign of burning the other side down, because you didn’t get what you wanted, you only lost a little, but feel entitled to always win

@BobbyAllyn It feels like a real “frat boys trying to ‘own the libs”’ move. Elon and his fans thought it was hilarious but it’s definitely going to give them some blow-back.

Almost every nation has labs that perform research on dangerous pathogens. It’s called Medical Research. Very often these are partially funded internationally because it’s in the world’s interest to prevent outbreaks. Very different from bio-weapons research, which is illegal.

@SwiftOnSecurity My first job was in data recovery and I can confirm this. But it gets even stranger. I’ve done same but then put the HD in a rotatable wooden vice, hit one end with a rubber hammer to spin the disks, then powered it up before the disks stopped spinning. Full recovery.

@ericareport The vaccines don't stop you from catching it. They make it less likely that you will die or get extreme symptoms. A secondary effect is that this makes it less likely you will pass it on and thus less likely that others catch it from you. Altruism is hard for the right.
