Someone got lost on their way to their 2017 reenactment session

What is 'Good' software in your book, let alone great?

Comparing languages with types to languages without types is like comparing conservatism to liberalism. Less rules = more change. How much of your newfound liking for typescript ca…

Never since I'm not American, but if I were I'd use a calculator. I think this is primarily bad for kids who have to do miles to feet conversion in math problems. It could even be …

I agree, but the odds of switching the default base to either is extremely low.

It's not great. We have a base 10 number system so everything should be in powers of 10. Not too familiar with my 528 multiplication tables.

This comment is not going to look great when/if the term 'Han Supremacy' becomes recognized as hate speech

Sorry, my han supremacy leaked through. I would have just spray-painted the han supremacy equivalent of a swastika onto a few walls, but there's no such thing. No Chinese KKK to jo…

You referring to hanzi as kanji is more or less the same as someone referring to a chinese person as a japanese person.

First of all, you're looking for the word 'equivalent', not corollary. Secondly, a talented lawyer could make a convincing legal argument for anything. The holocaust was legal. So …

Okay, but in this case I'm not saying there's whataboutism in your argument. The point I'm trying to make is that if you're powerful enough, you can make human rights abuses and th…

Download the league client if you want to be scared straight about ember. Resource usage gradually ramps up until by the 5th game the client is using more RAM than the game itself.…

The problem is not past sins, its past sins that have yet to be atoned for. Conditions for Native Americans are still inexcusable up to this day.

Be real. They don't/didn't

lots of prisoners, shortage of labour, this also sounds like the US-Mexico border and the shortage of farm workers

but, but, muh data!

How did we go from 'more lenient war indemnities' and 'false flag operations are bad' to German and Ottoman occupation?

DAMN! What a beautiful curb your ____ moment! The British did more empire building in 2-3 hundred years than the Chinese did in a millennium!

Supposedly educated? That pretense has all but fallen off. The only difference between here and reddit is that people THINK they're educated.

'Pale in comparison' is kind of icky sounding...

Wow! Did you google that all by yourself! Impressive! A+! You're about 0.5% of the way there to being qualified enough to lecture somebody about their own country!

Throwing rocks from a glass house. Not sure how these claims can be made while the Native Americans languish in poverty and alcoholism.

You're not addressing the point about immigration laws not being universally recognized as moral and just. What about child migrants? You're meaning to tell me that its morally jus…

Just another way for criminals to excuse themselves of their crimes. Imagine if you said this to a black person in the context of slavery

What is the difference in real terms between the border camps and forced labour camps? The labour? Taking bets that these camps introduce forced labour like the Nazi camps did. Odd…
