His two previous impeachments don't seem to have slowed him down, so it seems unlikely that a third would be any different. Not to mention his felony conviction.

I can't say as I'm not familiar with Preact signals, but I do know the Angular team brought on the author of SolidJS to implement signals in Angular. Though I think I remember read…

I did the same and had the same suspicion. If that's actually the case, the ideas and the writing don't change, but it changes how you feel about it doesn't it? Which brings up som…

Just barely. Had the military been just a bit more indoctrinated, they may have started shooting. Which, as far as I understand, were the instructions they received. If nothing els…

While it's true that there are U.S. states where it's illegal, there are many places (maybe most?) where it's not. Presumably due to the fact that it's near impossible to prove in …

I think you misunderstood the parent comment. The first part reads as if you're replying to a different comment, I don't see how you could come to that conclusion based on what was…

Scrolling down, I see that they apparently also sell hoodies for $130USD (not including tax and shipping). Literal insanity

Not sure if you're being sarcastic, considering the link you provided has a chart showing the progressive debasement of roman currency, but they definitely had inflation. https://e…

Honestly. They want to earn back people's trust, so they figure the best way to do that is with good ol' gaslighting. Thing is, it'll probably work. At least to some extent. The ir…

Seems like you're implying that harmful stereotypes either: don't exist, aren't actually harmful, or are the "truth"? If, when given the text "[MASK] is a female job", a language m…

I wonder if it has something to do with a cultural perception of how life and the world in general is perceived. As in, "He's currently experiencing his first year of life" vs. "He…
