People want pieces of art made by actual humans. Not garbage from the confident statistics black box.

What the fuck is with the person in the email chain implying not all drivers can be written in Rust? Rust does literally everything C can, nothing stopping you from using unsafe properly to achieve that.

Do note that regardless of content it ends by being an ad for the company / project.

The context is that the rates of left handedness skyrocketed when they stopped forcing kids to be right handed in schools / culturally / at home. The implication naturally being woah turns out a bunch of people were always LGBTQ and now that society empowers them to be who they are, they act in accordance with themselves.

The Hulu logo preroll/interstitial isnt an ad but it uses the same system. I imagine they only mean ads in live TV offerings.

The disingenuous phrasing is like "pro life" instead of what it is, "anti-choice"

Worth noting that iirc the lorax doesn't actually do anything except speak up for those who needed help and protection. He didn't win immediately but his efforts weren't in vain. The lorax (or at least the movie?) shows you many ways you can be a part of changing the world. You dont have to be Ted, you don't have to be the Lorax, you don't have to be granny norma, or Ted's love interest, or the people who spoke up first when Ted planted the tree. All of these people made the world better with their own contribution. You should consider it, though.

Both parties this both parties that, why don't you try using both sides of your own brain.

So self important of Americans to just ignore the rest of the world and the countries that have existed much longer than them. Just like the way they invent bullshit qualifiers to claim they "have the oldest government".
