I hear they’re more common in your 60s and up.

It’s cool. I don’t usually care about people‘s names that much, and I know he doesn’t care about my name, so why does it matter.

For the most part people can call me dude and bro until the end of time at work.

Fine should be a direct cut of company value or profits. Proportional, not an absolute value.

It is, and they don’t care.

If the software crashes, so do you!

Definitely not high-performance by any means which should come as no surprise due to the limitations of GPU architecture versus CPU for some tasks, but technically fascinating.

I feel like that’s possibly a prelude to setting up a scapegoat. You can’t let people think he got away with it.

My spouse and I are so into online games that we would stare at each other like what are we supposed to even do with ourselves now?

Try sitting as a passenger while your friend takes your car for a spin.

Universe: whoops let me fix that.

Like the horror of this code is wrong but the program works.

You’re now a program manager.

I can barely tolerate guests. No way can I do that to myself let alone make someone stay with me who has no say in the matter.

Not indexing at zero seems like a waste of a perfectly good integer.

That’s a different standard. I’m not claiming that there haven’t been negative consequences, but I would hardly call the economic sanctions “backfiring.” To me, backfiring means that the action actually brought the West further away from their goal of harming Russia using nonviolent means with the sanctions.

Consider the price of oil. Having options to sell oil in more markets means you can generate more profits. Being forced into selling oil only to a smaller set of countries who are willing to purchase your product? That’s going to have economic consequences even though it does increase isolationism. I also imagine it’s quite a bit more inconvenient being an oligarch right now in the presence of sanctions.

Has there been some blowback? Sure. But I don’t think it’s backfired completely. There’s definitely been a major impact.

I don’t think the article successfully argues its main point. Sure, sanctions are galvanizing, but I believe it’s well understood that sanctioning a country is going to result in that country pursuing any other viable avenues to conduct their economic activities. It’s a stretch to say that the sanctions backfired. I would say it’s more accurate to write that the sanctions have resulted in profound consequences, and not all of them are good.

Come on that’s gotta be like half of our user base right there.

It’s OK my wife invited her friends over for a couple weeks. They’re coming to my house all on their own!

I believe back in Android N there was a move to compile all apps to native before running. Currently, Android relies on Android RunTime (ART) and it tries to keep everything performance critical in compiled code, but it’s not perfect. You do still have a JVM and there’s still garbage collection.

Hey, we need some more positivity here IMHO. Thanks for contributing even if censored bugs some people. I thought the meme was funny and it made my yesterday better in a small way.
