There is no reason to have 50 separate curriculums. The ONLY reason that exists is so MAGA states can use the schools to indoctrinate American schoolchildren

That’s not the only reason. There are in fact principles of federalism, and there’s the 10th amendment to the constitution. Educating the public is not one of the 17 enumerated powers granted to Congress in article I. Under the 10th, powers that are not granted to the national government are reserved to the states or to the people.

This is why the national government’s regulation of education is based around carrots in the form of block grants that states apply for. Not enforcement sticks.

This could be a nice lesson about the taxicab metric and the Euclidean metric, but that doesn’t seem like the intention.

Low approach. Delivery truck was on the public highway. Not a runway incursion. Pilot’s about to lose their job.

A spinning circle requires just two threads, one to do the work and one to spin the circle. And they don’t have to talk to each other.

A progress bar is the same thing, but now the work thread has to periodically communicate the progress to the bar thread, and inter-thread synchronization has to be setup. And how do you know how much progress a single file transfer represents? Or how many progress points is a registry edit versus a file transfer? It’s hard to figure out in advance, which is why so many progress bars are shitty estimates of progress.

And I’m still getting at least 20x speedup on my applications. I don’t know where this 0.001 stuff is coming from.

In fact, the impeachment resolutions have already been filed, and they are going to get just as far as this bill. So I don’t understand your complaint. For example.

Apparently finalized a few days ago. But the news was published in The Onion, so you can be forgiven for thinking it might be satire.

But just imagine the closing argument where the plaintiff’s attorney puts this quote on a slide, “It’s okay for the boys to be childish”. And then the next slide is a quote from the witness talking about whatever harassment she endured.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, MrBeast says it’s okay for ‘the boys’ to be childish. But the law says it’s not okay. It’s not okay for ‘the boys’ to grope their subordinates.”

This stuff writes itself.

Normally, the purpose of the employee handbook is so you can wave it around in court to show how much of a goody two shoes you must be. Employee handbooks are litigation-proofing documents.

But MrBeast took an opposite approach and turned his employee handbook into a giant “please sue me for sexual harassment and hostile work environment” poster.

And they can kick NASA out of the Madrid station on the Deep Space Network.

I’ve done professional work on an old Unix system where the full build was more than 2 hours, and an incremental stop-rebuild-restart cycle was 20 minutes.

You get to where you really stare at your edits for a while before you hit build.

That’s an implementation-defined behaviour.

The logic is real “dumb” or simple. The company that paid the tariff gets the refund.

Tariffs are paid at the port of entry and before you are allowed to physically get the goods out of the port. So the payer is not always the manufacturer. Sometimes it’s an importer or middleman. Sometimes a retailer. It could be you if you shipped in a package from overseas.

That region of origin protection does not extend to the United States.

In the US, “parmesan” can legally be just about any kind of cheese made in any location (mostly Wisconsin), as long as it is aged at least 10 months, and not more than 32% moisture. “Parmigiano Reggiano” and some other specific trademarks are protected terms in the US that mean the same as they do in Europe.

I don’t know about your definition of “living wage,” but In-n-Out has a long-standing reputation for paying decent and above-market wages, both in 2016 and today.

I would guess that most of the current price premium over inflation is attributable to the current record high beef prices owing to a record low North American cattle herd.

The presidential pardon does not reverse the civil wrongful death judgement. And the facts that came out from the criminal investigation and trial can still be used as evidence in a civil lawsuit.

The problem that the Coulson family is facing is that their defendant seems to be judgment proof: he either doesn’t have the money, or he has structured things so they can’t get at the money.

This is a serious fuckup. We win wars on the strength of logistics.

It’s a key component to any well-integrated home air defense system.

That kid looks ready to raise your health insurance deductible again and deny your claim for insulin.
