Less direct effects, people are not forced to retire off the stock market and layoffs are very regulated here.

So it's going to be bad but not like the US.

Yeah, but these people or the current UK government is not the people who started that shitshow. Happened quite a while ago.

That said, they are still on the hook for continuing to support it and not even denouncing it.

The death penalty makes sense, but only for CEOs or politicians who knowingly make choices that result in the deaths of hundreds. The Boeing CEO should have been executed for knowing negligence that resulted in that string of crashes.

That's because there is much less of a chance of "getting the wrong person", since the buck has to stop there, the fish smells from the head, and it is the one situation where the value of deterrence trumps rehabilitation or other concerns.

The coalition of the willing stuff was for Ukraine, not for everything, so far.

Article 7 has been "increasingly likely" for the past 15 years.

Not defending them, but it is normal to store batteries at 40% charge to maximise longevity. That said, no reason they couldn't charge them before delivery.

Yeah, look at Serbia. And they are only partway through as well.

We did last time he was doing this. Sanctions on red state stuff, like Kentucky whiskey.

I'll enjoy it twice as hard to compensate.

 

So creating a new repo on GitHub, you get a set of getting started steps. They changed the default branchname to "main" from "master" due to its connotations with slavery.

When I create a new repo now, the initial getting started steps recommend creating a branch named "master" as opposed to "main" as it was a while ago.

It's especially weird since the line git branch -M master is completely unnecessary, since git init still sets you up with a "master" branch.

Disclaimer: I have a bunch of private repos, and my default branchnames are pretty much all "master".

Is this a recent change?

Edit: Mystery solved, my default branchname is "master". Thanks [email protected] !

 

I mean, he's not wrong, but apparently saying the quiet part out loud became a faux pas in Hungary recently.

It's not as pithy as Orbán's "Rosatom will buy it for me" about RTL Hungary though.
