Supreme Court appointments don’t matter?
Different model, same website. Silver got to keep his model and took it elsewhere after departing from 538.
“cis” isn’t an acronym, FYI. It’s just short for “cisgender” and doesn’t need to be capitalized. No shade intended at all, just wanted to let you know.
I’m going to take a different approach than most of the other comments here: you can’t. Microplastics are in the air and a large chunk of it comes from car tire residue. You’re breathing it, likely right now. Research is still in the early phases and we just don’t know how bad it is yet, both from the proliferation and the impact side of things.
Source is Breaking the Plastic Wave and Overview on the occurrence of microplastics in air.
Ah, there’s the catch and confusion. Not required for single player but required for multi, I guess? Not sure how others play Civ but that’s not gonna affect me. I’ve only ever played these games solo besides a very rare duo game.
It doesn’t. They mentioned there would be a unique skin for Napoleon if you signed up but it didn’t sound required.
I think the distributed nature of Mastodon keeps government control from being an issue. It would be kind of cool as a space for citizens to ask for assistance or air grievances while giving the politicians an officially owned space for things like announcements.
It’s not fixing your pet issue, so it’s doing nothing? Cool, great argument. It’s like saying Doctors Without Borders didn’t repeal Citizens United, so they’re completely worthless. Genuine question, are you trolling? I would feel better for you if you were.
Or not every single decision at a multi-trillion dollar company is driven exclusively by diversity? Why would you be looking to DEI efforts to fix this specifically? This is just not a logical leap at all. Complete non-sequitur.
That’s even all setting aside that Windows is going to sell just fine and those ads are going to drive increased profits, so this isn’t even a bad thing from the MS perspective. DEI has a positive impact on things, but that doesn’t mean it magically solves all of your problems from the POV of the customer?
Yeah, I’m sure that’s all because of DEI.
Diversity brings new perspectives and those new perspectives drive improvements to a company’s culture and output. It’s that simple.
Link to a single study I found easily, but there are many more. If you want your company to be successful, it behooves you to diversify your workforce as much as possible on every possible axis.
The Bible takes place almost entirely in the middle east and I would guess this guy’s mental reel of it looks like an Imagine Dragons concert.
Do you say this about all QoL updates? I’m not going to use this and also think Google sucks in general, but this is such a benign, optional little feature for people who might find it more convenient. Isn’t that what development should be all about?
So why are you talking about a 5k limit?
I’m not going to answer any more questions you can answer by reading the bill.
None of what you’re saying makes sense, it’s just “your team” so you defend it.
Not sure what “team” you’re even implying I’m on? I haven’t given a single political opinion other than saying “not sure I agree with that” in response to the asylum claim threshold. I’ve only corrected factual information in regards to the text of the bill. In fact, I have less than zero desire to get into any sort of political argument with someone who won’t even put in the 10 minutes it would take to read the section by section.
No, it’s discretionary down to a limit of 4k, which is also in the text of the bill. I really think you should stop commenting strongly on things you haven’t even read. It’s not a great look. You can find the section by section and full text on Lankford’s site. He led the bipartisan team that introduced the bill, but I’m sure you can find it elsewhere.
Quite a bit. Have you read the bill? Section I is doing a lot of hiring and training changes for border personnel. Section II is entirely centered on enhancements to the asylum review process. It’s mostly minutiae like streamlining certain bars for entry and such. There is also the contentious 5k/day (likely to be 4k under an R admin since it’s discretionary) threshold in Section III that triggers a full stop to entry until some of the backlog is cleared. Not sure I fully agree with that one but it will indisputably have an impact on the backlog.
What a ridiculous way to compute value. Do you really think jobs are the only thing bought with that money? It brings money into the community. Those workers take that money and spend it at local businesses, driving the local economy up. Why do you think cities fall over each other to court these companies?
You keep trying to drive back to the genocide, but listen to what the people above you are telling you: the populace cares more about the economy and jobs than they do about Palestine. Last I checked (and I don’t have a source for you, sorry, just something I read in an article recently.) about half of Americans find Israel sympathetic in this conflict and about 30% find Palestine sympathetic. It’s obviously much more skewed toward Palestine for young people, but they are also notoriously the most fickle and demanding demographic.
The left is trying to win a noble fight with leverage it does not have, which is sadly their modus operandi. If you want a path that is set in reality and reduces the pain decades of foreign policy have constructed, vote Biden and vote as left as possible downticket to create an ecosystem where Congress can get the left what it wants and needs. I’d be happy to be wrong, but I do not believe there is anything else possible to be done in the current geopolitical scheme.
EDIT: I did find the Gallup poll. Gallup. You’ll have to scroll past the opinions on the PA specifically.
They only make
unhousedpeople look sympathetic when they want to use them as weapons against people they hate even more thanpoorthose people. Any other time they’re just freeloaders too lazy or drunk to get a job.
Fixed it!
