Maybe unpopular, but I like the chuckling screech of the bald eagle. Also barn swallows, they kind of “talk” when they are relaxed.

I agree with you. A type amounts to the sum of operations that are valid on an object conforming to that type. A file object is a very basic, general type, that allows open, read bytes, write bytes, close, maybe seek, maybe some ops are res

Thanks, I thought this was about the cross breeding that the American Chestnut Foundation has done for decades, but they are now advocating a mixed approach with GE as well.

This was discovered through the supplier transparency reports that Apple provides. Apple tells suppliers what they expect, and then when they audit the supplier they report the findings and work with supplier to clean up their act. In this

We don’t have a word as popular and overused as “coup” to describe the attempt to shut down the transfer of power. But this did involve the storming of a legislature in session in a obvious attempt to thwart the proceedings in a power grab.
