The article isn't claiming that all anxious people support the left, or that all anxious people are leftists. The claim as made in the title is that "People with anxious tendencies are more likely to support left-wing economic pol

Both American presidents and Abrahamic faiths have, historically, justified slavery and genocide (and often by the same pretense.) And the current President's ridiculous beliefs are just as ridiculous as believing in transubstantiation

I disagree that someone unwilling to engage in good faith debate should be made the namesake of a "Center for Intellectual Freedom" because at the very least such a person is a bad example what such a center should stand for and r

"debate bros" are known for their bad faith arguments and lack of any real intellectual curiosity. They make a mockery of honest discourse. It isn't a compliment.

Making it an extension rather than default was a mistake on PHP's part. 99% of PHP is being run on shared servers and most people cant recompile it, and most of the rest just won't. Having a language whose entire purpose is to be

My suggestions, none of which are particularly simple but it's C, you get what you get with a language that doesn't even know what strings and arrays are: 0) use Lua with LuaJIT. It has very good C interop and native hashmaps. D

You can excuse or justify the genocide of native people by European colonizers any way you want, although it baffles me why so many people want to. But it doesn't matter, they still don't get to call themselves native.

I don't know. I do know that, as far as America is concerned, "native" doesn't include the colonizers who showed up 200 years ago when the land was already settled.

If it were the other way around people would be accusing the CCP of trying to rig the election for the Democrats, but sure. When it helps the Republicans I guess there's nothing to see here.
