I think it is ok to express displeasure at the state of something without just silently doing something else and hoping that the entire ecosystem catches up to you. For example, I take every opportunity (like right now, for example) to shit

It is their definition of "hostile" that is the problem. They do not explain. I suspect it means "I can't track you, so you are hostile." Otherwise, where is the data for this?

Very much so! [1] You can even see on the chart how there was very little until inauguration, giant leaps after unpopular EO's, and you can even see the portfolio drop when Trump took a beat and eased up on the EOs after Feb 3rd. [1]

I have been doing the opposite. Whenever Trump signs on executive order or signals an intention, I presume it will either fail or will end in bad results for the poor and middle class. Then, working as if that were true, I see if there are

Not directly related to your question, but I suspect pigz and gnu parallel would dramatically speed up your current command-line technique, if you are on a multi-processor machine. Also you might put export LC_ALL=C before fgrep, since you

Opioids are worth lots on the street. Even people with "real pain" still need money right? Especially in a state like WV. So if you can get enough pills to cover your own pain management (meaning you likely can't work anyway)

Well, there is also information asymmetry at play here. Patients could have legit pain, and then go to multiple doctors, without the others finding out. Then they could sell those to other people, or use them all themselves. On the other ha

Siraj, Ima go ahead and say that your videos have a bit of cognitive friction. You and your personality are fine, but the jump between the intro and the payoff is jarring. You need to hold our hand a little more ... jus' sayin'.

How about this distinction? If favoritism (or some sort of -ism) is/was responsible for all of men's achievements or stations -- isn't the converse true? Doesn't that mean that if women rise through the ranks faster than
