I also hate the way “algorithm” has taken over the public consciousness. You can find people unironically saying “I don’t want any algorithm in my social media feed”, which is a nonsensical statement.

There’s never going to be a better time to do this. Next election is a long time off. Making a clear statement of “establishment Democrats will either be dragged to the left or kept out in the cold” means they have to play. The potential downside of splitting the ticket and letting Republicans win by default is acceptable if establishment Dems are going to ignore their levers of power, anyway.

IIRC, all that coal comes from plant material from before there were microbes that can break down cellulose. Meaning that while it’s possible to regenerate oil over millions of years, coal cannot.

So yes, there may be more of it now, but when we burn it, it’s gone forever.

Normally, you don’t want to commit code unless it’s been at least minimally tested, and preferably more than that.

All the CI’s, however, force a workflow where you can only test it by committing the code and seeing if it works. I’m not sure how to fix that, but I see the problem.

How did I know it’d be Uline?

I’m a little surprised the police didn’t already know about that method. Seems like they’d encounter enough CCTV footage that’d it’d be standard training.

I once again overestimate the training levels of the police.
