Only problem is accepting dates in anything except YYYYMMDD, or unix time stamps if you need more precision.
Nope.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, Ronald Reagan’s admin was the reason NASA had to launch so quickly, he wanted to mention it during the State Of The Union Address.
We’re lucky that he didn’t give someone a medal for blowing up a passenger aircraft (again).
Back in the early 70s, NASA engineer tests on a part indicated that a joint with 2 O-rings was too wide and could expose the o-ring. Northrop Grumman and NASA’s project manager said it was fine, 2 o-rings meant one was redundent right? and the design made it into the solid rocket booster.
Then in 1977, a different test indicated 1 oring was letting gas during certain levels of mechanical stress. The engineers proposed a solution, which was ignored.
Then in 1980, they asked to test what would happen if 1 oring weren’t there and what would happen if the oring was cold. This was denied.
Then in 1981, a return booster was inspected and they found soot between the orings and one eroded, and the problem was added to the critical issues list. And ignored.
This happened again in 1984.
In 1985, they realized when the oring was cold at launch, the problem got way worse. Northrop Grumman finally changed the design to fix it.
But they had a bunch of the old, unsafe part laying around, and NASA didn’t want to miss deadlines, so in January of 1986, they launched a shuttle with the part that they knew was unsafe in cold conditions, coldest morning they’d ever launched and a middle-school class watched a live stream of their teacher exploding 10 miles in the air.
It’s the thing you use to create a local copy of the main code base, and then merge your changes back in.
OP hasn’t done anything, and there’s 7 conflicts between his code and main. Presumably because someone else merged their changes in the time between when OP pulled his local copy and tried to push his (non-existent) changes.
Nuclear is not displaced by wind and solar, it’s displaced by fossil fuels. Nobody’s arguing that we should stop building solar or wind to start 20 year long nuclear constructions (though china has it down to 5).
The continued existence of German lignite mining and their expansion of gas are due to turning off nuclear plants before the end of their lifespan.
Don’t forget turning off all their nuclear plants to become reliant on brown coal and russian (now american) gas.
The idea that something that affects society can be nonpolitical is just your bias towards the status quo.
Everything was always political, and the status quo has always depended on hordes of lumpen trained to identify with their own oppressors over their own interests.
Before there were networks of right-wing radio and websites distributing right-wing talking points, they just used TV, newspapers, mailing lists, posters, etc. The effect was still 100 million Americans cheering when the national guard shot students protesting against the state sending their friends to die while participating in atrocities in Vietnam.
Even gardening is political; the notion that you should only plant grass and ornamental plants, mow your lawn once a week, and any deviation was a flaw was popularized and enforced by William Levitt to keep people from having too much time to read and become communists.
Similar sentiments spring up after the civil war regarding edible gardening and use of fruiting trees in urban planning, for fear that black people will live off foraging instead of working.
You really shouldn’t uncritically accept anything Ukraine or Russia says about the war. Of course they’re going to say the other side is targeting civilians while we only attack valid military targets. Don’t you remember Libya? Iraq? Afghanistan? Bosnia? We know how the news operates in these situations.
Russia abducted more children than died in the “people’s republics”.
This is misframing refugees fleeing into Russia as abduction. These aren’t moustache-twirling villains.
Then there will no longer be people the Ukrainians regard as Russians in Ukraine.
I use all 3.
If it’s very short and there’s 2 or more in a row, I’ll put it all in one line.
If there’s a bunch of nested if statements, I’ll use the second.
If neither of those conditons, I’ll use the first.
I don’t like the framing of people believing what they’ve been told by teachers, parents, and the media all their life all being gullible imbeciles.
Some of them even examine both sides to get a full understanding of the issue, by watching both CNN and Fox News.
Even if you include ‘killed by police’ (or, in some cases, killed by militia) this stands true.
Over the last decade, police in America have killed at least between 950 and 1250 people a year.
The actual numbers are probably higher because police don’t report all the people they kill, so statisticians are limited to searching news stories that contain the relevant data.
Sanctions are not collective punishment
DPRK did invade the RoK
The RoK was doing genocide and had been recognized as the gov’t of all of Korea in the UN due to the US’s machinations, a gov’t whose election was rigged in the south, and absent in the north. The elections the north arranged were of course, ignored.
The DPRK saw that their position was unsustainable and struck while they still stood a chance. The war started when the people of the DPRK were faced with an existential threat.
Which is kind of similar to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but nobody here is gonna pretend Russia are the good guys, just that they’re fighting a greater evil.
Also also, China has reserved a spot on its equivalent of the National Mall for when it takes Taiwan back.
Do you think the RoC can feasibly remain independent forever?
Eventually either PRC is gonna be able to make them a better deal than what the failing American empire can, or they’ll make long-term peaceful integration infeasible, necessitating short-term, violent integration.
And have NATO 500 miles from Moscow and all of Russia’s industry? That would be suicidal, Everyone remembers Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya.
Each gov’t has a policy of not recognizing any state that recognizes the other gov’t.
Correct, this isn’t a serious discussion, I don’t genuinely disagree with everything Kruschev did other than sending the tanks into Hungary and supporting Cuba, nor attribute everything the USSR did during that time to Kruschev; I imagine H3doubehockeysticks has more nuanced takes on the USSR and China.
I think they’re referring to Chinese support of the Khmer Rouge. Obviously they’re not the ones who engineered the coup that put Pol Pot’s faction in power (see America), but not siding with the USSR and Vietnam against them was a p big L.
OK, two things he did right.
The fallout from the sinosoviet split and destalinization can’t be overstated though.
OK yeah everyone knew the cops started shooting protesters, but the real mystery is who were the snipers shooting the riot cops.
