But who would lead the executive branch then and how would you ensure that they are reasonably separated from the legislative branch?

Haha, I was actually joking, I didn't think it's really true. This is hilarious!

Maybe they're talking about themselves in 3rd person (dragonfucker)? 🙃

Is Google Chrome fighting uBlock country-specific? I use Chrome on Win 10 with uBlock and haven't seen a YouTube ad outside of the mobile app in ages. For me, uBlock never stopped working in Chrome and I watch YouTube videos every 1-2 days.

A few bad things in code for which we have fairly consistent evidence:

  • high nesting depth
  • meaningless or single-letter variable names
  • lots of code duplication
  • very inconsistent formatting
  • very complicated Boolean conditions with AND and OR
  • functions with a lot of parameters

As a software engineering researcher, I strongly agree. SE research has studied code comprehension for more than 40 years, but for that amount of time, we know surprisingly little about what makes really high-quality code. We are decent in saying what makes very bad code, though, but beyond extreme cases, it's hard to come to fairly general statements.

That's a great analogy via movie quotes if I've ever seen one! Need to rewatch that movie... :)

I'm confused about this as well. Why is this trial happening before one that would bring criminal charges for the insurrection to lock him up? If he lost such a trial, he would be automatically banned from running, right? Or is the required evidence different for this one and that's why they go with it?

While I agree with the general notion of this, there are still companies that are considerably worse than others. Choosing the lesser evil is still something that would overall help society and the planet.
