“America, regardless of what so-called international institutions say, is unleashing the most lethal and precise air power campaign in history,” Hegseth said at a March 2 press conference. “No stupid rules of engagement.”
I started reading this quote thinking it was someone critical of the administration, but no, it's Hegseth himself. They're fucking proud of their atrocities.
I think it must be a speck of something on my lens. There's a similar artifact on another photo I have from around the same time, in about the same light.
Voting out of line with the Democratic Party in North Carolina is proving to be a fraught decision.
I don't like this way of putting it. I don't want the democrats to be a "toe the line" party. What's risky is going along with Republican bullshit, not breaking from specific Democrat positions.
I'm with you on this. Trump is human garbage, and his war with Iran is a terrible decision, but the idea that we sometimes have to trade lives for the greater good (whether or not we agree that the trade is worth it in this particular instance) is not new. Outrage is better spent on the war itself, not his stupid choice of words.
That is kind of cool, I guess, but it kinda feels like "Let's take these valuable care providers and take advantage of the increased exposure to germs that they subject themselves to, and then HARVEST THEIR VERY BLOOD!"
My favorite is that in the same vein, Aristarchus estimated the size of the sun to be much larger than the earth (although he still severely underestimated it because it's so hard to measure), and therefore proposed that the earth should orbit around the sun. And the main problem with his theory was not any religious objection, but rather that his model would imply that there should be parallax visible among the stars. Unless they are, you know, ridiculously far away.
I would guess that it has to do with making it easier to parse. The indents won't matter very much, but the parser sees "physical = " and knows that a property named physical is being defined. What is the value of that property? Well, there's a "{", so the value is an object. And the value of that object is everything up until the matching "}". If you have a structure more like panel 1, then it's harder for the parser to know when the value of orange.physical is complete. There might be a [orange.physical.texture] section somewhere, for example.
If you were to make a list of prominent evil people these days, you certainly wouldn't be starved for choice, but Ken Paxton seems to be vying for a spot near the top.
