  • Math.min isn’t the minimum integer; it’s the minimum of a list (and max visa versa)… the min/max of an undefined list is the same… IDK what it is, but this probably the most reasonable of the “WTFs” they could have put there i think… other languages would throw an exception or not compile (which JS definitely SHOULD do instead of this, buuuuut lots of JS has aversions to errors)

    *edit: okay the curiosity was killing me: Math.min() is Infinity and Math.max() is -Infinity












  • the point of pride is it’s about visibility: relationships in pop culture are almost entirely hetero… you just don’t see queer relationships at the ratio they exist in society… pride is all about celebrating the existence of queer existence and our relationships and culture

    if you add similar things for heterosexuals, it’s saying “we have everything most of the time and this 1 time where you’re seen, we want to be part of that as well”… or worse, want to draw attention away from it by being bigger



  • and which side is protesting against the police use of force and wants change?

    you say that the “woke” crowd want DEI enforced by a police baton, and then move the goalposts to that if we make the rules we won’t have any control over the use of force to enforce them, while it’s a subset of that exact crowd that are chanting “defund the police” while the anti-woke are “thin blue line”

    the woke crowd want to be able to live life like anyone else, and doesn’t want anyone to face police violence… it’s the anti-woke crowd that want more police violence and more reason to use that violence on everyday people who don’t fit the mould






  • idk i think our aussie plugs are a good middle ground: they’re about mid way between UK and US in size, are not reversible, don’t have a fuse (but laws govern the type of current things can handle: extension cords MUST be 10A which covers a standard 10A home circuit - i believe there’s some extra built into the rating too), power boards the same, and have a 10A safety switch built into them which prevents daisy chaining over the current just like the fuse

    repairability probably not so good, buuuuut i’ve never had a cable break so maybe we do something different with the construction that solves that need?
