It kind of is sometimes, but at the same time it’s hard to do education any other way.

Which I think just illustrates that take-home essays aren’t a great way to do things now, if they ever were.

Skill issue. Used an implied “of them”, which is idiomatic in the language, but forgot to update the value of “them” first. Without that, taking the first value is compliant with the standard.

/s, but only if we assume us programmers have common sense. ^/s

You know, I always assumed black people wouldn’t have the kamikaze-bugs-against-your face problem. If so, this is an ironic choice of template.

These also have no real inputs and outputs, so it’s hard to see how they could have some kind of consciousness. Still, brain organoids have been a source of ethical debate since the beginning. The assembloid things mentioned sound a little riskier yet.

Can’t argue about bases if you refuse to elaborate beyond Presburger arithmetic. (Guy pointing at head meme)

Thank you for the easier captchas, and pre-emptively damn you for whatever evil thing CloudFlare will eventually do with their MITM access to everything.

I guess, but neither kind of dashboard catches dash from your horses these days. And forget about all bears being “brown ones”. Language evolves.

Haha, true. But then again, I’ve definitely thought that about like, a self-loading rifle or a can opener that way.

Shark avatar, though.

I think that’s the basic idea, but in practice it’s used for people who are just generally dumb as well.

It offers protection from crackers and cybergangs too, because they always follow laws. /s

Yes, without hesitation, although I’d want to rinse it first to avoid cross-contamination.

Banana picking and shipping as it usually happens isn’t exactly sterile, either. Or the grocery store where everyone is sorting through them. This is also why you should wash anything you don’t peel.

Yeah, I futzed with it a bit. At first I did sesquicentennial, but that’s purely an adjective which isn’t great. Sesquicentenary refers to the day, so that wouldn’t work. So, I made a nonce word which, if you know these other two, is clear.

I’ll just ignore the insulting tone.

They addressed that, actually.

True to the spirit of journalistic inquiry, your correspondent can attest that seawater has not degraded the taste of the bananas, with the only threats to health posed by skin slippage and by eating too many of them.

Definitely peel it first.

I mean, that was slightly fictional, although that’s the maybe the joke. And set a sesquicentury ago.

Man, they really are trying everything to get you to click the magic button.

Not shocked. The fact other people might be shocked just tells you how out of control trust in the magic boxes and the people who sell them has gotten. When they collect something more sensitive or embarrassing, people just assume the security and regulation must be tighter to match.

So do you trust cell towers more, or just stay offline when out and about?
