I clicked and bought something via an online ad once. I needed a new jacket and the one in the ad was exactly what I was looking for. I overpaid because the jacket fell apart after a couple wears. The experience has definitely soured me on

Congress was destined to this fate when they eliminated earmarks. Earmarks, or pork barrel spending, were derided as gov't waste, but in reality they were the grease that kept legislation moving. A representative could go back to their

That same article says she was born in 1989 and graduated MIT in 1987. I knew she was driven, even before conception!

You're upset that a fantasy world that is based on a real place, but isn't that place mind you, added a black character? In a world with ice magic, animated snowmen, and singing reindeer you are upset about diversity because it&#x

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion. Basically the right wing’s latest boogeymen to scare up their base. Think how “woke” has been co-opted and used by pundits to make people angry.

That would be argued in cross-examination. A witness can be shown to be not a good witness. Perjury is very specific to knowingly lying while testifying under oath. We really don't want to expand it to areas of ignorance or disagreemen

I loved Pebble. My wife and I had multiple watches and I was very active in the dev community. If Pebble were still around I’d still be a customer. Pebble’s problem wasn’t the Apple Watch, although it certainly didn’t help. What killed Pebb

If we could beam our thoughts directly into each other's head, we would. It would be the easiest way to convey information. Alas, we don't have that ability, so we resort to the written word. If your goal is to spread something in

It’s mostly for time purposes. Nobody wants to wait another hour for the round to end because someone is trying to draw their game, which means those players potentially have to play yet another game. In reality it doesn’t happen that often

The Magic tournament rules cover this: “Some loops are sustained by choices rather than actions. In these cases, the rules above may be applied, with the player making a different choice rather than ceasing to take an action. The game moves

It depends. If the game state changes, say like a change in one player’s life total, then the loop won’t usually end in a draw. In the example above the opponent will eventually die. In paper once a player has demonstrated a loop they must
