It looks like there is a window there. You can see the frame on the right side of the photo.

It's a common thing in programming. There's some legacy code that isn't being used and yet removing it causes things to break. Nobody has the time to figure out what is still referencing that code, so it just gets a comment next to it saying "Not used, but removing it breaks the build" and then forgotten about.

Nearly 98% of cars sold in the US are automatic. Manual transmissions are often not even an option for a lot of models.

This press release is from 2023. Not sure why it was posted like it was news.

I think mistakes like this are usually caused by someone changing their mind on one thing they wrote and forgetting to proofread the whole thing to see if it still makes sense. I imagine this sentence started out as "Rock the size of a small boulder".

Luckily it looks like they are in Australia, based on their instance.

Allowing Google to run an ad campaign targeting their members wasn't the benefit Blue Cross was talking about, that's a side effect from them not turning off the data sharing option in the Google analytics settings.

The analytics data is used for prioritizing development work. If a tool they have on the website relies on a library that isn't compatible with a new version of React, for instance, do they know how many people use it? Having analytics allows you to decide what's worth spending the development time to maintain.

The analytics would be for the web development team to see which pages/features are used. Usually a product manager uses that data for setting priorities on what gets worked on.

My constructive suggestion was for people to stop saying they are unintentionally boycotting things. It just seems self-congratulatory and smug and every boycott discussion is just choked with those comments.

I was writing third paragraph about how if you aren't shopping somewhere that is being boycott, you can help by spreading the word. I deleted it once when I had the realization that it doesn't matter what I say, the next boycott post will have the same comments and that I'm getting worked up over something I can't change.

It was his stepmom's gun, not the mom's. Article was probably edited at some point, since I see at least one place where they forgot the step part.

2019 Elon was an asshole who called people pedos, cared more about the aethetics of the factory floor than worker safety, manipulated stock value by blatantly lying, fought unionization, and attacked whistleblowers. His open right-wing political 'turn' didn't start until people told him he needed to follow the rules to prevent the spread of Covid.

It's so hard to believe that Cybertruck buyers are surprised that people hate them. They ignored all of these things about Elon and Tesla and then they bought the ugliest car ever made. They didn't hear a single thing about Elon in the last decade and then dropped $100k on a stainless steel death trap that is awful at doing actual truck things and is barely held together? Like how did they hear about the truck in the first place if they are so disconnected from the world?

I have a bottle of the Dr. Doctor syrup in my pantry. I forgot I had it tbh, since I haven't been drinking soda for a while. It's a decent brand if you have a machine that carbonates water.
