35 years ago today, June 4, 1989, Poles ousted the communist party in the first partly free elections since WW2. The election set off a chain of events that led to the opening of the Berlin wall. The USSR's European empire had collapsed by the end of the year.
Also on June 4, 1989, the Chinese army fired on Tianamen Square protesters, ending any hope of political change. The massacre helped inspire the Chinese communist party to create the total surveillance state they are completing today.

It’s only tentacle porn if it’s from the Tentacle region of Japan. Otherwise it’s just wiggly hentai.

To those saying "If it can happen to trump, it can happen to anyone.", yes you are correct.

If trump can be held accountable for his crimes, that means everyone can be held accountable for their crimes.

This isn't a flaw or a mistake, it's literally how the law is supposed to work.

I, a total stranger, was thinking of befriending your kid, but before I did, I thought I'd ask you, are they a boring, selfish jerk?

It's fine if they are, I'm just really trying to find quality people to be friends with, so I thought I'd ask you, is your kid a dick?

Wait, don't get offended! How are people supposed to know whether to hang out with your kid if you can't answer a simple question?!

In the same way most of us say “goodbye” without realising it derives from “god be with ye”, maybe one day people will end conversations with “likensubscribe”

One of these shootings happened in my community. The deceased child was 13 years old, his injured sister is 16.

It's pretty hard to feel optimistic about the chances of reducing gun violence right now when there are so many out there that children can access them easily. It should not be controversial to say that kids shouldn't have access to guns.

Great visualisation for the efficiency of cursor based pagination from @jessicamauerhan at #ipc #webinale. Did you know that limit-offset pagination has to scan the whole database to figure out what comes next?

That's a long time if you're on the last page of thousands of results. But it doesn't have to be that way - investigate adding cursors to your data sets. With appropriate indices, the time required is constant.

Because I was reminded. Remember when PowerShell went Open Source eight years ago and I submitted a PR the next day proposing to remove the #curl alias?

There is always another windmill to fight!

If you are reading the jury instructions, a lot of the stuff here is to reduce the appealable issues. In the olden days, before jury instructions were standarized, defense lawyers would appeal and say "the reasonable doubt standard given by the judge was unclear or misleading."

Standardizing a lot of this language prevents the judge from misspeaking and using the wrong term.

Judges have something to read.

I'm gonna share some completely anticlimactic TMI for the benefit of other middle-aged men:

The day before yesterday, I was very stressed and anxious for a variety of reasons, and we were moving some furniture out of a storage locker, and I was feeling lethargic and a little lightheaded and generally out of it, and then I began feeling nausea and indigestion and my jaw was tight and then my left arm and hand started feeling a little numb. Nothing terrible! Just: feeling meh, and those minor symptoms.

And then guess what crazy thing we did?

We went to the nearby emergency room.

Yep.

And they were very nice to me, and quickly administered an EKG and blood tests, and guess what?

I wasn't having a heart attack.

I was just stressed and tired and anxious. That's all.

But if I had been having a heart attack, going to the E.R. could have saved my life. And even though I wasn't, they were very nice to me. No one made fun of me. No one called me a whiner or a hypochondriac. My wife expressed gratitude that I took my survival seriously. And I was home again in less than two hours.

So this is for my fellow typical men, who are inclined to ignore health issues because: John Wayne or something, and fear of embarrassment:

Don't ignore stuff. Don't wait until you're sure. Be willing to overreact. Be willing to waste everyone's time. It's okay! The world won't end! (And you may even get to take a nap under a warm blanket, like I did!)
