Be very careful with mutual funds in this climate. Most are heavily weighted towards the Mag7 which include some of the most massively overinflated stocks.

I moved my stocks into non-US bonds and GICs when the first round of tariffs against us (Canada) happened. At this point I think it’d be a terrible idea to jump ship because you’ll realize that loss.

Not the hyphen specifically - just a distinct symbol for contractions.
So you’re of the opinion that somehow by making five hundred austerity cuts saving two million dollars each the GOP will shave a trillion from the budget? Is Trump going to increase or decrease the deficit in your mind?
The democrats are fiscally conservative. The GOP believes in budget unbalancing tax cuts and are fiscally liberal.
I assume they vote liberal or are uncomfortable being seen as the hateful sack of shit they are.
If we’re talking America the parties align like this:
I’d be cool with that - I don’t care how we mark contractions just as long as we stop reusing apostrophes for it.
Eh - I thought dash was a pretty reasonable symbol for “There’s a contraction here” I don’t really care about the actual symbol as long as we stop using the same symbol for contractions and possessives. In my sample It-s
would currently be written It's
and the it's
(a possessive) would be its
if that’s what you’re asking.
Possessives always get an apostrophe outside of weird exceptions where they clash with contractions. I’m proposing we fix that. Also - let’s bring back mass possessions like “At the bake sale Moms’ baked goods are always delicious”
The inconsistency of apostrophe usage in English for possessives and contractions. If it was instead written…
It-s a wonderful day out today, take your phone but turn off it’s data so you can soak up the clear blue skies.
It’d be so much fucking easier and my OCD would be satiated.
I agree that the N-word is far worse - I didn’t mean to equate them but to use it as a point of comparison. The really fucking hateful and widespread usages of the n-word mostly date back to the 70s - it’s now used almost exclusively by badge wearing racists… so it has had about fifty years of pop culture non-hateful uses but is still clearly unacceptable.
The R-word was seeing widespread usage a mere twenty years ago - it’s still part of the active memory of millennials and older.
An interesting comparison might be gypsy (I type it out only because I can’t think of a clear way to abbreviate it) which is seen as an unacceptable slur (especially in the verb form) which had fallen out of social use in the 50s - even that word (though it is less openly hateful) is still pretty unacceptable.
It’s a similar story for other less common racial slurs - once a word becomes such a hateful slur it seems like the most common social response is to just abandon it with reclamation being a rarity and confined to the in group in every case I can think of (the n-word and the f-word both have gained some usage within their communities but it isn’t universal… I have an extremely negative memory of the f-word which makes me uncomfortable even when people I trust use it).
I think they mean recession.
(They actually mean that word from the 90s for developmentally challenged if you’re truly unaware).
It becoming socially acceptable is a really nebulous bar - if I found myself among folks who found it acceptable I wouldn’t use it as I consider it unacceptable at a personal level - but if it’s usage completely changed in the year 2270 then sure I might use it.
The n-word and r-word will never be socially acceptable in our lifetimes and anyone who says differently is just an asshole trying to cloak their behavior. I also don’t really see a need to put effort into reclaiming either term…
In general, I think it’s a bad thing that we have words that have become unacceptable to use and I wish those words had never been so associated with hate - but they were do we are where we are.
I assume you need to calculate the red triangle’s hypotenuse but it seems like there are too many degrees of freedom to lock down any of the other sides or angles of the triangle including X unless I’m missing some hack involving chords and reflected angles.
Can you confirm that Trump had a quart of gravy with a side of hollandaise for lunch? During the meal did he indeed steal some of RFK Jr’s beef tallow fried clubbed seal to dip in it?
You leave the bore and the idiot alone and suddenly your NPM dependencies jump from 30MB to 502GB.
I’d just suggest five Terry Pratchett novels because… you’re dead, why not enjoy a few hours reading some good books before whatever happens next - especially since Pratchett’s Death was specifically written to be comforting to those facing their mortality.
Nope, when writing on a PC I avoid touching NY mouse anyway.
I don’t always namespace but when I do I fully qualify.
