I taught my mom to play by using a couple of starter decks, giving a short overview of the objective and what the parts of the card meant, and then played a couple of matches with our cards revealed to each other. You just need to be patient, willing to explain anything, and be generous with allowing take backs and reminding about any rules they missed. And remember that if you want someone to keep playing with you, they need to be able to have fun too.

Last time, the judge said they can’t hold him just because Marco Rubio wants to deport him. They were allowed to hold him under the flimsy green card application allegations. This is taking away their other excuse.

It didn’t really look like he raised his weapon towards the crowd. He had it lowered until they either started yelling or shooting, hard to tell from the video, he only raised it into a running stance. It was still pointed mostly sideways.

I thought the video would be a slam dunk against him, but it just looks like he panicked when the shooting started and ran away.

This isn’t an issue with the Full self driving that people signed up for the beta for. It happens with the cruise control too.

Yeah, Tesla’s don’t have ordinary cruise control. They have adaptive cruise control and autopilot, which is adaptive cruise control + lane keeping. Both just use the camera. If you’re hoping to rest your foot during a cross country drive, then you better prepare for it to lurch every time it sees a shadow. Once every couple of miles if the road has enough shadows.

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.

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.

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.

A real judge. Immigration judges are employees of the Department of Justice and follow the orders of the Attorney General. He has another case in front of a federal judge in New Jersey who can question that determination.

It’s the final paragraph of the 12th amendment

But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.

It wouldn’t be as easy as just having him run as VP, since you can’t be Vice President if you aren’t eligible to be President.

I think people are mixing up copyright up with what Sony does with Spider-Man due to licensing terms. Like not only does copyright last damn near forever, you don’t need to keep releasing stuff to renew it and it doesn’t just go away because you aren’t using it.

There’s also a lot of confusion with trademarks. People will often defend big corporations threatening fan art because they “have to defend it or lose their copyright”, which is a trademark thing and not copyright.

If the email is from a legitimate business, they must have an unsubscribe button and it has to work. They get a little time before they are required to process the request, 10 days in the US, but I’ve usually seen it take effect immediately.

Don’t click the unsubscribe button in an actual spam email.
