-None of the workers received a copy of their work contract – a violation of Vietnamese law.
-Women work under high noise levels that exceed Vietnamese regulatory limits.
-All workers reported extreme fatigue and dizziness or fainting at work.
-Workers reported that miscarriages are extremely common—even expected.
-Workers must stand throughout their 8-to-12-hour shifts and many are kept on alternating day and night shift schedules, regardless of weekends.
-Pregnant workers usually stand for the entire shift to avoid having the company deduct money from their wages for taking breaks.
-More than half of the interviewed women have children, but company dormitory rules prohibit them from living with their mothers. The children live with family members in another town or city.
-Workers reported problems with bone, joint, and leg pain.
-Workers’ lives are controlled inside and outside of work and they are restricted from speaking about work because of fear of reprisals.
-The need for further research regarding chemical exposure is necessary. Despite the fact that workers are stationed in open factory settings where other workers use a variety of substances, they did not consider assembly line work a chemical risk.

Everyone who has uploaded a picture of themselves to Facebook, Linkedin or similar has already sold their face for free. That group includes almost everyone in the western world. $5 seems like a bargain compared to that.
Seems like having someone care for you when you're elderly is tangible, but maybe because you can buy this care it's not?
That's actually another approach some have on the meaning of the word "free" in the computer world:

free of malicious software, without virus/malware/Trojan/bot/worm/etc., free of endless searching for the right app to do the job, free of complicated procedures and user interfaces, etc.

And if these mean that the company (Apple in this case) must impose certain limitations on their software (and hardware), then so be it. People are always free to choose which product they want to purchase and for the majority of Apple's users, it seems Apple's definition of freedom has been more appealing than that of the others. It's not like people are not aware that buying an iPhone brings with it some "quirks" (remember you couldn't send/receive files by Bluetooth on iPhone, or in the beginning, third-party apps were not even allowed on iOS, ...).

Disclaimer: I'm not defending Apple here. Just saying that I understand their reasons.

Democracy implies you both have equal votes and there is an outcome that can become the norm. They are using the word 'literally' in a way that imbues additional meaning (or arguably makes a new word) without seeking permission from society or community. You are using (mild, well-meant) social coercion to try to suppress that usage. I'd say it's more anarchy than democracy.

I don't think there's any reason to upgrade unless some of your dependencies require a higher version and backporting is more expensive that porting over all your existing code. Since it sounds like you expose libraries with your own code and you have full control over your ecosystem, I don't think it makes sense to upgrade. At least in my project I see no reason to switch away from LuaJIT (so ~5.1/5.2). It works perfectly well and I don't see why that would change.

It's not an easy problem as you imply. It's not that you are "leaving out" groups so much that you have to go out of your way to include minorities in your data set by the definition of the word minority. This can make your project magnitudes more complex.

There's another type of language ambiguity in some languages, where the way a word is used makes it unclear what is the object and what is the subject in that sentence. It happens e.g. in Polish sometimes. Can't think of a good example now, but I recall that in my more pedantic days, I used to write stuff like: "subject --verb--> object" or "object <--verb subject" to distinguish between the cases. Unfortunately, it didn't catch on.

I know that we are all supposed to be "communism is teh bad", but the history of the Soviet Union is more complicated than just saying it was Communist, right? I'm actually kind of asking in hopes that someone who knows something about the subject can respond. I don't think that you can divorce what happened in the Soviet Union from the term Communism, just like you can't say that "real capitalism" has never been tried. I just imagine that it's way more complicated than "Commie == Bad".

In an embedded system sometimes the "leave it alone" factor outweighs the new features.

Anyway, you can find a summary of changes since 5.1 here: https://www.lua.org/versions.html

One of the biggest changes was the introduction of 64 bit integers in Lua 5.3

Perhaps my favorite little change is that you don't need to type = in the repl to print an expression anymore.
There may be more nuance, but as long as at least 650000 people were hoodwinked by that, or by the threat of their children being conscripted into the EU army or by the fear of Turkey joining imminently; or lured by the bogus newfound opportunities like buying fewer than five bananas at a time in the supermarket, or sending foreign criminals and scroungers back where they came from, then misinformation tipped the balance.

I don't doubt that many people had legitimate, considered reasons for voting to leave. Those people are not the point of the argument.

I'm certain that many did not have good reasons. I have met them. They post stupid memes on Facebook about poppies offending Muslims.

If enough of those people were swung by The Bus or anything from Boris Johnson's 30-year campaign of lies about "Barmy Brussels Bureaucrats", then this is not a democratic result.

It's harmful to the national discourse not to address misinformation. That is what truly chips away at the concept of democracy.

If we just accept that lying to the electorate is all part of the game, then it becomes just that - a game, to be won by the loudest and least scrupulous players, rather than a sensible decision-making tool.

Haha, yes, but thats just a static page not a website.
Sorta... "literally" may add emphasis to the figure of speech, a hyperbole, to make it even more hyperbolic. But in your example, "to explode" (according to Webster's) also means "to burst out in anger", so "literally" in this case would just serve to attest that the explosion of anger is accurate, which is the most essential definition of "literally" anyway.

A better, similar example could be "I was so ashamed I literally imploded". In this case "literally" is just emphasizing a figurative implosion.

Your heart is in the right place but it's absurd to think about "going over there and fight" - we are not living in the 19th century. We should be lobbying our governments (plural intended) for prompt and decisive military action, preferably involving the use of nuclear weapon since China will be sure to use it if we don't use it first. Japan had hoped to quickly disable US Navy by Pearl Harbor, which it nearly accomplished. The same strategy is the one we should be pursuing, only with modern weaponry.
a whitepaper will be publicly available soon.
> You can always vote yourself into oppression

True. But those in power can suppress voter turnout through a variety of means, whether thats spread of misinformation ("voting is [wrong day] at [wrong location]!"), literal voter suppression (intimidation tactics at places of voting, illegally collecting and destroying mail in ballots), to structural rigging, like gerrymandering.

We're definitely seeing a mixture of both. Democracy is certainly facing a lot of challenges. Many of them have been around for years, but are finally having a light cast on them... while others are newer, more nefarious.

I'm sure there are disgusting meat substitutes but it feels like they're super rare.

Wheat gluten nuggets and patties are dope, veggie patties are often disappointing but rarely bad, seitan strips can be slimy if you don't cook them but you basically can't mess it up otherwise, tempeh at worst tastes like crumbly bland nuts, shredded wheat gluten comes out 'oily' if you don't drain it but beyond that is hard to mess up, tofu just tastes like tofu you either love or hate it, and the branded burger subtitutes basically taste like an okay burger.

Where are all the disgusting options hiding?

There are a few people who think there's potentially a Yiddish aspect to "could care less". I don't know if this is accepted or not.

"In Defense of I Could Care Less": https://slate.com/human-interest/2014/03/why-i-could-care-le...

> A number of language writers have suggested that “could care less” has a sarcastic reading, conveying something like “Ha! As if there were something in the world I could care less about.” There are some American Yiddish-inflected phrases that work this way, like “I should be so lucky!” (meaning “there’s no way I’m ever gonna be that lucky”) or “I should care!” (why should I care?). Even if “could care less” didn’t originate from a sarcastic intent, it matches up well enough with these other forms in the language to help give it staying power.

"Caring About Whether You Couldn’t Care Less": https://www.dictionary.com/e/could-care-less/

I particularly like this argument from this second link:

> The argument of logic falls apart when you consider the fact that both these phrases are idioms. In English, along with other languages, idioms aren’t required to follow logic, and to point out the lack of logic in one idiom and not all idioms is…illogical. Take the expression “head over heels,” which makes far less sense than “heels over head” when you think about the physics of a somersault. It turns out “heels over head” entered English around 1400, over 250 years before “head over heels,” however, the “logical” version of this idiom hasn’t been in popular usage since the late Victorian era.
It's not a solution. Not everyone is going to get tested before they get married.
