I disagree, when you’re talking about a percentage change in the total value of an asset, which is the same as the slope of the line if the graph starts at zero, the best way to represent it is the graph starting at zero.

otherwise every graph would be the equivalent of a slope 1 or -1 line.

Yes, there is. Republicans are straight up evil though.

sesame Street was bought by HBO some time ago. So, AT&T owns big bird.

don’t be coy, go ahead and list five of these direct actions you think Democratic lawmakers or others should take.

At least they have some principles - but again, Republicans and their villianesque ideological leaders have executed a systematic destruction of American democracy. Blaming Democrats is not a path to reversing thaf.

Did you miss the two impeachments? Investigations (admittedly slow-walked by Merrick Garland and hamstrung by DoJ policy) into major national security offenses? Dissolution of the Trump foundation?

What does “spine” look like, in your model? Because “murder” and “civil war”, which I’ve seen people here suggesting, are profoundly self-defeating options.

it’s almost like constant baseless shittalking about them cause people not to vote for them, which leads to them not having a majority position that would allow them to affect policy.

Weird how you name Democrats when Republicans are responsible and the Republican president was her co-conspirator in child rape.

interesting syntax mashup, a bit pascal-y, a bit SML-family-ish, actors with first-class sugar, etc.

but if you have a clean slate, why include nullable values?

JS is growing a real date library, about 20 years too late and after several libraries filled the gap.

Hopefully webasm will enable less hackish languages for app development. (Not that Java, C#, Python, etc… didn’t fall prey to the Date/Time/Calendar leaky abstraction as well, but geez at least they have integers)
