I mean, you could just use a vaguely smarter filter. A tiny "L"LM might have different problems, but not this one.

Mmm, race conditions, just like mama used to make.

Criticising the Dear Leader is racist, probably.

Based just on the name even, snake oil. WTF is a "bioelectric wave"?

I mean, I don't even see a contradiction with OP there. The big boy stick comes out, Western politicians are seen doing something and don't get blamed for the higher prices on "TIEMAM banana-shaped egg holder for children yellow plastic food container", a few of the non-Western brown guys die, but not most of them, and history continues. I don't think that there's a good reason was implied.

A multi-material 3D inkjet printer. Most of the rest of science news too.

We have just set up a fund for poor countries effected by climate change.

Everyone knows it's a shitty photocopy of Tex-Mex. We eat it anyway because it's greasy, cheap food with a strong but not offensive flavour of some kind.

Damn that's subtle.

Newtonian physics also has gravity decreasing with height, no need to get out the big guns.

I've seen the design and I thought it made good sense mechanically, but I hadn't considered this issue. I wonder if stand designs are getting wider too, as a result.

The standard itself is 7-bit, since wires were deemed more valuable than endpoint logic for the teletype machines way back then. If you're running it on an 8-bit byte machine you could do it either way, although I'm not sure what the point in parity checking individual characters is. Modern software uses 0.

You could have "empty arrays" in a language if you wanted. The real reason is that you start with an offset of zero as you read an array from memory at hardware level, and so this way address is just "start address + element size * element number".
