Roaches don't spread nearly as much disease as 'squiters, and IIRC are actually important in some ecosystems.

Yep, that will fix the underlying weakness! /s

This and things like banning short sells are bad news on two fronts, in that they both reveal a problem and will be ineffective at solving it.

Alright, I'll never, ever write something this way now. Good to know.

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

Underrated answer. Meritocracy is a lie, folks, even within the West. If you do everything perfectly you will climb a little bit, and only on average. All the counterexamples you're thinking of are people who won a lottery of some kind. And of course, birth is also a lottery.

I’m white and not Ukrainian though, so my experience is mostly Germans telling me that this would never apply to me,

Which, of course, is fucked up on it's own.

That's pretty much bang on.

You learn pretty fast that you're an idiot and yes, you can write something, read it back many times, and still be wrong.

Assuming it's built well. As someone else pointed out, it doesn't look quite right here.

Instructions unclear, clay blown away by optical radiation pressure.

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

Free in both Gaza and the West Bank is the main one. "From the river to the sea excluding a 40 km gap roughly in the middle" just doesn't have the same ring. There's also the one-state interpretation, where the Jews are still there but living alongside Palestinians as equals (nice but currently implausible IMO).

Taken without any context, it actually says nothing about Israel at all, or the exact nature of said Palestinian freedom somewhere between those two landmarks. With context it means more, but the context varies considerably depending on whether it's, say, a peace-loving Jew or Hamas saying it.

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".
