They do, they're probably just hoping the advertisers don't and keep paying for more ad space.

Oh crap. I shouldn't have said there was a meeting. Oh crap. I definitely shouldn't have said it was a secret. Oh crap. I absolutely should not have said it was to reserve all our 2nm chip capacity.

Oh, it's too hot today.

(I'll attempt this based on my understanding of both)

Pouring a cup of juice is something an adult needs to be involved with.

sudo is when you ask for permission to pour your own cup of juice. You ask an adult, they give you the cup and the juice, and then you're responsible for pouring it. If the adult isn't paying attention they may leave the fridge open for you to go back for more juice or another beverage, but otherwise you're limited to the amount of juice the adult has given you.

run0 is when the adult just gets you a cup of juice. You tell them what you want, they go and pour the juice, and just give you the cup with the juice in it. You never enter the kitchen, so you don't have access to the fridge, just your cup of juice.

So soup sounds like an idea and is actually an idea. Checks out.

Here's a response I've seen about this around the net for a while now that feels right.

--

"Actually, the “you’re welcome/no problem” issue is simply a linguistics misunderstanding. Older ppl tend to say “you’re welcome,” younger ppl tend to say “no problem.” This is because for older people the act of helping or assisting someone is seen as a task that is not expected of them, but is them doing extra, so it’s them saying, ‘I accept your thanks because I know I deserve it.”

“No problem, however, is used because younger people feel not only that helping or assisting someone is a given and expected but also that it should be stressed that your need for help was no burden to them (even if it was).”

“Basically, older people think help is a gift you give, younger people think help is a requirement.”

What's even wilder is if you look at the code of that package, all it does is include the is-odd package and then return !is-odd. And the is-odd package isn't much better, it does some basic checks on the input and then returns n % 2 === 1.

I've been seeing clips from Ready Player One recently and this reminded me of the main bad guy's philosophy on advertising in the OASIS.

we estimate we can sell up to 80% of an individual's visual field before inducing seizures

Can't help but feeling there's some parallels there.

Fixed it for you. Guarantee if they found TikTok doing this that ban would be going through today.

GM says Apple and Android have access to a ton of data on consumer habits in their vehicles that those systems don't share with the auto manufacturer, so they're ditching those systems in favour of their own that gives them direct access to all that user data under the guise of a safety change.

...gonna be honest here, I've never given the name enough thought to make the connection. Just assumed it was all about clowning on console and mobile gamers and that was it.
