Mujahedeen in Afghanistan went from freedom fighters to terrorists we must destroy in about the same time.
Pockets in baby clothes exist to frustrate women.


Kung fu movies aren’t real life. This is closer, and the sword loses a lot. You might dodge some thrusts, but out won’t be able to close and get an attack off most times. https://youtu.be/igaQww59NY0


Spears were really effective, wooden poles are actually quite strong and sturdy. They are also cheap, which is probably more important. Individual spears could break all the time, but you could put a metal blade on a new stick quickly, or just have sharp sticks.
I’m not sure what you mean by target the wooden part. The common use of spears would be in a formation, you couldn’t just chop one without being open to several more spears. Even then chopping one is actually quite difficult, it takes multiple hits against fully braced wood to actually cut through it. It also means you are standing where you can actually get hurt by the spear, but you can’t hit the person with the spear, this tends to be a bad strategy.


Cher has a top 40 hit in 7 decades, people thinking there were different ones is understandable.


The monorepo is more about dependency management. It’s a bigger hurdle at sufficient size to ensure everything is the right version then have a slightly unorthodox repo.
That’s already free on Twitter daily.


The Aztec had the PT cruiser existing at the same time to make sure it wasn’t the ugliest car.


It’s all related. You can’t add a thousand pounds of safety equipment and larger crumple zones and make a full size sedan that consistently gets 40+ mpg.
Companies pivoted to the SUV because it didn’t have to have absurdly good fuel efficiency, and people liked being “bigger” despite often having less space than full size sedans.


Did you measure from the car’s asshole?
The vast majority of us spend 40 hours per week on that thing, it’s a big part of our identity.


Andor is one of the best things Disney has done for Star wars, but it’s far from perfect. If you watched it between Obiwan and Ashoka it looked like a masterpiece.


I think the bigger issue is that most of the show isn’t that good. Less than half the seasons are good, and the lows from the bad seasons are really low. Watching it on a streaming scenario exposes this a lot more than reruns of the good parts.


It’s eurocentrism that basically ignores the Pacific theater. It was also mostly a 1v1 between the US and Japan as far as major powers, the Soviets had some minor skirmishes. Another reason it might be talked about less is there were less survivors, the fighting was brutal on islands and the Japanese used a lot of suicide tactics, there weren’t many people that actually experienced the whole war in the Pacific.


The way the legal system is supposed to work in the US is that juries decide on matters of fact. Lawyers are responsible for bringing evidence into court through the testimony of witnesses. Judges are responsible for ensuring that both sides play by the rules and ensuring juries aren’t exposed to evidence not related to the decision at hand.
It is a real problem if everyone switched at once, which isn’t realistic. Even with a gradual approach, at some point residential areas will require upgraded supply lines if every house has 1 or 2 240v chargers. The upgrade cost will probably start becoming an issue in roughly a decade, unless something drastic changes with power supply.
Art tends to be better when people are miserable actually. Most great works were made when people weren’t doing so hot.
You aren’t going to benefit from fixing it anyway so who cares.
