Yeah he almost has to say it, regardless of his thoughts, at least to keep up appearances, if he wants to appear christian.


Ahh right! Thanks for correcting me. Now that you mention it I remember too. It also makes sense, a year is roughly 365.2425 days long. Add 0.25 (one out of four), subtract 0.01 (one out of hundred), add another 0.0025 (2.5 out of thousand which is 1 out of 400)


Leap years are each fourth year, except each hundredth year, except each thousandth fourhundredth year.
1896 leap year
1900 not leap year
1904 leap year
…
1996 leap year
2000 leap year
2004 leap year
…
2096 leap year
2100 not leap year
2104 leap year
Then you just arrange the 10 year window in different positions to overlap 1 to 3 leap years to reveal the three outcomes of the bug.
- / - - - / - - - /
- - / - - - / - - -
- - 0 - - - / - - -
- is a normal year, / is a leap year, 0 is an exceptional non-leap year.


Sure, here’s one example for each case:
1 day off: 3650 days before 1907-01-01 is 1897-01-02
2 days off: 3650 days before 2027-01-01 is 2017-01-03
3 days off: 3650 days before 2025-01-01 is 2015-01-04


The python version seems buggy as fuck. Depending on which year you run it it’s off by 1-3 days


It’s going to be difficult to decide how much inflation comes from which bad policy, because there are multiple.
That up there is aimed at nothing of significance, and not even funny.
Some of them were funny, but if even the bad ones get wide distribution, then it just makes me wonder.
Did Newsom get a new PR firm or something? For about a week screenshots of these stupid in content and satirical in tone tweets have kept showing up on social media.


Switzerland. After the Sonderbundskrieg they took inspiration from the US Constitution in some things to reform Switzerland as a Republic, instead of just a Confederation. For example the two chamber parliament. The way the Senate represents the states with equal weights our Ständerat represents the Cantons with equal weights. A big difference is that Switzerland later adopted proportional representation, so we didn’t suffer the same mathematical trend to a two party system.

You could take a page from the book of your sister republic. 7 person executive council. Currently the members come from 4 parties, 2-2-2-1.


Wow that’s fucked. In my country the kids going to school is the parents legal responsibility, they can actually get fined if the child is delinquent. But never would the child be arrested.
I’m very sorry that happened to you, both the sexual assault and the police treatment.


The questionnaire respondents are requested to leave those out. See my other comment. I dug up some detail.


Clinton signed his crime bill
I wasn’t familiar, thanks for the pointer. This rhetoric “though on crime” has been going on from before my birth it seems.
We cannot take our country back until we take our neighborhoods back. Four years ago this crime issue was used to divide America. I want to use it to unite America. I want to be tough on crime and good for civil rights. You can’t have civil justice without order and safety.


I’m unfamiliar with the term field arrest. If I get this right, this is what happens when you get arrested for a misdemeanour on site, cited and then immediately let go? Possibly with a requirement of turning up to a police station for booking, or to a court date?
I read a bit of the paper, and it seems they are simply using the data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997.
The relevant NLS topical guide says the following:
NLSY97 youth respondents are asked whether they have ever been arrested by the police or taken into custody for an illegal or delinquent offense (not including arrests for minor traffic violations) and the total number of times this has happened.
And looking up the phrasing in the questionnaire is also exactly the same
Have you ever been arrested by the police or taken into custody for an illegal or delinquent offense (do not include arrests for minor traffic violations)?
So I guess it would depend on whether respondents consider a field arrest an arrest and report it.


All of those sound insanely high. If you take a group of 10 random adult men from the US, roughly four of them have been arrested?
Is a lot of it for underage drinking because that law is so far from lived reality?


Perfect, thank you!


here’s the link, sorry it’s reddit

“When a population gets feral, a little snip snip keeps things in control. Could offer incentives (Air Jordans, etc.).”
Holy shit. What a piece of shit.
But that’s exactly the lesson. You help the weak supressed civilians against the powerful authoritarian racist military.
Religion is not the part that mattered in the Holocaust.
