They try to make a distinction when referring to kilocalories as Calories, it's literally just that Calorie (kcal) is capitalized and calorie (cal) is not.

It's a dumb system.

Depending on the manufacture date, the side windows on the model Y may be laminated glass. If that's the case with yours, window smashers won't work on those.

Which of these candidates do you think will be more willing to have their minds changed with protests and petitions?

Nothing is going to be easy or perfect, but we can at least choose the most likely candidate that is slightly more aligned with our desired outcome and then fight for what is needed.

It's percentage of the entire population, if you organized everyone from lowest to highest IQ, what percentage of the entire population would you need to include for them to be in the top. It's a little clearer when a point of interest is near the top. E.G. "person is in the top 1% of people in terms of wealth."

A less kind way to say it is '91% of people have a higher IQ than this person'.

I imagine if my occupation includes carrying a gun, interacting with citizens, and a historically high rate of extrajudicial deaths amongst people I am supposed to be protecting. A publicly accessible camera would be beneficial to easing the minds of those I interact with and providing evidence for any actual instances where I felt my life was threatened.

The democratic convention hasn't happened, Biden was only ever just the presumed candidate. Trump is the oldest U.S. presidential candidate there has ever been.

I imagine that he is equating the spectrum back to the rainbow, where red is the 'top' of the visible arch when a single rainbow is seen from the ground.

Of course the outer ring from a double rainbow flips the order of the colours, but that's probably being needlessly pedantic.
