Tangentism

You could write that as 1 line:

[ -z "$var" ] && echo "empty" || echo "no it aint"

Maybe they should try looking a bit closer to home with that they were rescued from bankruptcy by Russian oligarch donations and one of their favoured sons awarded a position in the House of Lords to the billionaire son of a former KGB director!

What an amazing coincidence that number matches the minerals deal that trump was offering them!

That's still an ideology

People splutter with the "but their motto is 'protect & serve'" without ever asking "who"

I was reading a good blog the other day from a guy that runs his law form entirely from a FOSS stack from home & uses 'hugo' to generate flat html files from markdown for his blog & mkdocs for static files.

Typical foodie blog with having to read about her life story before getting to the actual recipe!

$3500 per episode sounds like she was going a bit overboard & could easily refactor her costs without sacrificing quality

And you're a bigger fool for thinking they're not.

They might be stupid. They're certainly incompetent but they most definitely have an ideology.

They often walk away saying how I've provided a new perspective, and that they weren't aware of something I said and it gave them something to think about, only to turn around the next day as if they hadn't heard a single word from me.

Classic example of the Gell-Mann amnesia

I saw some of it & the guy is barely coherent. If he came into work like that, I would have him breathalysed & drug screened!

"Plenty of space on pavement outside NY Hilton for other billionaires to take a snooze" might work!

He (allegedly) didn't get the ones we all wanted but he showed people the path and that puts the shits up the rest of them!
