Met -te- voorzichtig zijn weet Nederland weer eens flink te wrijven in de eigen vlek.
Door eenvoudig op minimale wijze slechts te wijzen op het feit dat dit 'niet past in de huidige rechtsgang' was de hele kous afgedaan. Ook dan was de oppositie boos geworden, maar was het allemaal niet opgevallen in de hele stroom van afwijzingen.
Maar nee ... Nu de volle aandacht

TRAVIS: Would he do that?
SERVALAN: Oh, yes. He thought it through very carefully. He wouldn't even reveal the location of the laboratory until I'd agreed to all his terms.
TRAVIS: Which were?

Im using case_when() quite a lot, case_match() is new to me: #rstats

A general vectorised switch() — case_match
This function allows you to vectorise multiple switch() statements. Each case is evaluated sequentially and the first match for each element determines the corresponding value in the output vector. If no cases match, the .default is used. case_match() is an R equivalent of the SQL "simple" CASE WHEN statement. Connection to case_when() While case_when() uses logical expressions on the left-hand side of the formula, case_match() uses values to match against .x with. The following two statement…

Making this a subtoot so I don't come across as smug or condescending...
My decision to stop using github when they started providing services to ICE back in ~2016 felt awkward at times but has been feeling really good in hindsight right now.
I see a bunch of people now saying "why boycott X company over some "minor" transgression or political capitulation (or over a "neutral" stance on LLM code). The answer is: it shows what their values are, which predicts their future behavior, especially under the tilted playing field of capitalism. I'm by no means perfect at this and I don't think shouting at people to boycott is a good idea for several reasons. People should boycott what they want to, for their own reasons. But I am posting this to try to help others be aware of the upsides of taking action when confronted with "subtle" evidence of corporate unvalues.

LŠ, je suis tout Š fait d’accord avec M. Ganzer: «Ce que je constate, ce sont des manquements. Et des manquements ne doivent pas arriver dans un pays tel que le nôtre.»

In another Chicago suburb, not far from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility that has drawn protests over detentions, a sign at the manger outside the Urban Village Church says

Church nativity displays on immigration draw praise, outrage in Illinois and Massachusetts
Nativity scenes at some churches are sparking fierce debates. At Lake Street Church in Evanston, Illinois, the baby Jesus lies with zip-tied wrists in the kind of emergency blankets given ICE detainees. At St. Susanna Parish in Dedham, Massachusetts, the manger sits empty, beneath a sign reading “ICE was here.” Supporters say Jesus, Mary and Joseph were refugees, comparing them to immigrant communities facing federal raids. Critics call the displays political and sacrilegious. The controver…
