  • I agree with this with every piece of my heart. I'd like more than anything for American non-maga's to take back the American flag (and the gadsden for that matter). Let them have their maga and thin blue line, but ceding the American flag to them is essentially admitting that you don't want to be a part of this country, which only makes maga's feel more comfortable about labeling you as an "other". I know, I grew up in a conservative family, and still live in a conservative state. It's a self-exacerbating problem.

    I can sympathize with those that really are done with the country, but I'm not ready to give up yet. We can flip the script. Pride marches should be flooded with American flags. Civil rights too. Force conservatives to come to terms with the fact that they're no more American than the trans-commie over there waving the big-ass American flag. If we're so lucky to make it through this and come out the other side a better country, I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to changing the flag. But right now I believe it makes strategic sense to claim the 50-stars. Fly your other flags with it if you don't want to be confused for a conservative, then you're essentially projecting "hey, I'm American too, dumbass!".

    TL;DR: the American left needs stop being so self-concious about what waving an American flag says about them and realize that a.) non-maga's waving the American flag can be a powerful propaganda tool, and b.) they can take it back.

  • Did you take a lot of college level math courses? I too remember feeling like it was really tedious doing all the steps to rearrange an equation when I already knew the solution before I picked up my pencil. But that's all algebra is: the art of rearranging equations. I know what you mean, simple formulas like the ones above are frustrating because they're easy with to solve without any manipulation, but that's just the foundation where you gotta start. In later courses like calculus the math gets complicated enough that there's simply no getting it at a glance, it has to be rearranged and broken down in stages until you get to something like the formula above. Personally, if I hadn't learned those skills through doing the boring show-your-work-even-though-it's-trivia types of problems, I either would've figured it out on my own in later courses or washed out.

  • I've kinda noticed this block when working with non-developers attempting low-code and no-code platforms. Anecdotally, non-coders tend to assume that knowing how to code is the hard part of software development. It's really not though, there's tons of resources to learn any language you want for free, and cs students cover all of the basics in their first year. The actually hard part (well one of them) is knowing what to code: the data structures and algorithms. Pro_code, low-code, or no-code, there's just no way around not knowing how to design a working, efficient algorithm or a clean, scalable database schema. Ironically, for anything but the most trivial problems, the lack of maturity in low-code platforms tends to only make the algorithm harder to implement.

  • This is the cutting-edge of my understanding so if I'm wrong somebody call me out, but I think because gravity is warping space-time and not actually pulling anything, we wouldn't feel an inertia change. Our inertia would be maintained, but the space-time we're going through would suddenly be shaped different, so we'd follow a new path

  • Those lights are supposed to be a sealed assembly, so if there's condensation then you need to replace the assembly. If the shop didn't replace the assembly themselves then they're never going to accept responsibility for an original post-collision taillight assembly.

    It's worth looking up the cost of a replacement assembly part and watching a video on how to replace before you decide to go back to the shop though. I don't know about your car specifically, you'll have to do the research, but on most cars I've worked on this is an easy repair. Good luck

  • Print and cursive doesn't make much difference in the case of the letter 'd', either way you make the counter-clockwise circle, strike up, and trace the strike back down without lifting the pen or pencil.
