Python, but this is actually defined and documented behavior.
Edit: to illustrate what I mean:
not() # True
this actually is not () (the lack of space makes it look like a function), () is a tuple, in python an empty collection returns False, this is to make checks simpler. You can type:
if my_list:
do something
instead of
if len(my_list) > 0:
do something
not negates it so you get True
str(not()) # 'True'
converts resulting bool type into a string representation
min(str(not())) # 'T'
This might feel odd, but that's also documented. min() not only allows to compare two numbers like it is in most languages, but you can also provide a sequence of values and it will return the smallest one.
String is a sequence of letters.
Letters are comparable according to ASCII (so you can do sorting). In ASCII table capital letters are first, so the 'T' is the smallest value.
ord(min(str(not()))) # 84
this just converts 'T' to Unicode value which is 84
range(ord(min(str(not())))) # range(0, 84)
This creates a sequence of numbers from 0 to 83
sum(range(ord(min(str(not()))))) # 3486
This works like min() except adds up all the numbers in the sequence together, so in our case 0+1+2+3+...+83 = 3486
chr(sum(range(ord(min(str(not())))))) # 'ඞ'
reverse of ord(), converts Unicode value to a character.
But we also can't just wait and think everything will be fine by next election.
The current administration wants us to be a dictatorship. When they talk about third term, they wants us to hey used to the fact that he will stay in power until his death.
IMO, everyone in UK should be protesting and demanding to rejoin EU. Russia successfully was able to make UK withdraw through disinformation, and this only made UK weaker.
Speaking of radio. They used doge to kill VOA and Radio Free Europe funding (perhaps that's where the "ask the congress" comes from). As I understand a judge reinstated the funding, so the next thing trump did was shuttinh down the satellite that was responsible for broadcasting to Russia.
We absolutely needs to fight. He can only get more power if we surrender it (through being scared or apathy) and once he has it, it will be much harder to get it back.
There could be additional reasons, but the main is why they sent people to a foreign jail is so no one can force them to bring them back. This is why we can't just let go and accept it.
I am fortunate enough that my family don't have to worry about being undocumented, but I still find it absolutely reprehensible what this administration is doing and I don't want those kid kidnappers anywhere near my kid's school or any school.
Using kids for attacking families of undocumented parents shows how truly evil the current administration is. It's a Nazi level shit.
Trump paid to send them there, and plans to even send American citizens.
US has its own prisons, and many are for profit, so they generate money from prisoners.
Now questions is why would we send people to a foreign country, and pay them to keep prisoners?
The answer is simple: CECOT is used to outsource getting rid of people. And unless US continuously pays them to hold them (which I doubt it was more than one time fee), CECOT has no benefit of keeping those people alive.
