Well, not "kind" of dark, but really dark. I mean, the cartoon couldn't be more direct in comparing the "haitian Simpsons" to the jews and other racial minorities in Nazi Germany, with the last panel being a page from the life of Anne Frank.

No, but 1kg of pasta? Are you feeding a battalion?

Yes, that's the original joke - having been taught in British schools, they learned about Nicaragua and Costa Rica.

Why this is in the school curriculum, however, is another matter, and this thread is pointing out the coincidence that the British empire colonised Nicaragua for like two centuries.

Wait wait, hold up. So Disney is providing trips to homeless kids to visit their amusement parks? Couldn't they think of another way of changing these kids lives in a more... lasting way?

But in case screw those scumbags who took the trips.

You can do anything, and all of those are edible, but pizza topping on rice? Oh man...

That's definitely not what came to mind when I read "classic Japanese cars", my mind went to stuff like the Toyota AE86 and the Miata. And from there, to the likes of the Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Subaru Impreza, Nissan Skyline, all those cars I drooled over when I used to play Gran Turismo as a kid (and still drool over, tbh).

A classic Japanese car? Like those nimble little things that drift down crazy steep mountains and stuff?

Where I work there is a data retention policy, and emails and other forms of communication (internal emails and slack, but even customer calls, etc) are deleted after a set amount of time, which varies depending on the rationale for storing that data.

There's many reasons to do this - limit disclosure issues in case of litigation, reduce storage costs, comply with PII rules around the world, etc. The guys in Legal have us file these loong ass forms about all this, including where the data is kept, security measures, etc etc etc.

I'm shocked this isn't common practice everywhere.

True, but it's less than a 10% difference. There's a very big chance the recipe will work out either way

Why the down votes? Bro asking a question and being legit curious, don't be hating on someone that's looking to challenge what they know just because it's trivial to you.

I disagree, with a passion.

It is soooo cluttered, so much useless redundant tags everywhere. Just give JSON or YAML or anything really but XML...

But to each their own i guess.
