They had a scientist saying the Arctic could be "ice-free" in the summer by 2013. The new forecast is for that to happen sometime mid-century.

As a non-native reader it seemed pretty clear to me as well. I guess knowing some French and having read a lot of fantasy novels helps.

Hey Amit! I remember you and your articles fondly from my RotMG days.

Given the context, it's a bit ironic that you fail to spell "Colombians" correctly . I mostly agree with your assessment though. For most latinos it takes several years working full time in English to get to the level you mention.

It's futile to ask for things to be removed from the lexicon. Language advances and those 16-year-olds will decide how they speak now and in the future.

I think this is already outdated but a fitting response to your comment could also be "ok boomer"

The customer review blurb on the site is the best I've seen: "... has nothing in common with a good service and especially a high seriousness" - AfD Lower Saxony

"I'm helping out with a curriculum to help slum kids to (web) program in Thailand in English, but in a way that they can learn English as well"

Is there somewhere one could read more about this? Sounds nifty.

How do you define "hacker"?

Pointing out wrong "facts" that are used as arguments isn't relevant?

I seriously doubt that, I've lived in 3 of the countries (fairly large ones) where WhatsApp is THE communications and in all of those, at least to my knowledge, most (mostly young) people send money electronically through banks, sometimes more modern digital versions like Nubank in Brazil, but there's no all-encompassing default solution.

Venmo is irrelevant in (all?) most of the markets where Whatsapp is utterly dominating. In February it was reported that the platform has 2 billion active users.

I have been fined by the police at 4 AM for the exact same thing.
