Another thing I didn't notice earlier, after perusing the implemented RFCs: More Python-like array syntax:

[1, 2, 3] ['key1': 'val1', 'key2': 'val2']

We've been on 5.4+ at work for some time now and if I'd know that a year ago it would've saved me a lot of array()s and visual noise.

Even the veggie burrito bol is in the 800 range for calories, and based on how employees heap stuff on, much more than that. It's really two meals' worth of food. Even the highest quality starch and fat filled meal is still a starch and fat filled meal.

The health hysteria over aspartame hasn't really been fully debunked, there are still countless conflicting studies about the effects of aspartame, one of the more recent ones finding the metabolic effects of artificial sweetener to be the same as an actual HFCS-sweetened soda.

Soda may or may not be bad for you, but it's certainly empty calories. He shows a picture of Diet Coke but mentions Vanilla Coke throughout. Your parent comment is on the mark.

If you read the documentation a cycle is considered a full charge and discharge of the battery. It doesn't have to be discharged or charged fully, but when you've charged the full capacity of the battery and discharged that same amount, that's a cycle.

The cycle count is in System Information, as is the age of the system. Their own docs say it should get 1000 cycles before you're down to 80% of the original capacity. They have diagnostic tools to test it at the Genius Bar and measure the actual full capacity of the battery.

Wrong. The NRA is a powerhouse because they have the money to continue to persuade Americans to care about guns and the 2nd Amendment within their twisted, absolutist interpretation of it.

If you read between the lines it really isn't about a management style or structure, it's about treating human beings like fucking human beings.

If you're a more "serious" cyclist than you have the money to burn for more expensive, specialized equipment, not a middle of the road phone mount.

No, let's. If homosexuals should be allowed to experience their sexuality than why not permit them to fulfill their emotional, romantic, and other needs? It's such an artificial line to draw and we certainly can discuss both gay marriage and the legality of homosexuality in the same discussion.

Haha, the one time in my life having an outdated credit card on file paid off.

I think that says more about you than them.

They do, except when it's a desktop-targeted image carousel with no support for touch events other than simple presses.

This city search is the worst one I've ever used. Devs, please test your sites, even the toy projects.
