That's just what they want you to think.

I heard that if her white van drops below 30 the cat explodes.

I mean if it was a realistic list around 4 (not sure how many were actually released) of the top ten would be fantastic four films.

This is just a list of "superhero films everyone has seen that were kinda mid". I want a list of the films that were so bad I've not heard of them, because they crashed and burned so spectacularly.

Grammatically, introducing "her" doesn't reduce the ambiguity.

The sentence still could refer to her ordering someone to steal her handbag. E.g. "the crime minister had her partner killed" will almost always refer to a murder for hire.

"The crime minister's bag was stolen" is less ambiguous. But it's English, everything is going to be a bit vague.

Probably for the same reason we write -1 for the first integer below zero, but 1 instead of +1 for the first one above.

It might be more consistent to write more, but we're lazy and everyone knows what it means.

He fucked up dropping out as well as everything else. People can still vote 🪱 in a bunch of states.

The original case was just bullshit made up by a bored journalist.

In 2007, an article in the American Psychologist found "no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive".

I just went looking for this. Here's a link to the podcast for everyone else: https://pca.st/episode/b8388458-0062-47c5-a259-fae295a45305

I remember playing Max Payne. There was some battle in a bar against a guy with a shotgun. If you timed it right between reloads you could run up to the guy, stand on the bar so your guns were exactly level with his face and empty two Uzi clips point blank into his face before he could reload.

Then you would run out of ammo and he would one shot kill you.

It really comes down to what you're used to. If you use Windows tools then you already know many of the workarounds for Windows and you don't know the tools that haven't been ported there.

For example, you know not to use Python directly, but that you have to install anaconda instead, or whatever the current problems with Python development on Windows are.

The big obvious thing that you can't get away from is that you have to do things differently if you have develop for two different OSs with a view to deploying on Linux.

In particular support for shell scripts is crap on Windows. I could learn powershell or there's workarounds using WSL and a bunch of other stuff that I don't need to care about, but I'd rather not bother.

I mean coding is difficult enough as it is, I wouldn't choose to use an OS that makes it even harder.

I use Linux because it makes my life easier. It has better support for development. Some of the other stuff is maybe not as easy or polished, but the support for dev tools and the ease of deploying to from local machines to servers that are also running Linux makes up for it.

If I wanted more effort I'd still be using Windows. It would force me to work on cross platform development and deployment. The idea that there's value in making things unnecessarily hard is just weird. I want Linux to be as simple as possible to use, so I can spend that effort on things that actually matter.
