Using breaks is completely standard in some situations. Using breaks and continues can be very useful and still end in clearly understood code in some other situations. It is however, very easy to end up with nonsense code using both, and if its an introductory course just telling you to ignore them isn’t that crazy an idea.
50% tends to be the approximate price a retailer will have purchased an item for from its distributor. If they are selling something at 50% they are likely losing money on that sale given operating costs. It’s either a loss leader or they are emptying back stock.
If the intent was to keep up with inflation in a way that maximizes local profits, pegging to the US dollar makes no sense. The games wont sell at this price in any appreciable number. Steam could have easily used other tools, like some dynamic pricing model, to maximize local profits. The only thing pegging to the US dollar does is combat key resales, as the comment you are replying to implies.
I think the mainstream liberal take is probably very aligned with yours. You have to go further left to get a different opinion. But I hold such an opinion so to give my perspective: I don’t give 2 shits about punishment for punishments sake. If anything I only see that as causing more harm. What I care about is reducing net harm. There have been countless studies that have shown that severity of punishment is an extremely poor deterrent. Often times perpetrators are more concerned with the social impact getting caught will have on their immediate contacts over how long they’ll be jailed for, and frankly, just don’t think that they’ll get caught at all. If we take that for true, and my goal of reducing net harm, the value of jail becomes reforming those who can be reformed, and keeping those who can’t locked away from the rest of society. Neither of these things are intrinsically tied to any period of time. And because of how we treat ex-cons in society currently recidivism rates get worse for having been in prison. Possibly because they can’t get legal work, and possibly because the social reputation damage has already been done, so that fear is no longer holding them back.
Assuming you’re an atheist (because if not the answer is your god), the closest answer we have is the Golden Rule. Just don’t be too strict about assuming everyone is too similar to yourself when applying it.
This is the third movie they’ve shelved in the last couple years, so seems unlikely (for context there have only been like 20 films ever shelved this late into production)
If they thought they’d make a much larger profit by releasing it, they would. Likely they think it’s shit (rightly or wrongly) and isn’t worth putting a marketing budget behind before they could see any gains.
About 10% of gold usage is in technology. This has been steady for many years. Jewelry and Investments can trade off. But yeah, basically its just mostly values because its a rare shiny rock.
All the data I’ve ever seen suggests that its the left thats been slowly moving, and the right has been largely anchored where it started for decades (this ignores trump and post trump, which might change that?). It’s a bad thing that the right has remained anchored on horrible positions, but its a different problem.
Its pretty simple: Their businesses were built when it was cheap to borrow money. The pandemic caused large inflation. In response feds all around the world have greatly increased prime interest rates. Now their ‘run large deficits to expand’ business model is more expensive and they need to compete against increasingly valuable bonds as a competing source of investment. All of this means they need to aggressively chase improved profitability.
My bullshit detector is going off hard over this article, and I’m a vegetarian. With those disclaimers out of the way, if you think the suffering of a cat and cow are equal, and accept that some people are going to eat meat, you get a hell of a lot more meat out of a cow than a cat.

It looks fine at smaller resolutons. Whoever setup the largest resolution just fucked up.
Adblock detection has literally already been ruled on though (it needs consent). I’m sure there are nuances above my understanding, but it’s not that simple.
He’s not criminally responsible as the person that was holding the gun. There is a huge argument for him being responsible as one of the producers that was cutting corners on production costs.
Going without a basic macro nutrient making you feel bad doesn’t mean its addictive. You’d feel like shit if you tried to go without oxygen too. Your body doesn’t need as much sugar as many consume, but it’s more than nothing.
It could be ignorance, but as a Canadian of European descent, I’d have claimed we were passively shitty more than actively shitty.
No it’s not.
You might be able to learn more about what you are thinking about by looking into memes (in the Dawkins sense of the word).
That’s a weird way to frame things given that a sizable majority of North Irelanders don’t want to reunify.
