works with any holiday, have fun

for example, much of the English-speaking world celebrates some derivative of Armistice Day on 11 November, and a minority celebrates Martinmas

but you COULD be celebrating Old Halloween

1 weird trick

did you know you can celebrate any holiday a second time 11 days later if you just prefix the holiday name with “Old”

i’d be more surprised to find a Core Team which *is* accountable, in this realm of software development

« More broadly, the liberal accommodationist strategy of a Code of Conduct masks and upholds a centralization of power around the software project and those who control it (who have complete and total jurisdiction over the enforcement of said Code), placing oppressed parties in a position of service and subservience rather than working to ensure their own empowerment and self‐determination. »

« It was hard for her to comprehend that the spiky bits weren’t a natural part of Rangi’s body. » oh right this is back when Spikes were a Fire Nation thing

« “Don’t criticize Yun’s past life,” Rangi said, whacking her shoulder with a mittened hand. “The Avatars tread paths of great destiny. Every action they take is meaningful.”

They meaningfully passed another three dull, meaningful hours »

“interesting” here is acting as a shorthand for “actually interesting”, not “having rare or unexpected qualities”, which would render this statement paradoxical

there are some people on this website who you would expect to be interesting and really aren’t, and there are some people on this website who you would not expect to be interesting who really are

just legitimately had to use this technique; a·m·a

; {
const values = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].values()
for (const value of values) {
if (value % 2) values.next()
console.log(value)
}
}
