No idea. That's the problem. ICE isn't bothering to determine if the people it deports have proper documentation or not. The plethora of incorrectly arrested and/or deported people we DO know about, we only know because journalists and citizens did the investigating. Which is why ICE is working harder and harder to hide any details about what they're doing and who they're arresting.

The Supreme Court is about to ~~let~~ use religion to intentionally ruin public education.

Oof, this speaks to me. I hang up on marketing calls 3-4 times a week, and boy this does sound way more satisfying than just tapping a touchscreen.

If you've only ever been exposed to the depiction of non-verbal, extremely sensitive-to-stimuli, routine-oriented, potentially-violent, autistic kids, that you see on TV, you could be forgiven for thinking this.

But, no, that's only an exceptionally small window of what autism is. Most cases of autism aren't so severe, and most people learn coping strategies as they grow up that let them live relatively-normal lives. Even severe cases can do this, but it tends to take more time, and more focused, expert care.

You probably know autistic adults, and aren't even aware. Or, potentially, you just write them off as being loners or not good with people or having some other character flaw, that ultimately stems from their coping mechanisms.

My big reason would be "it hurts readability". That is, when writing code, readibility for others who aren't familiar with it (including future me) is my top-priority, and that means indentation and alignment are HIGHLY important, and if I spend the time to write code with specific indentation and alignment, to make it readable at a glance, I want to be certain that it's always going to display exactly that way. Tabs specifically break that guarantee, because they're subject to editor settings, which means shit like the below example can occur:

I write the following code with an editor that uses a tab size of 4.

myObject.DoSomething(
    someParameter:      "A",
    someOtherParameter: "B",
    value:              "C");

If someone pulls this up in an editor that uses a tab size of 8, they get...

myObject.DoSomething(
    someParameter:          "A",
    someOtherParameter:     "B",
    value:                          "C");

Not really a big deal, in this simple case, but it illustrates the point.

My second reason would be that it makes code more difficult to WRITE, I.E. it's not that hard to insert spaces when you mean to insert tabs, considering that you're not LITERALLY using only tabs just only tabs for indentation and alignment. And if you do accidentally have spaces mixed in, you're not going to be able to tell. The guy on another machine with different editor settings will, though.

I'm aware there are fonts that can make spaces and tabs visible and distinct, but that sounds like a NIGHTMARE to write and read code with. I mentioned above, my top priority is easy readability, and introducing more visual noise to make tabs and spaces distinct can only hurt readability.

Denying that the logo used to have a cornucopia is a thing? Sheesh, TIL.

Sick. I've tried a few times in the past to find a frontend for postgres that I liked, and was never able to. Will have to give this a try.

The most straightforward thing to do, on a private LAN, is to make all your own certs, from a custom root cert, and then manually install that cert as "trusted" on each machine. If none of the machines on this network need to accessed from outside the LAN, then you're golden.
