Why did you mention them not being US citizens then? 🤔

Could be Canadian, eh?

My own reading of that amendment is that it puts requirements on the US government, period. It does not limit things to US citizens.

Of course, I know that's not the way the courts interpret the amendment. 😔

Can you give some examples? Do you mean the Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage in 2015? The #metoo movement in 2017? Black Lives Matter protests in 2020?

What do you think has gone too far?

You can be both?

My point is that if your variable can be None then you need the same pattern for the length check.

So for the Pythonic version:

if (foo is not None) and not foo:
   ...

For the explicit length check:

if (foo is not None) and (len(foo) == 0):
  ...

Honestly you're probably better off using type hints and catching such things with static checks and not adding the None check.

You'd need to explicitly check for None if using the len() construct as well, so this doesn't change the point of the article.

My ad blocker has blocked all pictures on this article, so I can't say. 😄

Thailand has had a weird strictness around the king for a long time now.

We've had a similar ban in the Netherlands for a year or two now. Mobile phones were already not allowed in classes. Kids seem to have survived.

China buys American food, I think.

I mean, the stock market is still up 5% or so from a year ago. Which doesn't refute your point that it's disconnected from reality, but rather that the wealthy people are not exactly suffering due to a single day or even a few weeks of market losses.
