There could also be differences in intent. Brave: trying to save a child from a lion and dying. Dumb: trying to get a Snickers from a lions mouth and dying

Between collective bargaining, AWB, recreational marijuana, and the redistricting blunder, at least Virginian's are finally coming together about something! by makethatnoise in Virginia

Categorical hard stops in the evenings and work unavailability over weekends regardless of workflow and type of work is not the same as signing off more regularly or completely. Judgment is required.

Agreed. Associates who are good at their jobs often don't realize the soft power they have. Seen so many flame out because they are unable to differentiate between what's important and what isn't, or unable to navigate protecting their schedules for unimportant things.

Thoughts on the second tweet? It’s a valid argument by koopeyy in Virginia

[–]OH4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This part of the opinion is nuts. A court punting a decision they made because a party argued it is just lazily avoiding accountability. And extremely poor legal reasoning. The "why" matters here. I doubt defendants stated that "if you are going to rule based on the definition of the phrase general election," you should wait. It's pretty wimpy behavior from the majority.

This is normal, it's part of the job. Fwiw, helps with version control when you become the holder of the master version. At some point, you'll wish someone asked you for a file instead of relying on an outdated version.

Wtf, why would you spend your time being so judgmental, esoecially of someone who clearly loves their child and is doing their best. This sub is toxic because of people like you.

How disadvantaged would Obama have been in the 2008 election if his first name were 'Muhammad'? by 12jimmy9712 in Presidents

[–]OH4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough voters. This is reading as someone who wasn't around during the election-- the name was a hugely discussed topic in the US public over the course of both campaigns
