Yes, it sounds like we are. Unfortunately, you saw how difficult that was to get aligned on something so simple. Yet, until everyone is aligned on that, the excuse making will continue. Those who know and are racist are provided free cover and distraction. Those who don’t know don’t know who to believe, so they stick with what they think they know.

There’s a big difference between saying “a majority of his supporters are racist” and “their core is 100% racism.”

Core != All ; “their core” == “a majority of his supporters” – This inherently allows for the dimwits that are so fucking stupid that they support him and his racism even though they are black as well as any other what aboutism you’d like to conjure up.

There are low-income people who constantly vote against their own best interests and ensure they will stay poor. It happens. There are stupid people in the world. By gutting education, Tump and his lackeys seek to make even more stupid people to lead around by the nose.

We can start having the other conversations when we can nail down that it is an absolute truth that Trump and his core are racist.

Scientists should and will continue debating if the models are correct. This is how science works. What needs to stop is the willful ignorance of those who suggest that climate change isn’t even happening and the politicization of the fact.

You didn’t respond to what I wrote and instead went off on a tangent. Try to stay focused. Try to read for context.

What are your thoughts on the racism?

I quoted about the racism. The election was incidental and I didn’t discuss that part at all, but did discuss the racism.

And now, you’re changing the subject. Is it so hard to stay on subject? What is your objective here? Distraction from the original topic? What are your thoughts on the racism? I really don’t care to hear you blather on about anything else.

No. Do you always jump in and answer questions for other people without identifying that you’re doing that? I asked millie why they were going off on a rant. Nobody asked you. You’re welcome to participate anyway, but you might want to make it clear that’s what’s going on.

No, I was discussing the racism. No need to change the subject.

Sure some people are bigoted and support trump but it doesn’t follow that all folks that support trump are bigoted.

Most of his supporters are bigoted and every single one of them who isn’t mentally deficient certainly knows that they are supporting a bigot, so they still don’t get a free pass.

Why are you going off on some rant about how to win the election? What you’re saying is correct about how to approach the election and that’s not the subject of this post or this conversation.

Trump and the majority of his supporters are a bunch of god-damned racists. Welcome to reality.

articles like these which insinuate that Trump’s campaign is primarily about racism

It’s not insinuating anything. It’s make a very factual statement. It’s so exhausting that you and others come to the defense. Their core is 100% racism. Accept this and then we can finally start moving forward.

Meh… never enjoyed his movies. It’s like he wants everyone to think they’re complex when they’re more like a book with all of the chapters randomized and 3 or four of them just left out for extra effect.

As long as my provider is selling me service for the device then they have a responsibility to support it and provide upgrades. I do vote with my wallet by not being on the upgrade treadmill.

It’s not like the end users typically get any choice… either the service provider makes an update available or they don’t.

Mock or be mocked… :)

To address your second claim - doing IO in tests does not mean testing IO.

I just got the sense that the author was saying that the your tests have to cover every possible failure mode of IO and that’s just silly. IO should have its own tests. This goes back to your “expectation of a contract”.

Not sure if the author doesn’t understand the purpose of mocking or if they’re just being disingenuous.

• Unit tests and mocks are only as good as one makes them.
• The code using the mock isn’t supposed to test all of the edge cases of ‘IO’. IO is supposed to have its own tests.

Anybody got any, like, advice?

Quit nosing around on your dad’s computer?

What? They’d never!
