    Still no idea.

  • India is being left to die in the heat | Modi has denied climate change for years. Now, as the death toll climbs uncounted, his government offers branding instead of protection.

  • I’m just another internet rando, but I did get this exact email on my work account maybe 2 weeks ago. I thought it was so clever I didn’t even forward it to our cybersecurity team.

  • Right. And that somethingElse is probably not Unix

  • This is true, but the scale goes both ways. For every dollar of public education you get $1+X out. This has been true for the vast majority of public education programs for at least the past half century. So public education is literally a good investment.

  • 'soon' is a relative term – it'll still take a few million years

  • greebles!!
