Guess udemy was too affordable and that needed to be changed. In a sane world this would be prevented by anti trust legislation.

Christmas is just a name that's used for it in English. You don't ever pronounce it like Christ the name. There's no point in using another name in a kids movie because then little children might not know it's the same holiday.

In my country the name has nothing to do with Christ. We celebrate Jõulud. Though the tradition itself is older than the name. Meaning the whos can celebrate the exact same holiday with no implication of christ existing if you just switch languages.

Just because we now call it yule (or Christmas in English speaking countries) doesn't mean it's no longer about the solstice/winter season like it was for thousands of years. Christ gets near zero attention for Christmas in my country. I've NEVER seen a nativity scene IRL.

Christ is just a later addition to a much older tradition for a lot of people. Not even an important one. Of course that's for us atheists and pagans, not Christians.

Yes, Norway's oil production is state owned, so every Norwegian benefits from it rather than a select few.

Also true, but he's definitely obsessed with Reiner specifically too since Reiner has criticized him in the past.

Looks like Donny has Reiner Derangement Syndrome.

One smile from a girl like that and the brain melts. I think the only vaccine is to be in a healthy relationship already so you don't have interest.

the function is a switch-case that returns false by default. As complaint tickets are opened, more cases get added to the switch-case”

Oh if that is acceptable, then my secondary idea of using an API call for this should work too. I thought that it would have to be guaranteed to be correct (as long as you don't reach a stack overflow or something)

That's , uh...

Yeah. Cooler than anything I could've achieved for purposefully bad is_even

My first idea of a purposefully bad is_even is this:

def is_even(i):
    return True if i == 0 else not is_even(abs(i)-1)

But I'm sure I could come up with worse given enough time.
