Remote work is a step in the right direction at least. In my case, I’m generally just too exhausted to bother going anywhere other than home and work, which definitely limits any socializing. Work culture isn’t entirely to blame of course, but it sure isn’t helping.

I’ve been using the stress of needing to do things to keep me going. Without it I can’t even imagine what I’d do.

Lol, no. We’ll all just suffer quietly thanks.

Don’t try to normalize this abomination. The preparation is as bad as the ingredients.

Beans hat? Jeans shat.

I think you’re reading too much into intent here. The only reasoning that goes into these decisions is target audience. Who will buy what you are producing? When most of the comics that you mentioned were written, the perception was very much that their readers would be boys.

If there’s anything to be mad about, it’s that focus testing and demographic targeting makes for shit entertainment. It means companies are trying to make something that sells instead of trying to tell a story.

It’s not just the psycho assholes looking for people to hammer. It’s hard to want to engage with voice chat when the general public has no fucking concept of mic discipline. Nobody wants to hear the conversations happening around you. They don’t want to hear you eating. They certainly don’t want to hear your background music. Use push to talk.

A wealthy man from Soth Africa has weird views on eugenics? I’m shocked!

Are you sure that wasn’t just an attempted joke about the phrase asexual reproduction?

I’m pretty sure cow is the species common name and bull/heffer are the sex variant terms.

You know, like how a rooster and a hen are both still chickens?

My argument is specifically that using no separation shows intent for which way to interpret and should not default to weak juxtaposition.

Choosing not to use (6/2)(1+2) implies to me to use the only other interpretation.

There’s also the difference between 6/2(1+2) and 6/2*(1+2). I think the post has a point for the latter, but not the former.

Honestly, I do disagree that the question is ambiguous. The lack of parenthetical separation is itself a choice that informs order of operations. If the answer was meant to be 9, then the 6/2 would be isolated in parenthesis.
