“Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: […] like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.” —Jonathan Swift
What the fuck are you even talking about? Not only is “-ize” not exclusively American English, not only do you have no evidence this person is American, not only is “-ize” not even an Americanism, and not only was “-ize” in use over a century before Britain established the colony of Virginia, but “-ize” predates “-ise”.
Maybe stop trying to prescribe what the “proper” suffix is when you don’t know shit about it.
That’s actually meant as an imperative statement.
In a series of social media posts on Monday, the US president compared warnings about AI to the “Global Warming Scam”, that he said was “being perpetrated by the Radical Left Dumocrats”.
I don’t drink, but I’m buying a bottle of vodka to celebrate when the aneurysm comes.
That’s 03:14 if it’s HH/MM, you absolute heathen.
Stop attributing comprehension and agency
That’s not what this is doing. At all. It’s saying it produced a solution.
Edit: Y’all, mathematicians literally use deterministic algorithms called SAT solvers that solve the Boolean satisfiability problem. Saying an algorithm “solved” a math problem is not ascribing it comprehension or agency.
Oh, great, a bot. Well this one decided to link to a live feed where even now, you have to scroll down to find the article.
Dude, you’re gonna kill me. I was late because I was doing stuff.
For context.
Sure, but that’s wrong and used for convenience because the terminology got muddled early on. That was the original definition (i.e., no eating animal products), but the Vegan Society who created the term changed it not long after (in the 1940s?) to include avoiding exploitation generally “as far as is possible and practicable”. That’s because veganism is an ethical movement that sees this exploitation as fundamentally wrong. There’s still a note about this original definition at the end, of course, because a dietary term is largely how it exists in the minds of non-vegans.
What you’re referring to is a plant-based diet(er) (or “strict plant-based diet” if you want to be really clear and beat marketing buzz). Calling a vegan “someone who eats meat no more often than a month” in the sense of how vegans use the term would be like defining someone who’s anti-dog-abuse as someone who kicks their dog at most once a month.
(Edit: Notably, “vegan diet” is used among vegans, but because it’s a diet that comes as a consequence of being vegan, not because following it makes you vegan.)
TL;DR: That’s a definition used mainly among non-vegans.

Nasty. I thought this was satire at first and had to read it back.
“What kind of ‘hacked’?”
“Yes”
“I never asked for this.”

Damn, didn’t realize California was that baja.
According to Wiktionary, the etymology of “shark” beyond Middle English is unknown – and even there, we only see it once in 1442.
Edit: the Online Etymology Dictionary has more.
JK, thanks for the legalese
Expanding a bit:
All the legalese is saying is that if the AG sues to have a company dissolved and the court finds either that the company or a high-up at the company (in the course of their work at the company) keeps committing felonies, the court can, if deemed necessary to stop similar conduct in the future, require the company to wind up its affairs (i.e. get its shit in order) and then be terminated.
Texas Business Organizations Code, Title 1, Chapter 11, Subchapter G, Section 301 (“Involuntary winding up and termination of filing entity by court action”):
(a) A court may enter a decree requiring winding up of a filing entity’s business and termination of the filing entity’s existence if, as the result of an action brought under Section 11.303 (“The attorney general shall file an action against a filing entity in the name of the state seeking termination of the entity’s existence if […]”), the court finds that one or more of the following problems exist:
[…]
(5) public interest requires winding up and termination of the filing entity because:
(A) the filing entity has been convicted of a felony or a high managerial agent of the filing entity has been convicted of a felony committed in the conduct of the filing entity’s affairs;
(B) the filing entity or high managerial agent has engaged in a persistent course of felonious conduct; and
© termination is necessary to prevent future felonious conduct of the same character.
