Government software in a nutshell, honestly.
You put me in an infinite loop where i get vaccinated over and over again
I guess theoretically if this is bad code that you could get a covid_19 check in either function which switches the var to false

Today I learned I can't say ma'am anymore, I guess. I'm in the store a woman impatiently cuts in front of me to self checkout and I'm like: "Ma'am, I'm next in line."

"Who are you to be calling me ma'am?!"

Me: "Uh."
One of the store clerks found it hilarious and after she stormed out the clerk tells me she thought I was calling her old. So I guess I'm stuck with Miss and Misses except I have to guess if you're married or not which I dont have to do with ma'am.
It's probably best to to avoid ma'am for like gendering purposes but me and the store clerk was pretty sure she was inferring I was calling her old.

Honestly, a 60/40 split in Women/Men college enrollment is pretty shocking. I didn't realize it was that stark. It has to be because boys are under performing in grade school academics. There aren't programs aimed at boys improving their academics so they just drop out.
Feminism talks a lot about boy's issues. It just never gets coverage because the language is not from an average man's POV. Broader liberal society, including men, don't really talk about men's issues at all because the implication is they have none.
This leaves a vacuum open for the right to weaponize these issues but of course all those incels and MRAs blame women for men's issues when feminism accurately prescribes the problem as toxic masculinity but the language and its speakers are easily derided.

Re-releasing this after others reviewed it:
I calculated a map of changes from Census 2010 to 2020 in California by population, race & housing. Colors are coded by percent increase. Select a subject then hover the mouse to see demographics.
Disclaimers⬇️
darrellowensrcd.github.io/infoTransit/ce…
- Colors were originally percentage increase/decrease, now they are total number increased/decrease for more visual accuracy
- All races besides Latinos are non-Hispanic
- Housing Units include Occupied and Vacant. Vacant count is included.
Black tracts are tracts that changed names and I could not find patterns with. Most changed tracts were identified by my algo and were calculated into the 2010 tract baseline map. So 101.01 and 101.02 in 2020 is put under 101 (2010).

I was a CS major so all my classes were filled with white and Asian men but I get the impression if you're a guy and you're not going for a science or engineering then you don't go to college, really. Women seemed much larger in all other majors, particularly law and poli-sci.
I think that since men are expected to be high earners, getting a higher paying job out of high school is quite the incentive to stay away from college. Whereas women are not expected to be higher earners and thus can forgo high paying work for studies.
Anecdotally, many girls I know are getting degrees to go into fields that traditionally did not require them such as teaching. So I wouldn't be surprised if despite the disproportionately female enrollment that men will still consume the higher paying jobs

YIMBYs say this a lot but I dont think that car-centric suburbs are the cause of loneliness. Even in cities with these amenities the same people reporting loneliness just go home and stay on the Internet to talk to their friends. Meeting up just takes more effort now.
And Tokyo is like Incel kingdom now where men can't even talk to women anymore and rather talk to waifus on a nintendo DS. I think there's more going on here than urban design.
American cities are so boring if you're not eating. All the recreational activities like bowling alleys, arcades, recreation centers, pool rooms. Kinda faded, gone or highly limited.

Ok, people, it was a joke. Stalin, Khrushchev and Brezhnev don't fit into "NIMBY, Super PHIMBY and Left YIMBY" lol. Ok, under Khrushchev the urban crowding problem gets addressed with big reforms like state builders doing pre-fab housing. Private housing was allowed till '62. Image
So arguably, in a way, Stalin was more yimby than late Khrushchev's tenure since he didn't ban private housing.
Continued. I had to drop the joke because @MarketUrbanism was defending Stalin so we had to clarify
