It's not really legal in the UK. It's unenforceable on claims under 5k and for claims over 5k the courts will make a case by case decision if arbitration is appropriate.

However, lots of companies still add these bullshit clauses as a way to bully people out of seeing a lawyer.

A relationship graph which requires no gay relationships is called a bigraph (honest, I'm not making this up) or bipartite.

That follows because if you can two color the graph so that edges only connect different colors, you just assign male to one color and female to the other.

This means there's a tone of mathematical identities describing this. Wikipedia has a good introduction.

I remember playing Max Payne. There was some battle in a bar against a guy with a shotgun. If you timed it right between reloads you could run up to the guy, stand on the bar so your guns were exactly level with his face and empty two Uzi clips point blank into his face before he could reload.

Then you would run out of ammo and he would one shot kill you.

It's all just the new testament. Before you fuck with poor people and nail them to a cross, make sure they aren't just slumming it, and actually have a very powerful father.

That's not how it works.

Parties are at the national level, and form alliances/blocks at the international level in order to get things done. These blocks shift and there is no guarantee that one party will continue to vote with a particular block.

Pick a country. Generally, the political parties in that country will stand for local elections, national elections, and EU elections. At that point you can ask what their politics are. But EU wide parties aren't a thing.

Yeah, I used to date someone from one of the richest families in Guangzhou (at least pre revolution). When the revolution came they hid a shitload of wealth, in the form of antiques, gold, and foreign assets.

Don't get me wrong. They got shipped off to camps, and lost most of their money. But those that survived the cultural revolution were still richer than almost everyone else.

Social capital is important, but real capital helps a lot too.

Good luck suing a cop. The courts have consistently ruled that they can basically do what they like and you can't sue them for shit.

How fucked up would it be if your actual town square was owned by a private company?

You have just invented malls. Hugely damaging to society, but they come with convenient parking and air con.

I quite like the tag line X, the abandoned shopping mall of the internet.

I think it describes it well.

It wouldn't matter much.

Most of what a bank does isn't on your phone, but server side.

In fact most bank apps could be replaced with an internal web browser that is pointing at their website, and a password manager, with no loss in functionality or change in security.

And if you'd like to review the client side code the bank is using you can just open dev mode in your browser, right now.

He's already been defeated soundly at the voting booth. That's why there was an insurrection.

We really should be moving to consequences part of the constitution instead giving Trump yet another chance to steal power.

We get in trouble if we fail everyone because we made them do a novel synthesis, instead of just repeating what we told them.

Particularly for an intro course, remembering what you were told is good enough.
