It's out of Snow Crash, of course!

See, this is something you have in common with the people who get paid to commentate on this stuff as though they knew anything about anything.

If it weren't for the fact that you've just been honest about your less than perfect prediction record, I'd suggest a career move! :)

I think you actually have the kernel of a good heuristic there, but I'd, uh, refine it a bit.

I used to work with a guy named Gerardo Ochoa. His username was gochoa, but when addressing him in person we'd sometimes call him "jochoa." (Not his real name or username, but what I'm describing is true in its essence.)

But in some countries many small to medium businesses use WhatsApp extensively for communication with their customers. For many people it's as bad, arguably worse, than their main ISP going down.

Let us say that that is not how I would have phrased that sentence.

They're very visible in diffs then. And even if accidentally committed they're still easy to spot and eliminate later.

I won't go so far as to say that I'm opposed to them outright, but when there's a choice between a street with a protected lane and a quiet street without one that runs parallel, I'll almost always choose the street without.

My suggestion: use a programming language (any one you like) to explain why people who live in places where English isn't widely spoken would be better off learning English and/or a programming language.

Whatever they ought to be called instead, it looks to me like the space is not lacking in them--curves and inconvenient angles in particular.

(Although, of course, left and liberal are by no means synonyms.)

It could be a while.

But something for Python that actually works? Yes, please!

But for whom? If you're outside the US, and I'll remind you that most of the world, including China, is, then goods effectively priced in US dollars will be more expensive.
