   College kid sounding freaked out at the prospect of a civil war. I don't know what media false prophet he's listening to, but I see little chance of a civil war breaking out. If the demonstrations get too irritating, they'll tell the mainstream media and socnets to ignore the protests and intercept attempts to publicize them ... and without attention, the protests will evaporate.

   Bumped the same foot that I bumped in #Puerto_Rico. No swelling this time, but similar feel, except less intense. Soreness in two toes and the ball of my foot.

   @mangeurdenuage @heavensfeel I think Fahrenheit is actually better for common use. People easily understand that temperatures near 0F are cold enough to hurt or kill you if you don't take precautions, and temperatures near 100F are hot enough to hurt or kill you if you don't take precautions; they correspond to about -18C to +38C, which are awfully strange numbers to try and r…

     102F in the Arden-Arcade area of #Sacramento #CA. #Sac is another one of those places that gets a lot hotter than one would expect. But the plus is that there is often a cool sea breeze coming from the Bay Area in the evenings.

     @lnxw48a1 Well, don't think of -18°C or +38°C as those limit temperatures then. As you said, those are approximate numbers, so it's just circular logic to say that round Fahrenheit degrees are more round than the corresponding degrees Celsius. Just round degrees Celsius then, to -20°C and +40°C. Which do have symmetry as well. But it's not like running naked in wind with -…

   @tregeagle Just got the text. Can't respond just now. Kicking off again with F-bomb Freddy and the #Aloha gang, who appear to have been drinking all afternoon and are now shrieking abuse at each other. Drawing the blinds and laying low. Too stressed to be convivial till it dies down.

   Watching some Nim Conf videos. https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxLdEZg8DRwTIEzUpfaIcBqhsj09mLWHx ... but I’m not going to watch the whole playlist, at least not all tonight.
   
   Finding the #Nim language interesting because it reminds me of !Python.
   
   It has some similarities to #Python, at least on the surface level that the 2nd video explores, along with compiling to #C (so interfacing with C via FFI is said to be “easy”).

    California legislators trying to amend the state constitution to remove anti-discrimination language. https://openstates.org/ca/bills/20192020/ACA5 ... I think their intent was to allow race-based college admissions, but their language would also remove anti-discrimination rules.

      Three major plague events in history. There is speculation that the second event, the Black Death, was actually caused by anthrax, or some non-bubonic form of the plague.
