@dabit3 The community note is wrong though. I don't think it's unreasonable to define a bug as an unintended side effect. If the effect is intentional but undesired by end users, it's not a bug.
Not sure the distinction is meaningful to anyone, but it's not unreasonable
That stupid bitch is destroying every technical hobby. Need to order components? Every line item in the invoice gets a 3€ fee. 10 cents worth of resistors now cost you 3.10€.... This adds up quick...
"I don't believe in paying athletes. And I come from a small country. I come from a sport that doesn't necessarily pay athletes very well.
And I still don't believe we should be paying athletes at the Olympic Games."
- IOC President, Kirsty Coventry
Watch Masai Russell 🇺🇸 run an American Record of 12.14s (0.5) over 100mH at the Xiamen Diamond League!
Just misses the World Record by 0.02s.
2. Tobi Amusan 🇳🇬 12.28
3. Devynne Charlton 🇧🇸 12.37 (NR)
Dear @Hertz, when i got read-ended while at a stop in your car, called your roadside number and got a "please call during business hours" message, i laughed. When I went to your location to return the car and provide insurance info of the person who hit me, and was told "do not worry we'll take care of it", i was relieved. But when weeks later you contacted me demanding i pay cash for the repair and told me hat in fact you "never take care of it" and you have no idea who told me, andit was on me to "handle it", I was furious. Luckily (with permission) I recorded your employee telling me at great length that you will in fact take care of it and after submitting this report at the location, there was no further action required of me. So, what now? Is this the sort of business you run? Lying to customers and attempting to gaslight them? Seriously?
This is so common it has a name: The Peter principle. The flip side is you're expected to demonstrate competence at a higher level without the promise of title or compensation
Richard Byles says many middle managers struggle after promotion because companies elevate strong technical performers into leadership roles without preparing them to manage people.

It does seem like there is a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher-type curse on recent men's 400m gold medalists.
2021 Steven Gardiner: Didn't run at '22 WC
2022 Michael Norman: Didn't run at '23 WC
2023 Antonio Watson: Didn't run at '24 OG
2024 Quincy Hall: Didn't run at '25 WC
@Repostkingggg@TrackGazette Blake almost did it with one of the worst starts ever, so that's not a requirement. His top end is reminiscent of Bolt and Lyles so if he stays healthy I see him getting dangerously close
I think it's ironic that Rajindra, Roje, and Jaydon (and many others) all live and train in the USA. Jamaicans will gladly accept their medals though.
Since WA wants to protect the "integrity" of the competition, perhaps Jamaica should cede their medals to the United States
World Athletics has rejected all 11 applications submitted by the Türkiye Athletics Federation for athletes seeking to switch allegiance to 🇹🇷 Türkiye ahead of the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
The athletes affected include:
🇰🇪 Brigid Kosgei
🇰🇪 Ronald Kwemoi
🇰🇪 Catherine Amanang'ole
🇰🇪 Brian Kibor
🇰🇪 Nelvin Jepkemboi
🇯🇲 Rojé Stona
🇯🇲 Rajindra Campbell
🇯🇲 Jaydon Hibbert
🇯🇲 Wayne Pinnock
🇳🇬 Favour Ofili
🇷🇺 Sophia Yakushina
World Athletics has said the allegiance switches would compromise key Council imperatives, including protecting the credibility of national representative competitions.
As a result, none of the athletes are eligible to represent Türkiye in National Representative Competitions such as the World Championships or Olympic Games.
