this looks like writing in the large seal script

I do agree that red scare rhetoric is increasing but buy in large it’s directed at China and Xi. Anti-communist tropes do show up in popular discourse on Russia but in my experience it’s less so in discussions on influence campaigns but in talk of Russia’s territorial ambitions (understandable considering the place of Soviet symbolism in Russian nationalism and war propaganda).

Russians are not ethnically communist

I’m not sure if there’s anything enable_if can do that concepts can’t do somewhat better but yeah there’s definitely a lot of subtleties that reflection is going to make nicer or possible in the first place

You already can do that with C++20 concepts and the requires expression

template <typename T>
concept has_member_foo = requires(T t) {
    t.foo();
};

// Will fail to instantiate (with nice error 
// message) if t.foo() is ill-formed
template <has_member_foo T>
void bar(T t) {
    // ...
}

// abbreviated form of above
void baz(has_member_foo auto t) {
    // ...
}

// verbose form of above
template <typename T> requires
    has_member_foo<T>
void biz(T t) {
    // ...
}

// same as above but with anonymous concept
template <typename T> requires
    requires(T t) { t.foo(); }
void bom(T t) {
    // ...
}

// If already inside a function
if constexpr (has_member_foo<T>) {
    // ...
}

// Same but with anonymous concept
if constexpr (requires(T t) { t.foo(); }) {
    // ...
}

C++26 reflection is compiletime

Raw meat carries infectious disease

increasing Canada’s defence spending to two per cent of its gross domestic product, reforming immigration through “better gatekeepers,” making life more affordable by “dismantling protectionism” and increasing competition in the airline, telecommunications and agricultural sectors

the party will have a strict vetting system to fend off potential foreign interference

strict vetting against foreign interference is rich coming from a party that agrees with the US state department at every opportunity

That’s the definition of a planemo or planetary mass object

Will it? Facebook/instagram did a similar thing in response to the Online News Act by banning any Canadian news links and in my experience people blamed facebook not the government

How do you give weapons to an army sans one battalion? It’s not like the US and Canada are the ones divvying out materiel on the ground

Yes! More surveillance! More secret radio chatter! Rip up the Outer Space Treaty! Let the superpowers play chicken with orbital nuclear bombardment! A lazy dog over every child’s head!

So much wrong with this article…

First Nations of the Pays d’en Haute weren’t “Jesuit controlled”. They had had asserted their independence in Pontiac’s War, which they initiated on their own judgement, and during which they received no Canadien support despite First Nation appeals. Serious historians haven’t considered this Indigenous warfare a French conspiracy for many many decades.

“The caging of the colonies onto the Pacific [Atlantic] Coast” by the establishment of the Indian Reserve was done in the Royal Proclamation of 1763 and it’s ratification as the Treaty of Fort Niagara to end Pontiac’s War, not with the Quebec Act a decade later. The continued restriction on settlement after the Quebec Act was introduced was an attempt to maintain this peace, not to subvert the Continental Congress which didn’t even exist yet.

Though I guess this is to be expected. If the author admitted not only that Indigenous peoples of the Ohio Country opposed settlement but they were independent nations who did so on their own volition, then the author wouldn’t be able to pretend that manifest destiny was some anti-racist position that only brought colonial genocide due to subversion from crypto-monarchists.

The author also blames Franklin’s failure to rally Montrealers soley on a lack of time due to military setbacks. They totally ignore how the Continental Army inserting itself as a fur trade middleman, refused to work in bullion, and failed to commitment to long-term Canadien religious freedom made most people in the city hate then.

Oh and the traitors in league with the City of London and the Reign on Terror being the fault of British foreign policy are just bizarre and conspiratorial.

tl;dr the author needs to read something other than conspiracy theories and George Bush’s childhood American history textbook

I guess they kinda just accepted the sensitivity and higher chance of a broken tooth. It’s like how we know how wearing high heels all the time fucks up your joints but the social convention is still there and people still follow it.

And it might just be the discolouration but the filed areas are darker and more yellow than the non-filed areas, so I think we’re just looking at the (probably tertiary) dentin.
