1999-2003, similar dynamics. There's a glob of students that are drawn to fields that seem hot, whether they enjoy the work or not.
In 1999, those folks were still nerd -adjacent. By 2011, you had techbro culture; those guys would've studied business a decade before.

You've got the axis of a Christmas tree aligned with the abscissa, ordinate, and applicate, respectively. This so-called "joke" makes no sense.

I read this when it was free, but it's the flour. Wheat flour from the south comes from a softer strain. In theory, you can ship it, but mostly not worth it for such a low value good. I'll bet McDs has the supply chain to bother with it.

Not quite true. What is true is that the expressions are so complicated that they're unhelpful for design.

Do the hard one, state what you just said, possibly add when you would not bother with the fancy versions.

Nickname is "Raisin", hence "Raisin Caine". A cool nickname, definitely half the reason Trump picked him.
But did he give it to himself (contemptible) or Costanza it by publicly eating a box of Sun-Kist at every opportunity (cringe, but forward-looking)?

They also used to be able to switch signs w/a man on 2nd. That's harder with the pitch clock.
Speaking of which, it seems like PitchCom fails more frequently in stressful situations, almost like it knows the pitcher needs another 30 seconds to calm down...
