おはようございます。
I just learned that I can use `...` as placeholder for unfinished code instead of `pass` in #python
`...` is a built-n object, and it's called the *Ellipsis*
Example: Instead of
def func():
pass
one could use the ellipsis like
def func():
...
this is very tempting (alas, can't afford it atm)

Hey everyone, I imagine you’re kind of tapped out with Minneapolis mutual aid fundraisers…but if you have a few bucks, this fund for rent & grocery support in my school / neighborhood is looking kind of strapped and will shortly be unable to meet ongoing needs:

Interesting framing.
"Imagine being in a situation where you have limited internet access: your internet is slow, or you're relying on a small data bundle, or you are stuck in the middle of nowhere with spotty coverage."

이 블랙회사 한중일 직원의 공통퇸 의견은 자녀를 자기가 원래 살던 지역에서 공부시키고 싶어하지 않는다는것 ㅋㅋㅋ 일본분도 마찬가지고 중국 싱가포르분들도 마찬가지임 어찌됬던간에 이동네는 애가 공부를 잘 못하고 방황해도 어떻게든 대충 주립대까지 보내고 밀어넣으면 졸업후 어떻게든 대충 알아서 먹고 살긴하니까... 근데 한중일은 그런 수준으로는 안되니 그런거 같긴하더라 물론 저는 자녀교육을 직접 해볼 기회가 없었으므로 카더라입니다...

Dear friends,
I am Diaa from Gaza. I urgently need $400 for surgery to save my leg from amputation. I also have colon cancer, and my health is very serious. I urgently need $50 to get one step closer to this life-saving treatment.
My wife and I are living in extremely difficult circumstances and struggle daily to survive.
Any support, no matter how small, could make a huge difference in saving my life.
