And to clarify, the deal wasn't even a peace deal. It was a "ceasefire now, then when Russia recuperates and starts again, we'll have 0 contingencies. See, what if a bomb dropped on your head right now? We can't predict the future!"

If the pictures are not, forced therapy is probably the best option.

This is true, but it really depends how "therapy" is defined. And forced therapy could mean anything from things like the old conversion therapy approach for gay people.

You might argue that these days we wouldn't do anything so barbaric, but considering that the nature of a pedophile's is very unsavory, and the fact that it will never be acceptable, unlike homosexuality, people would be far more willing to abuse or exploit said "therapy"

Well, clearly it wouldn't work. You should instead act like you hate gummy worms and give them to her to get rid of them.

Why do news stations make these stupid short clips with music and pictures? Just show the clip

This is a smarter breakdown. I had a similar thought that this is a test to see how many people will conform to a random demand, basically fielding for which departments are fighting against his authority to know the areas to focus on.

Isn't this all from one event?

It's not like the Trump voters are silently voting. They're load and clear?

COBOL doesn't have a date type. And there were "people" in that "list" that weren't just 150 years old, and they varied in ages.

The real answer is that the list that they're saying is people getting social security, isn't the list of people getting paid, just lists of random ages in the database, which ultimately means nothing.

I think it makes sense that people who don’t have actual experience in making projects in a specific language won’t be aware of details such as the value 0 being the default in a certain kind of field in a certain language which makes it a good flag for “data unknown”.

The whole "COBOL's default date is 1875" thing is just a lie. COBOL doesn't even have a date type.

So the problem doesn't have anything to do with COBOL, someone just made it up

So spend a chunk of money to hire a team to upgrade the database that's working to one that's programmed in a new language, ~~might~~ will have errors, then have to fix those errors, and you'd also have to train the existing team or replace them with someone who knows how to use and maintain the new database. You'd potentially want to upgrade or change the hardware too from an old mainframe computer unless you want to only sidegrade to like C-90 since your old IBM computer won't support newer compilers. In the meanwhile there's a HUGE risk of breaking something or even just not getting anything accomplished

It's definitely an objective that's good but if you're chasing efficiency and cutbacks, it's the opposite of what you'd want to do.
