The reflection being further is the point? The further away something is, the smaller it looks, so the less of your field of view it takes up, the more you can see of it.

If I put my hand on my eye, I can't see much of it. If I pull my hand back, I can see more of it. If I put a mirror on my eye, I can only see my eye. If I put it back, I can see my face because the reflection of my face is further (i.e. smaller).

I'm very confused what you're trying to say.

No. She has the Florida case about him retaining classified documents.

This is the federal case about him trying to overturn the election.

There's also the Georgia case about his conspiracy to overturn Georgia's election results.

Slurs about a community are often not to be said by anyone but a person in that community trying to reclaim the slur. Maybe it should be "no one is allowed to say slurs," but there seems to be healing involved in taking back those words.

Any kind of executive policy to ignore laws works kind of like this. DACA, the lack of federal prosecution for Marijuana, etc. The current administration doesn't allow it, but you can still face consequences later.

Different people writing on the board? Maybe TAs add words or something. The a in "banned" and the email are different too.

Yes, but the keys shouldn't be able to pass through the door.

Do VPNs make that feature kind of pointless? We can't access most things from home without going through a VPN. Every where I've worked (and gone to school) was like that.

Does your RSVP have options for remote vs in person? My options are "accept", "decline", and "tentative." If I want to tell someone I'm remote that day, it needs to be a separate message.

Caffeine is physically addictive. You get withdrawals if you're addicted and stop cold turkey. It does vary person to person. But most people get a splitting headache.

That's because they are. It's just a socially acceptable drug addiction.

That part is currently illegal even in the US. So, baking it into an app would be a bad idea. Most of the time companies do illegal things, they try to be less explicit.

GDPR has a weird quirk of applying to all EU citizens whether or not they're currently in the EU. Cars are physical things and it is harder to make different models. A check of "Is California billing address? Show button. No? Don't show button." would be trivial to implement and would probably result in enough money to make it worth it.
