Shouldn't it be "further"? farther is for physical distance, further is for figurative/metaphorical distance.

I might actually stick just those parts end to end and put it in a bottle and throw it into the high seas. 🦜☠️

I was banned from /r/latestagecapitalism for not loving China. Anytime I tried to explain why I do not unconditionally love everything about China, they said "but USA?" Dude, I don't care about USA. It's thousands of kilometers away from where I live. Everything I said was interpreted as defending USA. I say "China does this" they hear "USA doesn't do that". There are other countries in the world, you know, not everything is about USA. End of rant :)

He means programming language. Don't use programming languages that are controlled by a single company. Not "don't say CUDA when you mean any general purpose GPU programming language".

Not in Turkish. It is "olmak" but the actual "to be" as it is used in "I am, they were, etc." is, now unused "imek". it has become a suffix and it is completely regular. Just i + person suffix.
