A quotation from Austin O'Malley
The weaker the man in authority, layman or cleric, the stronger his insistence that all his privileges be acknowledged.
Austin O'Malley (1858-1932) American ophthalmologist, professor of literature, aphorist
Keystones of Thought (1914)

Today the American Lawyer's A-List has included the firm where I work among their top 20 firms, again. Apparently this is our 10th consecutive year appearing on the list, our 2nd year in spot number 3, and our 7th inclusion in the top 5 since 2017.
We are fighting the administration's appeal of their Executive Order, so wish us luck. [article=paywall]

The not operator has higher precedence than and, so that will evaluate to True when Encryption.AES is false-ish and 'FLAG' is in the stream, and False otherwise.
It's easier to see if you simplify:
>>> not True and True
False
>>> not False and True
True
Repellent. With #Roe ruling, #GOP Court rendered #precedence—and therefore #SCOTUS and overall US legal system—meaningless. Ensuring at least for a generation or two, citizens on “both sides” will view all rulings as tied to nothing but the passing whims of the court’s current political appointees ⚖️

Not to mention, obliterating the meaning of #precedence, making #scotus/federal laws essentially meaningless.

If? In 1969 a liberal justice resigned for accepting lavish gifts from a rich acquaintance. #Precedence
so I was looking at NextCloud and they have a installation script
and the first actual lines:
# Prefer IPv4
sed -i "s|#precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100|precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100|g" /etc/gai.conf
how to get me annoyed with your software in 30s right there
