Why did you write this?
Nothing above indicates this is a new revelation.
And even if so, we should welcome new comrades to the struggle. That's how we build solidarity.

From the link you provide:
In 2012, Australian psychologist Gina Perry investigated Milgram's data and writings and concluded that Milgram had manipulated the results, and that there was a "troubling mismatch between (published) descriptions of the experiment and evidence of what actually transpired." She wrote that "only half of the people who undertook the experiment fully believed it was real and of those, 66% disobeyed the experimenter".[26][27] She described her findings as "an unexpected outcome" that "leaves social psychology in a difficult situation."[28]
I mean, maybe it shouldn't have been done?
Many laws are written to give the executive branch leeway in defining the details of how a law is to be implemented. This makes sense, assuming everyone is acting in good faith; technologies, science, standards, and best practices all evolve over time.
Laws are usually written in a way to ensure Congressional oversight, to prevent the executive either intentionally or accidentally from subverting their will. But with a treasonous President and a complicit Congress, here we are.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Reading this made me wonder if I was having a stroke, because it seems like English but I don't recognize so many of the words. 👴
Why did you mention them not being US citizens then? 🤔
Could be Canadian, eh?
My own reading of that amendment is that it puts requirements on the US government, period. It does not limit things to US citizens.
Of course, I know that's not the way the courts interpret the amendment. 😔
My point is that if your variable can be None then you need the same pattern for the length check.
So for the Pythonic version:
if (foo is not None) and not foo:
...
For the explicit length check:
if (foo is not None) and (len(foo) == 0):
...
Honestly you're probably better off using type hints and catching such things with static checks and not adding the None check.
You'd need to explicitly check for None if using the len() construct as well, so this doesn't change the point of the article.
My ad blocker has blocked all pictures on this article, so I can't say. 😄
We've had a similar ban in the Netherlands for a year or two now. Mobile phones were already not allowed in classes. Kids seem to have survived.
The 1980s were before the DMCA. In those days if you bought an expensive piece of electronics both seller and buyer expected that you owned it.
