That's locality of reference, though, similar to how you can say "here" or "there" for spatial coordinates. Everybody is aware of the year and month, so you omit it as given. The order of significance is still year, month, day.
Imagine if a harried time traveler jumped out of their time machine and asked you the date. Would it make sense to say, "Why, it's the 1st." (Or more possible, if a friend awoke from a coma.) If you ask somebody when they were born, most people will give the year at minimum. Of course, there are some weirdos out there, and you recognize them when you ask when they were born, and they say, "on a Tuesday." Same for the date of the Norman invasion of Great Britain. If you don't already have some sense of history, then knowing it happened about the 20th isn't very edifying.
Thanks. That is what I'd expect, and highlights the disconnect I saw in this comment chain: I think what some other folks were trying (less-than-artfully) to say is that there's a difference between what one might expect case-insensitive means as a computer programmer, and what one might expect case-insensitive to mean in human language. All three of those should be the same filename in fr_FR locale, since some French speakers consider diacritical marks to be optional in upper case. While that might be an edge case, it does exist. English is even worse, with a number of diacritical marks that are completely optional, but may be used to aid legibility, e.g. café, naïve, coöperation. (Whether that quirk is obvious or not, or whether it outweighs any utility of case-insensitivity is not something that I have a strong opinion on, though.)
LAW ➡️ The exercise of state power, or its agents. e.g. "The law is at the door."
ORDER ➡️ Social hierarchy. e.g. This pardon restored order by putting this woman a back in the social hierarchy where a white conservative belongs, rather than at the bottom, under the bootheel of the law, with the brown people.
A friend years ago clued me in to the Rosetta Stone for understanding conservatives: At base, they have a deep, abiding self-hatred. Yes, people often say it's fear, but everybody's motivated by fear of something. The conservative is motivated specifically by fear that they're worthless, that they don't measure up.
It makes so much sense when you game it out: They're constantly needing external validation that they are good, or at least, better than somebody else. The basis of racism becomes clear as day in this light, and the desperate need to be special is just kind of axiomatic.
Sorry, I'm not in a position to know. It would be very interesting if an investigative journalist looked into the state of employment from the perspective of workers these days to put together a bigger picture than one store.
The President has historically had wide latitude to act in times of emergency. The instigator of the insurrection should've been in Gitmo on January 21, 2021.
Sure, call me extremist, but look at where we are now. I'm fucking right. But, barring the correct action, Biden could've followed the moderate, decorous course of launching the prosecution that day. But no, it took TWO. GOD. DAMN. YEARS.
The grocery store in which I used to work has been desperate to hire cashiers for years, really since the start of the pandemic. There were some days that we had only two lanes open because that's all the staff that we had. During busy times, the store manager, the store owners, and sometimes the managers-on-duty would go up to the front to do check-out. The store installed more self-checkout lanes out of necessity.
Nowadays, I go shop there only in the evenings, and there are enough cashiers because they're all high school students. But the help-wanted sign at the front of the store is still offering open cashier jobs. They're certainly not eliminating jobs that people desperately need.
Computer-vision has been a thing for years, though it's now bundled under the moniker "AI". I know that the self-checkout cameras at the store where I go use AI to "watch" customers. I would assume most of them do, now. Heck, the cheap camera that I bought to point out my front window for fun pretty reliably detects animals, vehicles, and people.
The store nearest my house, where I shop a lot, is a bit more upscale. They've installed fancy self-checkout kiosks that tell you to continue scanning items while waiting for the attendant to come deal with an issue. The giant, discount grocery store with locations on the edge of town have enough room that they've installed self-checkout lanes that have about a 2-meter conveyor belt to a large bagging area. It's enormous.
