Yes. The term came from the Polynesian languages into English via Missionaries. The island people would war with their enemies and the winner got to eat the loser, calling them long pigs.

I think a sandwich is inherently enclosed by bread.
As a counter proposal, can I suggest we call this a "Bread plate meal"?
Nice map, very clear.
For anyone wondering, one of the biggest reasons for changing fertility is the education of women. There's a provable trend that better educated women have fewer babies.
Globally observed data is that: Women with little or no formal education tend to have more children. Women with secondary education have fewer. Women with university level education have the fewest children on average. So if you compared this map with one of women's education, I suspect there'd be a fairly close match.
That education also comes at a general trend of improved living standards for the whole population, so improving countries have an overall lessening fertility and the improved education is a product of that.
(I'm not an expert by any means - I'm just someone who fell down a rabbithole some time ago and spent an evening trying to understand this correlation. )
Yep, and very actively developed too.
Whilst I disagree with some of their technical decisions, it's really good at what it does.
This report is sad to read, and concerning that Mattermost are not communicating back to the community.
That's half the internet gone, then.
""Keep in mind, the alleged comments are made by an IT person, who has nothing to do with how we make our food."
That's from the spokesperson for the company, ignoring that the comments were from the C-Level originally, and simultaneously seeking to discredit the source. (And casually insulting all IT people)
Given the allegation is about a toxic culture, that's not a good statement for the company to make.
Casually mention how much you like money. How you enjoy looking at it, touching it and receiving it.
So, just like any vehicle that downloads software updates from its manufacturer?
If they do that, the manufacturer can add whatever they like to specific vehicles, including kill switches.

If they choose to still vote for more of this madness and the obvious damage to themself economically and socially, they're clearly in denial and there's little you or I can do to change their mind.
