Transcript of Biden's gun debate with an Trump supporter about gun control
From https://twitter.com/AynRandPaulRyan/status/1237420335802093570?fbclid=IwAR0Xaf0outETgQo9ub82o7YhvafbMDMzf028LEOXEawkzFq3U4vbOwkpdV4
Biden: You're full of shit. Now there is ... shush! I support the second amendment. The second amendment is like right now if you yell "Fire!" that's not free speech. From the very beginning I had a shotgun, I have a 20 gauge, a 12 gauge, my sons hunt, guess what ... you're not allowed to own any weapons. I'm not taking your gun away. At all. You need a hundred rounds you ...
Guy: You really did though, when you said you'd take our guns away
Biden: I did not say that. That's not t... I did not say that
Guy: It was a viral video!

Transcript of Pete trying to talk over Bernie
From https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1232557081082957825
Bernie:
Let us be clear. Do we think heathcare for all, Pete, is some kind of radical, communist idea? Do we think raising the minimum wage to a living wage [is]? Do we think building the millions of units of affordable housing that we need [is]? Do we think raising taxes on billionaires is a radical idea? Do we think criminal justice reform is a radical idea? Do we think immigration reform ... the truth is, Pete, that the American people support my agenda. That is why I am beating Trump in virtually every poll that is done. And that is why I will defeat him
Pete:
I'm glad you brought this up. Let's talk about this. I'm happy to respond to the question because this is really important. This is really important. If you're gonna ask that rhetorical question, let's go behind the [inaudible] for example. Let's talk about this. Let's talk about what's radical about that plan. Senator, please. Senator. The things you just named are things we favour

Reversing a string or array in J
NB. first attempt, took me a whole hour

forwardindices =: i. @: #
revindices =: (subindices - forwardindices)
revarray =: (({~) revindices)
NB. alternative implementation, I realised you could give a -ve number to "i."
revindices2 =: (i. @: - @: #)
