Kom Chad Luek became the target of mass protests after it printed an article on 24 March 2006 that omitted part of a quote by anti-government protest leader Sondhi Limthongkul, with the misquote suggesting Sondhi wanted King Bhumibol Adulyadej to abdicate, which was viewed as an insult to the king, or lèse majesté, which is a crime in Thailand. The paper published a front-page apology on 30 March, begging forgiveness from the king. Protests in front of the newspaper's offices continued however. The paper's editor, Korkhet Chantalertlak, resigned in a show of responsibility, the chief news editor was reassigned, and the paper said it would suspend publication for a total of five days, from 31 March to 2 April and on 8-9 April.[3][4]

gollark: The `ipairs` iterator gives us `key, value` for each item of the table (in order). The key is unnecessary here, so it's just bound to `_`, the convention I've seen a lot for variables you're discarding.
gollark: As you can see, you don't actually need to explicitly compute the length anywhere.
gollark: Here's how I would do it:```lualocal function divisible_by_any(n, factors) for _, factor in ipairs(factors) do if n % factor == 0 then return true end end return falseendlocal primes = { 2, 3 }for i = 2, 100 do if not divisible_by_any(i, primes) then table.insert(primes, i) endendfor _, prime in ipairs(primes) do print(prime) end```
gollark: I can't actually read that because ææææ my eyes but it looks like the same thing with less whitespace.
gollark: I mean, it *sort of* is, but instead of actually marking the things it just checks against each factor.
