They’re replacing underpaid immigrant workers with underpaid overseas workers remotely controlling a crummy robot, while some rich techbro asshole in the middle skims off almost all the money. I do hope they fail with this stupid idea, but your techbro will already have made off with the money for their next startup scam.

But please, not the Democrats you currently have. You need some leaders who represent the people.

These laws, near-identical versions of which are being rammed through in many countries simultaneously, could make it legally and financially infeasible for anyone but wealthy corporations to run online services. You have to suspect this is by design.

The effect will be that all communication has to go through censored, commercial channels with integrated deep surveillance. Political dissidents will be unable to organize without being flagged, and left-wing messages will be easy to suppress. Combine it with the recent tendency to cut left organizations off from banking and payment systems, and it starts to look pretty attractive to governments who know their populations are going to be angry about what is coming.

The climate crisis is really starting to bite and our political and economic systems are only equipped to serve the wealthy few. If the next crash is the big one and people start to starve, governments and the few they serve are going to need all the tools of suppression they can get.

tl;dr: Ask for extra pages, because so far they’re only putting his absurd picture in the thinner passports.

There go the humanities then. The USA will become more ignorant and less wise, which is what the inhumane dumbasses running the country want. A cultural wasteland run by techbros and financial fraudsters.

We have to reduce the influence of billionaires, or anyone with less is ignored.

I know my colleagues and former colleagues, and have reason to be confident it didn’t.

I think it’s fine for people to give the most cursory explanation here, just enough to help someone understand what’s funny. There are plenty of other sites where one can learn about Rust’s borrow checker in more detail, and this is a humor community.

I wouldn’t expect anyone to know about it unless they had taken an interest in Rust. It’s pretty unusual.

legacy code at least used to make sense at some point in the past.

That assumption doesn’t hold where I work.

With the number of countries trying to crack down on privacy-focused phone OSs, I’m a little worried Motorola may get cold feet after talking to its lawyers. Has Motorola made any public statement promising these phones are coming?

Oh, ooh, I think I know why! It’s because Trump is a pedo rapist (and possibly murderer) and he is protecting his rich, powerful friends who are also pedo rapists (and possibly murderers)! Call me crazy but I really think I’ve figured it out!

Yes, I have always enjoyed trying to create elegant architecture and code, more than I get satisfaction from the end result. I’ve always found it frustrating how many colleagues were prepared to throw together any old junk as long as the right thing came out in the end. On the positive side, maybe the AI does raise the quality of what some of them contribute.

Maybe they edited README.md by hand.

This is the new normal, it seems. My developer colleagues are bragging about how long it has been since they wrote a line of code.

On the day Kirk was shot and killed while onstage at an event at Utah Valley University, Mickens posted a quote from Kirk on her private social media account after work hours from her personal computer, according to the lawsuit.

“‘I think it’s worth it. I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. — Charlie Kirk,’” the post read. It did not include any commentary from Mickens.

That doesn’t sound good.

So does the US Government. If you’re in any way active in left-wing politics, or what the fascists would perceive to be left-wing politics, it’s unwise to use Windows.

It’s great that umbrellas can now contain more toxic chemicals, rare minerals and disposable batteries, but can we also please make it depend on an app and a paid subscription, contain an AI assistant that tells you whether it’s raining, and report in real time on all your movements and conversations?
