No, it's not. Conservative corporate policies desire restoration of a regressive, apartheid theocracy... think Clarence Thomas and Scalia.

Violence, more often than not, carries water for hardliners to repress the people and squander legitimate political capital. It's only the last straw when power is monopolized and stubbornly refuses to acknowledge or address legitimate

Reminds me of the YT videos of people caught sleeping in the drivers' seats of their Teslas on their ways to work. It's a behavior that should be possible but isn't yet assured to be safe enough to be allowed. #Affluenza

It would cost around about as much spent on the pointless military genocides/cash grabs in Middle East to return CO2 to pre-Industrial levels (290 ppm ± 10). CCS at scale is proven. There's no political will and omnicide/suic

Resources aren't infinite. It's arrogant and wasteful to be lazy and resource greedy. Electron is an embedded web-browser meets cross-platform application platform.. it's bloated, slow and awful... it makes Java look snappy,

Exactly. Emperors' new clothes from naive convention abandonment of solved problems.

It would be cheaper in terms of lives and suffering to raise a GoFundMe or Kickstarter to have these affluenza poxes on society snuffed out, Dostoevsky-style but with much less regret.

Killer AI robots, self-replicating automata, denuclearization (as it makes conventional wars palatable), renuclearization, rising nationalism and climate-attenuated resources scarcities are moving humans to the brink of genocide, civil&#x2F

Portugal found a solution: treatment and decriminalization of all drugs. Prohibition never addresses a social ill, except it helps the prison-military-congressional-industrial complex $$$. Prohibition and "tough on crime" are Nixo

Wow. The last time I saw OS/2 in production was at Egghead Software's back-office on PS/2's in the very late 1990's.

Apply common sense: One threatens violence, the other threatens inconvenience. Duh. If a "fake bomb threat," were called, it would have no effect. Bomb threats have to be credible to have weight, which would also an act of terrori

Trade unions have absolutely nothing to do with this. Unions built the middle-class, irrational hate against unions and canonizing of nationalist, militarist corporate blind devotion against one's own interests further eroded the middl

An Australian autistic developer found a top university's custom authentication database exposed to the internet in less than 10 minutes. Please, no more DIY crypto or running unaudited services willy-nilly. :prayer-emoji-here:

No classical functions as they exist now without added strengthening will be able to secure secrets against QC for long. OTOH, classical computing is reaching the limits of Moore's law, so barring process and fab cost reductions, CC

Not a big deal. Anyone doing serious development at scale would mirror production anyways (12factors principle). Plus, who uses Apple's obsolete junk anyhow? For a very long time, homebrew and macports has solved Apple macOS not rollin
