A few notes I would make as an outsider: - conventionally we put the `node' struct at the start of the `user' struct. The advantage is that we can convert from node* to user* with a simple cast instead of messing around with offse

2/3 of the house means ~1/3 of the republicans. the tariffs as planned will have a disastrous effect on american consumers. I find it unbelievable that they wouldn't begin pressuring their representatives almost immediately.

I've seen some people argue that the market is currently in a bubble, and hence going down is expected. If it's a bubble, it sure don't pop like a bubble.

The idea that something is "supposed to" happen is a normative statement. But the idea that we aren't "supposed to" do anything is also normative, and is therefore self-contradictory. Any proposition that we are sup

There's very little an individual can sensibly do. You can't pick and choose every feature you want; you're given bundles of features and you have to pick which bundle you like best. This sort of bundling is deliberate anti-c
