Which is strange if that is the case because they have no jurisdiction to make any kind of veiled threats towards U.S. citizens.

I took it to mean if the "movement" (of which you are a member) is donating that much money, but I can see your interpretation as well. It's ambiguous, which is not a good look for an official on such an important topic.

Here's David Lametti, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada. He was asked directly whether or not people who donate to the movement should be worried.[0] >If you are a member of a pro-Trump movement who is donating hund

I am not a crypto fan, but it's becoming more and more clear to me that crypto is the battleground for governments versus people. To survive and function, governments need the ability to levy taxes. This means that income needs to be t

The need for civil forfeiture demonstrates a clear failing of the system. The system says "we can't nail this person legally but we 'just know' they did something bad, so we'll break the rules." Same with warra

To be fair, there are a lot of logical hiccups in people's reasoning too. But when you boil those away, often there is still a different value system underneath, as you suggest.

Squats, deadlifts, and a desk with a treadmill underneath. You don't have to go crazy with any of them (no need to try to compete in power lifting). Just keep your body strong by safely using it in the way it was designed to (walking,

That's like saying civil forfeiture is ok because the police will only ever take things from people involved with actual crimes, and that if you're not doing crime you have nothing to worry about. Do you forget how things are mani

This might sound kind of bizarre, but I don't really try to learn. I think I have a minor learning disability where I have a very hard time remembering things that I deem (consciously or not) as unimportant in the long term. Instead,

I love the motivation for this tool. This looks very useful for when you just want to make something easier in an existing shell script, without fully migrating to Python. If you do want to migrate fully to Python, I encourage people to u

You're right, the theme is a dystopian climate nightmare. The resource management, regular sacrifices, and dealing with growing human problems make it feel like a small company that is struggling to grow and succeed, which is more rela

If you want to add more of the human dynamic to resource management and refactoring, I suggest FrostPunk. While Factorio feels more like managing and scaling code, FrostPunk feels like running a startup. It's rewarding, but very stress

Great explanation. The only part that tripped me up was in determining the number of octets to represent the codepoint. From the post: >From the previous diagram the value 0x1F602 falls in the range for a 4 octets header (between 0x10000

On this particular small team, there was no style guide, and nobody could agree on what would go in it. It was dysfunctional.

Agreed, and what's interesting is that despite all of those pointless style debates, there hasn't been much pushback on using reformatters (that I've seen). This tells me that the debates weren't really about "my st

I'm so happy that languages are settling more and more on heavy reformatter usage. I'd like to think it was triggered by Go and gofmt. Working on a team where each engineer has their own personal syntax is not fun.

Very nice. Have you built any other algorithm visualizations? I have a very strong interest in how algorithms are visualized so that they are more easily understood.

This brings the idea of modern work much closer to slavery, minus the physical cruelty. It also brings up uncomfortable taboo questions, like if some people actually desire to be the slaves of a benevolent master.
