Good hit him with her car and he is law enforcement. She should have put her car in park and surrendered to the officers as they were instructing her to do. The agents and the Goods both didn't appear there in the street out of a vac

Get to work, ha. People are too fickle and their brains are too easily hacked with the latest craze to trust them to do the right thing, whatever that is in your opinion, especially en masse.

I am in a very similar boat, age and experience-wise. I would like to work backward from the observation that there is no resource constraints and we're collectively hopelessly lost up the abstraction Jenga tower. I observe that the w

I am not having fun with GitHub Actions right now! Why does everything have to be so hard? I like being able to run self-hosted runners, that is a very cool part of GitHub Actions/Workflow. I appreciate all the other advice about limi

The best promotion advice I have is to pick a great manager who is genuinely motivated to help you advance in your career. You won't get promoted easily by a manager who's checked out or likes counting beans. Managers like that ar

Disgusting. I couldn't even read through to the end. Are there some perverse incentives to having the OS upgrades be free? Is that what is causing this? Do they simply have no taste?

I wrote a C++ implementation of the Framework for Integrated Test (FIT) called CeeFIT, and I was really proud of the way it registered fixtures at compile time. Anyhow, I was surprised that more than one user was using CeeFIT as a sort of b

It's not obvious and not a willfully stupid interpretation when Musk has been the largest defense contractor for years. There's more going on than your 1-dimensional bad guy narrative covers. Doge did not save any money, but it d

There was some interesting testimony. None of the politicians were incentivized to take the hearing seriously, so there was a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing from them. That's what I meant by reeing. > do you have anyone wh

Are you arguing there are no bullshit, make-work government jobs? What a strange thing to bring up, a bit of a slip. Then again, of course there are good, hard working people in government. Lots of them. Does it need to be said? Then again

I share your concerns. He says pro-human things, mostly. What he actually works on probably has dreadful consequences.

Loosely held, remember? No need to be so strident. The browbeating is a bit much, you should be more humble. Regime change in the noble pursuit of upholding the status quo, that is to say, the rules-based liberal order - liberal democracy

That's silly, your Musk sounds cartoonish. The world isn't so simple and humans are not one-dimensional. I don't have any conclusions on Doge, and I won't settle for conspiracy theories. It's not obvious to me wha

You asked, I provided. Do whatever you want. It seems your mind was already made up. Summary: it's a difficult to watch video full of reee'ing on both sides.

I agree fully on the prosecutions. It's long since time for scoundrels to be frog marched off to jail. I am of the opinion that there was corruption (waste and fraud and abuse) in pre-doge government. If you think everyone was clean

That's great to hear, but perhaps I will ask too much even of the M-series chips. Occasionally, I will show 3 things at once: an MP4 that the Mac Mini plays from its storage transitioning into captured hdmi signal from a canon camera

Your system sounds centralized, and because lots of other people/the government are involved, I predict it will produce a cyberpunk, pink slime and soylent green dystopia. I have lost faith that other people who are not in my situation
