I think C requires more of people. Granted I am no C expert but having worked in the industry a couple decades I have made conclusions based on observations. As a sysadmin I wrote a small kernel module to trigger a panic on a certain condit

This would be interesting to swap out on a small farm tractor. Dont need much horsepower and the tractor frame is a beast. In fact you normally add counterweights in areas when doing heavy work

Not really new. Scribes, news reporters, telegrams and telephones all throughout history have enjoyed immunity from the content they didnt generate. Ever hear "Don't kill the messenger?"

From my perspective using GKE or any other k8s service isn't you running k8s. It's you paying devops salaries to release managers.

So if we make it easier for criminals to take the things we spent our life working to obtain. We are better off ? You do realize theft is essentially stealing the part of your life you spent working for that thing ?

Keep in mind groups is 18 years old. It started as an email list and I can tell you we had 12 email servers and they sat at around 2k message a second... steady. We didn't even alert until they hit 20k in the queue. The photos in Group

I think you dont understand the cost of democide. Being disarmed by your govt is a very dangerous position. What do you put as the value of human life ? How about 262 million lives ? His research shows that the death toll from democide is

Too little activity ? When I worked on it back in 2010 the sheer volume of email sent was staggering. The issue with groups always was and always will be monetizing it.

If you think breaking the law to get bad people doesnt set a precedent that will be abused you havent been paying attention at all. The patriot act and the revoking of rights without due process was sold as something to fight terrorists. No

You should care and at some point you will. When you let the rules slip eventually that slippage will be used against you. History shows this... First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialis

The interesting part about that to me is the authorities seem to break the law with impunity under the guise of enforcing the law. Seems a bit disingenuous to do this. Why not sell drugs as a cop to arrest people for buying them... er wait.

Agreed, however those who arent intelligent repeat the same emotional responses over and over. Intelligence gives you the possibility of changing that, unintelligent dont have that possibility.

Having intelligence is quite important. Otherwise you have a higher propensity to react with emotions and do irrational things. See : Modern society

The US road taxes doesnt cover the damage done. Not to mention the US is huge, the actual cost of fixing the infrastructure would be staggering. It needs fixing too.

Why is it tired? The wealthy benefit from the social infrastructure they live in. Should they not pay for it ? Think of the wear and tear the roads get from the Amazon delivery service alone.
