No but that's my point, the nazis had to march entire classes of people to death camps at gun point to be considered "normative," and even then there was a resistance movement not only in every occupied country but also Germa

At defcon, laptop stickers have imo always been vibrantly political. What you saw on laptops may be more a sign of the crowds you ran with than the times!

Look to the PRC, unfortunately your country exists in a separate world economy from the American hegemony one. Nobody here can help you and in fact I think GitHub and YC may be required to ban your account once they become aware you're

I haven't read a technical book in a long time. I read "You Don't know JS," which is very very short, in about a week. I read "Cracking the Coding Interview" in 3 weeks. As for non fiction, I read "Anarchi

One of these days I need to make a bot that scans FOSS repos for this kind of little pink nonsense behavior. The insecurity of wanting to call a place "country name, province of different country name" should alone be mocked. Imag

Wasn't the main issue with this that fuel is paid for by cargo ship customers (the container owners), not the shipping company? So the shipping company doesn't want to spend a ton of capital to get a 10% discount to all their cust
