Globalism as an ideology is distinct from globalization of trade. Globalists would argue for expansive supranational regulatory controls. Migration and alleged environmental concerns are typical rationalizations for their expanding powers.

Someone here mentioned the David Audley series by Anthony Price. I enjoyed it and will recommend it again. Although the starting premise is espionage, the stories are all detective mysteries. The plot is always intertwined with historical p

It is hard to know. Amorous gifts aren't uncommon, especially for those with the means. If it were done as tactlessly as your headline suggests, that would be problematic. However, as Musk is a partisan figure, I have a hard time accep

I'm sure those individuals will be fine without your pity. The point remains. You'll have a harder time understanding their motives if you start with demonization. "Well, he's a member of the naughty class so his behavio

Google could force a standard lib by including it with Chrome. This would solve part of the issue. JS as a language would still have significant warts.

Comedian Tim Dillon had some amusing, less partisan takes on this. His style is often an ironic parody of the self-serious. Yet another case of a comedian being more reasonable than the journalist classes. The author loses the high-ground w

Would you prefer 3rd party content about your product written in halting English or an AI generated article? Both options will be vaguely inaccurate. For me, the answer has generally been: Yes, I'll share it. Thanks for the content and

Typically for fetch() I return the error as "text/plain" with the appropriate status code. It is still necessary to give a preflight validation in Vanilla JS, apply an error style and helpful feedback. HTML has come a long wa

Apparently Maven has 61.9M indexed packages. As Java has a decent standard lib, mini libs like leftpad are not contributing to this count. NPM has 3.1M packages. Many are trivially simple. Those stats would suggest that NPM has disproportio

I believe that after 10k USD additional AML regulations kick in. Then there are a related class of pseudo-crimes around structuring payments to avoid the 10k threshold. Part of it may be PayPal's policies, but as I understand these thi

Even for dashboards or other cases where the React maximalists claim that application state is too complex, it is usually trivial to inline a bit of JSON representing the initial state and handle updates with Vanilla JS. For me, I appreciat

It may come as a surprise, but there were periods where taxes were contributed voluntarily or sworn under oath that they were accurate tabulations. Early Hamburg is a strong example here. There was an honor associated with paying taxes for

If the hiring process is dishonest, wouldn't that be a good sign to avoid them as a potential employer? I know I'm out here in my own space capsule, but it seems like a non-sequitur. Again, perhaps this is my own bias speaking, bu

Voters generally seem willing to embrace authoritarian solutions when it is applied to the things they dislike. The political classes have multiple incentives to appeal to those voters. Outside of a few outliers, neither group generally con

Political solutions are often messy and complex. Pragmatic fixes are rarely obvious and overreaches are common. Reforms are ongoing. Conversely, absolutists have no use for nuance. The war on cash is a good example. https://en.wi

Even if you accept those premises, reasonable people would expect limits on the power of the state to infringe upon property rights, even when backed by a popular majority. Furthermore, the principle of individual self-ownership is a key st

My strategy has been to limit my exposure to the larger NPM/Node.js ecosystem. I'll use it only in limited cases where a front-end dependency is required.
