" that sort of experience en masse can have huge decades-long impacts in a complex system like the US Federal government." I am totally convinced Trump will be the most impactful president since a long time. All the stuff they are

From my experience it does. A lot of VPs and higher have no direct experience with the things they are responsible for so can be easily manipulated by smooth talkers. I just attended a strategy meeting where a lot of higher ranks asked que

"What's not to get? This is what privatization does. It's not for proper care of patients, it's for money to flow upwards to a single individual." I get that they are maximizing profits. But why does the process hav

Most people will bend to the will of a powerful autocrat. Only a few people will actively resist when there is a risk of retribution.

What i don’t get is that the US system is not only super expensive but also totally clunky. As patient you need to track who is in an out of network, nobody can tell you how much something will cost, provider directories by the insurance a

Boring is great as long as you aren't looking for a job. There is a significant risk that you are slowly removing yourself from the job market if you stick to boring tech. Your next employer often doesn't give a sh.t that you prov

That's probably the real goal. I was a little skeptical about Project 2025 but it really looks like they are following it.

I think it may work in the long term but it requires a lot of domestic investment to create that manufacturing capacity. This would require investor confidence that the tariffs will stay around for a long time. In the short term it will jus

Just keep in mind that it portrays a lot of the characters in a cartoonish way.

I think old saying “slow is quick, quick is slow” applies here. Don’t do anything stupid because you are in panic mode.

What's the alternative? Complain that you never get a match? The recommendation to only contact people you think are a perfect match and then send a customized message doesn't work.

“ Women complain about the poor quality of conversations they encounter” From my experience in online dating there are a lot of women who expect the guy to do everything. He needs to approach and then also carry the conversation. Out of ma

I didn’t run the numbers but I also quickly figured that the only chance to make progress is to like a lot of profiles. For a while i liked only profiles which i thought are a really good fit but got no responses. Turns out spamming works

Dictators always liked to exploit the idealism of young people. The Nazis had the Hitler youth, China had the Red Guards, most prison guards for the Khmer Rogue were teenagers. They happily did the dirty work and could be discarded easily o

Don't forget that Trump is approaching 80. I don't know how well he will be able to keep up.

How else are their armies of lawyers supposed to justify their existence? It's the same as having a ton of UX people on staff who have to constantly move buttons around and change color schemes to stay busy.

The Trump people went extremely well prepared into this. They are spamming with a ton of things, often legally questionable. They know that Congress doesn't have a backbone and lawsuits will take a very long time. It's a brilliant

I was excited about PowerShell at first but after doing a mid size project it, I don't like it anymore. It's such an odd language with too many quirks once you get serious. I think they would have been better off using C# syntax.
