Yes, the US is actually unique in this position. It even has it's own name the "American Rule." In every other country, the loser pays the winner's legal fees.

The court of public opinion is a thing, and the onus isn't on us to not trust a rich tech bro to not be an unethical person. That's on them to fix their image + avoiding jail time. The rest of us are allowed to rightfully laugh at

Funny because the CD player in my car has been dead for like 16 years but the cassette player has never been better. Wonder why the cassette player lasted much longer, guessing the optical drive in the car is damaged because CDs will fail t

Bro do you know what industry we work in? We work in an industry that openly champions destroying the jobs of others then sarcastically told them to learn how to code. It's no wonder the general public has open disdain towards big tech

Sure, the immediate response is have you been paying attention at all to the data center buildouts and the responses by US civilians? If you can't even acknowledge how Americans are already turning to active resistance of these buildou

There is zero evidence we would pay more for healthcare under medicare for all, what a bunch of neoliberal nonsense. The idea that a for-profit system is more efficient than say medicare is hilariously out of touch. Medicare is one of the m

We know how efficient government operates tho, the admin expenses of say social security and medicare is less than 3%. Pray tell, what corporation operates with 3% admin expenses? Once again, what a crock of shit.

Number one expense for SMB is healthcare, providing a nationalized healthcare service would likely unlock trillions in value (imagine what Americans would do if they got $200-500 more per paycheck?). Instead we are forced to watch some of t

I tried to use templ but it felt more frustrating than ergonomic. Like at that point I'd rather just use react (and I hate react). Just sticking with basic std templates + HTMX sprinkling is good enough for my needs.
