If Trump is allowed to carry out his deportation plans, he’ll deport American citizens (“by accident”), I guarantee it.

Let me tell your about prizefighters…

It’s funny because JD Vance is overshadowing Trump. I see more talk about JD Vance than I do about Trump.

Trump needs the hate and attention, his supporters like him because he is counter-culture. Trump is their guy in the fight. If that stops then Trump becomes just an old rich white guy. This is why Trump plays the victim card every speech and talks about all the attacks he’s constantly suffering.

We’re seeing more and more that our “free market” with its “competition” doesn’t provide goods and services that most people want, which makes me wonder, why have free markets and competition?

I believe the full quote is “As long as I gave it my all, that’s what this is about”.

I thought it was about who would be President and all that entails, but apparently is actually about Joe doing his personal best.

At least C++ build tools are easier than modern JS.

There’s also websites hosted in countries that don’t care about US law. We can access those even without a VPN, for now…

Yeah… There’s a lot of people complaining about politicizing the legal system tonight, and those same people said nothing when Trump’s most popular campaign promise was to put his political rival in jail.

“And you know, you go back through history, this is like just before the Holocaust. I swear. If you look, it’s the same thing,” Trump said. “You had a weak president or head of the country. And it just built and built. And then, all of a sudden, you ended up with Hitler. You ended up with a problem like nobody knew.”

So Trump is claiming that Biden is a weak leader, and that after the weak leader comes somebody like Hitler. Trump hopes to be the person that comes after Biden…

Senior developer here, it looks like they are helping to me.

Careful, the 100,000 kg of pizza will turn into manure.

Programmer pay is so bizarre, it makes me cynical about our entire economy.

If I’m a blue-collar worker maintaining the wires between banks, I get paid little. If I’m a programmer maintaining the banking software that controls everyone’s money and is essential to the entire nation, I’m paid a little more, but not as much as some programmers.

If I’m a young man who creates a webpage that barely works venture capitalists are tripping over themselves trying to shove millions of dollars into my hands.

(Although, creating a webpage was the hot thing last decade, now the hot thing is creating an AI.)

Trump lost an election and now 30% of the nation doesn’t trust elections. Now the same thing will happen to the courts.

In times past they got shit done, and now we see that what they’ve done is shit and we’re stuck maintaining it.

Giving bombs to Israel without condition is a… 6 point story I think

Our bug is their status quo.

Cognitive dissonance.

For a lot of people, either they accept “this trillion dollar corporation that controls all my computers, and the programming languages I use, and my code editor, is evil”. Or they accept “this trillion dollar company does lots of good things for me and is good”.

One is easier to accept than the other.

I like to put my estimates in writing somehow.

“My initial and unbiased estimate is 3 months.” Put it in an email, nothing will ever change the fact that my initial estimate was 3 months.

At first I though it said “Communism is the key to efficiency in a software engineering organization”; at first I thought it said something new
