See my other comment. Coles notes is until we solve the problem with unwanted children being born I will be pro-abortion.

Definitely not see my other post.

Nope. I actually think life is sacred. The reason I’m pro-abortion is because I think anything that can be done to further impede children being born when we have hundreds of thousands of children in America alone who are orphans. That is a travesty.

My challenge to anyone who is anti-abortion would be are they adopting? Because their shit position is perpetuating a stream of children being born without someone to care for them either physically or emotionally.

In a perfect world, abortion would not exist outside of medical necessity. Unfortunately we do not live in a perfect world and as such many women are having children to be born into a cold and loveless world.

It’s sad. I could not imagine how cruel someone would have to be to be anti-abortion and yet so willing to effectively let a child’s life be aborted once they’re born.

Pro-choice yes. Haven’t heard many actually pro-abortion.

I’m pro abortion and against the death penalty! Someone ask me! I promise I’m not a troll. I am honestly pro abortion not just pro choice.

And whoa man is that a bigger deal that I realized. I still comment and snoop on Reddit infrequently but I’m active here. Less trolls. Minimal bots. Lots of high quality comments.

Yes I miss the niche at times but honestly? This is home now.

That asshat Netanyahu already condemned the UN as, and I’m paraphrasing “full of anti-Semites”

Seriously there is rot in the Israeli government and it is making Jews around the world more hated and less safe.

There is no “fatigue” with Justin Trudeau.

I strongly disagree and anecdotally the sentiment plays out.

People are pissed off and struggling because of the decisions that their municipal or provincial government make, and then misattribute that pain to the federal government.

You’re also ignoring the litany of bullshit the Liberals have fumbled during their time in office as well as the multiple very public scandals around what amounts to a very publicly perceived “not giving a shit about Canadians”.

Housing affordability, healthcare, education, traffic congestion, crime, homelessness, childcare, or even snow removal ARE NOT the responsibility of the federal government.

They are everyone’s responsibility don’t try to pass the buck. The Fed’s have an obligation just as much as provincial and municipal.

As someone who leans left and has voted Liberal on multiple occasions making it out like they’re the victim is complete and utter bullshit.

Canada is so fucked. I understand the fatigue with Justin Trudeau and the Liberals but if PP wins it truly is cutting off your nose to spite your face.

We deserve whatever comes from the next election. A person is smart. People are dumb.

First problem is she’s expecting a right boob like me to review her pull request. Second problem is I don’t give a shit.

XML is fine. Namespaces have a special place in hell though

Best is when you’re at the end and you bring out the spatula. It’s like a mini Christmas.

Seriously. In Canada too. Our countries are huge but even in populated areas like LA there are well documented food deserts.

When I write APIs I like to set endpoints to return all status codes this way no matter what you’re doing you can always be confident you’re getting the expected status code.

If you’re serious about monitoring your shit this is really the best answer. Zabbix is love. Zabbix is life.

On the nose. Thank you for explaining it far more eloquently than I was able to.

I said nothing about the ingenuity and problem solving. That’s not the concern. I also didn’t take any exception on work ethic or intelligence. You’re putting words in my mouth.

There is of course a difference in that you’re talking about artistic creativity whereas I’m talking about programming creativity.

Your example works great for artistic creativity. On my side, not so much. I am fearful of people coding in python who do not know what they’re coding as an example.

Counter counterpoint. Without the fundamentals you will struggle in understanding your capabilities.

You could be a virtuoso in playing the piano but without understanding how to read and write sheet music you will be hampering your ability to learn other instruments. Note I am not saying you can’t. I’m saying it’s harder.

I will be honest as a late GenX it’s going to be interesting as my cohort retires because we were the last generation to remember before The Internet and grew up to understand the technology not just use it.

If you’re my age or older please make sure you’re teaching your young coworkers how to break things and put them back together without the aid of all the tools and resources they have at their fingertips now. Creativity thrives in adversity. Creativity is at risk when tools like ChatGPT are at their fingertips now.
