the lead dev has gone on the record that using singular they in the documentation is putting politics into his project, so i expect it to be possibly technically interesting (emphasis on possibly), but no effort put into accessibility and with a fucking horrendous dev community.

i think the way they want it to be understood is "if elected, i will so thoroughly address all of the issues you care about that you don't have to vote on them again", which is kind of reasonable until you try working out how that would happen

clearly foreign adversaries are trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids

i know at one point they were quite proud to have a federal (DHS i think?) cybersecurity department on there. like, there was an announcement. this was a couple years ago, so i guess stuff may have changed since then, but i don't trust like that.

infosec dot exchange. they gleefully welcomed feds on there

in a week he'll be talking about how the woke communists tried to kill him and we need to return the favor to them

from what that link says, it sounds like the rule was made mostly to get around employers saying "this part of your paycheck is a bonus, not a wage, so it's exempt from the time and a half rule"

nah, that's a load bearing personal fantasy. once you put it in, it's never coming out.

so, start with:

x = 0.999...

now multiply each side by 10

10x = 9.9999....

now we subtract x from the left side, and 0.999... from the right, which is fine because they are equal:

9x = 9

and from there it should be fairly obvious that x is also equal to 1, which means 0.999... is also equal to 1

i have a hard time reading the conversation as anything but pro-colonial

a "fun" game i like to play is when i encounter an anarchist writer i'm not familiar with is to search for the author plus age of consent/majority/adulthood/etc. this pretty reliably brings up a good reason to disregard their entire body of work.

youtube makes a lot of money off of nazi(-adjacent) content. it's a core part of their business model at this point

our possessions tie us to our past, and it's to our benefit to choose those ties carefully. how does having those big troves of things you will never look at again make you feel?

ah yes, the "i don't want you to know how much this is astroturfed" protests, against the "we want to know how much astroturf is there" law.

"you can maybe criticize our ally, but only if you give an equal amount of time, or maybe a bit more, to criticizing their enemies"

i mean, the way the supreme court has operated historically (and especially in the last few years) means they can delete basically any law they don't like, but you are correct that the decriminalisation of homosexuality is only based on a court verdict. many states never removed the relevant laws from their books, so they could in theory be enforced again if the court changes their precedent.
