This makes me want to try omarchy

Is that why we adopted the Mercator projection? No, it's not

They're huge if you look at area, but what about other axes?

Maybe you're right about that super specific issue, IDK

It's mathematically impossible. Political mathematics always ends well

Typical. They're trying to make the 3rd world huge

Surprised nobody

This is good for Americans. I'm not sorry.

> if the Democrats do not take control of most likely both the House and Senate in November then the chance for any sort of peaceful transfer of power in 2028 from Trump to a potential Democratic successor is vanishingly low.

I LOLed

A rich guy is always a target for certain women that are motivated by money. He has every reason to protect his reputation and money by proactively settling the matter officially. Sexual assault is a serious allegation

"Building a skill" is the agentic equivalent of "writing a script." It is done all the time by almost everyone who uses agents. A skill can be trivial or massive.

Most of the time, I'd advise against writing a skill by hand directly.

A common pattern is walking through how to do something step-by-step and then after it does what you want successfully, ask the agent "Create a new skill to capture this workflow."

I laugh everytime I have to explain that "Apache Arrow format is more efficient than JSON. Yes, the format is called 'Apache Arrow.'"

I'm sorry that God offended your morals.

Also this isn't really "the torah" it's the talmud

What's the answer? Why have they diverged so much?

What metric do you want to judge ICE by if not their number of apprehensions, stash houses raided, etc.?

There's nothing bad faith here, it was a simple question.

Sounds like you aren't even sure whether the law is good or bad "[I don't care what the paper says]". You hate ice because they seem like they're Gestapo. Then maybe next time, don't appeal to the law to argue "ICE is illegal"?

It’s misleading to treat record deportations as evidence of restriction. Both Obama and Biden presided over record illegal inflows, and deportations rose largely because the pool of removable people grew faster than enforcement capacity. Inflow dominated outflow, and policy choices further reduced future removability, so net illegal presence increased despite high deportation counts.

The screenshots of internal documents show positive results:

"[...] resulted in 6 stash houses being identified"

"[resulted in the] identification of 135 stash houses"

"692 apprehensions"

Collab with FBI, USBP...

etc., etc.

I don't see how this is supposed to look bad for ICE. It actually makes them look good.

I don't get it, seems like international central bankers would be the last group of people to have America's best interests in mind.

DOGE was mostly about government efficiency and restructuring rather than actually proving vast fraud. What DOGE did accomplish is cutting a lot of politicized / ideologically driven spending.

Fraud is a serious crime and it is not just "political actions that I don't like." The Somalian fraud rings are actually fraud on a vast scale. So please stop defending actual fraud, which is supposed to not be a partisan issue

This is a strange test to care about. As if people choose linux vs. windows based off of performance on one specific benchmark on one specific hardware platform.

Would you rather they cut out whatever information they're trying to "hide" from the underlying HTML so that it never hits your browser and you have no chance of seeing it?

To be honest, this paper boils down to "to hell with your arbitrary Western morals!!"

What about "to hell with your subversive foreign practices?"

Hello sir, my question is: What do you think of the trump admin?

No, it was actually the massive Somalian fraud ring in Minnesota that has been in the press recently. The Minnesota DHS actually whistleblowed on Tim Walz the governor for ignoring it.

Poppler is also good

In my opinion there's no reason to stick to the "old school" / classic emacs controls. They're archaic at this point.

I am an experienced emacs user and I still use CUA mode, arrow keys, and I wrote a package which completely overhauls built-in "word jumping" commands (called bbww on melpa.)

You don't need to worry about upholding traditional emacs orthodoxy

I disagree with the premise that illegal immigration is OK

Why are they refusing to call it the War department?
