You can’t make this shit up.

I would argue that a death threat, is not a "criticism", but something well beyond that.

>An individual "right" to own firearms was only created in 2008

You are conflating a SCOTUS ruling with a "right". The right was always there since the constitution was adopted.

It just wasn't a right that was challenged all the way up to the SCOTUS until 2008. That doesn't mean the right didn't exist before hand. It only means the SCOTUS confirmed a right that has existed all along.

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

If you can't take criticism that alone, should, disqualify you from public office.

> I would assume that an accurate model would be beneficial for everyone?

Beneficial to everyone except for those that print it, which is why is intentionally and needlessly over complex and laden with deceptive jargon.

I have had good luck with Hover. I don’t think it’s a problem of no good ones. It’s just a problem of the community hasn’t rallied around a de-facto “good” registrar, like they have with SSL certs.

So there it’s a bit more nebulous which leaves room for bad actors.

Not that I am arguing for a de-facto one, there are two sides to the coin, putting all our eggs in let’s encrypt might not be the wisest choice in the long run, although so far it seems ok, but does have its drawbacks.

First, I don't think LinkedIn would have any ground to stand on. Scrapping the public web, taking screenshots of public sites, posting those screenshots are not violations of copyright or trademark.

Secondly, censorship is almost always the wrong solution. I get wanting to promote peace, but you don't promote something by refusing/canceling any opposition to your idea. If your strategy to promote something is to silence any opposition then your idea probably sucks, and can't stand up to opposition.

Win on the battleground of ideas, not with the tyranny of forced opinion.

All the kids that played the Pinball game that came with Windows have grown up, become hipsters, got jobs, now have a little money, and either build their own pinball machines made with LCD screens, or have legit old retro machines.

There are expo's and stuff, people love this shit. In pinball there is a real strong connection to a physical (either with LCD, or mechanical) machine, it just isn't nearly as good on a computer, phone, tablet or in VR.

I would argue Gin/Go isn't really statically typed.

I mean sure you can specify that this var is a int32, but pretty much every tutorial, every code snippet out there, will do.

    myvar := 10

And just let Go guess what the type should be. So yeah, Go CAN be statically typed, but in practice it rarely is.

>Imagine releasing a game for 99 cents under the personal plan, where Steam takes 30% off the top for their platform fee, and then unity takes 20 cents per install, and now you're making a maximum of 46 cents on the dollar.

Not only that, but with this predatory practice of taking any percent (steam, apple) or fix dollar value, makes just having a game up a potential liability. If you need to refund anyone you are refunding the full $0.99 from your account, despite you only made $0.46 (steam and unity are going to keep theirs, its on you as the publisher to make up the difference). If you had a disastrous launch and had a majority of people seeking a refund, well not only did you hard work and effort not pay off, you owe $$$$ on top of that. In theory this liability is like shorting a stock and the loss potential is virtually limitless, you could end up owing millions.

>sidestepping the right wing alarmism and outrage by making it optional.

Spoken like a true fascist. It's always OPTIONAL....at first...then mandatory.

>not only does the Fed have no plans to issue a digital currency, but it has repeatedly said it wouldn’t do so without authorization from Congress.

What hell is FedNow, if not a digital currency. https://www.federalreserve.gov/paymentsystems/fednow_about.h...

As a group, women are more agreeable than men. If you are agreeable, then it’s less likely you will negotiate heavily when it comes to salary.

> An executive/politician gets into a car and it gets hacked to either kidnap or kill them...\

Rules for thee, not for me.

Executive/politician security teams aren’t going to be buying self driving cars for their clients.

This is false dichotomy, the only options aren't abortion or be mom, there are plenty of people that would love to adopt.

> “ Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum: The New Fascism”

I mean it’s not wrong. Have you read Klaus’s books? He is pretty open about the new era he wants to usher via the WEF.

Casinos? There is like 100’s of higher evils to worry about on the conspiracy list well before casinos (WEF, UN, WHO, etc.).

At least casinos are relatively honest about how they are screwing you.

Decriminalization is mostly pointless step and won't work to fix the "drug" issue. It only solves one piece of the puzzle, jailing non-violent people. You still have black markets, you still have stigmatization, you still have unknown and mystery substances (users don't know what they are actually getting).

To "solve" the drug issue we need full legalization and regulation of all drugs, and safe centers/locations where drugs can be used under medical supervision.

AKA, not nearly as many women worked in 1979 as do today.

> nor is it an implication that it’s for power-users.

Yes it is. As an administrator being a CLI tool means that I can automate configs and deployment with ansible or Nix OS. I would argue doing these sorts of automation what are what “power-users” would do.

GUI’s often lack any sort of automation capability or have some half-cocked API that usually lacks features or endpoints that would be trivial if the thing was just a CLI tool with a config file.

> I don't understand why ~FedNow and CBDC~ BIG BROTHER are such a big issue in the US.

Fixed this for you.

I don't really want a gigantic federal agency having insight into every financial transaction I make. Hard, fucking, pass.

Encryption bans are a fools errand. They don't work as there are always ways around them, and they make everything less secure and more vulnerable. It's a loose/loose situation. It's the worst for your average Joe who just wants to use twitter, check email, etc. but isn't tech savvy to know about PGP or steganography.

Dynamic how? Like pages that load content from a database? Typically anything “dynamic” is on the backend, all your static shit (images, videos, sounds, fonts, etc.) are in the front end and on a CDN, which will make calls to your backend, which would be on a VM or in a k8s cluster, which in turn may make database calls.

Additional? Implying I make at least 500k a year already? I wish, maybe I’m in the minority here. I’d be pretty stoked if I made only 500k a year, never mind the additional.

Been a very long time since I used https://ifttt.com, they seem to charge for more than 2 apps now. But, I feel like this is something that could easily be done with IFTTT, potentially for free if you don't already have 2 apps. So why wouldn't/shouldn't I just use IFTTT?

Ask it why diversity is bad.

"Let's use Reddit to promote boycotting Reddit!"

I have never used DOKS, but I wouldn’t really fret or worry it if I were you. You are using a managed k8s cluster, you should have everything you have deployed to it in git, and ideally something like Argo or helmfile where you could redeploy everything pretty easily.

If you need to pivot it should not be very hard, your not managing your own k8s cluster where you would needed to rework Terraform code for a new cloud provider, and learn the idiosyncrasies of setting up the cloud control manager, adding storage classes etc.

Since you are using managed k8s, I wouldn’t even think about DOKS, EKS, or GKE. Those are pretty irrelevant, at the end of the day you are using Kubernetes. Nothing you do in one can’t be used in another, your deployments, services, secrets, configmaps, ingresses, etc. are all going to be the same no matter your provider.

The biggest pain point with switching cloud providers (if you had to) would be migrating your database (assuming you have one).

> If someone told you that "50 years from now, there's going to be an earthquake in this exact spot; here's the data to back me up," it'd be kind of silly to say 25 years later "there's no earthquake. I don't see what all the fuss was about

No, it would be like someone saying they had scientific proof that an earthquake would happen in 25 years and 50 years later not so much as the tiniest tremor ever occurring.

There is no scientific “consensus” that there is a climate “crisis”. Just a small minority of loud fear mongers with political motivation.

There are literally hundreds of other pressing issues that are real crises that deserve attention way before climate.

Yeah, and the predicted we’d all be dead by now, how wrong they were/are.
