This is my learned opinion working as a FTE government contractor, as an IC.

If you look at this graph and your prescient thought is "haha take that MAGA" then you are a brainwashed ideologue. This graph gives a window into the layers of rot in our political system. The complexity is perfectly represented by its form but it seems like your graph is just a big arrow that says "orange man bad".

No. Science is inherently human-centric. If a line of academic research has no conceivable way of benefitting humans, at least indirectly, it is eventually halted.

Better we let 10 criminals go free than violate the god-given right to privacy of 1 innocent.

The government works better the fewer dollars and bureaucrats it has

Yes, just the UK and other similar countries. We have less influence over China and Iran

The UK knows their place. They could do that but they won't. Also, they'll have trouble even finding who the business operator is. The US allows pseudonymous business structures and their subpoena request will be thrown out on a 1st amendment defense.

Nope. US law is international law (because we have all the guns). The UK government would never defy us; they know their place.

That's the current status quo. The UK can't sue you, extradite you, or really do anything. Assuming that your service providers are US based and you follow US law, they can pound sand. In practice, the US is the only country powerful enough to enforce its laws extraterritoriality. The UK trying to enforce its internet laws on me? An American citizen? Funny joke

As if I'm going to comply with any UK laws. They still have the delusion they're some sort of empire. Good luck suing my American company

Go to South Sudan and tell me if you still feel the same way.

Quick guys someone make an MCP server with the codes. Fuck em!

The probability of COVID causing injury to your child is basically zero

Nanopore is good for hybrid sequencing. You can align the higher quality illumina reads against its longer contiguous reads

This is exactly why I'd rather get a fat VPS from a reputable provider. As long as the bandwidth is sufficient the only limitation is vertical scaling.

Usury is wrong even if it should be obvious to the debtor

Just drink the Koolaid. I hated the magic files but now I love them

Because those setups are too opinionated and mix too much stuff which makes them unstable. If you want a cohesive desktop experience, Mint Cinnamon is what you're looking for

Male instructors are more objective.

I wish the Cline extension was more performant. It has a 1000+ ms startup time for VScode and stutters occasionally. In terms of workflow though, it's my absolute favorite. I simply don't think the models are there yet for fully agentic coding in any reasonably complex/novel codebase. Cline lets me supervise the LLM step by step.

> I think Linus should be more respectful of other people

You all need to grow thicker skin. If we're really engineers, we can't dance around criticism. Linus' comment was about the code; he never insulted the developer. If you attach your self worth to the code you write that's your problem.

What would you have him do? Sugarcoat it? "Uh actually sweetie please rework this function it's not quite there".

It's a PR; honest, unbiased feedback on the code (and optionally how to improve it) is the only thing that matters. If the code is garbage then the reviewer needs to say so.

I don't need to. Just look at your immediate surroundings and ask yourself "who are the millionaires responsible for these products I enjoy?". Every component in your phone, computer, the chair in which you sit, the building you are in, the clothes you wear, and the car you drive. As a rule, people get rich because they create things, not because they exploit others. That's how capitalism works and it does work

Psychiatry is loosely based on science and 90% of the drugs they prescribe are net harmful

This isn't investment based citizenship (which yes, has loopholes because you can funnel the profits out of the country). You pay the government directly

Your edge cases don't refute my claim

90% of the time, yes.

This is good. The central claim here is: if you can afford to pay $1 million, then you are almost certainly going to be a net benefit to our society.

That's a far better and more meritocratic vetting process than some lotto visa with a 10 year backlog.

Bad analogy, but yes actually. This is one reason people buy drugs from illegal online pharmacies - cost. I

Runtime imports are a maintenance nightmare and can quickly fragment a codebase. Static analysis of imports is so desirable that it is almost always worth the initialization performance hit. Tradeoffs.
