Pretty confident it’s going to be EUR, note how they dealt with Trump tariff’s shenanigans. Took it slowly, and decidedly, sure let the countries say words and what not, but at the end of the day it’s decided by the EU. Just one persons opinion.

Yeah, Nah, 0 chance.

Linus Torvalds, imo, is the reason we have open source, through Linux & Git. He’s the open source philosopher king.

I think he’s put enough in to know where his allegiance lies, over a 2010 US citizenship - a very different world.

There is also 0 chance, US/MS government hasn’t put a lot of pressure on him over the last 34 years of creating and spreading, at least the OS form of socialism

"hey," is a project I've been developing over the past several years, exploring a question that feels increasingly important for distributed systems:

Can identity, topology, and communication emerge directly from information itself — without configuration, without fixed IDs, without ports, without keys, and without a discovery service?

In "hey,", every node starts from the same initial bytes (ROOT) and evolves a recursively defined structure by folding in every event it experiences: - success or failure when binding a port - messages received - local input - the state projections of other nodes

This evolving structure is not metadata. It is the node’s identity, its history, and its behaviour model.

From that single structure, nodes deterministically derive: - their network port - their next fallback port - how they interpret peer messages - how they respond - and how they integrate into the mesh

There is no configuration. No bootstrap server. No membership protocol. No global routing.

Yet nodes still discover each other, stabilise into a mesh, form communication channels, and maintain a shared symbolic dataspace — what I think of as a “symbol economy,” where meaning emerges naturally from entropy and interaction.

The system is minimal, but the implications are larger: it hints at distributed systems driven by number theory and information flow rather than named identities or predesigned roles.

This could form the basis for: - self-assembling P2P networks - identity models rooted in informational history - new forms of symbolic deduplication or superposition - topology that emerges mathematically rather than being configured - communication layers defined by entropic deltas instead of message schemas

The project is still early, but the underlying idea feels promising, and the current implementation already shows coherent (and sometimes surprising) emergent behaviour.

If nothing else, I hope it gets the noggin turnin

Alternatively, who would you trust with your data, an Ad company run by a McKinsey executive, or an NPO with a direct revenue stream partnered with Apple?

I’m not sure they need to coordinate, except for the state of US Politics. Take the hit now, then seek a long term better deal elsewhere, with more stable policies.

Out of curiosity, would you still need to pay the full tariff, if the cost of an item that was shifted to a token/smart contract, that only enabled a right to purchase, but reduce the device cost to like a dollar or shipping.

It’d be pretty cool if someone derived a legal smart contract solution. One could argue that, the tech enabled products are two things a digital service, and a manufactured product. Those costs could be potentially be seperated.

Then again, I know nothing ^_^

Interesting, I’d like to understand your argument. What exactly are you trying to say? I’d say what you see as kindness and generosity, was not so much that as a tool, to create and maintain an American economy that far outweighs its actual importance. Aid, Commoditised people, Petrodollar, Reserve currency.

One thing, I’d like to understand is do regular Americans think that the country, following an isolationist policy will out compete the rest of the world?

I’ve become a bit of fan of it over the last few years. That said, I don’t think the UK can be replicated.

It wraps ultimate power up in a contradiction, you have it but you can’t use it. Sure, technically you could but it would be your last act.

Another important aspect, the for and against is currently split between parties, so there’s somewhat of unification factor between parties on that divide as well.

It gets a lot of hate, because it is imperfect, but I don’t think it gets its fair shake. My views more of, if it ain’t broke is it really worth the risk changing it.

I can’t add much to this topic, but I did come across a word yesterday which may fit how OP is feeling.

Ennui: A feeling of listlessness and dissatisfaction arising from a lack of occupation or excitement.

It is estimated that bears kill over two million salmon a year. Attacks by salmon on bears are much more rare.

I'm gonna miss the ding of the seatbelt sign.

This whole I'm not a lawyer business brings this to mind... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DKF9KCcXkAA11ez.jpg

I'm guessing you can tap on the padlock to enter your passcode.

Have you tried vim? When I say tried, attempted to actually get into it. Not accidentally open it && stack overflow how to quit. You can easily do what you mention in vim... and I have no doubt, much quicker. Let's not forget vim gives you the power of cli, in addition to all it's other text manipulation benefits.

Just my opinion from working with them everyday. Angular is more of a monolithic beast attempting do everything, and mostly it can. React is more of a microorganism with one goal, which it excels at. For me, Angular feels heavy, especially since the introduction of NgModules. I guess the million breaking changes that occurred from AngularJs to Angular2 might have left a bit of a sour taste in mouth, regarding the framework. How can they introduce NgModules in like beta 10? Angular isn't a bad framework, but the question goes down to would you rather have one framework that try to do everything, or many frameworks that each try do their one thing. There are pros and cons to both. On an even more opinionated note, I really enjoy the syntax, and feel of React(jsx)... which something I don't get with Angular components. I'm not even gonna start on redux, but it's pretty fun when you get the hang of it. As with a lot of things in programming but each to their own.

From someone who works with Angular everyday, on a multitude of projects... Angular feels far too heavy in comparison to React. While Angular can do the job, there's just too much bloat.

Beat me to it. ^^

A good first step would be to revoke `Citizens United`

Hey person of the world, I truly appreciate this comment. Please keep on keeping on, so many kudos to you. As a developer, I oath to pay more attention to my development practices in the future. I feel bad, but honestly, I'd never considered the ramifications of an alt tag in the context you mention. I'm sure there are so many ways I could make the any website I develop more user friendly, but they are just things some people, including myself, take for granted. Please create a github.io page listing in what ways webpages/apps can be improved. It's not about market growth, for me, it's about exclusion... and that be bullshit. Hit me up with a link if you do. I for one, would be indebted.
