I don’t think causus belli works like that in the modern day, and we haven’t cared about legal mandates for war in the US for like 50 years.
Vance probably won’t have a political mandate for continued war because a historically unpopular and getting more so by the moment president was killed in retaliation for a war he started.
He’s not even doing it for the pay anymore. He’s so far into it, if he stopped he would to actually acknowledge that he was bought and paid for by a foreign government to betray the interests of his voters and fellow citizens.
nah, plenty of people do dumb shit as kids. People grow, hopefully he finds the right mentoring and life experiences to become more media literate and empathetic.
FYI, there’s a website, downdetector, that aggregates user reports of outages for major websites and services.
You can hide things in submenus, tabs, side bars etc. so you can get get to lots of things in a few clicks, think BTrees for indexing data, but you can search through a screen more more easily by taking in multiple things at once compared to a vector of data.
The issue is that you can rebalance BTrees and no one notices, you “rebalance” a GUI and people’s pre-remembered paths are invalidated.
Hope it does well, but consider how hard it was to get people to move from WhatsApp to discord, getting them to use a niche federated option is going to be an uphill battle for any non-techie groups for a bit.
It’s also inherently something that has to happen to add new features on a GUI. There’s only so much real estate, you add more menu options, then the menu gets too big and you need to reorganize it.
Pipes and repeatability are the big advantages of CLI for me.
Someone asks me how to do something, I can give them one or more commands and they can parse that and understand it.
On a GUI I have to trying and navigate them either in person or through chat somehow. Plus, if they forget how, they might need to ask again instead of just finding the command in their chat history.
GUIs are better for poring through data as a whole, like Google docs, but CLIs are better when I want to do an operation or filter through things without looking at the thing itself, ie git or grep.
From a billionaire’s perspective, more at risk children means more people to be exploited. There’s a whole industry fed by cheap prison labor. Orphans who go through the prison system are incarcerated or arrested at nearly 50% much of which gets funneled into cheap labor.
It seems like you’re not from the US, but it doesn’t matter how many working class votes we have, many industries in this country thrive off of exploitation of people outside of the view of the general populace starting with slaves, continuing to indentured servants, and undocumented workers now. The next exploitable labor pool is the prison system, and children who would have been aborted are sent to foster care instead where they are funneled into the criminal justice system.
I’m not saying you should have an abortion just so the child doesn’t potentially end up in jail, I’m just pointing out how the incentives to have a permanent underclass would actually support bans on abortion.
I’m wondering if you’re maybe thinking of the book Freakonomics where they attribute the legalization of abortion with the drop in crime?
Please explain how abortions mean more money for billionaires.
Forget DHS or other government agencies, these companies have been shown to be untrustworthy stewards of our data from regular hackers.
I get that discord is used to groom kids and there is a very real risk to allowing children to use it unsupervised, but that means kids devices are the ones that need to be locked down, not the rest of the world.
Pick something with a good window manager, typing into a terminal without fingers and thumbs is going to be tricky.
Low margins because they’re expected to have returns equal or better than alternative investments. If they drop below that, then its not worth running a grocery store and you might as well liquidate and put your money where it will make higher returns.
If you don’t care about that, or can even run on a slight loss with some taxpayer subsidies then you can make the food a lot more affordable.
Some species of ants form rafts and “swim” on water.
Honestly, Canada takes Minnesota and the great lake state, and the east and west coasts form their own countries might not be the worst outcome in 10 years or so.
From my perspective, I would think of it as a sexual health issue, so there’s no reason to tell them. I would tell my parents if I had a flu, I’m not going out of my way to tell them if I’m taking a male enhancement drug or about my condom use.
Why is Suozzi even in the democratic party. Isn’t he the one who said that DSA members didn’t belong in his democratic party and they should go make their own while he is the one voting against the party, the people, and the constitution?
Where was Jeffries in all of this?
We’re rooting for the straits on Hormuz to reopen and whatever other chaos is rocking the oil markets to stop. Economic damage, especially on this scale, ends up in people dying from all sorts of causes in the US as well.
I don’t particularly care if we get a little more egg on our face if it means pulling up out of this tailspin.
