Punch a tree until it falls. Make an axe out of wood. Use it to chop more trees down. Find shelter for the night. Build a crafting table. Wait until sunrise. Run around until I find sheep. Kill them for wool. Make a bed.

Brandt’s remarks are a reminder that many Social Democrats are still reluctant to embrace the country’s “Zeitenwende” — a historic turning point — on defence, which former SPD chancellor Olaf Scholz declared in the wake of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Wow what weasely writing. The Social Democrats don’t want to build up another German military-industrial nightmare and the press says they are still reluctant to embrace austerity in favor of world war.

Well. The social democrats are going to lose, like they always do in an economic crisis, and many will die because of it.

Do you get this paranoid when you see an article from the BBC?

Yeah, because those societies are shaped by their failure to manage dark triad personalities in the first place. Pretty obvious.

Money. Plan and simple. The right wing is the side with all the money and they spend it on producing propaganda regardless of its economic viability. Just look at Prager U’s financials. They pay dozens of content creators to pump out content even though it’s not profitable. There’s not enough money in the left wing to counter that.

Mind, I don’t count Democrats as left wing.

You think an M-L community is supportive of Trump? Where do you get your thoughts from?

How many times does it have to be said.

China is not trying to conquer Taiwan Island.

China is not trying to win a battle over Taiwan Island.

China is not trying to dominate Taiwan Island.

China is creating the conditions for the people living on Taiwan Island to choose integration with China over integration with the imperialist West. Taiwan Island, as a province of China, will choose to align its local governance with the national government of China when it feels safe and ready to do so and China has stayed for decades that this is the only way reunification will proceed.

Congress is stacked against Democrats. There really isn’t anything they can legally do until they regain the Senate or the House

Except praise ICE, I guess. It doesn’t really matter that Congress is stacked against the Democrats. They’ve shown everyone who they are and what they stand for and it’s not clear in the least that they would behave significantly differently if they were in power. From Biden building the wall to Kamala saying “Do not come”, and all of the messaging of the Ds since they lost and now 75 Ds voting to praise ICE…

75 Democrats just voted to express gratitude towards ICE.

They’re actually going to work and doing their job, not sitting on their hands. The reality is that most Dems are just part of this ongoing process and have no intention to resist it, even if they had power.

The Democratic party

The Earey Canal!

All canals are artificial

Bing. O.

Have you tried Chimera yet?

I am so tired of these sorts of shallow analyses from people that think their screw-ups are actually caused by EDAs or micro services or whatever. They’re even totally transparent about the fact that they did because they heard cool things but never say “so we sat down to learn about best practices, what the current state of the art is, and considered how our use cases matched the architecture”

They just say “we thought it would be cool so we just started doing it and it sucked - here’s why that’s an inherent problem of the architecture and not in any way related to our behavior”.

Yes. If you take a team of people who build n-tier and hexagonal MVC monolithic apps, and then tell them to build micro services, they’re going to build a bunch of n-tier or hexagonal MVC monolith candidates and eventually end up with a single service that does too much and ultimately becomes the monolith.

Yes. If you take a team that does 100% synchronous HTTP interfaces, SOAP or ReST, and then tell them to build microservices, they’re going to daisy chain those microservices via synchronous HTTP interfaces, and if you tell them to build an EDA they are going to build an EDA that attempt to replicate all of the aspects of their synchronous HTTP interfaces with busy polling loops.

So stop doing that and actually do the hard thing of learning fundamentally different architecture, techniques, technologies, trade offs, best practices, operational patterns, design patterns, and heuristics and principles for managing software. Learning is difficult and humbling. But it sure beats writing ignorant articles like this.

No, it’s not bad in the least. No one of any importance will even notice it, let alone ask you about it. I’m great at school and I took 5 and half years to finish college. It had no impact on my life at all

Feels like a psyop, honestly

Azure runs almost entirely on Linux. MS has no need to be afraid of it.

The world order that created America’s prosperity was ultra violence and super imperialism resulting in the deaths, abject suffering, and domination of hundreds of millions around the globe for a century.
