Take a load for free 😎

This is a bit tangential, but a part of me is pleased that leftists and Marxists are adopting some of these basic chartalist monetary principles. When I dove into the MMT world for a brief period a few years ago, my basic takeaway was that their analysis of the state and money isn’t far off the mark, but they have a severely underdeveloped class consciousness. The end call to action - at least from the liberal voices within that ideological space - was always “well if we educate people about all this, then they can go harder, and we can finally have funding for healthcare and education”

Only because they sell bonds to make up the deficit. They don’t have to do that.

Hmmm, I’d like to see Craig’s list.

KDE Plasma on Arch on integrated Intel graphics here. I’ve been on it for a few years and I love it.

I find I have that issue in Windows 10. There’s not much consistency between applications in terms of which monitor or even desktop they’ll launch in when I open them.

You know exactly what that picture is, and it’s how I prefer to hang my toilet paper rolls because I’m in the small minority that finds it more aesthetically pleasing.

The only positive thing I got out of that place was some great albums from /mu/, but even there the toxicity was so incredibly rampant. I wouldn’t shed a tear to see the whole site nuked.

I don’t tell people. They infer both almost immediately from my physical stature and vocabulary.

I sometimes feel like the last person that managed to land a decent tech job without an undergraduate degree, but a good part of that was being able to play a normal, likeable person in the interview.

I think what you say might be true for any field that’s new enough. There’s high demand for labourers, very little skill around, and a low barrier for an autodidact to pick up the basics and outshine the competition.

Still a hot take probably but everyone I know hates JS.

I think this is accurate on a larger scale, but I’ll often do things like breaking up a large chain of methods with an interim variable just for readability. A few lines of simple math is better than one line of bit shifting wizardry that does the same thing but doesn’t show the semantic meaning of the operation.
