New York would be a state affected by the power freeze?

The presidents first visit to the joint session isn’t called the state of the union, but this visit was the equivalent.

He addressed a joint session of congress

AOC talks a big game, but I’m not personally convinced she follows through.

Case in point, this situation. There should have been more democrats doing the same thing.

Why didn’t anyone do anything? They talk a big game on social media, but that’s it.

I’m thinking they are either controlled opposition or too enthralled to corporate donations to do anything.

Dixie flags are usually a dog whistle for racism

Secession is a nice idea, but merging into Canada is a nonstarter.

Canada is 40 million people, New York is 20 million. That kind of influx would be insane to manage. And that’s just one state…

I can only think of east/west Germany as the closes parallel and they are still merging the halves.

I’m honestly surprised the MIC would let things deteriorate this much for the US defense industry. The next 15 years will be really bad for them, especially if European based companies can supplant their contracts other globally

Purely from a business perspective, the MIC must like the war in Ukraine and I would have thought their united lobbying efforts would be enough to save Ukraine from 0 US aid…

Ink dries out, probably better to fill it part way and refill more often.

I don’t know this for a fact, but I would assume dried ink could clog up your cartridge or the printer

It should be separated.

AI generated code is usually boilerplate and tools like copilot, cursor, etc are huge productivity uplifts.

Like them or not, they are here to stay. A lot of code written by developers isn’t unique or novel.

AI generated code is useful.

I strongly dislike AI slop and I hate ai being shoved everywhere, but I’m also a realist. I use AI code everyday in my job because my job doesn’t pay me to have principaled stands, they pay me to deliver features.

They already worked there.

Musk took over the US digital Service and they were preexisting employees

Maybe if you stopped putting the license in your comments, people would discuss the issues with you?

It’s super cringey and does nothing.

Incumbents are hard to unseat.

Especially someone like pelosi who has been around so long.

You agreed to the ToS given by the library.

Hence why you have to get a library card to check out a book.

That license does nothing.

Your comments aren’t licensed because you put something in them. It’s stopping nothing. Licensing is an agreement, and requires parties to consent. You don’t just magically force licenses onto people.

If this was real I could license my comments where if you read them, you owe me 10k.

This is the digital equivalent of sovereign citizens.

They might report you to a credit agency or keep your deposit

Yeah, a lot of the cobol jobs aren’t high paying.

There are definitely some, but those are usually emergency hires and not long term…

Coups aren’t just for unelected people. A self-coup is when you use your power to KEEP control.

Nah, those are mass produced. I’ve seen them in touristy shops

Publish v3, then add a translation layer for v2 to v3

When I was an intern, a lot of the interns were terrible and didn’t even bother to show up. The big bank just let them finish their internship cause it was more work to fire them…
