    A concentration camp for people of a certain race. Blocked by judiciary but proceeded anyway. Nope need more evidence. It is not prison if there is no due process.

    Probably April or May 2025. I'm bullish still. But then I'm not all US stocks anyway.

    Cheap stocks people. Got my eye on some that below a certain price it would be a no brainer to buy. Global trade is rerouting around the bottleneck. Didn't think there would be an …

    We are not at the stage where AI can replace graduates. No where near. I worked with an intern recently and it was a pleasure. The quality was excellent. An AI couldn't do what the…

    A side project is creative while work is reductive (not necessarily a bad thing!) Side project is graffiti art on your shed wall, day job is 3 coats gloss white on the ceilings. Th…

    I lost the thread a bit. Are we talking about Doge? Yes that is a abysmal. No defence for that. But in general people need to learn some stuff on the job. E.g. hire an 18 year old …

    Oh nice. A culture where asking questions is punished. If this was a problem don't fire people. Train them. Make sure everyone does required training. If they refuse then you may h…

    I'd forgive a few of those. Unicode is Unicode. The for loop capture behaviour makes sense to me. Missing semis should also be in your linter. Sparse arrays is the sort of feature …

    They'd get training presumably. I wasn't qualified for my current job. Luckily they have training! And people to help.

    I think with AI my productivity had increased 1% at most. If I measure time saved per week.

    This make no sense. Tariffs are paid by the supplier who is receiving money from the US customer. Are you saying if they pay the tariff in doge coins the tariff is zero doge coins?…

    Yeah I think this why "Book a call" level customers are really subsidising it. Say $10/m/u and you get 200 seats. You pay $2000/m but the bugs you hit are likely uniform so you loa…

    Which is like burning all the houses (including your own) so you can use your houses to buy other people's houses cheap. This only works if you have superior manufacturing infra. T…

    I don't think it is obvious to everyone that a 20 year old laptop had a better survival chance over the next year than a new one. Most people think old is more fragile. Sometimes i…
