Nonsense. Absolute horse shit. This is a tax cut paid for in borrowing that will be paid later with...taxes.

> The debt is already so large that this barely affects the momentum. The idea that a 66% increase in the deficit "barely affects the momentum" is absurd reflects either your ignor…

He's coming off a crack-binge. Pay no mind.

Valuable for who? Open source (at the margin) is more valuable for everyone--except the inventor, for whom it is not as valuable. So the inventor keeps the design proprietary, and …

It's the simplest interpretation of the data we have.

The Bell Theorem shows that any local hidden variable theory wouldn't match the experimental data we already have. There's other options for getting around the weirdness of the Cop…

And full of people applying for them.

The two kinds of functions are also more clearly declared.

Whichever team published VS Code seems to be not evil, at least.

There's also the fact that Walmart achieves low prices by strong arming suppliers into giving them lower quality goods masquerading as the "same" model. Buying anything that you ex…

This, a thousand times this.

All zero of them.

This eruption has been going on for 35 years, and there hasn't been a mass evacuation yet. I wouldn't worry about it.
