Don't criticize Isreal. Or Trump. Or Putin. Or the rich. Or crypto. Or scammers and grifters. Remember when the GOP said they were for free speech and deficit reduction?

In Trump's first term (a) he was younger and now he has senile dementia, and (b) there were adults in the room to say no to the Toddler in Chief. Now its all TV hosts, alt-facts, and facists around him...

Given that the modern GOP is anti-science, anti-diversity, anti-immigrant, and Christian-centric all while insting that truth and facts are misinformation, what makes you think anything about the "right" belongs in an insitution founded on learning and open-inquiry?

> And if itâ(TM)s run efficiently, then it should be of little concern with regards to DOGE. The word "efficiency" is doing a lot of work in that sentance. The DOGE effort is based entirely on idealogy, not real data. Things are deemed "inefficient" if: - they are in any way a constraint on DT's whims: DOJ, Joint Chiefs, etc. - they are in any way a constraint on oliarchs: EPA, SEC, IRS. - if they involve any Federal workers (DT cliams basically all 2 million of them don't even show up for work or do anything of value). - if they help anyone who isn't a white man: DOE, HHS, etc. It's all driven by motivated reasoning, not data. That's how you end up with cold fusion, the Inqusition, and the Holocaust...

I'd you try to scam rich people, you go to jail. You scam a whole country, you get elected President.

It would require his billionaire owners to complain. Nobody in the GOP cares about the rest of us "parasites".

Musk and his children-coders are idiots. There are zero people 150 years old getting checks. They don't fucking understand how COBOL records and timestamps work. Like everything else Trump and Elon says, it's gaslighting bullshit combined with wilful ignorance. Enjoy the face-eating when it comes for you...

Actually all the billionaires live exclusively on loans to avoid having any income or capital gains to tax. The deficiet is driven by irresponsible tax rate cuts and rising costs from inflation. Bush Jr threw away a surplus instead of paying down debt.

Users didn't have to be admin back in XP, but in practice everyone used it as such and most apps only worked properly when running with Admin rights. A huge part of Windows Vista was about moving away from running most apps as admin, which paved the way for a reasonably smooth Windows 7 app and driver experience.

Nothing because he directly benefits from that labor in his hotels and other business scams. He's lying to you. You know he is lying and knew he was a liar the day you voted for him, but you pretend otherwise.

So government agency makes a recommendation to consider memory-safe languages for security is equivalent to banning abortion, IVF, recreational sex, and contraception? I'd be fine if the "Religious Right" had simply stuck to "urging"...

That's not how this works. That's now any of this works. Generally speaking, college education programs are not a zero-sum game although it does get more like that as you get into the PhD research level where we tend to underfund basic research. Nobody is "taking it away" from anyone... they are just making sure women and girls perceive CS as a real option for them. That's not "sexism". It's "representation". I've worked in the software industry for decades. It's ALWAYS been a "sausage-fest" in every setting where you find coders: industry, academia, events, etc. Males are not hurting for access to CS programs, encouragement to take CS prerequisites, or to invest personal time in learning technology. Organizations that demand and protect the status quo are not called "advocacy groups" for good reason. Let me know when the rate of males going into CS drops precipitously to less than 1 in 5 and I'm happy to donate to your "Men's Rights Group".

The point is there doesn't need to be one at this point given that 82% of all CS graduates are ALREADY men and boys.

Wouldn't the advocacy group for boys & men being programmers be called "the entire IT and software industry plus all of academia"? I get that this was mostly a troll, but why the big chip on your shoulder about a website?

After reading the post, it's clear that Richard did a great job getting a rare bug down to a single commit. Hugely helpful. Still, the actual BUG here isn't clear so the fix isn't obvious.
