I don’t drive a BMW, so yes.

I believe in meds and I believe in science. Especially the science of complex systems. I don’t believe in political philosophy branded as science. The reproducability metric of social sciences and political economy is so bad that the complete field should move into humanities and philosophy (which isn’t bad, but it isn’t science). Aspiring sciences.

I mean it isn’t a secret that huge amounts of resources has been poured into neoliberal think tanks since the 70s. It’s an ideology which justifies the rich getting richer. Such stuff always get at lot of funding. It’s inherent.

I don’t think I’m the one who’s in lack of critical thinking here Mr 420.

Tariffs will be super hard on american economy. There is no universe where current tariffs and migration policy wont mean stagflation from hell. But that’s a price that might be worth/necessary paying. However, if american blue collar are able to organize, there is a possibility that blue collar salaries will keep up with inflation and that implies economic power is transferred to the working clas (supply and demand will be on the side of blue collar at least). Transfer of economic (and political) power is very much needed if the US democracy shall survive (or return from the dead).

But it’s all a big gamble for sure. Chaos and feudalism/fascism is probably the most likely outcome. Everything is so complex that it’s impossible to know for sure. Hopefully evolution has empowered us with enough accurate intuitions.

Take them meds bro.

I believe the tarrifs are good. Though for other reasons than Trump. The current (previous) situation is super unstable and unsustainable. It basically require a global US monopoly of violence (which was the case for about 30 years). Trade imbalance implies war (as stated by Keynes).

However, the arguments of the Trump administration are completely false and uneducated.

We’ve all been drenched in neoliberal propaganda for about 50 years (disguised as science), so it’s not weird people are unable to think outside of the box on this matter.

Also, super valid question. Don’t get the down votes.

What languages and patterns will be considered woke?

For sure memory safety and dependent types. C++ will probably be shoved down our throats.

The author mixing causality and correlation. Voters did not ditch SPD (or CDU) because they adopted a more negative stance on immigration. Rather the opposite. The main reason was of course that Scholz is a weak leader AND that Scholz and SPD hasn’t been able to turn the sinking ship that is Germany (which would require that SPD drop their neoliberal/third way agenda). Same goes for CDU but they had the benefit of being part of the pre-election opposition.

Germany need to reform their economic policy so that the government can take huge loans and invest in defense, infrastructure and energy. Things will be tough but at least there’s one single obvious solution. If Germany (CDU + SPD) don’t, AfD will take over and Europe will experience something like the 1930s all over again.

Yeah, I bet demand has dropped significantly within the EU. Just as with Tesla. People who have changed their mind about Musk should donate their terminals to Ukraine. Don’t force Ukraine to support Musk by buying new ones.

I stopped using Nextcloud a couple of years ago after it corrupted my encrypted storage. I’m giving it a try again because of political emergency. But we sure need a long term replacement. Written in Rust or some other sane language.

True. Source seems legit. Thought it was click bait.

Probably wrong by an order of magnitude. But still good.

Maybe a more reasonable question: Is there anyone here self-hosting on non-shit hardware? 😅
