I think about 18 billion of that was me

They’re not wrong that democracy’s under threat. But maybe the threat’s from the guy who has literally said he’s going to murder political opponents - y’know, the guy they support.

Expected work hours seem to be increasing everywhere over the last twenty years or so. It’s gotten pretty nuts.

Remember the time - two days ago - when Trump said he was going to ban all electric cars? I wonder how Elon feels about that.

One that results in a crime, apparently.

For Australians: they mean American opossums, not Australian possums. Our cute little marsupial friends have appropriately wrinkly brains, thank goodness.

…is the second largest city in Australia. But also has an inflated sense of self-importance.

“They banned mercenaries so we’ll just call them something different”

In my country that means you wouldn’t respect (for instance) ordinary people who’ve paid off a house. 1 million isn’t as much money as it used to be.

You mean aside from the ex-president?

Close… That moon’s called LV426

There have been UBI trials before and they found that it didn’t lead to price increases to any great degree.

They definitely did challenge it

And politicians drink alcohol so they’re not exactly lining up to ban it.

Nice. I guess Antarctica’s next.

Yes, that’s the difference between “safer” and “actually safe”.

I’m surprised that the supreme court would even hear this request. He’s just a normal citizen now and the brief sounds a lot like someone requesting retrospective absolution for their crimes.

It’s also a fallacy that rust code is memory safe. I audited a couple of large rust projects and found that they both had tens of unsafe constructs. I presume other projects are similar.

You can’t use “unsafe” and then claim that your program’s memory safe. It may be “somewhat safe-ish” but claiming that your code is safe because you carefully reviewed your unsafe sections leaves you on the same shaky ground as c++, where they also claim that they carefully review their code.
