Cheney successfully stole an election. My man just doesn't like losers.

Have you tried reducing the amount of water you cook the rice in?

I personally feel that leftists would be better served trying to take seats on the common council. There's even less turnout there, and they technically have more power than the mayor as a body. When it looked like she had a chance to become mayor the common council drafted legislation to strip the office of the mayor of most of its powers. Running for mayor should happen after leftists get enough seats on the council to block any such legislation from getting passed.

Hey now, the Mayor's role is to rubber stamp tax breaks and sweetheart deals for incredibly rich, and racist real estate moguls. Sure, an entire neighborhood of the city smells like a sewer each time it rains, the roads are completely falling apart, there's an under-reported lead crisis due ancient infrastructure and slumlords, and the water authority was privatized and handed over to the french. All in a city where 20% of households cannot afford a car, and live in an incredibly car dependent area with unreliable bus service. But all these real-estate developers are happy so it's all good right?

Damn, I'm sorry man. I graduated at the height of the great recession and after scrambling for a job for a year before caving and taking something maintaining some dumb custom PHP inventory system for a small business. Only got my previous job (doing driver development) through sheer dumb luck. It was as close to my dream job of OS development as was probably possible, and the company made a real physical thing instead of another pointless app. But the place really did a number on me, and I feel less capable then I used to be.

The job market is also worse in some ways now than it was then, which is crazy. There may be more jobs available now than then, but the ones now seem shittier and the job search process is somehow even more degrading. Im considering joining the local brick layers union. Wish you the best of luck, and I wish good tech jobs didn't fall into either the dumbest product you've ever heard of, or working for some of the most evil forces on the planet.

This is upstate erasure. Suburban/rural upstate is full of psychos.

Uggh. I occasionally browse r/haskell since I like using the language for personal projects. Someone posted a job offering from Andruil and literally everyone in that shitty subreddit except 1 guy was gushing over the idea of working for them. Tech workers are fucking hopeless. On a totally unrelated note I quit my developer job recently due to burnout and am doing some soul searching because I don't think I can work in the field anymore without losing my sanity.

I like how the title to that post is just describing property taxes that every home owner already pays.

I think we’re in an age when nuclear deterrent is actually less effective because the West is very unlikely to use anything like a nuclear bomb, whereas our adversaries might

Anyway, good luck on that three front war

I got really into ants for a while, and sometimes I think that capitalism is our species' equivalent.

Which isn't what happened at all. Intel is going down the tubes and can't afford new infrastructure projects in such an unstable country. BDS did next to nothing here. Most of the blame can be put on Intel itself for being such a poorly run company, the instability of the war + Hezbollah and Ansar Allah wrecking Israel's economy. BDS is important and good for putting pressure on Israel, but it has not reached such a critical mass to start affecting non-consumer facing products. Most of want Intel sells is to other businesses who, I guarantee you are not factoring BDS into their calculations at all. They are factoring in the fact that Intel chips suck.
