i want s’morebrod

literally the same concept as a comment i just wrote about russian hypersonic missiles breaking apart mid flight because they didn’t put limits on how fast they can change course when going mach 5 aha

idk i fuck up and release buggy code at least 10% as much as management makes dumb ass decisions

but any software engineer knows sensors and inputs aren’t infallible … and neither is your code! you apply limits to account for anomalies, which should just be an expectation

i think it’s certainly possible that it could start down that path, and it’ll become blatantly obvious that trickle down economics, “socialism is evil”, anti-intellectual crap that the red states bow at the alter of is a huge reason for their suffering and they’ll want to join those coalitions, but those coalitions will have years if not decades of policy on their side to make sure they aren’t overrun with the same ideas

could the process then just start over again? perhaps… it could just be a property of the system

but also… they’re arguing for small government. maybe y’all should start pushing in the same direction: make the federal government smaller, keep your blue state tax money, stop giving them as much… it’s what they want after all

and then use that money to form blue state coalitions: form a new, voluntary CDC, FDA, etc between aligned states that are far more robust than what you’ve been able to achieve with republican bad faith tampering

kinda like the EU model, but less central

(and if you didn’t see my instance, i’m aussie so i don’t really get a say, and nobody should let me influence anything - im not a citizen and i don’t live there or have to deal with as many consequences - unless you legitimately agree)

that’s not even the most incompetent part imo

the fact that the missile tries to change direction too quickly and just breaks itself apart from the aerodynamic pressure is crazy… it’s literally hobby robotics 101 to put limits on acceleration etc

now that’s what i call molecular biology!

it also helped to make sure US government tech services were accessible

in complex systems design, you never blame human error. humans are fallible, and if the system doesn’t account for human error then it’s just a matter of time until failure occurs. look for a way to make the system tolerate or eliminate human error

it’s all internal if you draw your own magical borders!

geopolitics is consistently hypocritical… especially when it comes to the US… we absolutely can, and should be telling everyone to stop being imperialist but in lieu of that, we can just tell russia to cut the shit

or the argument holds water and also the US has consistently been in the wrong for the same reasons

i closed reader view and scrolled just to see and wow the POPUPS and 50% of the page length being ads

WHAT

who uses the internet like this and finds it acceptable?!

buys you a little extra time to move to linux

the concept of someone working a 40hr week and not having money relax let alone pay their rent is literally foreign to me

it’s wild that people can work 80hr weeks and still barely scrape by

australia kinda does it like that… our minimum wage is tied to CPI (which covers much more than just food: also entertainment, rent, transport), and afaik was originally based on living standards

a wage that is fair and reasonable… sufficient to meet the normal needs of an average employee, regarded as a human being living in a civilised community.

in fact, australia invented the concept of a “living wage” in 1907

so it should be exactly that today: enough for an average person to live a decent existence (including entertainment, food, housing, etc)

You think this change is gonna happen without a fight?

so fight! but then also vote the way you have to until the system changes

Democrats are not trying to shift left

obviously, but when it comes to the ratchet effect better the option that doesn’t sprint head long to fascism

as a result your party

it ain’t my party mate; i’m australian… american choices effect the entire world

Your method of governing is an abject failure.

and what would that be? because i’m strongly against the system the US uses to elect it’s government and its general method of governing

however

you can’t fight reality: game theory and statistics exist, and the system to elect representatives in america is what it is and UNTIL THAT CHANGES, those are just facts

yup they show price per sheet by law

ditto! i’d probably do it in my head for a lot of things still because metric is easy, but it saves me so much time and i’m sure i’m an outlier
