Bush's 2000 campaign is largely responsible for mobilizing the evangelical Christian voting block in the US. So in no small way, we have him to thank for the rise of Christian nationalism that we've seen over the past 20 years.

I won't judge him as a person, but there's no rehabilitation possible for his presidency.

Big +1 for K-9. I considered switching to an iPhone after breaking my previous Android phone, but two apps, K-9 and an actual real Firefox, kept me on Android. It's a great mail reader, and I struggle to imagine having to use something else.

But the term is his, and it's what he's using to rationalize his plans. He's not declaring that he/Trump are declaring a post-constitutional doctrine, but that we're already living in one and thus he's justified in his radical reinterpretations of it.

Just ask ChatGPT; it's better than humans at proving its humanity with these stupid things.

VMs provide a meaningful security boundary between applications. Containers (docker, etc) do not.

There's actually a decent sized income gap between the two cities, which no doubt contributes. Rents looks very comparable.

Median income for the city of Boston: $89,212 (source)

Median income for the city of Seattle: $116,068 (source)

Per the same source,

  • median gross rent is very comparable between the two cities ($1,945 vs. $1,981 in Seattle vs Boston, respectively)
  • Seattle has a higher percentage of its population with college degrees, which likely explains some of the higher income
  • Seattle also has a higher percentage of owner-occupied homes, which probably influences this, though I'm not exactly sure how.

Mac Jones doesn't even make the list. Poor guy.

That's what we said about Roe as well. They will always find some new way to manufacture outrage even after they get their way.

Interesting! From his post,

Mikhail advised me to use balanced trees instead of extensible hashing

And

I never told Mikhail that Oracle had tried implementing a filesystem using balanced trees, and its performance was terrible leading to most insiders in the industry concluding that balanced trees performed poorly for filesystem File size patterns.

Of course, that filesystem exists today as btrfs.

Maybe you should poll people outside your social circles?

Turnout matters, though. Biden in 2020 won more votes than any presidential candidate in history, but the second place winner was Trump in 2020. There will be similar loyalty to Trump on the right in 2024, and if Biden can't match that, he loses. So I'm not afraid of the youth vote either, but I am afraid of the lack of it.

How much does their paid staff cost?

State government doesn't operate on a volunteer basis.
