Yes, to find missing backports. The hand rolled aspects are still there and haven't been replaced by slop.

Where "winning" means surviving in relative comfort until global society disintegrates into a constant state of famine and war and you run out of local resources.

> Give me...

Who's going to give you any of this in time?

It's unusual when we're flagging posts about DOGE exfiltrating public data as off topic because it isn't purely tech related.

"it may lead to" is a future tense possibility.

What are you basing that on? Even the most optimistic predictions are saying the best we can hope for this century is to slow down the damage being done.

A harp can have more than 6 notes ringing out at a time. It's also a different instrument and if you've trained to play harp then a guitar is useless for you.

It feels like you're being sarcastic but "AI data centers are what, half a percent of the world electricity consumption" -- 0.5% of the global total is huge!

Are we measurably slowing down the warming effect?

The point is it's too far gone. You can't teach much resilience for continent-wide crop failure.

> The reality is for most of European history, people inherited in their 40s and got their "big, family apartment" that way.

Do you have a source for this? It seems mathematically unlikely due to family sizes.

They've actually been there for less than two centuries, just to be pedantic.

100% They're super useful and I often use them to generate bash scripts of, but that's exactly how I know how important it is to check their work!

I'm a shell scripter at heart, the arcane stuff has always been a delight for me, so I've driven them to do some pretty complex stuff where previously I would have "copped out" and used python. I'd say the general adage of them being at the level of a very talent junior holds true.

Define "really good?" I don't think I've ever had them produce a script that I didn't need to correct in some way. They can write it, that's true, but we still need to be able to read it.

The discussion points out, though, that many places in the US do have those speeds, while Switzerland also has places with much slower speeds.

It's all over the README as well:

>Inline overlay — Opens below the cursor, not as a fullscreen app. Dismiss without trace. Pure ANSI escape codes, no libraries.

> Fuzzy search + typo tolerance — Damerau-Levenshtein distance catches typos.

Just that tone-deaf voice that can't tell what's useful information and what isn't but presents it all the same anyway.

Honestly what disappoints me about seeing this stuff come through unedited is that surely the human behind it had more time for checking over what was being communicated because they didn't spend the time writing the code etc? But they didn't, so what did they do? And now as a reader I'm expected to sift through and figure it all out?

I feel like this ship is sailing and I'm just turning into an old man shaking my fist at clouds but it's really sad to me that communication is become so fuzzy. Just throw whatever words up there and hope for the best.

Alternatively the male porn abuse epidemic.

Ok.

Maybe the village hasn't recovered but what about the descendants of the miners who now work service jobs in London?

> You can mock the grammar...

I mocked nothing. I accused you of using unfair and unfriendly rhetoric.

> AFAIK when the Soviet Union accused some Western power

So you're putting the words of "some Western power" that "as far as you know" once used a bizarre definition of colonialism in my mouth?

> in the sense that oftentimes all the money, support and political representation goes overwhelmingly to some select places

Yes, totally different thing. People use metaphors and reappropriate words all the time. Irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

Don't forget the "label:" search in Spotify

I'm not sure what you mean by "when boats" exactly it why you used that phrasing, but it seems like an attempt at pre-emptively mocking a strawman, framing it as childish. That's not very nice rhetoric, is it?

These terms are well defined and it would serve you well to simply consult a dictionary.

But in short colonialism implies the use of colonies (surprise surprise) meaning the use of settlers to control or displace populations. There from comes the name

It also differs from other forms of expansionism in a few important ways.

- The power class structure is built on trade imbalances which move resources from the colonised land to the metropole without building up local economies.

- There's no absorption, the territories tend to remain separate and the colonised people can't become citizens or equals with those colonising them.

- And it's understood when speaking about things like the "colonial era" or "historical colonialism" that there was a deal of racial justification and stratification along racial lines.

You'll quickly be able to compare this list to whatever historical event you like.

> That requires buying into the very concept that "colonialism" is a specific sin different (and worse) from ye olde "I am stronger than you and will occupy your territory and take your wealth".

It does, yes, and completely reasonably so. That's why it has a different name.

> .. as if somebody decided that theft of, say, a smartphone, was a separate and much graver offence...

Yes, it is like that indeed and I'm sure you'll recognise the difference between intellectual property theft and the theft of a car, or the difference between stealing food from a supermarket and stealing food from a beggar.

> I don't really buy it

> It only makes sense to me if there is an underlying ideology

Ok? Maybe read some more about it. Right now it feels like you're the one pushing an ideology without really making an argument for it.

> It may also come handy for distraction from domestic governance failures

Yes, it might. Governments have a host of ways to distract the public from issues. That doesn't change the reality of the history of, or contemporary effects of, colonialism.

> ... similar to the way the contemporary Russian propaganda ...

Boogeyman argument and an emotional appeal.

Those cases didn't involve colonisation. Though Virginia certainly did if you go back a little further.

> "Colonialism" is a weird Western guilt fetish that some others successfully milk

Colonialism is the historical basis of almost all of global society today. It's not at all weird to be concerned with it when it still drives so much of the relative power dynamics between states and between people(s) today.

The example you're giving of Czechia and Prussia simply isn't an example of a colonial action.

At this point I'll be happy if there are future generations with the capacity to look back and understand what happened.

> Both Europe and US's emissions are significantly (18%-30%) below their peak

Because they outsource their dirty work. To get a true picture of US/EU emissions you need to factor in the factories in Asia that are producing their consumer goods, as well as the global transport network that supports this.

And so will regulatory solutions so long as we have different states competing for resources.

Maybe we don't build them at all and plant some trees instead. Ireland could definitely benefit more from that.

Honestly kind of yes. The world is burning, and we can't keep growing like this. Tech optimism made some sense 20 years ago but a lot of us who have been here in that time are feeling pretty jaded.

So "things."
