Welcome to the West? It's been like this for a while now here.

The git CLI might suck, but SM just doesn't. Looking forward to jj GUIs taking off. Or even better: jj getting integrated into SM.

We hit some new lows over the week end with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. In between the finger pointer, there was uh grieving. On Friday the White House flew the flags at half staff which got some criticism but on a human level you can... see how hard the president is taking this.
Reporter
My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. May I ask, sir, personally, how are you holding up over the last day and a half, sir?
Trump
I think very good, and by the way right there you see all the trucks. They've just started construction of the new ball room for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get, as you know, for a 150 years, and it's going to be a beauty.
Kimmel
Yes. He's at the fourth stage of grief. Construction.
Demolition. Construction. This is not how an adult grieves the murder of somebody called their friend. This is how a four year old mourns a gold fish, ok? And it didn't just happen once.
Ultimately this is a hiring problem though. They should have tested more thoroughly for prompt obedience.
Ultimately there's going to be a lot of repetition. Many of these tasks are going to be the same. I'm wondering if there's a variant of this system that involves reusable kanban tickets.
Oh, ok. Too bad, I guess.

Seems cool. Sponsors some really interesting projects.
Also interesting to learn about FUTO. Seems like a cool thing to watch out for. https://futo.org/about/what-is-futo/
We can do the same with billionaires and their assets.
The tax evasion industry (for corporations as well as for individuals) needs way more regulation and penalties. These firms inflict a net negative cost on society.
Looking at averages is completely irrelevant when talking about inequality.
Here's a video from 12 years ago: Wealth Inequality in America https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPKKQnijnsM
Citation needed. This seems highly implausible.
Wealth is mostly inherited, and amassed over generations. The wealthy become more wealthy because they already have wealth. If you take that away, all those wealth management skills matter a lot less.
Here's how I would sum up his main argument: Ordinary people have less money and can no longer afford to buy property. Governments have less money, infrastructure everywhere is eroding. So where does all the wealth go? The only possible answer is to the very rich, who are doing better than ever, while everyone else is down financially.
To be clear, this is not about the entrepreneur who made a couple million bucks and has three houses. It's about the top 0.1 % who are sucking everyone else dry, permanently: The poor, the middle class, and the government.
We need to do something to reverse this trend. And soon.
In Sublime Text there was an addon that did that. I assume something similar exists for VS Code.
To align the items manually I would Tab (or Space) as much as necessary so that each item has enough space for the alignment. I would then use the mouse to create multiple cursors in the same column. In VS Code it's drag MMB, in Sublime it's Ctrl+LMB or sth. Then Ctrl+Shift+Arrow_Right, Ctrl+Shift+Arrow_Left to select the spaces up until the (misaligned) beginnings of the words, then hit Delete.
Select the $, Ctrl+D to select the other ones, then select and copy the identifiers. Took me 28 seconds in total.
Not Just Bikes has a video on why that might not be the best idea.
"Immediately after making that statement, Royal realized that it was true."
Heh.
