It has happened to permanent residents who have green cards, though. It's absolutely not the same as being a citizen, but it should be noted that most green card holders are eligible to become US citizens.

VC funding is on a whole other level, though

> ... I then completely lost confidence in my ability to credibly run those calculations because I don't understand nearly enough about how CO2eq is calculated in different industries.

There is a lot of heated debate on the "correct" methodology for calculating CO2e in different industries. I calculate it in my job and I have to update the formulas and variables very often. Don't beat yourself over it. :)

I do block ads on YouTube, but I also block ads everywhere else without exception. I think that ads suck and that everybody should refuse to consume them. Not everybody is bothered by them, though, and they are not "suckers" for thinking so.

If YouTube were to offer me a service that I think is worth paying for, then I would. I think that YouTube Premium is not a product worth paying for based on what they're offering, and also I noticed that I watch YouTube videos less and less over the years. Nebula and Curiosity Stream convinced me to pay for their services, so perhaps YouTube just has to step up?

I don't really care where the videos are hosted, though. I watch on YouTube because that's where my beloved creators choose host their vids. If they started to host their videos on Vimeo or even archive.org, I would watch them there since I only care about the content.

> Hosting videos isn’t cheap, who should cover that cost?

The ad revenue is in the billions and is steadily increasing each year. I would bet that the costs are more than covered.

Are you sure that they are blocking SSH packets, or just port 22? If they are blocking the port, it's good practice to use something other than 22 anyways

> the only batteries available are random chinese junk

Unlike the awesome iPhone batteries that are made in Cupertino, right?

> If the content is valuable to you, you should be willing to pay for it

But I do, by supporting those creators through Patreon. Paying for YouTube Premium sounds like a bad deal since I'm not directly supporting the creators for which I go to YouTube in the first place.

Resellers maintain such information. There are many websites where you can specify the weight, height and hundreds of other parameters for your product search.

> Products need marketing. You don't just magically know what to buy.

A-Are you Don Draper by any chance?

Seriously, though: you don't need marketing. What you need while searching for what product to buy is a technical specification of the product by which you can determine if the product suits your needs.

> Is this manipulation or information?

Looks like manipulation. Information would be a sheet of parameters relevant to the product. The cheapest and most expensive strollers can be claimed to be "Compact" and "Ergonomic".

> literally all the OECD countries will offer a better life than the US

Many already do, at least in terms of the World Happiness Report [1].

Roosevelt was president when the US declared war on Nazi Germany, not Woodrow Wilson. It was a very popular move at the time, with over 90% of people agreeing to it according to polls, and 100% of the House and the Senate agreeing to it, too.

Friendlyjordies on YouTube made a great video [1] about ground.news about a month ago, worth a watch. I share the view that the left / right classification for news is useless. There always was some kind of bias / agenda to news, even before the days of the internet and social media. Also, the Democrat party in the US is for the most part, a center or center right party, so the classification of left / right for US news is kind of pointless.

I've completed a Master's course in CS and some students came from other technical studies, like applied mathematics and physics. Of course after only 2 years they did not learn any particular programming language well, but they learned other skills related to CS, performed experiments in very narrow fields.

The reason why I wanted to study CS in university was because I was curious, not because of possible job offers you get if you have a degree. When I applied I thought that this was the primary motivator for others as well. Turns out I was very wrong, although I did meet a few students who were studying mainly for their curiosity.

Trump has repeatedly suggested that he will use the military on the "enemy from within". Protests could end up looking like what we see in Belarus and Russia - masked "police" shows up and they beat them up and / or take them away.

I love it that Computerphile gave him the platform to dive much deeper into these subjects. Also, awk as a favorite language is a interesting choice, but I kind of get it!

> People forget iPhone could lose out to Android like how Mac lost to Windows.

Global smartphone sales are 74% Android and 22% iOS. They were only "winning" in this regard until 2012

"Best tech" in a general sense doesn't really mean anything, since it depends on use-cases

What do you mean by sunny war? All wars seem cloudy at best to me

Will this work for people using Claude through other services like OpenRouter?

> American taxpayers do not want to waste money on a conflict that is going nowhere, that is not America’s concern.

By wasting money you mean selling weapons and giving away old military equipment that it more expensive to destroy than to ship away?

Also, the conflict is in America's concern since the United States has pledged to guarantee Ukraine's security in the Budapest Memorandum of 1994. A pledge is a pledge, no matter if you like it or not.

In my country in the EU we don't have Amazon, but there does not seem to be a need for it since almost every small and big goods seller has a e-store. The rest we buy from foreign stores with a slight increase in delivery cost.

> The reasons for the war are deep.

Are they, really? As a person who grew up in a country that was invaded by Russia multiple times in the span of a few hundred years, it's evident that the main reason is a imperialistic view.

Sure, here is your answer: ...

... By the way, have you heard about Squarespace?

It's ironic that a "conservative" President does not honor the long-standing traditions and manners that used to be common for past Presidents

Every nuclear power has hinted at using them if necessary, that's why they're developed

How about 3 + a fortified DMZ like in Korea?

As somebody who wears a mask almost all day long I am glad that fingerprint unlocking is an option
