Fewer businesses. But that aside when people say regulations are costly without providing specifics typically they are upset they can't rip off the public, pollute the environment or perform other acts to the disadvantage of the population.

Very nuanced take, thank you for your insight.

Em-dashes in this article.

What is described here is basically just CIDR plus NAT which is...what we actually have.

At the time IPv6 was being defined (I was there) CIDR was just being introduced and NAT hadn't been deployed widely. If someone had raised their hand and said "I think if we force people to use NAT and push down on the route table size with CIDR, I think it'll be ok" (nobody said that iirc), they would have been rejected because sentiment was heavily against creating a two-level network. After all having uniform addressing was pretty much the reason internet protocols took off.


What beloved right wing institutions can be destroyed once democracy is restored?

A NASCAR track somewhere? A ban on country music? Wearing the red cap? Wife-beater shirts? Diesel pickups with emission controls removed?


You're mistaking the stereotype for the people in charge of the policy. If you want to destroy GOP institutions, start with country clubs and sinking private yachts. nationalize car dealerships. break up the megacorps.

>nationalize car dealerships

Or just allow direct sales.


And breakup Paramount+ CBS CNN Showtime HBO Warner Bros TNT TBS MTV DC Studios Nickelodeon Comedy Central Cartoon Network. And the other media empires!

The problem with that is those networks are pretty tiny if you don't count sports. Mr. Beast has more viewers the CNN's top show.

But the people of the stereotype helped those idiots to come to power.

Wouldn’t that validate the rhetoric that Democrats have the same methods as the Nazis: Threats, destruction, (racial preference), and social censorship?


You actually don't need to engage with the arguments of people arguing in bad faith.

Sure, but its against the "actual" bad guys this time.

Everyone thinks they're the good guys, even the bad guys.

Yeah, or, hear me out, we could stop with the stupid culture war crap and get back to running the country like adults?

It takes two to tango. Every progressive I know would be thrilled to stop with the culture war BS. However, MAGA refuses to just let people live their lives the way they want.

> Every progressive I know would be thrilled to stop with the culture war BS. However, MAGA refuses to just let people live their lives the way they want.

Are you using some nonstandard definition of "progressive" and "MAGA", or do you genuinely have the belief that the left wing is closer to the center majority of this country in "culture war" matters than the right wing?


Spoken like a true culture warrior! It's not a matter of who is "closer", rather it's a matter of which party leans into politicizing the policing of cultural choices in the first place.

Techo bros control everything now and they want us in our silos.

I read this as techno bros. Frankly that wouldn't be a bad life.

bah meant 'tech.' I’ll leave it unedited and accept my shame.

They’re all so upset that they have nothing worth saving and they take it out on everybody else with wanton destruction.

Crypto should be first on the chopping block. Then they should designate A16Z a national security risk just like they did with Anthropic.

SpaceX should be nationalized to restore the capabilities that were lost when DOGE and Musk gutted our national science agencies.

NASCAR is awesome. Don't diss NASCAR.

PACs.

Casual racism.

Democracy won’t be restored until we increase the number of political parties in this country and fix how our officials are elected. I wish I had the answer on how to solve this, but alas… I’ll defer to people who are smarter than me.

No hope even with that, as long as Citizens United is still alive and kicking.

> Democracy won’t be restored until we increase the number of political parties in this country

Parliamentary systems with many parties run into a different kind of dysfunction. Belgium didn't have a government for like two years relatively recently because they couldn't form a big enough coalition. In a democracy, there is no magic bullet that does not involve the quality of the demos.

What is your idea of democracy that needs to be restored in this country?


You're selling yourself short here given that your response is the most intelligent of its 8 siblings.


One potential reason for sessions being abandoned within 60 seconds in my experience is realizing you forgot to set something in the environment: github token missing, tool set for the language not on the path, etc. Claude doesn't provide elegant ways to fix those things in-session so I'll just exit, fix up and start Claude again. It does have the option to continue a previous session but there's typically no point in these "oops I forgot that" cases.

This was always the case in the before times with humans. AI just pulls back the curtain on the delusion that code can and is being meaningful reviewed.

"Can't fix stupid"

4. Don't work in the corporate equivalent of The Hunger Games.

At least in the past the idea is you do the dance , vest and leave.

I missed my FAANG chance during the good years. No retirement for me!


Bingo. Hopefully there are some business opportunities for us in that truth.

Just tell it that the tests can't be changed. Honestly I'd be surprised if it tried to anyway. I've never had it do that through many projects where tests were provided to drive development.
