That doesn’t follow at all.

There’s a process for removing him if enough people in congress believed that it was an issue, but there’s no reason to do so at this point in the presidency. Even the Republicans aren’t likely to try that.
...should he? maybe you meant to make some argument that he should do that?
To be fair, this sounds awesome to be doing yourself.
Wow. Gotta respect that decision of him. And don't say he never had a choice. Must be such a thing to face where you at, and pull out. What a legend. It's a smart person who knows how to go out on a high note, or lest before things go terrible worse.

He's been in the game a long time, must not have been the way he wanted to go out (better than getting shot, I guess...but hey haha :)), but there's honor in that he did it this way. It must be super hard for him. But good on him for facing where he is, and choosing beyond himself! :)
It does however effect the global markets, probably visa access to U.S. schools and companies including YC, etc…
Ordinarily, yes. But she doesn't poll well with a lot of key demographics due to her tough on crime stance as a DA. Making her president would mean she'd be the presumptive nominee, and I think the party has more optimal choices lined up.

This election will come down to four battleground states. Those are the only states and battles that matter.

It was probably the right decision on Biden's part.

My main right now is who are they going to position in opposition to Trump? This is too little, too late. Four months until the Election... and I don't feel like the Democrat party has a strong candidacy showing at this point.
This is wild. It seems super late in the game but okay. I'm super interested to see what will become of his chips act etc. The push he has tried to do to remove dependencies on TSMC is very forward thinking. Hopefully the next candidate takes up the momentum.

I wouldn't be surprised if they would have been on board for most of the Biden era economic policies. I think it may have just been the possible industry repercussions from the coming 2025 tax plan that made A&H anxious, given that it could disincentivize the venture capital growth market.

> CrowdStrike should prioritize rigorous testing across all supported

They should not.

Testing costs money and they aren't selling their product to a company that needs or wants it on a competitive market. Their business model is based on shoving the product down the throat of enterprises due to compliance and therefore they have zero incentive to invest any money into quality.
The report itself is a little more down to earth:

"Based on current progress, CEF believes it is entirely feasible for China to significantly slow the expansion of its thermal energy infrastructure and halt the construction of new coal power plants before 2030."

Now you just have to hope their GDP remains stable and that the government actually can keep interest rates artificially low for the next 15 straight years.

I think one of the examples from the article did say there was a trench box on site sitting next to the trench, but it had not been installed. I would be very interested in the root cause analysis of why that didn't happen. I agree with you that "individual workers" aren't deciding whether to install trench boxes or not - it's definitely a multi person task, and therefore should under the direction of whomever is managing the operation. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the ultimate causes is something like one to several ton mini/small excavators are good at digging 8-10ft deep trenches, but nowhere near big enough to lift the appropriately sized trench boxes. (This obviously doesn't excuse it, rather just pointing out a possible terrible dynamic for a smaller operation).
That's the thing.

Ok, I still don't get it then. The Warsaw pact nations were not planning on using their nukes on other European nations with nuclear weapons, to avoid getting nuked themselves. This is documented in the (formerly) secret war plans that were released by the Czech republic.
They may be uninterested and unaware and yet very powerful in propagating their own hangups all over the place. For example through movie and TV production. For example through movie, TV and video distribution. For example through legal models and specific texts. For example through organizations active in the hangup propagation business (so, they are certainly not ALL uninterested). For example through credit card networks and banking. And it goes on and on. I nearly forgot to mention technology companies and (currently) their "app" markets.

Some countries like the UK seem to be ahead of the pack in the hangup department but they also don't have the global footprint / influence that the US have.
Yes, I'm not saying `unreachable!()` isn't a `panic!()`.

Oof. This guy has been the biggest positive surprise of the US presidents in my lifetime. Expectations were low, but he actually turned out to be a good president (from a European perspective). No new wars, no more talk about shifting defense focus to Asia, generally nothing unreasonable. Good support for Ukraine, no doubts about NATO - rather the opposite. Basically, the rich uncle on the other side of the pond has been a good one.

I presume that his attitudes and staff selection carried the day, and maybe could have done so for another term. But his mental capacity was clearly declining, and he is in fact expected to handle some things personally.

Weak post. Agree with others that this is just rage bait lacking substance.

Blaming the developers (or any specific individual/group for that matter) is a cop out, it’s easy and lazy and doesn’t get to the root of the problem, which is more often than not a lack of processes, tools, information and lack of time/desire from leadership to address “technical debt” (for lack of a better term), no matter how many times the devs bring that up.

When you blame an individual or a group you can close the case shut on the post mortem and not get to any substantive improvements, meaning this can and will happen again, just to somebody else.

That’s why blameless postmortem and a blameless culture is so important. This is a good article about that philosophy:

> My summary of blameless culture is: when there is an outage, incident, or escaped bug in your service, assume the individuals involved had the best of intentions, and either they did not have the correct information to make a better decision, or the tools allowed them to make a mistake.

Add to your comment, I believe that Kamala can access the campaign funds, which favors her.
It does follow. The reason is if the president is cognitively incapable of leading the country. There's a good argument that Biden isn't competent enough to drive a car or work at home Depot. He makes gaffes every time he speaks and is rude and demeaning to people around him according to reports. It's pretty likely that he is effectively not the president right now, that his trusted senior advisers are actually running the country.

I'm not saying all of this is certain or that Biden should be removed, but it is certainly plausible, if not likely.

I have been a witness in an OSHA investigation, and it is absolutely dispicable what companies will do/say in order to pass the blame onto an innocent employee (e.g. "he was always such a go-getter, and that day he voluntarily placed himself into harm's way").

Elsewhere in this discussion/thread, some speculate that "masculinity" is the main culprit (i.e. not company's fault); certainly ego factors in, but few employees ignore safety rules when companies properly penalize non-compliance.

"Safety third" still allows for working environments which don't kill/fire employees over time-saving stupidity.

| there’s no reason to do so at this point in the presidency

The man is still the Commander-in-Chief. Anyone of limited mental faculties (which clearly describes President Biden), irrespective of their politics, should not be in the chair if they are not of sound mind. Consequently, I believe the responsible act would be for President Biden to resign the Presidency and allow his Vice President to take the mantle.

| Even the Republicans aren’t likely to try that.

I actually don't think it's in the Republicans best interest to do so. Tactically, the Democrats would be wise to let Kamala Harris sit in the Oval Office and make her the nominee. It would legitimize her as both a nominee and a candidate. Given that isn't happening, the cynic in me believes that suggests the Democrats don't want her as their candidate.

Regardless, the political machinations are irrelevant. It is irresponsible for Joe Biden to continue as President given he is obviously unfit to continue as the nominee.

US politics is intimately connected to technology.

1. This election will play a big part in what regulation is imposed on AI. The Democrats are more in favor of ethical and privacy limits on AI. The Republicans see AI as a crucial technology for the US to maintain military superiority and want to see a pretty much anything goes approach to get there.

2. There are similar large differences in how the parties approach privacy in general.

3. One of the common areas of technology discussed on HN is EVs. One party wants to encourage adoption of EVs. The other wants to discourage that--their VP candidate says EVs are a scam wants to cancel EV tax credits and give a $7500 tax credit for purchasing ICE vehicles.

4. They are also very far apart on areas of business law that massively affect technology companies, such as antitrust.
