That’s a good point. Ideally, if we had complete control over how applications behave on startup, we could design them to “self-heal” and avoid dependency issues altogether. However, many of the components in the systems we work with are either closed source or require more experience and expertise to modify.

We’ve also noticed that, in practice, for many data-critical production systems, many of our customers prefer to manually control the boot process to confirm data integrity.

The scenario of partial crashes is interesting. I need to think about how to handle that a bit more. Thanks for the feedback!
> why would I want to migrate to any country whose leaders were elected on a platform of hating migrants?

"Hating migrants" != "want only the migrants that pull their own weight"

Why would you personally want to immigrate to a place where you are immediately expected to foot the bill for everyone else?
Should not have to worry about US pulling out of NATO. Trump is stupid, but even he realizes that it would not benefit US in a any way. Significantly reducing funding might happen, but hopefully that will make EU countries increase their defense spendings as a reaction.
This is all true but I actually don’t think Trump knows his solutions won’t solve these problems. I think he’s actually a simple-minded man who’s saying the simple solutions he thinks will work because he hasn’t ever thought about the problem.

I mean he came into power and proudly declared he had never heard of NATO before running (!!) but was brought up to speed in ~2min (!!). That’s who he is.
Sadly, he's never indicated anything to the contrary
Firstly, Roe vs Wade was overturned in 2022 during the BIDEN term.

Secondly, Trump has never called for a federal abortion ban, nor, in fact, a state abortion ban.

Thirdly, there are currently exemptions in ALL states that protect abortion if it is a life-saving necessity for the mother. Trump has never proposed removing these exemptions.
That's a false analogy. We're not fighting the Nazis, and Russia has no intention of dominating the world. If waging war was enough to be like the Nazis, I believe the USA got there a long time ago.
Perhaps he may have, however June polls not a good indicator, it is lifetime away from November elections, politicians have recovered from such gaps.

The best tool for the job is, I’d argue, the one that does the job most reliably for the least amount of money. When you consider how little expertise or data you need to use openai offerings, I’d be surprised if sentiment analysis using classical ML methods are actually better (unless you are an expert and have a good dataset).
This. One side sticks to the rules and watches silently while the other side slowly undermines them.

At the same time, the Republicans have perfected the twin strategies of sowing distrust in neutral media reorting and playing the victim card consistently to everything, even their own attacks.
I hope you will enjoy your flight to another state the next time you are sick and need surgery.
OK, so we fight until there's nobody left alive for what exactly?

Most of the Russian proposed peace plans are basically. "Leave it alone and stop fighting".

Hardly the demand of Kiev on a silver platter and would save a lot of resoruces/lives.

Is Ukranian pride worth it's economic destruction, worth lining the pockets of the war merchants or worth the continued spiraling death toll?

It's a little less David vs Goliath and more aknin to Davids little cousin tommy with a waterpistol vs a flame thrower...
Lol. Yeah well if we are willing to trade our last shreds of integrity and capitulate that dictatorship is the winning strategy then sure. I mean, not to bring WW2 in the discussion, but back in that time people thought giving them what they want would lead to peace.

These things also span decades or centuries so I think there will be time when Russia and the West will be closer again. It's just they have to stop their imperialism and grabbing land. Think they have enough already.
If this is somehow the end of democracy here, it wasn't Trump's election that killed it. One election alone (or two if you believe both terms were the cause) couldn't likely kill an otherwise healthy democracy. Democracy would have been dead for my of my lifetime if this is the moment it becomes clear that its gone.

That said, I very much dislike Trump and would rather have an empty oval office (arguably we have that already), but I think his threat to democracy has been wildly overblown. Unless a rogue president throws out the book entirely, Congress would have to be the ones to actually get rid of most of our democratic processes and systems.
Morality is not universally as simple as 'stealing is bad' - a basic lesson in ethics, really. Is it bad to steal food for your starving family? If your answer is a simple 'yes', then I applaud you your certainty in life. I wish I had that. But for me, and many others, things aren't quite that simple.

In any case, I wasn't really referring to things like those on your list (one of those things is really not like the others, by the way. Seems very bad faith to me) but more things like trans issues, immigration, welfare, etc.
> How sure are we that these so-called title drops are what this article purports them to be

What does the article purport them to be? Right at the top I see:

> A title drop is when a character in a movie says the title of the movie they're in.

That makes no distinction if the title or the script came first. The article does call out movies who do that in a cringe or obvious way (like Suicide Squad, which had prior art) but also includes movies where that is unavoidable, such as Barbie.

More importantly, it doesn’t matter which came first. As soon as you make a line and a title the same, the line becomes a title drop. The audience sees the final product, not the process.

> An analogy

That analogy doesn’t work. Songs are typically repetitive and a few minutes long. Everyone expects them to name the title. A movie, on the other hand, is an experience that asks suspension of disbelief from you, it tries to engross you in its world over the course of multiple hours. When a character title drops, in a second you’re suddenly and forcefully pulled back from the illusion and reminded you’re watching a movie.
He said many times very explicitly he will be a dictator on day one. We'll find out in a few months what the means exactly. I honestly don't know.

People doing it everywhere around the world for almost a century now, effectively is. Unsurprisingly for anyone whose understanding of science extends beyond cheap comic book tropes, everything is fine.

Radiation isn't evil magic, mutations don't give superpowers. Both are natural phenomena, and they're not anything like they're portrayed in comic books.

Might as well worry about watering your plants. Plants are perfectly fine, they live and grow by nature magic, no need for humans to play god and add water to the mix, what could possibly go wrong?
Err no. Let me educate you a bit. The word aristocracy is an ancient Greek word that means “Rule of the most capable/best”.
As I understand it, in the US, "get out the vote" efforts don't count as campaigning, so they aren't subject to campaign finance laws. Attempting to persuade voters to vote for something or someone in particular, or even trying to understand their views, would likely put them in a different organizational category.
It sounds like the 3rd party tool did what MS told it to do.

That is true for all formats of lock files, by definition.
I see that we're already moving goalposts.

Trump has a responsibility in escalating the tension between Israel and Palestine following the move of the American embassy to Jerusalem.

He also escalated bombings in Syria.

His terrible Afghan deal also made it so that there was no time or guarantees to fly Americans and people that helped America to the US while also leaving a lot of American military gear to the Talibans. This also ridiculed the US on the international stage.
I wouldn't say stupid, I'd say ignorant. A more progressive interpretation: you can't help someone else until you have your own mask on. People are voting based on how they feel their life is compared to 4 years ago and apparently half of america very much recalls life being better then. They don't feel the need to dig any deeper than that; they need to get their own oxygen mask on.
> narrative and tribalism

The Vote is part of the physical manifestation of that. It deepens the identity. It deepens the bias.

If the democrats were interested in winning they would have had a few options this election. The party seems to have other priorities that they always prioritize over winning though, and that hasn't worked out well for them.

They are pro-Israel and anti-Palestine.

They are pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine.

I suppose but I'm not really sure if the GOP has anything on offer that will actually help. I hope they do because we're gonna be living in it but nothing thus far proposed has been said to be good for the economy.
Immigration opponents just make up things so they can claim immigration caused it. The biggest tell is that they mention wage suppression, because they think it'll make them sound sympathetic - but there is absolutely zero evidence that immigration lowers any native wages, and theoretically you should expect it to increase them because of increased demand. (Conversely, when people move away this reduces demand and lowers your wages.)

That and employment for prime aged (i.e. not retirement age) Americans is as high as it's ever been.
> Let's ignore for now that this will surprise every C developer out there that have been doing if (NULL != ptr) free(ptr) for 50 years now.

if you did 50 years of development and haven't realized that in projects crossing language (or just separately complied C libs) you have to free things where you create them and can't use the many many libraries which do require you to use their own free/destruction functions and don't even have understand that free is flat and in turn you need to also "destruct" each item in a struct manually and that if you don't have a custom function for this it can easily become a huge bug prone mess

but if you are not a senior C/C++/FFI developer maybe not a C/C++/FFI developer at all it's not hard to see how you might have missed this things tbh.
Economically liberal (as in Milton Friedman, Thomas Sowell) and socially liberal.

Trumps tends to be economically liberal internally and a conservative for international economics.

Does anyone use prolog in their day to day life? I would love to hear some anecdotes.

My experience with the language from doing a constraint programming course in master's is that programs that can be solved quickly on procedural languages tend to require immense thinking and testing to be done in prolog. It's gotten so bad that all students don't even bother learning it since you aren't given much time during the exam and the problems are very complex.
At the moment, it's only US locations.
The US doesn't give immigrants welfare, and they pay taxes, so that would be difficult.
It's about the courage to be honest- or perhaps just plain honesty.

Note I'm not saying Trump is honest - it's just some of the democrat dishonesty was off-the-scale.

As an example - "Biden is fine to serve 4 more years".

Such obvious dishonesty is really damaging when voting is largely emotional.
atlas intel has got so many elections correctly that i really don't understand why other pollsters are not copying their methodologies.

Which was neither an American nor a Democratic Party phenomenon, and again the US did better with recovery than anyone else by a huge margin.

Revisionist history points toward COVID response being a left-wing thing, but there was almost zero variation in policy state to state. The only point of variation was school reopening schedules.

The one thing that was knowably wrong to do at the time we did it was to deliberately slow down testing to keep Trump’s numbers looking good. Everything else was flying blind and to the extent we made mistakes (visible in retrospect), we made fewer of them than any of our peers.
You could try to answer this yourself by looking up the definition and cross checking it with the rhetoric from the republican party during this campaign.

Russia is waging a war of conquest to annex its former colonies and restore its empire. There is zero reason to believe this will stop unless it is stopped.
We have a two-party system: this is the natural conclusion of applied game theory and is unfortunate.

"far right" and "far left" are terms for contextualizing a political stance, based on the world view and actions. It's doesn't matter where the majority of people stands, they can be all far right or far left or in the center, it wouldn't change the definitions.

As a non-American, how does Donald Trump seem to oppose democracy?

That is the message continuously published here by generalist German newspapers, but I cannot find any substance behind it.
I recall a vox pop in the Washington Post that included a woman who was voting for Trump because she thought he'd be better than Harris at standing up to Putin. Trump seems to attract a combination of low information voters and voters who are reluctant to give their real reasons for voting for him. Either way, don't expect the given reason to make a lot of sense.

I don’t think it’s as tribal as you think. At the margins yes, there are wing nuts both ways. But Trump got a lot of votes he didn’t get before and Kamala got fewer than Biden.

Inflation has been a shocker. The border being flooded is terrifying. The economy is and has been struggling in many peoples lives. And the democrats want to still focus on identity politics.

I think they can easily win in 4 years but they need to change their ways. They need to abandon the poisoned ideology that Obama inspired.

But inflation has been a global/western phenomena post Russian invasion and not unique to the US. Your economy has outperformed the developed averages. Non existent dem messaging on it is inexplicable to me… from a uk or European perspective your economic performance under Biden was enviable.
Let's hope we never have to find out, but so many people captivated by a conman while simultaneously crying about everyone else's position is a recipe for abuse.

Separating children from parents at the border, reverting hard fought women's right to their own body, that is the stirring of fascist behaviour.
And others will die in wars they want no part of. So… yeah.
Maybe it wrecked the economy but all my US stock done extremely well over that span of time, even excluding the big crazy bump a bunch of them had over the first year of covid.

I expect the stock market to bloat like hell for a year or two at the expense of pretty much everything else.

Trump is not the most predictable guy on policy and they seems to be waiting to see what will happen in real legislation, not just in campaign speeches.
Why didn't they focus on that? I think the average person would care a lot more about that fact than Trump being convicted on 34 counts of not properly filing business records. Since inflation actually affects them. Yet the convictions took up no shortage of airtime in attack ads.
This is why the US is so great. You debase the dollar, the whole world suffers, and you can still claim "we've outperformed our peers". Fantastic.
JD Vance said he supports the anti-US-big-tech campaign of Lina Khan and that he thinks she has a place in the new admin.

Fortunately, I'll be able to afford it because I won't be pumping my entire paycheck into social programs, groceries, and supporting a massive population of unskilled illegal immigrants.
Life must be simple if every kind of criticism is simply hypocrisy.
I call it practical, on point, gruff, and charismatic.

Practical and on point because Trump talks about things that the common American actually gives a shit about in a way that the common American can understand and relate to. This also has a side effect of uniting people under a common cause despite outward appearances.

Gruff because that style of speech appeals to most Americans who don't like being sophisticated, or worse: Being politically correct. Remember that being politically incorrect was one of the reasons Trump won in 2016, and it's still one of the reasons he won again today.

Charismatic because, well, I think everyone has to at least admit that the man draws people in despite any and all odds.

Gut sec and fcc. That is his motivation.
They just mean that they would have to do real work and not just sit on their ass goofing off on the internet all day. Real work is something the last few generations are "allergic" to, it gives them the "ick". They somehow got it into their head that doing work is bad and that you should only rely on other peoples work, I blame Gates and public education.
It is a rigged election, just not in the way republicans mean it. All American elections are rigged to make it deliberately difficult for many people to vote.

This is the lump of labor fallacy. Adding people increases demand more than supply, meaning it increases wages. Immigrants also have complementary skills to natives, which further reduces risk.

There is no empirical evidence of anyone's wages being lowered by immigration.

Trying to cheat a few votes isn't more fascist than gerrymandering, it is corrupt but it isn't fascism.

If he had rigged the whole election I'd say it is fascism, but rigging a whole election is on such a different scale and planning and conspiracy level that it isn't the same thing, he didn't even try to rig the election. If he tried to rig it then it wouldn't be one such call, it would be hundreds with many accomplices.
Nah, you're just arguing magical thinking based on, to put it charitably, an understanding of reality pulled from pulp sci-fi and cheap comic books.

> I imagine that American stuff will be quickly replaced with European made stuff.

I am in the process of (very slowly) decluttering my life. One weird observation that I had, is that I have very few hardware from the USA, even when I think liberally about "from" as designed and not just manufactured. I found a (crappy) HP printer, (wonderful) Apple hardware and two Zippos. There may be more, but it's not obvious labelled.

Software and some online services on the other hand are different.

From this European perspective the USA is very much a service export and not a stuff export economy.
