Why not blame both?

And they do so because there are stupid people buying their shit. Pretty simple.

But is that a reason for Republicans to not support him?

Ich mach mir aus der Perspektive der Realität Gedanken. Es gibt diverse Gründe aus denen Freiheitsentzug sinnvoll ist, unter anderem braucht man eine Möglichkeit gewisse Menschen, wie bspw. Mörder, Triebtäter, u.ä. von der Allgemeinheit fern zu halten (oder anders gesagt die Allgemeinheit vor ihnen zu schützen), man braucht Rehabilitationseinrichtungen, und ebenso braucht es in einer Gesellschaft strafende Maßnahmen für Verbrechen, u.a. zur Prävention.

All das braucht man in einer Gesellschaft.

In einem vernünftig geführten Gefängnis werden die Leute nicht einfach weg gesperrt, man hat Möglichkeiten zur Fortbildung, Therapeuten und generell Hilfe zur Rehabilitation, während man für sich und andere keine Gefahr darstellt.

Welche Grundsatzfrage genau? Also ob es Gefängnisse überhaupt braucht, ist schnell beantwortet: jup.

Wen man dort alles hin steckt, wer die führt, wie, auf welchen gesetzlichen Grundlagen, usw., das sind alles Fragen über die man sinnvoll diskutieren kann und sollte.

Das liest sich wie “wurde unter einem Baum erschossen, Aktivisten wollen jetzt alle Bäume abschaffen”. Die Existenz von Gefängnissen hat recht wenig damit zu tun, was für Gesindel als Wärter eingestellt wird. Die Dinger haben schon nen Sinn. Man bräuchte nur Reformen und sollte darauf achten dass man nicht auf beiden Seiten vom Gitter Verbrecher hat.

“Identitäre, Neonazis, aber auch AfD-Leute” als würde letzteres nicht schon in den ersten zwei stecken?!?

Absolutely!

Vielleicht die Infrastruktur verstaatlichen und die Befahrung, also den Service, in privater Hand lassen mit genügend Anreiz für Firmen es gut umzusetzen.

What you should say: “There’s a problem with X and Y”.

What you shouldn’t say: “Hitler is right with X and Y”.

Even if this fucker is right on something, you don’t get the right people behind you with this wording.

You could just emulate on a steam deck while having a bazillion other games available

Why did someone buy their shit?

I had this hope too, but he already went light-years too far and all I read is “soon …”.

I’m generally against violence, but I really hope you guys do something over there…

But going peacefully on the streets is only successful if the government you want to send a message to is listening, i.e. if it either cares for their citizens or is in any way rational.

I hope I’m wrong here, but I can’t see anything changing for the better in your country. It currently looks like 70 million people trying to talk through a knife fight.

The only field I see LLMs enhancing productivity of competent developers is front end stuff where you really have to write a lot of bloat.

In every other scenario software developers who know what they’re doing the simple or repetitive things are mostly solved by writing a fucking function, class or library. In today’s world developers are mostly busy designing and implementing rather complex systems or managing legacy code, where LLMs are completely useless.

We’re developing measurement systems and data analysis tools for the automotive industry and we tried several LLMs extensively in our daily business. Not a single developer was happy with the results.

If you just want to have the list of packages saved in a text file and use that file for apt/dnf/… you could just

sudo dnf install $(< list.txt)

You’re right 👍

The US as a whole is a third world country. Low average income, nearly non-existent health insurance, incredibly bad education (system), high wealth gap, fascism, insanely bad labor laws, the list goes on and on…

That might be the case. But more often than not it’s WAY too easy to see that a decision is bad to argue that we can’t implement any measures against that.

In this case we “just” need laws that prohibit that any infrastructure can be dependent on few foreign entities and had to be completely independent if reasonably possible. Diversification or elimination of dependencies as a law.

You can’t rely on foreign proprietary software like Teams for public facilities and infrastructure if there are reasonable alternatives.

You can’t rely only on Russian oil if other countries are available for trade.

We should start making laws and frameworks that prevent us from making bad decisions in the future. Using Microsoft and their products was always a bad decision and fixing that now is way more expensive than whatever the arguments were against Linux and FOSS software in the last two decades. It was just easy and convenient at the time.

Being dependent on Russia for oil didn’t turn out great either.

But I just see people talking about how to change things for the better, never how to prevent silly things in the future. I’d rather be in a situation were we don’t have to fix things.
