It's on apt. It's literally on Cargo. It's on DockerHub with ads. It's literally on nuget. You can probably find it on snap. Dude it's on portage. It's a Homebrew original. It's on pacman. You can download it on nixpkgs. You can go to pkgsrc and watch it. Log onto the Windows Store right now.
Every time I see a photo of him at one of these international events for psychotic capitalists, I take comfort in the fact that he is clearly still too scared to properly appear in public. He know's there are still many people who would attempt to place him under citizen's arrest.
It’s incredible, because you literally cannot understand current affairs without knowing this. But it can’t be said aloud, so everyone just pretends it’s all weird and inexplicable.
How is it possible to write 900 words about the Cost Of Living crisis - turns out it's actually real, not just invented by bitter leftists - and yet give no indication of how it happened (handing the country over to rentiers) nor what we should do about it (take it back from them)
The hacks have known for so long what McSweeney is - a millionaire-backed left-smashing cynic - that to them it seems ridiculous to complain about him doing the one thing he is good at. The 'comms' problem is they somehow never got round to telling anyone else about him.
Tom Holland is permanently on my blacklist for signing this letter www.theguardian.com/politics/201...
Could this be another 'people were mean online' column? Why yes, it could.
Simpsons still of Mayor Quimby giving a statement: "IN LIGHT OF THESE NEW FACTS - OF WHICH I NOW REALIZEI WAS LARGELY AWARE - WE MUST TAKE ACTION."
Everyone on the labour front bench today
The Tories embarked on a political programme in 1983 that would inevitably and by-design lead to the destruction of the living standards of the majority of the UK population. They have followed that programme though to its logical conclusion. That is not failure, that is success.
The anonymous briefings will continue until morale improves
Extra UK Political Journalism points here because the interviewer here is also married to a “liberal conservative” Tory peer
Pretty funny to see Nicole and her ilk watching this intently on the social medias retweeting each other into frenzied rage, while the good folks at Glastonbury are totally oblivious and having a great time in the sun
The was a period of time where The Times were pumping out anti-Corbyn hit-pieces on a daily basis. Always the same byline, Henry Zeffman. A total bought-and-paid-for hack. There are so many of them, and they are everywhere.
Liberals have precisely three modes: 1) intone about Jews being killed [by the Left: ominous, imminent]; 2) ignore genuine threat of Jews being killed [by the Right: complicated, inscrutable], and 3) joke about Jews being killed [general, historical, hilarious].
I preferred the more ideologically-loaded synonym 'neoliberal'
A total fraud. "I got trolled online by the left just because I perpetuated lies and smears in a successful attempt to destroy them"
He's at least right that it wouldn't be as well-received now. The extremely cynical way that Westminster operates has not changed much, but the fact that it has had terrible, bleak consequences for the country at large (in a way that wasn't as obvious in the mid-2000s) has made the joke Not Funny
We could perhaps conceive of it as manufacturing consent for the "Big Other". Not intended to work on the population at large but to demonstrate the official line, which everyone was expected to pretend was true.
Amusingly, Go repeated one of Java's worst mistakes - namely launching without generics, then bolting them on after-the-fact in a hacky way. Doubly amusing since Go's designers clearly thought they were making the anti-Java.
I'm a dedicated enough go-hater that sometimes I re-read this thread from 2009, where some poor soul valiantly tried to get null-safety into the language and is repeatedly misunderstood and dismissed groups.google.com/g/golang-nut...
Go at 1.0 was a bad language, but after 13 years of a tech giant pumping in colossal resources, 1% of which would make most open source projects weep with gratitude... it actually feels like a worse language, since now we have Rust to compare it against.
"We couldn't live without it" would be a good tagline for the NHS
Nostalgic for the extremely real era of George Smiley when the secret services has Class and Taste :'(
Waking up and catching up on the 'discourse' this morning is like being kicked in the head. The people who've got everything they want, whose politics are absolutely hegemonic, acting like they've suddenly noticed things are shit and by gawsh we have to very non-specifically do something
As usual the plain conclusion is 'The left were right all along and I was wrong, some self-reflection required' but instead his conclusion will be 'The left were right but in a bad, ideological way, whereas I was wrong but in a good, academic way, some sad head-shaking required'.
If you didn't have to mark it as `mut`, but then tried to pass it to a function that take an `&mut`, and then the borrow checker worked out it couldn't be passed as `&mut` because the borrow is aliased... and then you realize you have to totally rewrite the function... could be confusing/annoying?
You have to take into account NICs, and also that above £100K you start to lose you £12.5K tax-free allowance. Also you lose your free nursery benefit. TBH the income tax system is a mess and it does tax the upper-middle class much higher than the truly rich (who tend to pay capital gains instead).
Make no sense on its own terms? A pay rise to above £100K would tip the husband into the 60% _marginal_ tax bracket. He is not less well off than before the pay rise - obviously. These sorts of articles are always sketchy once you look at the details.
Yeesh, that little smirk as she desperately tries not to look at the camera. Wonder how many hundreds of times she replayed this clip to herself once she got home.
Seems like 'Labour insiders' are still(!) hugely underestimating just how much everyone hates their guts, and will vote against them just to give them one in the eye
