I don't really know if this is the cause. But the whole DOGE thing sounded highly irresponsible. Did they understand what they were cutting. Furthermore, there may be even worst consequences in the more distant future.

It is becoming very hard not to use an LLM. I have been working on a project all this year. I started doing everything by hand, and I am using LLMs a little bit more every day. I suppose we want to use projects that were crafted with care,

I started using SCCS in the late 80s, then RCS, then CSV, then subversion, and finally git.

I also consider myself a fairly good pragmatic software engineer. I have led small (3 engineers), medium (15), and large (100+) teams. To me, the best time was late 90s, early 2000s. We had a lot of autonomy. People would just trusted tha

Same for me. But I suspect I got them by practicing spinning kicks in Tae-Kwan-do. I have to get checked for detachment, but I am good. Doctor told me that eventually my brain would erase them, What I have been doing just ignore them as m

Sure, horrible things happened. But a big part of those deaths was the new diseases that people had no developed immunity to. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

Those are left-leaning only if you do not the details. Please consider that this government has a fantastic propaganda machine. For example, We already had a Universal Basic Healthcare called Seguro Popular. Which was destroyed in 2018 by

That was not my intention, but thanks for clarifying it. Now days we have to ask if political movements are committed to democracy even before we ask if the lean left or right.

The current government of Mexico sells itself as a left leaning party. But it has been destroying or capturing every institution we had built to support our democracy, the separation of powers and the rule of law. From the judicial branch,

> Mexico most cabs there just have windows rolled down or even no windows at all aside from the windshield. That is mostly untrue. I have only seen those in Mazatlan and other turisti destinations.

In your example, (it seem to me that) is not that the problems is expanding (getting worst) but it is reaching (helping) more people.

Well thought out strategic tariffs are ok. But this is knee jerk tariffs. Even in the best case scenario introduces a lot of uncertainty which freezes investing and decision making in general.

Just wondering if we are working a lot but perhaps we do not get the same feeling of accomplishment that we used to get since we feel that we are not really doing the work?

I am not sure if your initial paragraph was meant to be sarcastic. I do believe we should give additional help based on economic need rather than race or skin color. Free universal preschool seems to have big impact. Also free universal sc
