There are some important caveats to that logic: - the share of the budget spending from these worker cuts is minuscule, even the overall cost of all federal worker is a small percentage of spending, the bulk of spending is in entitlements a

Just did one spanish video, worked really well. The interface is simple enough and easy, great start. It would be great to have a translation appear after completing the words, and maybe a way to save words.

It’s an understatement to say Canada is extremely displeased at this, it will cost the US billions in lost trade and tourism. And for what? The trade deficit if you take out oil exports from Canada to the US is actually in favor of the US.

Vaccines reinforce natural immunity. So to be clear you’re arguing let’s kill a whole bunch of people to “increase” the population’s strength, although you express some mild concern about the “cost” of doing that? Is that the argument here?

So we now have an unelected, un-appointed civilian who is the richest man in the world in the oval office telling us how he is tearing it all apart, while the guy who was actually elected is just seating there, and people think this is norm

Great job, love the simplicity. On mobile would be nice if the choice of places was collapsible or maybe in a modal? Another place to add is Camden Art Center https://camdenartcentre.org

The fog of propaganda is pretty deep to write those word to defend a man who did exactly that: tried to extend his power through illegal means. He failed last time, he is far more likely to succeed now. And yes his means are again illegal,

In theory yes, in practice in the US today it’s becoming more and more of a fantasy. I hope we can get back there one day, we have the constitutional framework to do so, but the current system is running fast in the opposite direction, one

Not everything needs to be profit generating, government funded research is how we get breakthroughs with very wide ranging benefits, especially when we are talking about advances in medicine. Profit making will often have the opposite effe

Allegedly, attaining AGI will get them out of the Microsoft deal (if I understood correctly on a recent Pivot episode). Notice the lawyerly « AGI as we have traditionally understood it »

In my experience the AWS waf and ddos mitigation are really expensive (min $40k per year contract) and are missing really basic ddos handling capabilities (last I evaluated it they did not have the ability to enforce client js validation wh

Maybe you should look up what is traded within nafta. You think a 10% increase on cars or construction is not a big deal eh?

So basically this is a national sales tax that will increase inflation in the US.

This is at best wishful thinking when 2/3 of the federal budget are medicare/ss/military. What exactly will get cut? The efficiency cuts they are talking about will barely make a dent while making services worse for everyone.

Except you will have to disclose ownership for KYC requirements to financial institutions, and for the new BOI yearly filing in the US.

China is sliding and failing, 15-20 years ago it seemed imminent that China would surpass the US, but today the US is the strongest militarily and economically by far that it’s ever been by all measures. Not everyone in the US is sharing in

Which is bonkers considering there is only one side that has attempted to overturn an election and has a candidate who openly admires autocrats and genocidal dictators.

Perfect example of whataboutism. Even if what you say is true, did she refuse to concede? did she then incite her followers to attack the seat of government to stop the certification of his victory? did she pressure election officials to «

That is just more propaganda to justify trump’s attempt to steal an election he clearly lost. Clinton didn’t claim she won, she won the popular vote by 2 million votes, that’s what she claimed which is accurate, but she conceded defeat. Tru
