Hah, wow. I hope this is an LLM response, otherwise, what a huge blindspot for a "developer"...

The ingredients for the Syrian conflict came about because of climate change (dried up farms - farmers moving to cities to find jobs - social tension). The last 10+ years has shown that the relatively well-off Europeans would rather watch the Syrians drown rather than "pollute" their luxury enclaves...

We'd rather kill everyone else rather than give up our luxuries...

The Iranian resistance now busy writing articles to trick Claude to redirect the American firepower to an empty piece of desert...

There's a version of Billy that is deeper (39cm = 15.35in), but maybe only in some regions: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/billy-bookcase-white-90401932/

I too would like to escape accountability (for murders, illegal imprisonment and kidnapping of people to foreign countries) by my manager putting me in a different department, and the opposing party thinking "Oh, that person's no longer in that position, that's a win for us!" and journalists being scared parrots instead of being a challenging fifth estate..

Did everybody in that country get RFK Jr's brainworm or something?

Win-wise, it does show the administration is still at least somewhat vulnerable to public outcry and backlash. That's a good thing.

I repeat, if a company could break the law, and escape accountability by moving the figurehead to a different department, and putting a different asshole in her place... what sort of accountability is there?

I should just make a government where there are 365 DHS leaders, and if you want to get accountability about what the DHS did yesterday, well, lucky you, that DHS leader lost her job at midnight last night!

That makes me think of the UK government, where utter fuckheads resign because they did something embarassing, and a few months later get called back into government. Peter Mandelson (friend of Epstein) for Department for Children, Schools and Families when?

She's been fired; they made up a new position for her that's clearly to keep her under their thumb rather than be a free agent.

Any accountability beyond that is gonna need an election first.

I don’t see evidence for that. She expressed ambition to run for President. That threatened the secretive succession plan around Trump.

Someone in Japan can also say your first sentence. Lucky them (and you), but in a lot of parts of the world, selfish cuntiness is a growing disease.

To summarize the whole article, it's United Airlines, and "listening to music without headphones".

"Voluntarily". I guess that word fits if being a cog in the capitalist machine is voluntary. Lots of US soldiers are poor kids with no prospects, the USA offers subsidized education and healthcare, but only after you put your body on the line to be shot at because the child-rapist-in-chief and a Fox News alcoholic wants to please their corrupt Israeli daddy...

Amongst Netanyahu's corruption charges is that he and his wife used taxpayer money to rent a celebrity chef. Imagine expanding a genocide to WW3 because you wanted to escape accountability for stealing public money to pay for some overpriced dinner...

Huh, warlord tribes roaming the earth, their members formed by descendants of the Loser Ranks of Musk, Zuck, Bezos, Ellison.. that'd be an interesting dystopia.

Someone commented along the lines of "I never thought the people bringing about the destruction or the planet would be such dweeby dorks."

The "professor of Computer Science" seems to be confusing URLs and the textual representation of a URL inside HTML.

Considering he wrote on his blog that he "ranks among the top 2% of scientists globally", I'm guessing he's more of a Trumpesque personality, another "very stable genius".

He is a bit full of himself, but if you read some of his other work, he’s done some incredible work making fast code. Lots of SIMD, some novel algorithms, etc.
