Thats the best way of putting it…
He isn’t even trying to hide it anymore. In fact, I’d go as far as to say, he’s possibly far beyond the point of even knowing he’s lying anymore. He’s either literally delusional, or he’s relying on 3rd party info exclusively from places like Fox News without performing any type of validation and is gullible.
Actually, I disagree. Trump actually did make one point exceptionally well and did an excellent job emphasizing it.
That he is going to blame immigrants for everything and he is racist
Id go as far as calling it a wolf whistle to people he knows are violent and will help him during election time
It’s clear that he’s slowly trying to set up another civil war
Trump cheated in more ways than one. So it’s hard to keep up
The only policy anyone will remember Trump has, is that he’s racist.
He made sure everyone knew that and kept emphasizing it. And it was the only one that wasn’t made up on the spot. He seemed to have lots of ways to blame foreigners for everything
And he wanted everyone to know he’s better at golf. That I believe, considering he spent his 4 years in office playing it (the only thing he seemingly did was steal some paperwork and blame others).
Also, why didn’t CNN bring up stuff like the fact Trump told people to shove a lightbulb up their ass to cure covid? Or follow up on the lies. They should have had a ticker at the bottom with a fact check
I disagree with a lot of coverage. Public talking is hard and everyone has had a brainfart before.
Trump wanted everyone to know he was racist… It was his only clear policy
If you listen to the actual words, Biden had answers. He might not have been as vocal (which could have been fixed with a mic adjustment).
But it’s easy to win a debate if you constantly lie. You can’t get onto the offensive, because Trump has the advantage that he can make up bullshit, and claim bullshit. He doesn’t even need to think about policies.
It’s like arguing on Facebook. Talking on behalf of everyone and claiming that “nobody agrees” can only be disputed with facts.
As others have said, the format was an issue that benefits Trump. CNN should have fact checked on the spot
I generally stay out of these Ukraine discussions, but Russia is clearly the aggressor.
Unless you can justify what valid reason Russia had to attack Ukraine or what you mean by diplomacy, then it’s a non argument.
Russia clearly isn’t interested in discussions unless they involve surrendering…
You do realise I was joking right? The /s is for sarcasm
Republicans have already switched from calling it a witch hunt to “what about Biden”
Nah. Stealing top secret documents and showing them to random people to make your dong seem bigger isn’t that important
/S
The scary thing isn’t the people we know he’s shown them to. I seem to recall there are still some missing, and we don’t know the extent to which the information on them has been exposed
Ahh yes. I switched companies because some new sales guy I discovered was getting paid more than me after I was there 9 years.
Here in Australia, really looking forward to this
I sincerely hope he spends the next month until sentencing shitting bricks stressed out.
He’s done so much awful shit that nobody remembers the entirety of it from trans people, to Chinese people (China flu) and even the adoption of renewables.
He’s fucked over everyone including many of his own employees.
It was a step back 40 years. Now with him gone, assholes won’t be emboldened as much
I don’t know how GitLab would make anyone terribly unproductive. I see many FOSS projects or even entire (proprietary) software companies choosing GitLab for source code management. In fact, the company I work at (a government contractor) uses GitLab, as well as many other FOSS tools. And it’s definitely not a FOSS company, our main customers are the police and military.
The switch process will be terribly unproductive. Also, even the process of discussing the change is a nightmare. Don’t forget all the backend stuff that needs to change too from all downstream. It’s not as easy as using the API and tools to copy the repo in this case… Everyone from Fedora to Zedora is affected on their side because the upstream address will change
Sure, but their first choice for a data source is GitHub. For other platforms, they would need to develop and maintain an indexer/crawler (which you can block), which costs time and thus money. Just think about it, why would you upload my code to a platform, when you know that the owner of that platform actually hates FOSS and only wants to profit from it?
Microsoft actually contributes a lot to open source… Why would they need an indexer / crawler? They already index everything using bing… Then they just need a git pull.
What has Microsoft recently contributed to the FOSS community? I mean truly contributed. Why should a FOSS project use their proprietary products when other free (both as in price and as in freedom) alternatives exist?
Because they work… Switching platforms offers no real benefits in any way, and Github is free for open source projects.
Dumb argument. The code editor/IDE is a personal choice of each developer. The software forge isn’t. I really doubt that anyone at OpenSSL is using VSCode (a bloated JavaScript mess) for C development. But if you need to use it, there’s VSCodium which is completely open source and removes the Microsoft tracking.
Yeah… Sure… Every developer I know these days except one uses VSCode. And we took him off the main team in our company because he was taking too long to do things (because we are all using copilot).
What exactly do you think Microsoft is tracking? Do you think they’re peeking on developer webcams? Nope… https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/telemetry . Crash reports are normal… Its all GDPR anyway. I don’t care if Microsoft knows what language I’m developing on
So is GitLab
Cool… I’ll just leave this here: https://arstechnica.com/security/2024/05/0-click-gitlab-hijacking-flaw-under-active-exploit-with-thousands-still-unpatched/
People should use what they want. It’s actually bad for the community when people who contribute nothing try to project manage projects they have nothing to do with. It’s their decision… If you don’t like it, fork OpenSSL to Gitlab and do your own thing… Trust me, you’ll notice that choosing Github vs Gitlab doesn’t affect project success.
Again, the productivity is what matters. You dont think they could train copilot if it’s hosted on a remote git repo?
Also, are you going to do the self hosting for them? It uses a lot of resources and time to self host. Again, nobody knows this better than us.
Also, what have you contributed to openssl lately? Resources? Money?
Switching hosting isn’t a two second job either. There is a serious hit to productivity during migration for everyone, including distros.
Are they allowed to use vs code to develop too? Or do they need to change?
Nothing helps open source succeed better than productivity. Also, if they can train copilot with open ssl, good luck. Apparently the code is difficult
Also, there is always the possibility some of these smaller ones go bankrupt. GitHub is highly unlikely to
What bugs? Be specific…
Also, I can’t remember the last time Github has been offline for me (in the last 3.5 years of using it at work)
Those are fairly weak arguments honestly, none which have anything to do with the features on GitHub itself. In fact, this could have been written by someone who has no development or project management knowledge
Open source projects also don’t pay for GitHub.
Here’s one counterargument. One of our projects failed because we wasted so much time arguing about the hosting that we didn’t get much done. We moved between a few different services and wasted time comparing shortcomings between them.
In practice, migration from GitHub is actually super easy if you ever wanted to because they literally have an API for everything. It also is a really comprehensive service, and a lot of the open source ones are missing things
Im not a fan of Microsoft, but GitHub works really well and you can rely on it to be fully reliable (there have been few outages)
If you’re going to make your system worse, you should also combine with Norton anti virus too.
Either that, or just use the Microsoft one that is free
In my case, I dropped one of my projects because there were so many trolls in the community who called my project crap
Honestly, the biggest enemy at times to the community is ourselves. It is sometimes so demotivating at times.
And the biggest trolls are often the ones with the least knowledge about running projects
It’s like the wankers at the moment telling developers not to use GitHub or discord or whatever. They’re not going to contribute resources or money to the project, but they’ll be a backseat driver
I had a project I gave up and dropped because of the general OSS community being crap.
There were a lot of supporters, but got tired of all the wankers I had to defend the project from. It simply wasn’t worth it when I was putting in so much time for free
So, I agree entirely.
It’s not everyone, but we do have a lot of donkeys out there honestly, and i suspect it has a bigger impact on the development community than we know
Who saw this coming?
Everyone.
If he gets elected, he’s been backed into a corner so he’ll need to turn it into a dictatorship too
That’s the thing
If he has total immunity, doesn’t it mean he can just sign into law to remove the dodgy Trump justices?
The really sad part is that people on the fox news youtube are calling this a win for America.
Their rights are being eroded, and they’re still brown nosing the guy.
