- Because your proposal leads to layoffs and sell-offs, accelerating decline.
- Taking a 75% pay cut for free Healthcare that costs 1k a month anyway doesn't math. Not to mention the higher taxes for this privilege. European senior developers routinely get paid less than US junior developers.
- Aside from the numerous unsourced claims and hand wringing over people with garden variety center-right takes, this blog post also falsely claims Curtis Yarvin has himself claimed to be a fascist, which appears to be an outright fabrication.
- Enter on visa that requires marriage within 3 months, don't do it despite promising the government you would, then cry victim when you're deported for overstaying an entire year?
Why can't they just do what their visa REQUIRES by law?
- This is a misrepresentation. Some of these people entered on the K1 which REQUIRES marriage within 3 months. They get married 18 months later and wonder why they're getting deported for a giant visa overstay. It's fraudulent, you enter on a visa, explicitly promise to marry quickly, do not do so and expect no repercussions.
- This makes you inherently trackable, ironically. No trace is a massive trackable attribute, since almost nobody is untraceable.
- As someone who utilizes these tools for anti-fraud purposes, Firefox is just as trackable if not more trackable than Chrome (especially because you stand out by using a niche browser in the first place).
Firefox exposes a massive amount of identifiable information via canvas, audio device and feature detection methods. There's also active methods to detect private windows, use of the developer console and more.
- It was never sustainable. Because the model relied on healthy people subsidizing the people who make extremely poor choices (obesity, smoking, drugs or a combination of that). Obamacare's modeling predicted that significantly more healthy people would sign up, driving costs down. It didn't happen.
Now it is a system that ONLY the unhealthy benefit from. Everyone else pays for extremely bad choices.
- I'll take the other side of that bet given Western countries with legal gambling do not have this issue. Some have it legalized forever.
- Signal is not a project led by strong engineers in general, I realized as much when they had a class of bug that should not have been possible in a well-architected app (UI and state were disconnected resulting in random private images being sent to random contacts without your knowledge, an unforgivably bad incident that revealed slop code in the UI).
- Seems unlikely given there's brand new gas peaking plants in the pipeline. Then whenever the Tasmanian dams run dry again and hydro stops generating they'll simply fly in diesel generators and reverse several years of green hydro, again.

- Your mistake is assuming good faith on behalf of the government who arrests thousands of people for social media posts. Beyond faith, they are incredibly incompetent and this data will be stolen.
- So fucked millions will risk their lives to come here at any and all costs.
- Meta can't be trusted. The data collection, the user hostility. I don't care how good it gets.
- The boomers with million pound houses are all leeching pensions too. The society is disintegrating. The young are milked like tax livestock while they import millions of people.
The notion that this is new, or that it is a single side, is of course an attempt to paper over historical data which is readily accessible.
Authoritarian regimes tend to have no checks and balances, whereas the other two branches of government have both repeatedly restrained the executive this year, through both law and judicial rulings. They also tend to clamp down on free speech, which isn't happening (but is in Europe), or disarm the population (try owning a firearm in China or North Korea).
