Oh, he went right-wing religious. I think he was a Jan 6th denier/supporter saying it was antifa. His views on atheists was weird. Like, when he did the Gods Not Dead movie and he was playing an “atheist” he was like, I had to get into the mind of an atheist and be the most despicable person or something.

He’s been a bit looney on Twitter for a while now.

Although I haven’t checked in for a while. I haven’t checked since awkward Hitler took over.

I started with C++ and went to Java to .NET to Javascript and now to Terraform.

I know this is all a joke but there’s something definitely different with the ones above and the ones below. There’s a bit of satisfaction you can get sometimes when you’re working with memory directly and getting faster feedback (yes, there’s more math back then and it wasn’t easy to look stuff up, for sure). However, there’s new challenges nowadays … there’s so many layers on top of layers. I feel as though Stack Overflow and ChatGPT are so needed because the error messages and things we give are obfuscated or unclear (not always any library author’s fault as there’s compatibility issues, etc)

We’re doing serverless stuff at my current company and none of our devs run code locally. They have to upload it using CDK or Serverless Framework to run on the cloud. We don’t use SST so we can’t set breakpoints but like that’s a lot of crap inbetween just running your code already. Not even getting into the libraries and transpilers and stuff we use. I spent like a few weeks over Christmas to get our devs to run the code locally. Guess what? None of them use it because they’re so use to uploading it. I was like, "you can put breakpoints in it! you can have nodemon and it instant reloads! nope, none of them care … "

lol dude, I watched Baywatch, San Andreas, Rampage, SkyScraper, Jumanji and Central Intelligence from what I remember with my ex. I swear to God those movies get blurred in my mind due to his “samey” character/acting.

I think some of the movies you could argue that aren’t shite of the Rock’s are Rundown, Jumanji, Moana, and maybe some of the Fast and Furious movies. Although, I never really watched those (I’ve only see the first) but other people seem to enjoy them.

I mean there’s a list of actors that have ruined their shows for me:

• Danny Masterson
• Bill Cosby
• Kevin Spacey
• James Franco
• Kevin Sorbo
• Tom Cruise

So it’s not really what you asked because these are ones that I used to love and no longer do.

For the dumbest reasons, I can’t enjoy Gal Gadot. Her acting is repellent to me for some reason. Yes, she’s absolutely gorgeous but the acting ain’t great. I also didn’t enjoy Heather Graham’s acting but then I watched her in Scrubs and the role was just perfect. I hated The Rock’s acting as well, but my ex had a crush on him so we watched so many of his movies. Almost all of them shite.

No, those penguins have been taking advantage of US trade for too long!

I still don’t like saying how they’re both the same because I fundamentally don’t believe that to my core (ie if they had all three branches we wouldn’t be talking about all this current mayhem).

However, I think I understand your point and I agree with it.

So thanks again!

Thanks for replying, I just recalled this:

Now we can say he failed but I can’t say that specific act is evil. Palestine on the other hand … ☠️

Like, I get your viewpoints and you guys think I’m trying to bury any negative viewpoints of the democratic party or that I’m brainwashed. Which is funny to me because I hate the establishment Dems. I just think posts saying both suck and attacking the Dems aren’t helpful because they currently have no power. The other party is causing a lot of damage and there seems to be no stopping them so kicking the feckless Dems when they’re down seems weird to me.

I also think the democratic party needs to be ousted by progressive candidates that have a good vision for the future. I’m not gonna lie though I don’t see it happening. The establishment Dems aren’t gonna bow down. Also, I see so many protests happening and although AOC and Bernie have made the news I don’t think I see the Dem leadership taking advantage of this and putting up a solid front either, like wtf is going on? I’m not sure it’s the coverage but it really seems like they’re lost.

lazygit is pretty cool too.

You’re free to be wrong.

As are you.

Have a pleasant day! (no sarcasm)

I agree I think it’s fucking horrible and I think Chuck Schumer and everyone on any side of the political aisle that upheld this should be in a jail cell too.

Are you having a stroke? I don’t follow your point and/or syntax.

I was making reference to this.

Wait. If how can there be any “nuance” if you can’t compare the two parties? Is a comparison of apples with oranges flawed because of the “nuance”?

I never said you can’t compare. I’m saying this comparison is devoid of any content. The establishment dems suck for many reasons. None of which you can find here.

You can have your own interpretation but don’t assume that this was OP’s intent.

I think I will.

[edit] the point that everyone is emphasizing is the Republicans is setting the US on fire. The Dems have put on rallies to stop it. The posts that are saying “both sides” are just insane to me, but whatever. [/edit]

Two parties in a two party system is no case of “apples and oranges”. That’s as close to a fair comuarison as yo’'re gonna get

stroke much?

seriously, this isn’t a “fair comparison” because it doesn’t address any sort of nuance nor is it supposed to. It’s supposed to make people go: “yeah the dems suck too” rather than understand anything about what’s going on.

If you claim to be on the same page then whatever, we can just agree on our core points leave it at that.

Nobody said the Dems were perfect OR not bad through the chain.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_equivalence - is what this post is.

I can’t deal with US politics right now and this thread.

I’m fucking Canadian and people upvoting this both sides nonsense is getting my blood boiling.

I thought this enlightened centrist shit was over with but people are bringing it up like they’re some next-level IQ genius. When in reality they’re trying their to push people to the right (whether they understand it or not).

What are you talking about the initial argument is completely insane to be begin with. I think Biden came into office and reduce child poverty or hunger or something by half as his first action.

We’re gonna compare that to Trump destroying the economy, removing due process, open up national parks to logging, letting DOGE cut departments with corruption, invading other countries?

Correct, but still not even close to the same thing. More of this “balanced” stuff.

Anywho on the plus side, he’s getting wrecked in the polls vs AOC who’s looking to take his place though.

I wonder what you guys expect out of your politicians. They’re not supposed to be heroes.

Also, the fact that these come up now and are bringing up how unimpressive the Dems are are strange to me when mango Mussolini are causing havoc.

Were people deifying Obama like Trump? It seemed like most people were upset with him most of the time.

Because our King can never be truly replaced. ✊
