> Nothing this administration ever does is planned.
You are joking, right? Project 2025 has achieved 50% of its goals in record time[0]. Trump disavowed both it and invading Iran, but make no mistake. Both were “the plan”.
"this administration" is not running the show. This is going exactly according to someone else's plan.
After the dust settles:
- GCC is knocked down a few notches and that oil and gas money is no longer competing for influence
- US is out of MENA and Centcom will return to Florida; there is no way Arab governments will let US rebuild its bases in their countries. See burning infrastructure, airports, and decimated trade in tourism, air travel, hitech, ... You thought the Orange One thought up the idea of burning all our aliances, pissing off Europe, alarming Asia allies, and making "fortress America" all by his lonesome? Really?
- Israel will be lording it over the area. Maybe they will start having bases on Arab lands.
- China will be at the mercy of whoever now controls Middle East
- Project 2025 is really about controlling us natives here in America when the coin finally (dear lord) drops over here.
Most of the smaller, walkable places that are not car dependent do not allow that Prop 13 transfer, because it's mostly rental places.
Condo defect law is far far more onerous than defect law for single family homes, to the point that it doesn't make sense to offer units for sale. There are those working on reform but it's a slow process.
I have see it happen with older friends: they could move to a smaller place that's more appropriate but they'd had to pay a ton more.
The Prop 13 distortion on the market is very extreme. Perhaps even more so than the super low pandemic interest rates compared to today's interest rates.
I fully agree. Claude’s review comments have been 50% useful, which is great. For comparison I have almost never found a useful TeamScale comment (classic static analyzer). Even more important, half of Claude’s good finds are orthogonal to those found by other human reviewers on our team. I.e. it points out things human reviewers miss consistently and v.v.
TBH that sounds like TeamScale just has too verbose default settings. On the other hand, people generally find almost all of the lints in Clippy's [1] default set useful, but if you enable "pedantic" lints, the signal-to-noise ratio starts getting worse – those generally require a more fine-grained setup, disabling and enabling individual lints to suit your needs.
I did not know it was SQLite, thx for noting. That gives the idea to make an MCP server or Skill or classical script which can slurp those and make a PROMPTS.md or answer other questions via SQL. Will try that this week.
For this model to be convincing, you would need to explain the motivation for the pension funds loaning the 90% that then goes to zero. They are repeat investors after all. As are the PE firms.
Are they getting kickbacks? That would be straight up illegal, but it would make the most sense.
The machine (AirSense 11) has been a god send for me. I can’t believe I waited so long. I haven’t slept a night without it since my first. I haven’t had to tweak any settings. It’s just worked. Sure it’s annoying to travel with, and you look odd while wearing it, but deep sleep is so worth it.
It’s a bit clickbait-y, but the article is short, to the point, and frankly satisfying. If there is such a thing as good clickbait, then this might be it. Impressive work!
The topic of the Rust experiment was just discussed at the annual Maintainers Summit. The consensus among the assembled developers is that Rust in the kernel is no longer experimental — it is now a core part of the kernel and is here to stay. So the "experimental" tag will be coming off. Congratulations are in order for all of the Rust-for-Linux team.
Perhaps, except it can have the reverse effect. I was surprised, disappointed, and then almost moved on without clicking the link or the discussion. I'm glad I clicked. But good titles don't mislead! (To be fair, this one didn't mislead, but it was confusing at best.)
