To any non-js dev taking this too seriously: A good half of the technologies mentioned in this meme are redundant, you only need to learn

how to stay the fuck away from webdev

(in addition to the language).

See context

I think the joke is your public transport.

Oh wow, Big QWERTY here, taking a jab at Big Staggered.

Ah. Haven't thought of that, you're right.

Fix your detector.

I'm sorry, but this is the vanilla trolley problem. Save all but one or avoid going to jail.

When autonomous cars are good enough to just drive people around

they become autonomous cars. It's not autopilot if I'm liable, simple as that.

Hate to rain on your parade, but it's not like they missed a Shift for a magical language-switch-while-pressed. Mistyping it that way is non-trivial because default language switching is non-trivial.

Syncthing, a peer to peer file synchronize that basically everyone needs, they just don't know it.

[being in US is hard]

[then don't]

many in the US can hardly do anything but work

Whatever, you weren't listening anyway.

US citizens have the most powerful passport in the world and a cost of living that makes overseas travel profitable. There's no goalposts moving here. Paying a shitton of extortion money for a privilege of not paying the overblown price might be a decision to make might be a dexision they consciously make, but that's not my point. My point is, this medicine does not cost nearly as much, and the only reason >$1000 numbers are thrown around is that nobody in their sound mind pays them. If you're willing to embark on side-discussions, I'm willing to entertain you, just stop bringing up your movable goalposts.

Lastly, the whole point is how in the US quality insurance IS a privilege

Having rights of a US citizen is a privilege. Living in US while having rights of a US citizen is a privilege on top of a privilege. But one doesn't have to. That's absolutely a choice. Repeat after me. An Afghan person with nearly no rights and a cost of ticket to US exceeding their life-long salary doesn't move to US because it's a privilege. But for a US hobo, whose monthly expenses far exceeding a ticket to a sane country they're "magically" already allowed to enter anytime they want, staying in US is a choice. Don't even try to twist that into a privilege. Time and flexibility, my ass. US citizens spawn with a golden ticket and a knob to dial life difficulty to "easy". If they stay in US past their healthy young prime, that's on them.

Off-topic? Goalposts? Misinformation?

Now that you've named specific drugs, it's awfully easy to show how US is just a scam: https://www.statista.com/statistics/312014/average-price-of-humira-by-country

The difference between US and the runner-up is worth not just two plane tickets, but a lavish vacation. Just accept it, you're being had and it never crossed your mind to do the reasonable thing.

What part of my comment lead you to believe I was referring to anyone who was able to subvert the customer model?

A plane ticket out of the scam country and back is a pathetic fraction of the "thousands dollars cash per dose" you invoked.

How does it look like in a proper 80x25?

Each dose is thousands of dollars cash.

LOL, it's because it's not, simple as that.

Hope you're joking, because this is not how any of this works.

Makes perfect sense. More AI means less matter and more energy.
