Actix-Web was one of the original web frameworks and is still very popular and well supported. That said, it's in the process of being replaced by Axum which is by the people who created Tokio (the async framework underlying both Actix-Web and Axum). Axum is fairly well supported now, although maybe not quite as complete as Actix-Web.
Unless something has gone very wrong each election will be the most in American history. It's for the same reason slight positive inflation is desirable, the population is always increasing. The important metric isn't absolute count of votes, but the percentage of votes.
Not that it will matter, the orange moron is going to do everything he can to gut the FTC. Unless they're going to do something in the next month they might as well just start wrapping things up now.
If you don't have at least $10 million in liquid assets then you aren't rich. In a less fucked up timeline what this article is calling rich would have been qualified as middle class. They're just trying to shift the definitions to hide how out of control income inequality has gotten and how rampant poverty is becoming. With the current market prices, nevermind the absolute shit show it's about to become, an income of less than $50k should be considered below the poverty line.
While the Electoral College did not directly factor into this election it could have indirectly factored in due to minority voters in solidly controlled states simply deciding not to vote due to their votes having no impact on the outcome. If for instance you were a Democrat in a state that Republicans have won by double digit percentages for the last couple decades you might rightly assume that whether you vote or not the outcome remains unchanged.
If we had a straight popular vote rather than the EC then literally every vote would count, unlike the current system where that's only true in battleground states. In this case the EC is just another in a long list of voter suppression tools.
Got a fucking great deal on my current house following the sub prime fiasco and I was planning on upgrading soon. Guess I'll have plenty of choices to pick from soon.
Pretty sure the overwhelming majority of people that own landlines don't have a single clue how they work. Phreakimg is nearly lost knowledge at this point.
The process must have slowed down considerably. About two decades ago I had a security clearance (just a basic one for access to some military bases for contract work) and that process, although the paperwork was a nightmare, got cleared in under 2 months. I'm sure a higher level of access takes longer, but equally someone being vetted for one of the highest offices in the world is certainly going to be a higher priority than some military contractor pleb.
The root of the issue is that the difference between the government and the major corporations is mostly academic at this point. They're trying to setup a fascist state except the role of the government is filled by the incestuous merger of politicians and corporate executives. Outside of that one difference it's absolutely fascism.
They did their part, but unfortunately Harris and the DNC failed to do theirs. All she had to do was toss out some left wing policies and instead she went all in on right wing policies. How many losses is it going to take before the DNC gets it through their heads that they're not going to be able to steal conservative votes from the Republicans.
India is just like anywhere else, you get what you pay for. There's plenty of cheap dogshit contractors there but there's also some pretty good "expensive" ones. I say "expensive" because they're still cheaper than domestic, just a lot more than the cheap ones.
The interesting bit though is that the end state of all this outsourcing is an inversion. As US companies pour more and more money into foreign contractors the quality of those contractors steadily increases which then drives their prices up. Concurrently with that as the domestic market languishes and skills atrophy domestic prices fall. Eventually the US will find itself as the cheap 3rd world country the other countries are outsourcing to. That assumes of course other countries are as blindingly short sighted and stupid as the US. The more likely scenario is that those countries enact subsidies, tariffs, and tax breaks to protect their domestic markets in which case the US doesn't become the hot outsourcing market and instead just continues to fade into irrelevancy.
Considering he was claiming to be the captain and trying to get off the plane it seems highly likely he was having some kind of mental breakdown. He needs proper medical care and a psychological evaluation, not summary execution. Yes he was a danger to himself and others, but that doesn't mean he's guilty of attempted murder. A padded room might be appropriate depending on the psych evaluation, but wishing suffering on him without knowing the full situation is too much.
The way they've all reacted to climate change denialism by actively trying to make pollution as bad as possible is wild. Even if the entire world's scientific community was somehow wrong about global warming, shit like this and "rolling coal" would still be terrible for air quality, but these fucknuts apparently don't care as long as they get to "own the libs". This is peak "eating a shit sandwich to force other people to smell your breath" energy.
He's going to follow the same plan as he did for COVID. He'll remove all regulations and then attack anyone trying to measure the impact. Might even make it illegal to report on pollution if he can.
