I find it important that he writes, that freedom of individuals and markets is important because it is without coercion.

To then go on and write that he tried to coerce his editor to accept the change with a "hell yes" or basically resign. This is coercion. Doesn't he see this? Is the irony lost on him?

Breath of Fire 3

A classical JRPG. I still like it quite a lot.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (you need a gog.com version) together with the VCMI. If you like heroes 3, this is a great option. Some elements are rather small on my fairphone 4 phone.

tj devries had a similar take quite recently: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pmtuMJDjh5A&pp=ygUKdGogZGV2cmllcw%3D%3D

Pivot to AI is similar to web3 is going great. You could also look into Ed Zitron's articles: https://www.wheresyoured.at/ however they are pretty rant-like but do also contain a lot of further links.

You could try Heroes of Might and Magic 3 on an Android Phone with VCMI App installed. Requires that you purchase Heroes 3 from gog.com. Runs pretty well, but there are some elements that are pretty small. Ideally you are familiar with the game or similar games because it has some complexity.

I believe so. He at least promises more system breaking in his unique way. I believe he will do what he said on the campaign including implementing project 2025 ideas.

But the people who voted for him, believe he will improve their situation, even if it means that it will get harder for them in the near term. I believe things won't improve for these people.

I think that for many of his voters, the system doesn't work anymore for them. So they want it to change and they only see this change possible with Trump and Vance. Very sad.

Out of interest, do you have any sources that what he does is not reliable? This is not some kind of I'm pissed off about your comnent, I'm actually not. Having said that, I see tgis as an opportunity to learn about Harris' shortcomings. Thanks in advance.

According to Johnny Harris (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WYQxG4KEzvo) he does go into the details, according to Johnny's sources. I can't stand Elon as well, but I'm no longer sure if he's just an investor.

I think they are voting for him because of the things they believe he is or stands for. Let's assume some people cherish kindness, then these people believe he is kind even if he's obviously not. They want to believe.

They are analogously not voting for Harris out of what they believe she stands for: destroying their values, installing communism, surrendering to the Soviet Union, all on day one. Because they want to believe.

I think this is a good example that free speech is not free consequences. The question is who carries the consequences. My guess is the two girls that may get mobbed at least until they graduate, maybe even longer.

Btw, I am pro free-speech, I just find it kind of sad that more often than not the consequences of free speech from people like Ted Cruz hit the people he's speaking about.

You're right. Tge AfD won the most seats in Thuringia. History rhymes. I guess one important factor is cognitive dissonance. I understand that people are unhappy with current politics for multiple reasons and I think some want to believe the propaganda in tge hopes that things will get better but knowing deep in themselves that these demagogues don't promote any policies that will actually help them. At least I hope so.

I'm from Germany, which means that we learned an re-iterated the history around the crumbling of Democracy in the Weimar Republic and the rise of the 3rd Reich in school, in several different subjects.

And now, more than 20 years since I graduated, I still don't understand how people could vote for Hitler with his rhetoric and his hatefulness. I sit here and can't believe that Donald Trump has realistic chances to win, and he will get votes from people who should know better and not only the votes from obvious Nazis. It's depressing.

As far as I understood, the robot taxis may start production by 2026 or 2027. Shouldn't we live all on Mars by then, according to Musk?

Additionally, if AI actually gives us this answer, tge answer we have already now, will we as a global society actualky implement it, because it sounds inconvenient (at least for some) or will we say, hey the AI seems to have made a mistake.

What are your goals?

If you want to learn another language just for the fun of it (the best reason) than learn both.

Of you want to improve your tool set to be able to land a job, then there is no good answer. Probably some other high level language like Python, Java, JavaScript, C#. Etc.

Also: Zig bay be easier to get started when coming from C, because it is mostly imperative.

Rust introduces concepts from functional programming. This could be interesting for you, of you don't have any experience in functional programming to get in touch with other programming styles. Or not, of you explicitly don't want to learn such things.

I use both languages, and I enjoy both. Shameless plug: I've written a blog post ~ 2 years ago what I like about each language: https://zigurust.gitlab.io/blog/posts/three-things/

Besides streaming, i.e. the capability to watch the movies and series when you want and how much you want, and lowering the entry to produce videos for more people, they pretty much reinvented cable. Or did I miss something substantial?
