Package managers keep using git as a database, it never works out.

I love the llm defense squad in that .NET thread defending its energy use, by sourcing some random tech guy's substack, as opposed to, you know, peer reviewed research

this comment hits the nail on the head, whataboutism wrt meat consumption or other producers of CO2 is not productive, particularly when one feeds people and the other just shits out bad code.

I have also finally implemented railways traveling in two directions, no more single rail, finally!

Vehicles will stop automatically to yield to other vehicles. There won't be micromanagement of intersections and traffic, so you can focus on growing the city and making your citizens happy.

Nothing says "rebel" like a corporation hiring a consulting company to conduct a user survey to determine if the new design enables brands using it to appear sufficiently more "rebellious" than the previous design language.

Irony is dead.

Yes, It Is Just Like The Nazis
Hey so remember Anne Frank? The Jewish young girl who hid in an attic and was killed by the Nazis? The emblematic person we think of when we think of victims of the Holocaust?

She did not die in a gas chamber or in a death camp. She died in a temporary' detention center for the mass deportations which preceded the death camps.
She was in that camp because a patriotic neighbor ratted her out to the German deportation force. She died, not of a bullet to the back of the head or choking on gas, but of typhus. She contracted typhus because the Nazis couldn't realistically deport people at the rate they wanted to, because before the death camps their infrastructure couldn't handle the sudden influx of ethnic minorities they had decided to imprison, and because they didn't care about the consequences of that so their deportation detention centers were unhygienic and prisoners were underfed and overcrowded.

And she was picked up by the deportation force not because she was an illegal citizen but because, just like the US is doing with asylum seekers, she was part of a formerly recognized class of citizens who were legally redefined to lack citizenship by a new administration.

Anne Frank is exactly like the children who have already died in the United State's detention camps. Exactly. Down to the very last detail. There. Is. Not. A.
Single. Difference.

So unless you want to fucking tell me that Anne goddamn Frank was not a victim of the Holocaust, y'all can shut the fuck up with that "stop making concentration camp comparisons, you're diminishing the suffering of the Holocaust" bullshit.

Its also worth noting that her family TRIED to flee to the US and was denied. She was in that camp partly because the US refused to let her refugee family immigrate.
