Reactive cancellation is a bandaid. The most effective long-term intervention is structural reallocation.

Im still v new to PCB design so I can’t speak to ease of use but industry pals have been saying that a combo of CERN funding it for the past few years has dramatically improved it + Altium’s new owners doubling the price per/seat have made it way more compelling for schools and small companies.

From one PE to another! Seems like things started to really tank after the first sale to PE a few years ago - they lost a ton of senior engineering and product people and just never replaced them

An absolute legend whose music w/ Robbie is woven deep into my memories, my love of reggae, my taste in drumming, and my deepest appreciation for what music can and could be. RIP. May his memory be a blessing πŸ–€

In 1953, B.F. Skinner β€” best known for changing the field of psychology forever by
mindfucking a bunch of hapless pigeons β€” described "the pathological gambler" as
"the victim of an unpredictable contingency of reinforcement," akin to a pigeon contorting itself endlessly in the hopes of receiving unpredictable rewards.
There is an argument made by some economists and Nate Silver that prediction markets are useful ways of telling the future because they let you know what smart people are willing to wager on. But these economists (pigeons) and Nate Silver (also a pigeon) haven't accounted for the obvious: Being smart means getting treatment for your gambling addiction, not figuring out fun new ways to bet.

As of this writing, there is now a Polymarket bet on whether the US will make another strike on Venezuela, as well as "US strike on Colombia by..?" and "Will Trump acquire Greenland before 2027?"
While it is a little funny to imagine the heads of various intelligence services monitoring outlier bets on Kalshi and Polymarket to find out whether the Trump administration really plans to invade Greenland, it also suggests that America's political apparatus is riddled with gambling-addled Kim Philbys. People have been leaking secrets on War Thunder forums for online cred for years now. What happens when there's real money at stake?

The automated sexual abuse that Musk is doing right now should be national news. People should be going to prison for this shit. The logical conclusion to generative image creation and the internet, pure public automatic violence. Every Pizzagate fear just out in the open.

I can’t get over the fact that behringer interfaces are linux class compliant out of the box but so many of the β€œpremium” manufacturers just don’t support it despite being windows and apple class compliant
