  • secrecy orders have been imposed not only on inventions affecting military defense but also on those alleged to threaten economic stability, with critics noting that many such restrictions rest on speculative or unproven harms.

    But also

    The law applies broadly to all inventions in the United States for which a patent is filed or granted (35 U.S.C. § 181).

    So if you really do have a society changing invention - one that could upset this capitalist or neoliberal world order - it is your duty to publically release it and not patent it

  • Is there an article giving context and outcome of that picture?

  • Congratulations! To have a home secured with no debt is a lifetime goal few attain in this current cruel world!

  • I was so excited to come across a new word, oripilated, its got good word potential

    But upon searching, i became oripilated that there was no definition or existence of this word :(

  • The toilet's right next to a low window...

  • The sigh of relief that at least the Netherlands hadn't fallen to the far right

  • But with different levels of quality control and potentially ingredients - not trying to dimmenish white labels, they serve a role, but its always been absurd to me that just because something is made in the same factory that those products are identical - a few items might be - but you can taste white label and brand name side by side and they taste different even if they have the same manufacturing marks and have different failure rates (and sometimes the white label even tastes better!)

  • Well today i learned, hitler was nominated for a nobel peace prize in 1939, but it was more a tongue in cheeck nomination

    https://www.nobelpeacecenter.org/en/news/hitler-as-a-nobel-laureate

    The nomination of Chamberlain provoked him to nominate Hitler as a provocation against Hitler and Nazism. The result of the Munich Agreement was that the western powers stabbed Czechoslovakia in the back by handing over Sudetenland to achieve peace

    But the irony was lost on people, ans the nomination was withdrawn at the last moment, ans regardless no peace prize was ever awarded for 1939 due to ww2 breaking out

  • Huh, well, i do indeed like frogs

  • ~2% of the US population - getting closer to the famed 3.5%

  • Is it odd that trans is separated from the lgbt rainbow?

    There is no lgbt without trans people and the separation made, while good for trans visibility, is unsettling with the added context of the psyops to separate gender and sexuality unity

  • Hard assets make a lot of sense when paper assets do not.

    Real estate and precious metals are the traditional hard assets. The stock market can implode, but a home will remain a home, an acre will remain an acre, an ounce will remain an ounce.

    There are difficulties and risks and efforts required with hard assets, theres a reason why soft assets developed, but when things go wrong people trust what they can hold and walk on - and thus seek real estate and precious metals as they are certain and tangible.

    With a little more trust in the system, there are softer assets available such as bonds, specifically treasury bonds, and there are etfs that attempt to exclude the ai bubble such as XMAG, or the sp500 but equally distributed instead of by market cap which increases diversity like RSP to reduce the fallout of the ai bubble pop

    Theres a million ways to navigate a bubble, do the research and find confidence in your plan, and think about how you'll react in various scenarios, especially when the numbers go down or arent going as high as expected

  • Well yeah? Thats the point, to be put on a list, to be made aware of news from the source of a general strike

    Yes it is an operation, yes it is a list - thats exactly why you'd sign up though, and accepting the risk that like any list, it could be exposed

    The alternative would be to either miss relavent news, or hear from it from secondary (potentially corrupted) sources, or go through the effort of regularly checking the site unprompted

  • MooOO!

  • We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless ― if the left allows it to be

  • Destroy abstractions

    The reality is, if you have an abstraction layer and one implementation of it, you dont need that abstraction layer

    People will complain, "oh but think about the refactor if we have to change vendors/etc" but i have yet to ever switch vendors/api/etc and not had to completely rethink the abstraction layer

    Just get rid of it, it will be easier, less code, more precise, and in the long run you'll cargo cult less

    Just write the code for the things you have, and if things change, yup then things will change - to anticipate future changes and upfront the work for the unknown only to then have to make more changes once those real changes eventually arrive and dont match your old predictions is just more work and more confusion

  • Hey Poppa Mo, I feel sorry for you. No well person says these kinds of things.

    The world is hard and harsh right now, you add to that currently, i think as a projection of your own internal stress.

    I hope things start improving for you, and that you stop unleashing your negativity into the world.

    You may find that by switching the order, and not projecting so much negativity that things do get better.
