Ah, the replacement mythos, blended with White Fascism and Christian Nationalist chaser. All badness all the way down.
It sounds like Twitter is hosting their services on several cloud platforms or replication services that weren't blocked by Brazil. So, users in Brazil just hit the 3rd party platforms and kept going like usual.
Is that Twitter's fault and/or on purpose? Don't know yet, but services like Akamai need to make sure their hosting Twitter doesn't get them banned in Brazil across the board.
International relations are often tough to build, especially when one side is quite rude and then wanting special benefits afterwards.
The UK cut the ties, so the EU has more say in how relations are rebuilt. The UK had a ton of special exemptions and their own national identity in the EU then many other members and the UK still freaked out about how oppressed they were.
The EU doesn't really owe the UK anything that's not in still existing agreements and if the UK wants a relationship they'll have to come to the table bringing something, not just hurling demands.
I'm just really glad that the UK leaving the EU didn't devolve into armed conflict. That's a pretty normal arc for such a big relations change.
Who would have guessed that she's corrupt? Strange that she's acting just like her right wing anti-Constitution bosses on the Supreme Court. I wonder how that kind of corruption trickles down.
The right has been trying to destroy schools since they were founded hundreds of years ago. Secular, public education is an anathema to the racist and religious indoctrination required to maintain right wing communities.
This is very much a two birds, one stone moment for their agenda.
The summary that I liked from the last post was "python is the second best language for everything". There's always something specialized and better for every given job. But, if you want one tool that'll do a solid job everywhere, python is your go to.
Plus the estimated million+ who smartly fled Russia in the first year of the war.
- Women get educated
- Women get their own money
- Women get control over reproductive rights and tools
So much of our world is based around women keeping it on the rails without receiving credit for their efforts.
If the government financial trams aren't already investigating it, then they're stupid. This is shooting fish in a barrel for financial crimes.
We're entering the 'blockchain for every need' stage. Expect massive money to flow into scams, poor ideas, and outright dangerous uses for a few years .
Before Blockchain we had 'the web' itself in the dot com era. Before that? I saw it in basic computing as a solution to everything.
I had a student came into office hours asking why their program got a bad grade. I looked and it didn't actually do anything related to the assignment.
Upon further query, they objected saying that the CI pipeline built it just fine.
So ..yeah... You can write a program that builds and runs, but doesn't do the required tasks, which makes it wrong. This was not a concept they'd figured out yet.
With varying degrees of regret. Some cities named to keep the right of ways, so rebuilding is more reasonable, others gave/sold it off and now they're double plus fucked.
Most of the pre-1950's trams were private, and not city run. The cities that took them over and kept them running are looking really smart at this point.
My city is about as smart as a box of rocks.
