All it took was ramping up our exploitation of the third world to artificially keep lithium prices down lol
Can't wait until the e-waste crisis also stops being ignored. Average lifespan of a solar panel is ~25 years and there's basically 0 solutions for recycling them (except for this one plant in France I guess). Knowing the US, I doubt we'll have anything figured out before it's too late again
Same exact comment holds for Russia. Crimea was 8 years ago and they've lost a lot of troops and equipment
Wow this is really good advice, thanks so much! I'll definitely make use of those resources. I think the biggest thing for me when picking up a new tech/language is finding the right hobby project to spend too much time on haha
This isn't really accurate though. It's pretty clear this is a proxy war for the US to weaken Russia. NATO has made major expansions in Europe at least 3 times in the past two decades and each time it's been denounced by basically the whole world. Putin might lie to his own people but on the foreign stage he's been completely honest the entire time. I won't go as far as to say "he had no other choice" but I do think it's important to highlight the fact that Biden has publicly discussed the plan to "weaken" Russia.
Zelenskyy ran on a platform to make peace with Russia and they were literally in peace talks about to finalize a plan. It was NATO that went in and disrupted that
I'm not trying to defend Putin by any means, but I just think the framing of "it was Russia that chose to go to war" is painting an overly simplistic picture
How did you get into Clojure? I've been thinking of picking it up
The US has been the key to the rapid training of the Ukrainians. As much as the US military is a bit of a paper tiger, it's still got a ton of resources and preparedness for things like this
I think they're agreeing with you
I think you're kinda misinterpretting it though. It's a not a "strike" in the true sense of the word. I helped organize these events for a while after that first major global climate strike a few years ago. The main thing we realized that came out of it is bringing together many different orgs. And especially to get people who are otherwise allies but not really involved in organizing to actually start organizing.
Maybe if we do this enough we'll eventually have something organized enough to have a true strike, but until then I think events like these are quite necessary
Capitalism as such is only a system for the fair exchange of goods and services
No... that's just a market lol. Capitalism is the ideological belief that those who have wealth are good at turning that wealth into "capital" (which is just wealth that makes more wealth). So the result of this belief is the idea that we should give those who are wealthy more wealth so that they can continue to generate more wealth in total. Rising tides lift all boats type of thing.
Capitalism isn't just a system. It's an ideology that even modern economics has disproven
Is it not available to you? It shows up for me. If not, just use sci-hub
I've used copilot for more than a single line of code about twice in the past year. IMO people are just using it wrong and I can never relate to these posts. For me, it's an advanced auto-complete and saves me a ton of time. I couldn't imagine allowing it to generate a whole function for you. Using just one line at a time allows you to make sure you fully understand everything it has generated. I've never "forgotten how my code works"
Still though, would definitely like to see an open-source effort towards cracking this nut. There's some longstanding projects that are Python-specific, but nothing like CoPilot
Maybe it was actually the green party
