Does COSMIC's design suck or is it in pre-alpha?

Lapce, an IDE written in Rust. It's nice and light compared to most IDE's, so I use it a bit on my aging laptop from 2015. However, it doesn't have the extension ecosystem or polish of my favored IDE, VS Code.

Just take the dive into fish. It used to have a lot of problems with incompatibilities, but that's been less of a problem lately.

I haven't found nushell to be that great as a day-to-day shell simply because it integrates poorly with other Linux commands. But when it comes to data manipulation, it is simply amazing. I'm currently (slowly) working on a plugin to query LDAP. The ldapsearch command uses the LDIF format, which is hard to parse reliably. Producing nushell data structures that don't need fragile parsing would be a boon.

Yup, a late friend of mine was a lobbyist at the state level for a mental health lobbying group. His daughter has schizophrenia and that was his way to give back in his retirement. Without lobbying, it's hard for politicians to know when there is a problem they need to fix. They have a small staff and they don't just magically know when there is a problem. The problem is when a politician either can't sniff out unethical lobbyists or just doesn't care.

marijuana arrests

Arrests are done by the police, not the DA, so that issue lies with the police. And as much of the rest of the article pointed out, the number of people who saw the inside of a prison cell for marijuana possession was small.

Here's a fact check that goes over her history as a prosecutor. Hint: it doesn't fit well into a single reductive sentence.

No, they were harassing them just for being friendly with the West. Exiting the Russian sphere of influence, not joining NATO, was the cardinal sin.

Did you miss the bit where Russia kept harassing Georgia? It was going to invade sooner or later. Russia likes its former imperial conquests to be kept under its thumb.

The August 2008 invasion of Georgia was just the culmination of years of Russian provocations towards Georgia. Georgia's leaders knew Russia was itching for a fight. As for Ukraine, many Ukrainians realized that if they ever adopted a more pro-Western stance then Russia would invade. I've heard one account of Ukrainians fighting in the Georgia-Russia War because "we're next."

They could have waited or tried to make a deal with the new government. They did neither and immediately invaded without making an attempt at an arrangement.

Why did Russia invade Georgia?

Are you trying to get me to say NATO? Because that conflict far predates NATO involvement.

Bullshit. Crimea was invaded mere days after the change of power in 2014, far before anyone of note was seriously talking about Ukraine joining NATO. Support for separatists elsewhere soon followed. It was about Russia exerting a "sphere of influence" that it felt entitled to. The Russian leadership can't seem to get that countries are joining NATO because of Russian imperialism, past and present.

I'm going to say the same thing that I said about the Polish incident. That incident only happened because Russia chose to attack Ukraine in an area directly bordering on another country. Izmail is also right across the border. I'll wait on more dependable sources for an investigation, and I'm certainly not agitating for an escalation on NATO's side. At the same time, if Russia's bombing campaign ultimately results in foreseeable casualties outside of the country, I put the blame on Russia. Ukraine has the right to defend itself.

Mostly FOSS locally, but I rely on some proprietary software where there are gaps in the FOSS ecosystem.

Pretty much anything that substantially improves batteries will be huge. R & D money is pouring in and that likely means progress. Improvements could be felt in factors like environmental impact, weight, energy density, safety, and charge time.

Elon Musk's X pushes Trump tags on all US users

If you look at Hillary's broader statements, she has always favored universal single-payer healthcare. She worked her ass off to get a plan passed in 1994, and she was relentlessly attacked for it.

The last time Democrats got successful movement on healthcare was March 2010 with a filibuster proof Democratic majority in the Senate, a majority in the House, and a popular new president in the White House. Even then, only a relatively tepid compromise bill was passed, with even the "public option" stripped out (thanks Joe Lieberman).

Will conditions change in the future? Quite possibly, especially as our health care becomes increasingly unaffordable. Maybe it's not so helpful to have senior politicians telling voters something is impossible and potentially affecting the Overton Window. But Hillary's warning, that Bernie Sanders' plan hadn't a chance of getting passed, was a good reality check.

Biden supported a 1994 crime bill that is considered racist today.

Some context is required there, though. The 1994 crime bill did have significant support among Black leaders and activists. It was seen as an imperfect solution to a critical issue that disproportionately affected Black neighborhoods at the time.

Donald Trump calls for Taiwan to ‘pay’ for its own defence

Hong Kong was always going to happen because that was an agreed upon conclusion. China violated promises that it made (one country, two systems my ass), but Hong Kong was a part China. Taiwan has never been under the control of the current government of mainland China. At this point Taiwan would likely be a separate country if it didn't have China's dagger at its throat telling it that even a breath of declaring independence will result in immediate invasion.

No place for political violence in America!!!

The president is a civilian and other decisions ultimately lie in civilian hands. While it's common for presidents to have some level of service in some form of armed forces, it's usually low ranking. There are some notable exceptions: Washington, Eisenhower, and Grant. So yes, killing them is political violence. But targeting leaders in the armed forces is not.

And yes, Iran fought ISIS, a lot of players held common cause against ISIS. Cool. Doesn't excuse what they've done elsewhere.
