Yeah, fuck Cuomo, but a lot of the reasons for New York’s poor performance at the start of COVID were structural issues that were out of his control.

So why not have a trial? Or follow the current established extradition process?

He kind of already has.

I thought it was 👊🇺🇸🔥?

He could be right about this.

Best case is that this only triggers a selloff of federal debt, which means that Republicans get trapped having to balance the budget.

At worst for him, he’s one of the first up against the wall when the revolution hits.

Yeah, I wouldn’t consider this a sign of recession. Instead, it is the confluence of various structural changes in the industry.

1. Because the industry was forced to work in a distributed manner, it has removed the location premium in a lot of salaries. Companies are firing high cost of living areas and hiring in lower cost of living areas.

2. Outside of cost of living, total supply for developers has increased significantly.

3. The return on investment for software development has either dropped or are starting to be included in more decisions. This is leading to development budgets getting slashed.

Well, if you don’t need programmers to work in place place at the corporate headquarters, you can hire them anywhere.

China’s economy was very affected by Covid and the growth of China’s economy has been projected to slow as China can’t rely on its construction sector to continue to supply growth.

That said, China has been preparing for some form of trade war with the USA for a while, so they probably have something planned for this and can now blame any lack of growth on the USA to its citizens.

And it was a Republican idea to let Americans buy from Canada.

But he has money so he is just eccentric.

The problem seems to come from over obsessed mothers, who are probably on the spectrum themselves, trying to explain why their kids are weird in a way that doesn’t blame them.

Nah. The Hoover administration wasn’t intentionally trying to crash the economy.

The problem is that you’re going to take the US back to the early 20th century, where there was a very large disparity in quality of life within the country. If these cuts are maintained, I won’t be surprised if some of the poorest American states become poorer than some Mexican states.

I feel like Silicon Valley got trapped between two parties. On one side, Democrats were actively discussing increased regulations and antitrust litigation. On the other side, Republicans were going to accept free reign as long as they got support on “other policies”.

It turns out the “other policies” included significantly reducing their customer base.

I think there is a bit of a difference.

Millennials have had to deal with a near constant shitty job market, constantly having to do more for less.

What they’re describing for Gen X is that a part of the economy has completely disappeared at a time when they should be high earners. The combination of lower cost digital media and an international labor pool means entire professions and trades have been wiped out.

And it isn’t good for them if stock growth doesn’t happen because American companies lose market share.

It is probably likely that Stellantis sources from all three countries, so Canadian and Mexican built cars would also be hit by tarrifs.

That’s what I’m expecting. They aren’t going to fix what Musk broke and they are going ahead with tarrifs, which wasn’t Musk led.

She isn’t banned from running because she is fascist, but because she is corrupt.

I feel like part of the problem is that management wants staff that can do a wide range of tasks when it ends up creating a staff that can’t specialize in a small group of tasks.

I’ve seen plenty of times where people can operate well as a cog on a big machine, but fall apart when they have to work in roles that require a variety of skillsets. Larger engineering companies can typically create enough work for people to specialize in smaller tasks than smaller engineering companies.

My money is on Irish unification.
