I think Java fits the bill exactly for a quietly known language, used in a lot of web services, with a diverse ecosystem.

To be clear I didn’t mean the rhetoric makes it likely, I mean an attack on Canada makes it likely. I think and hope that the rhetoric is market manipulation, and largely empty.

Whether that changes your opinion, idk.

What I mean is that the constant flippant “he can do what he wants” supports him now in the same way the confident “we’re safe because what he suggested is illegal.” if Trump was really that powerful the judges that would rule against him wouldn’t have the chance.

Things are bad, but acting like it’s already over literally strengthens the fascists.

You don’t need to support him, you know.

It’s going to hurt all the people. I think they’re underestimating both how secure their wealth will make them from Trump, and the backlash they’ll face as the dust clears. Their complicity will be treated harshly if this ends.

Trump is really ramping up the rhetoric on a Canadian/American war. I think such a thing makes an immediate civil war very likely.

I still think he doesn’t intend a Canadian/American war. I think the dual purposes are manipulating markets as part of pumping and dumping stocks for the oligarchs, and promoting instability in the West for Putin. But a Canadian/American war would be a ton of instability in the West, so maybe

46 percent of voters say his policies are making the economy worse rather than better, while 28 percent say the opposite (the rest had no opinion).

I think that 20 point gap is very significant. That’s too many for honest answers. It looks to me like either people in the left afraid to say things are going well (unlikely) and people still on the right, afraid to say it’s looking bad.

Trump’s whole strategy here was to tank things so quickly that there could be no resistance from the left and that the Republican base would remain loyal.

This is a real crack in that. 28% support days that his base it liking where we’re headed, but he’s losing the Republicans who don’t support him particularly.

Of course we are. Hope that clears it up.

How much could performance even improve?
