Also, as a dev, this kind of coding drives me fucking crazy, all the insane verification harnessing and imagined deterministic proofs overlaid on C++. It's the most awful unenjoyable way to code.

Full dump on Russian 'Threat Market'. ```

" If you watch or read the media, you would think that a “ground invasion” of Iran is “imminent” — either to land on Kharg Island, a five-mile speck that processes 90 percent of Iran’s oil exports, or to take some coastal strip adjacent to the Strait of Hormuz.

It is not imminent and not even inevitable.

Military sources tell me that for weeks, the Pentagon has exaggerated the readiness and potency of the Marines, setting in motion a media frenzy that is part stupidity, part disinformation to removedTehran, and part manipulation to please Donald Trump."

As a commie who lived in Williamsburg when it was still cool . . . .I feel entitled to repost this response here.

The superstructure of the hipster era saw all towns become Brooklyn, as gentrification and twee commodities invaded the space of all non-Boomer adults.

Now, this is course is a reflection of the underlying material reality, where the proletariat is increasingly being concentrated in knowledge cities, while the petit bourgeois have been left to their pool dealerships in the exurbs. And as we know, superstructure follows base to reinforce it (we do know this, right)?

In this case, the Brooklyn superstructure serves to deepen the divide of the proletariat and petite-bourgeois, enabling the large bourgeois tech titans to continue to privatize all space as the culture war continues.

"plainclothes detective," 1906, from the rubber-soled shoes they wore (allowing stealthy movement), which were so called from 1863 (gums "rubber shoes" is attested by 1859); from gum (n.1) + shoe (n.).
