... are having a hard time justifying their favorable ratings. With one the US has moved from AAA to AA a few years back and even that was seen as being nice and kind. I hope the US doesn't squander trust beyond the Trump era, lest you guys be sitting on a pile of money that the world has finally noticed not being worth the paper it's printed on.

It is my opinion that you could have a true revolution, a bottom-up redo of the US constitution and fixes for the most glaring broken parts of the US system up and running within months without even a single bullet fired. AFAICT from across the pond basically _everyone_ agrees that the current state of things has become untenable. You don't need to be a bunch of Trumpists storming the Capitol to see this.

I think this bill isn't perfect by a long shot. But NONE of what is in the headline is true.

Why, because you don't want to believe it? Everything stated is literally in the bill. This is from yesterday:

Of course the hypocrisy from those who applaud this cutting isn't lost on people with at least one brain cell:

Funny how they never mention the money-spigot from Washington the oil and gas companies have received since day one, or the huge subisidies companies like Haliburton receive every year.

Oh look, here is the actual wording from the House bill posted on the congressional web site. But they're lying about this as well, right?

Those who complain about lack of worker protections, tax evasion, etc., should similarly be opposed to illegal immigration, which only serves to enable all of that.

Correction. Those who complain about illegal workers shouldn't be hiring them, which only serves to enable all of that.

Time and again, those making the loudest noises against illegals are the ones hiring them, Trump included as well as those who voted for him.

The thing is with all the raids by ICE, crops are rotting in the field and workers are not showing up to work for days at a time.

So good news, it won't be long until only the seeds are left.

You mean the Comet Empire?

How fast can we resurrect the Yamato?

Worm brain doesn't care what people who studied the subjects their entire career think. The only thing he cares about is getting his anti-vax cronies in office to destroy decades of scientific research and replace it with homepathy.

Once we wipe out enough of the species that it begins to show up on quarterly reports as loss of profit, maybe we'll consider doing something about it.

Interesting you should say that. I just heard this morning that as more immigrants get sent out of the country we may experience a net loss to the population for the first time in decades. In addtion, because of all these people no longer in the country, GDP will decrease because they aren't buying goods and services nor helping to produce goods and services.

We know this is already affecting industries such as housing where one MAGA voter whined it will take him years to replace the immigrants taken from him. Of course, in Florida, they're already aware of what happens when you go after immigrants. Food rots in the field and businesses can't fully operate.

Perhaps these extended droughts will accelerate these issues.

I do. The music is mine. I'm not dependent on someone else playing it for me over some shitty link.

Further, there is cover art and words to the songs.

I own it. I'm not renting it from anyone.

Figma barely has a business case. Anything still left is being snacked up by AI or will eventually be replaced by open source software.

With UI design tools it's just like with Editors or Web Toolkits. There is always some hype-cycle that pushes the tool that then quickly gets replaced by the next fad: Sketch - Adobe XD - Invision - Figma ... whatever. Meanwhile folks who have chosen and stayed with Inkscape and Object Libraries or Penpot will do so until the end of their days and save the money and hassle.

I don't even use UI designers anymore, I build right in the web these days. The UI libs are all there already and you can integrate them just as quick as drawing the element. I might copy the occasional SVG object into my components, but that's because Inkscape is a neat vector drawing tool for the custom stuff. For everything else I don't even need it anymore.

If the company didn't rescind his credentials immediately upon firing, that's all the reputation you need to know.
