I feel like the Elon Musk trade is fairly straightforward.

People buy the stock because they trust Elon Musk, and his companies are good enough to continually increase profits or revenue (that is, he's good at avoiding things that scare away investors). Because of that, the stock will continue to go up until Elon dies or retires.

When Elon dies, that's the sign to sell.

I expect SystemD was originally created because someone looked at Apple's LaunchD and decided they wanted a GPL-compatible alternative

This kind of thing should be encapsulated in a macro or function so you don't make mistakes.

Using the raw stdlib string library will cause security problems. These can be avoided 100% by using custom string functions.

Further to that systemd is highly modular. Most of it does not run in PID 1. On my fedora system there are half a dozen individual systemd module packages that can be used or not as the system needs and is designed. systemd is not at all monolithic.

The only people who say that haven't actually looked at the source code, or are liars. I don't know which one you are.

At least you didn't say "Systemd is small", which it isn't.

It's possible the systemd team sees the field as a way to make their software more "sticky." If the data gets stored by systemd, then systemd because a little harder to remove.

That is a horrible development strategy for good software, but it does make the software more likely to remain. The Darwinistic incentive is there for enshittification.

Is a SuperPAC grassroots? No.

The author of Revelation was not a fan of the Roman economic project. It was built on cruelty, just like our corporate system is today.

Of course, if you got your understanding of the bible from a crappy evangelical church, you are not going to understand it. If you got your understanding of the bibble from a catholic church, they intentionally obfuscated it.

In plain English? Here you go:

A woman sitting upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. The waters which thou sawest, where the woman sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

The way the machine works, if one side can get funding for a PAC to do something (like Leading the Future, pro-AI pac), then it's relatively easy to get funding for a PAC supporting the opposite. Fund both sides, and eventually you can leverage that to influence.

This is a grassroots SuperPAC. It's not evil. It's like a rainy clear day, or a happy mourning. Not a happy morning. They are as compatible as spicy Skittles(tm).

I don't know how you can't understand this is so logical and orgamic, like camels of prairie grass and corporate funded grassroots events.

Corporate grassroots are the only true grassroots, and Ingsoc freedomis.
