"We estimate the Supply-side value of widely-used OSS is $4.15 billion, but that the Demand-side value is much larger at $8.8 trillion ... firms would need to spend 3.5 times more on software than they currently do if OSS did not exist" ()

Basically what old folks like me have been saying the entire time. We needed to bring manufacturing home, but we had a fucking coup by lesser men to drive us over the cliff instead. You want to know why there are medicine shortages? It’s because China doesn’t like our chip bans on them. You can’t be a beggar and a mugger for long.

@AmpBenzScientist All of the major ones, half of the obscure ones... honestly its too many to name.

Inconceivable!

You keep a' using that word. I do not think it a' means, what you think it a' means!

When I worked as a programmer I always assured my clients that I would fix all their problems. What I usually didnt tell them about was all the new problems I would introduce in the process.

Remember folks,... never get involved in a land war in Asia.

There's this Indian woman at the job coaching space that I sometimes talk to during lunch, if we happen to be seated together.

She's married with children. She isn't too complex. She's just trying to be a good wife and she is looking for a job. She isn't a looker.

There isn't much we can talk about. Almost nothing in common.

But she has good vibes. Makes you feel safe. Always a little smile.

She cooks her lunches at home and brings them to work. It's not tikka masala, tandoori or korma or other Mogul empire stuff you've seen at Indian restaurants. It's food that Indians actually cook at home.

When she brings food I've never seen before to lunch, I ask her about it. One day, she let me taste some of it.

I'm not going anywhere with her, since she has her life, but it's something interesting and different, if you know what I mean.

> I mean I understand it medically but not for a diet. If you are trying to lose fat, why not replace it with muscle? Strengthen the core, improve posture, improve efficiency and keep a healthy percentage of body fat. It's just a good feeling.

As with any diet depending on how you do it will determine if you are going to loose mscle or fat mass. There is nothing unique about keto that is likely to effect that equation. Any good died, if you stick with it will give you a healthy weight anod not just labotomize your muscled.

> Healthy body and healthy mind. I found that my food cravings became more healthy and my time under the surface increased to around 3 minutes. I did get over 3 minutes but I just surfaced and grabbed something until I could see again. Most of this is irrelevant but keep up the good work.

good is not inherently healthy or unhealthy. Within the context of your overall diet, sure you have healthy and unhealthy diets. But any food, in the right perportion, is ealthy as part of the right diet.

It’s always the case of you spend less time with full rewriting vs bolting on and making facades to run poorly. :shrugz:

Name one thing you like the most and hate the most about each of these cultures. Please be sure its respectful and compassionate criticism (though harsh is ok), but hate speech and slurs will be blocked on site.

1. Atheists
2. Christians
3. Muslims
4. Jews

Watching "Dr who the star beast".. they leaned a bit heavier into the woke side of things, but while a bit on the heavy side I liked it. Right until the end, the end they said something like "We have a power a male-presenting time-lord will never have... letting go". Got that was cringe, sexist, and ruined it.

I have to say its pretty nice being able to eat a five guys burger for dinner with bacon and literally be completely within the bounds of my diet and not needing to cheat at all.

I still wish it had a damn bun though!
