Rand Paul v the Fed is one of my favourite plot lines to follow because he's so passionate about it but almost no one else cares.

Rand Paul's beard is one of the best things to come out of 2020

@SecondJon To be fair the are a small number of front-runner candidates and the votes are predicated on one of them being chosen

@happymoomoo @shebang boo

Im surprised there arent more resources for starting a public apt repository mirror. Yum has a great how to page

Star Trek TNG's protagonist is wesley crusher

@alex @Moon probably better than javascript for that. Why isn't it used more?

@Moon @alex Javascript as a compilation target is a really interesting idea

@wjmaggos getting rid of the filibuster was a terrible idea.

I often go to a coffee shop when I want to work on stuff. The place I go has one restroom and the number of people who walk up to the closed restroom door and try to turn the knob to see if it's locked is incredible. Have people totally forgotten how to knock on doors?

@SecondJon there's probably less than half a dozen federal politicans who I think actually say what they think. Ron Paul is a good example. Probably Dan Crenshaw. He seems pretty genuine.

This is pretty ridiculous

@khird voters nowdays seem to hold senators responsible for the justices they appoint. Do you think modern communication affects this?

It seems like the argument was mostly that the previous system encouraged corruption. I don't know if that would still be true today.

What were the arguments made for the direct election of senators?

@GKCDaily do you believe socrates believed dogma?

@alex oh javascript

@alex try clojure
