It is the progressive party. But they can't win a local council seat let alone any valuable position. But they run for President every year and normally run one of their established candidates. The right gains more by supporting them.
That said funding is questionable. They normally have their primary debate around a rental folding table. Im shocked they can even afford chairs.
The reminder is due to the fact that she never should have been the candidate in 2024 in the first place. She was not even in the top 5 in 2020. She didn't do anything during her time as VP that made up for that gap. She was pushed in because the folks above her were two leftists, a gay man, and a rich DINO.
I don't know that she would win California and if California goes to a Republican governor that takes away one of the handful of hail mary possible counter balances to Trump right now in a possible secession action. Right now if Trump attacked Mexico and Canada it isnt unreasonable to think some states would actively refuse to support the action but if California or New York were not both states to support it then it would be meaningless.
Why is your hobby more important than their hobby?
Would be sick to get to vote for someone who actually had opinions and goals and stood for something. If we want to vote for just the general prevailing opinion we should just run an LLM and train it on superbowl commercials and cable news.
Linus shouldn't have to get involved at all. Each part of the Kernel should be handled independently by the maintainers. Linus responding publicly to outside forces is fine but once he has to step in to handle public fights between individuals who are supposed to work together it is a problem.
Linux staying C focused is a valid thing to do. It is very hard to get folks to contribute to the kernel and if you cut out anyone who doesn't know Rust, a language with at best 5% the adoption rate of C, you will run into spots where sections of the kernel are unmaintained due to no willing and qualified person covering it.
Adding Rust based functionality and support is great. Changing APIs to require maintainers to learn Rust to continue to maintain the code they are experts in is unacceptable.
For an RN the average is $100k and the top top is ~$160k.
The answer is that the overall healthcare system needs to be rebuilt. The fact though is that the hospitals all know the incoming administration will be cool with corner cutting but also won't pay out very well.
The trend already is for insurance to never pay out. Currently you have to bill for 4X the price of something just so the insurance company can write off how big of a savings things are when they pay out only 1/4th the cost which ends up hopefully being the actual cost.
So you have a hospital administration attempting to extract value from their workers, because they know that no one else will pay. Besides if a strike goes on they can just get the new administration to handwave hiring "holistic nursing" professionals who take a fake online test. They can just read out that the AI says that the problem is a combination of verbal irregularity and overall health being a bit behind.
You think MOST hospital staff make OVER 150k in the Portland area? That is an incredibly hot take.
The average salary is about 95k but that also includes the "high" earners and I put high in quotations because it still isn't like tech sector. A medical assistant at providence starts at 48k/yr. Desk worker starts at about 30k/yr.
That means the average worker can afford $650 to $2000 a month in rent or mortgage. Even at the top end that isnt enough to get a 2 bedroom apartment if they are single with a kid. That isnt enough to even approach buying a house unless they are splitting it with someone else making more than them.
And these are the best that can be found at the salaries being offered. If they go away you will get even worse people.
My experience with healthcare workers is that they are underpaid and overworked and that after years and years of that they just stop caring.
Ukraine was the 3rd largest nuclear power in the world, and is famous for it's history with nuclear energy.
The issue here is that them starting the enrichment process is grounds for the start of WW3, and they wouldn't complete the effort in time to offensively defend themselves. You'd have to give them entirely complete nukes and even that would just mean it's nuke launchin time for a number of folks.
Debian tends to be a liiiiitle bit behind Fedora and because gaming on Linux is accelerating in popularity, being ahead can provide big gains in performance.
Can you manually handle all of that? Sure. I mean I have Mint on my side desktop with a custom Kernel but I recognize that I am dropping a V8 into a Mini Van.
How is different from Crazy Frog or Billy Bass? Dumb memes turning into toys or dumb meme toys have been around for forever.
I believe the rule is any food that is perfect for eating on the road while you drive 45min from your first job, to your second part time night shift job. All of that kind of food doesn't exist in Europe or at least isn't popular for some reason.
