Thereâs a hidden provision in that big ugly bill that makes Trump king
Robert Reich,  Chancellorâs Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley -  Raw Story

President Trumpâs approval rating: Hereâs what latest opinion polls show
Kathryn Palmer,  Trending News Reporter -  USA Today
_Stephan: The truth that corporate media doesnât seem able or willing to touch is that the transformation of the United States into a fascist autocracy by Trump and his vellains is only happening because a small majority of Americans voted for it. Fascism never comes into power through violence; it is always voted into office by ⊠â Read more
Trump Says Birthright Citizenship Is Only âAbout the Babies of Slaves.â Historical Evidence Says Otherwise.
Damon Root ,  Senior Editor -  reason
Stephan:Â Here is a fact-based exegetic essay on U.S. birthright citizenship. I have looking at MAGAt media to see how it was playing this issue, and the racism and ignorance on this subject is astonishing.

Trump Is Building a Global Gulag for Immigrants Captured by ICE

Trump just uttered the most despicable lie pushed by GOP in decades
Thom Hartmann,  Contributing Writer -  Raw story | Commentary
Stephan:Â Although Trump is a terrible multi-bankrupt businessman, as I have pointed out repeatedly, he has real skill with lying and manipulating media to focus on fake or irrelevant stories to avoid attention on the real stories. Thom Hartmann explains what I mean very well.

_Stephan: In my view, the Chinese have played Donald Trump like a flute in the trade war crisis he created. I donât know why corporate media hardly mentions that Trump has gone bankrupt six times; he couldnât even make a success of a gambling casino. He is a terrible businessman. What he does understand is how to manipulate American media with big ⊠â Read more

âThe universities are the enemyâ: why the right detests the American campus

Nobody want to be a shitty programmer. The question is: Do you do anything not to not be one?
Reading blogs or social media and watching YouTube videos is fun. After them, your code may be a little better, of course. But you need a lot. You need to study! Read good books and study the code of other programmers, for example. Maybe work with a new language, architectures and paradigms. You need break the routine.
If you know Object-oriented programming, you learn functional programming.
If you know Model-View-Controller, you learn Model-View-ViewModel.
If you donât know anything about architectures, you learn Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, etc.
If you know Python, you learn Ruby or Go.
If you know Clojure or Lisp⊠you donât need to learn anything else. You are already a good programmer. Just kidding. You can learn Elixir or Scala.
Be a good programmer my friend.

Confession:
Iâve never found microblogging like twtxt or the Fediverse or any other âmodernâ social media to be truly fulfilling/satisfying.
The reason is that it is focused so much on people. You follow this or that person, everybody spends time making a nice profile page, the posts are all very âego-centricâ. Seriously, it feels like everybody is on an ego-trip all the time (this is much worse on the Fediverse, not so much here on twtxt).
I miss the days of topic-based forums/groups. A Linux forum here, a forum about programming there, another one about a certain game. Stuff like that. That was really great â and it didnât even suffer from the need to federate.
Sadly, most of these forums are dead now. Especially the nerds spend a lot of time on the Fediverse now and have abandoned forums almost completely.
On Mastodon, you can follow hashtags, which somewhat emulates a topic-based experience. But itâs not that great and the protocol isnât meant to be used that way (just read the snac2 docs on this issue). And the concept of âlikesâ has eliminated lots of the actual user interaction. âčïž
White House launches Drudge-style website to promote Trump
Alex Isenstadt,  Staff Writer -  Axios
_Stephan: This article is yet another move straight out of the fascist coup playbook. Get the billionaires to buy big media, both print and electronic.

Everything Trump is doing is straight out of the Hitler playbook, a ⊠â Read more

Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done
Michael Tomasky, Â Â - Â The New Republic
Stephan:Â Psychopath Trump may be the most corrupt man in the United States. He is a convicted sex offender, multiple felon, multiple bankrupt, and multiple convicted fraudster. And yet the media never presents that list, nor as this article describes, do you often see anything about his current ongoing corruption.

Trumpâs Power Feeds on White Demographic Fears

We donât talk enough about this White supremacy racism in the Republican Party, and media doesnât cover it properly, if at all. But ⊠â Read more
