Ummm, pardon? How does that work?

An Invocation for Beginnings

This was exactly my thought as I read and reread this paragraph several times trying to figure out if I was getting it wrong.

“She was in there, she was still strapped into her car and the water was actually rising and getting up into the car itself, so she was about, almost neck deep submerged in her own car.”

True. I was more responding to the article that makes no reference to Ada Lovelace. She’s deserves to be mentioned when that topic comes up.

Sorry, I’m firmly in Ada Lovelace’s camp for credit for first use of the term. https://medium.com/the-mumblings-of-a-security-professional/a-bug-in-the-machine-286800f71cbc

All true. My point is that if they’re polling current small business owners asking if she is business friendly, they might likely say no, because her plans aren’t directly friendly to their specific company.

🤣. Is there a clip of that from the TV view?

Well, one potential psychological flaw in her $50k small business tax credit is that it’s only for new small businesses to go towards startup costs.

Existing small businesses that may be struggling can look at that and only see her making it easier for their future competition to get rolling. It’s a net negative for them.

Just about the only people that are going to look at that tax credit and see how it benefits them are people that are already looking into starting a small business and the main thing holding them back is the startup costs. That’s probably not a lot of voters.

Just another way for foreign countries to legally fund his campaign without limits. There are only so many sneakers they can “buy” before it starts to look too obvious what’s going on.

“Congressional Elections” includes The House of Representatives and The Senate.

However, Joe Lonsdale, the founder of 8VC, did comment, considering it a response to an attack by left-wing media for “supporting Trump.” Lonsdale was referring to an article published by Forbes magazine describing his fund’s connections with the sons of Russian oligarchs.

Forbes is “left-wing media” now?

I’d like to remind everyone that 8 years ago, the polls showed Hillary was going to trounce Trump pretty handedly. There was tons of discussion after the election about how the polls could be so wrong.

I think Fivethityeight’s explanation went something like…

If a candidate is only polling 40% to their opponents’s 60%, and you were to run the election 10 times with a different sampling of voters each time, it doesn’t mean that the candidate will lose by 60% every time. It means they’re going to win four times out of ten.

Don’t let polls lull you into either complacency or despair. The only thing polls are really good for is giving pundits something to talk about in the 24 hour news cycle. Polls don’t decide the election. Only actual votes on actual ballots that are actually submitted in time decide the election.

Which are all good points of discussion, but still paint a very different picture of what happened than your initial comment which made no mention of the knives or surveillance footage, instead focusing solely on supposed witnesses talking to reporters. It suggests that you’re trying to drive a specific narrative rather than find the truth.

Some context that you left out…

MPD says several officers from Columbus Ohio observed a man, armed with a knife in each hand, and was engaged in an ‘altercation’ with another man they say was unarmed.

They say officers identified themselves as police officers and made several commands for the 43-year-old to drop the knife.

Police say the man refused and charged at the unarmed man with the knives. That’s when several officers discharged their firearms, killing the 43-year-old man.

Surveillance video appears to show the shooting in the middle of Vliet St.

TMJ4 acquired the bodycam video of the Columbus officers from MPD.

Two knives were recovered from the scene, according to MPD.

I’m sure a couple of intrepid Ukrainian farmers with tractors could get the job done before sunset.

Don’t get too excited.

Although the UK government has said that it now won’t force unproven technology on tech companies, and that it essentially won’t use the powers under the bill, the controversial clauses remain within the legislation, which is still likely to pass into law. “It’s not gone away, but it’s a step in the right direction,” Woodward says.

James Baker, campaign manager for the Open Rights Group, a nonprofit that has campaigned against the law’s passage, says that the continued existence of the powers within the law means encryption-breaking surveillance could still be introduced in the future. “It would be better if these powers were completely removed from the bill,” he adds.

But some are less positive about the apparent volte-face. “Nothing has changed,” says Matthew Hodgson, CEO of UK-based Element, which supplies end-to-end encrypted messaging to militaries and governments. “It’s only what’s actually written in the bill that matters. Scanning is fundamentally incompatible with end-to-end encrypted messaging apps. Scanning bypasses the encryption in order to scan, exposing your messages to attackers. So all ‘until it’s technically feasible’ means is opening the door to scanning in future rather than scanning today. It’s not a change, it’s kicking the can down the road.”

From my experience (been to BM a few times, not recently though), most Burners are left of center and would likely accept anthropogenic climate change as real. Likely for political reasons rather than scientific reasons, though, as many of those same Burners would also happily accept that crystals/magnets/heavily diluted water can cure disease and that the positions of nearby planets relative to distant stars from the perspective of Earth combined with how many times the moon had orbited Earth since January 1st on your birthday can vaguely predict what’s going to happen to you in the next week or so.

Yes, yes we are, including you.

That’s awful for those people. Sadly, many Christians in the US use stories like this to boost their own persecution complex so that they can justify (to themselves) their own persecution of other people.
