Wasn’t diversifying US energy sources also a national security issue? And wind energy was set aside because, wait for it, they killed animals. Birds to be specific.
Remember when we destroyed Iran's nuclear program before we destroyed it last month? This administration is perfectly consistent with being inconsistent.
I'm not sure about all wind energy, but offshore wind energy has been set aside because Donald Trump's Scotland Golf Club lost a lawsuit to an offshore wind farm a decade ago, and he appears to have a blanket opposition to the concept ever since.
(personal commentary/context: I want more energy production of any economically viable category: wind, solar, nuclear, geothermal, natural gas, etc. I have no blanket opposition to offshore oil drilling or offshore wind energy)
"National security issue" is the root password to the constitution and the rule of law. It'll get used whenever someone wants to bypass either or both.
The folks in charge just want what they want without rhyme or reason. Mix a mind virus and joy of power together and get your eratic clown show. And many times it can go on a lot longer than you'd ever guess.
Unfortunately as a society we keep moving further and further away from the foundations of a functional society based on a representative government and considering the general welfare.
None of this should come as a surprise. The scoundrels got the mob in power (again) and they’re just going to keep breaking things and stealing the money until stopped or dead.
The optimist in me thinks we will pivot from this dark timeline in 10-20 years. That even if we face violent internal strife, we will come out of this dark timeline eventually. Even the threat of omniscient AI surveillance is too much against the will of a free society.
That’s not the point. The point is if you lose a presidential election to a grifter, most folks are screwed in almost unlimited ways. Don’t lose an election to a grifter. Be more practical when it comes to not losing an election to a grifter next time.
The way you phrase all that underscores the real problem: no one holds the Republican party accountable for their actions. It's the Democrats' responsibility to save us from them, and when the public screws up and grants power to the Republicans again, it's the Democrats' fault and not those who voted in the goons who come in and break things.
The Democrats are hardly perfect, and I wish we had something better to oppose the Republicans, but let's at least acknowledge who the real villain is.
You peeps are right - I should have been less snarky.
Having worked with projects like celery I at first was enamored by the relative simplicity of getting a job queue going, but it traps you into celery which is just python or whatever language happens to create a celery compatible message structure (it’s amqp for most shops I’ve worked with).
Thing is in distributed systems it’s annoying when all the different systems have to pepper celery as a layer of your understanding. I found that systems like Argo workflows/events did an awesome job of keeping the message agnostic to anything (even Argo) such that writing the code was boring (the good kind). At the end you’re not even thinking about pubsub or anything other than either what you log out or write to a file. Either of those is fine.
How those different services connect or scale is irrelevant to your service (that’s for another layer handled by your Argo manifests) and it’s contextually liberating.
I am probably not being fair to this project, I just dislike making my software be someone else’s implicitly - there are places that would consider themselves x (celery in my case) shops because of the investment not only in the invasive code presence that is commanded by the library but the necessary mental model. I felt like while it is an investment to learn Argo - the code structure and mindset is pretty portable.
It’s a good point. The Argo workflow/event set up I’m referencing isn’t for everything. It does distribute ELT pipelines rather well but I am not sure it was designed with that particular usecase in mind. Thank you!
I was asking earlier if DHI has tests - seems they do. As does the FastAPI refactor.
Would be nice though if there was an exact test suite that ran against both that could demonstrate parity. It would be onerous to try and compare both library’s test to see which one is more comprehensive (believable) - by default I’d expect the original to be the most believable (duh) mostly because tests represent historical cases that can up and broke it.
I’m now just learning about DHI (which this project uses as the pydantic replacement that is typically used by FastAPI) - which by the way was brought up recently but seems to have gotten zero traffic
dhi is LLM generated, so (1) don't trust the stated benchmark results and feature parity, and (2) be careful when installing it and using in a non-sandboxed environment.
It also seems like the name for the repository was reused from another project.
It’s spending. Comparatively? Not sure. Health and education are wildly more expensive in the US as compared to other countries). Are US citizens getting similar/better outcomes? What is the comparison between exported/imported jobs and health care between countries?
So true. You can apply this to limiting federal government. The GOP used to all be about states rights to self government. It’s so reversed that it feels like that’s never been the case.
The GOP was never actually about that. They were only ever about states rights to govern themselves according to conservative Christian principles. They have always opposed states' rights to support social welfare, abortion, gun control, environmental programs, immigration, etc.
