I sort of get why governments and their leaders keep playing nice with trump - they want to keep trade flowing smoothly.

But isn’t it a worse long run strategy to do this no matter what? Seems to me that they are exposing weakness which could hurt them in future negotiations. Not that any future, sane-minded world leader would ever implement tariffs again.

Good! We do not need most of the volume of code that we ship nowadays anyway. Need to get out of the user’s way so they can do whatever they’re here to do, not give them a Hoover dam of bullshit

Forgot where I was! Thanks

Maybe I missed it, but what about environmental lead poisoning? All those slugs in the ground can’t be good

EDIT: I was wrong. Here’s one of the verses that are not usually sung:

“And where is that band who so vauntingly swore

⁠That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more?

⁠Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.”

Fascinating, thanks for your insight

Wow that was well described

Fun fact, AFTER he got his JD from Vanderbilt, he got an additional, advanced law degree at Oxford. Yes, that Oxford. Amazing that he was able to keep his accent through all of that.
