Please stop putting "cxx" or "cpp" in your C++ namespace. I already know what programming language I'm using tyvm.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This loathsome interregnum is a period of vast uncertainty, sure, but it's also one of truly delirious opportunity.

If it was going to happen, and it was always going to happen, then we live now on the cusp of a magnificent work.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to have power over the world.

It is genuinely humiliating as an America to have this sour, cowardly, narcissistic lout represent us and to know that so many Americans applaud conduct like this. Just deeply embarrassing.
REPORTER: How much wealthier are you now than when you returned to the WH?

TRUMP: The deals I made for the most part, other than what my kids are doing - they're running my business - were made before. Where are you from?

R: Australia

T: In my opinion you are hurting Australia right now. Quiet.

I hope everyone will forgive the bluntness of my language, but it seems like bluntness is warranted: it now seems pretty clear that the president raped children or at least knew about and actively facilitated the rape of children.

I think it is time we stopped using coded language to say that.

There's cope temptation to make jokes about it, I get that and have done it too, but it is profoundly dark that the president of the United States is a guy who sent explicit jokes to his good buddy, the world's most notorious pedophile, very obviously about how much they both enjoy raping children.

Sorry to make it worse but there's a part of the WSJ article that no one is talking about that I had to share with someone.

yeah this is correct.

I think we all kind of knew this already but the President of the United States of America is a childfucker.
Don't dance around it, don't make jokes about it, don't hedge as if it's merely suggestive of the possibility or we need more evidence to confirm.

This is a literal signed confession that the president is a pedophile. He is guilty of that most monstrous of crimes. Say it plainly and directly.

don’t love shooting a missile at a boat that appears to be just chugging along harming nobody (and, if it contained drugs, could’ve easily been interdicted). really don’t love posting satellite snuff footage of it on social media.

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

I have lost all patience with the apparently unshakeable conviction that striking a reasonable, moderate pose means assuming the sincerity of transparently pretextual horseshit. Donald Trump does not care about reducing crime in DC. He is testing and normalizing paramilitary deployments in cities.
Is that what he is doing? Fighting crime? Phew. I thought he was using federal power to assert power over the country’s capital

Is there a rationale for MSVC dropping support for inline asm in ARM/amd64?

It's not something I need often but it's weird that it has it for x86 but not others.
