The proposed cuts to Medicaid might actually push the US healthcare system to the point of collapse. I’m no gambler but I would be willing to bet money that it will put a dozen or more hospitals in my rural red state, many of which are already financially distressed, out of business.
The “big beautiful bill” is a smoldering pile of shit that benefits only rich people and leaves everyone else holding the bag.
I have a rule that “Nothing will be automated that cannot be manually overridden.”
Well, actually it’s my wife’s rule but it’s a good rule nonetheless. As a result, there’s a big panel full of relays in the basement that is the “last mile” for anything climate control or security related.
There have been a few times when it’s been handy. Like when the exhaust fan isn’t working and I don’t want to debug the ESP32 controller today so I just flip it over to “Manual”.

Teenagers sometimes have to get blisters a few times before learning that it’s wiser to do the smart thing even if it wasn’t your idea.
Then again, I know a few adults like that too.
Highly location dependent. We have useable cell service in our house but Internet over 5G is slow.
Corporate America over here committing piracy en masse.
In my neighborhood you get a choice between coax or nothing.
Reporters should all just say it was Don Jr.
The actual question I’m reading from this is “are components that I build myself more secure than those provided by a third party library?”
You should correct me if that’s not what your asking.
The short answer is “probably not.” You can and will introduce bugs and vulnerabilities into your own software.
The main downsides of third party libraries are that they can have dependencies that you may not know about and vulnerabilities in third party libraries mean that a given vulnerability is just as widespread as a the library that it exists in.
Most “bad actors” are opportunists so a specific vulnerability being wide spread tends to work in their favor by increasing opportunities.
That said, I wouldn’t waste your time rewriting functionality that already exists in other libraries unless you have a very compelling reason for it.
Lol same. It was an emotional roller coaster. I felt sad and then confused until I reread it.
Thanks for clarifying that it’s your plushies that you keep locked up. Otherwise, I would have a lot more questions.

I’m fine with blatant corruption and flagrant violations of the law but I draw the line at saying “fuck”.

Mismanaged. Subsidizing shortfalls in the general fund using funds from the electric utility.
TLDR: The town owns its own electric utility and mismanaged the utility’s funds to the point of leaving the distribution system in severe disrepair.
It was very stressful in the moment but it ultimately worked out in my favor. Turns out judges don’t like it when you file for divorce, immediately violate the standing restraining order, and then don’t show up for your own hearing.
I didn’t have to deal with that. My ex cleaned out the house when I was at work one day. Took everything except one of the sofas, a mattres, and some of my clothes.
I’ve worked at places where we repurposed old CAT3 cables for network connecting printers, desk phones, environmental sensors, etc. Rare occasions where 10Mbps works just fine. Using that to connect a PC would suck.
It’s like the Republican Party got taken over by incompetent James Bond villains. However, despite what’s portrayed in Live and Let Die, alligators don’t normally prey on humans.
