ssijak commented on How I Use Kagi   flamedfury.com/posts/how-... · Posted by u/moebrowne

Unfortunately, Kagi works with Russian companies and pays them money, which in my book is a no-no. I do not want any of my money to contribute to the Russian economy in any way, because I know what is happening to people in Ukraine.

(I was a Kagi subscriber, no more, because of this)

Language and/or library issue. DI helps code be easier to follow, more decoupled and read with less boilerplate AND helps testing much easier.

If you are on node/ts look at effect-ts.

Older people on social networks are cooked. I mean in general, we are entering an age where making scams and spreading false news will be easily done with 10$ of credits.

You are ignorant about how life is crossing into other countries. In the 1990s, my friend who is a white Canadian drove into Buffalo for dinner with his family, and on his way back the Canadian border patrol asked him where he was going. He answered “Canada” instead of Toronto and based on that they detained him for hours and ripped apart his car.

Just recently a woman from the UK was denied entry into Canada and because of that was denied entry back into the US and found herself in the same mess as the person in the article.

This happens all the time, you just don’t hear about it until the news decides to make a thing about it.

"woman from the UK was denied entry into Canada and because of that was denied entry back into the US"

You are proving my point, she was again detained by USA for 3 weeks when it could have been resolved much better and faster.

Yes. This is the reality of how it is. It’s unfair that this woman was caught in this but CBP have ultimate power crossing the border can be scary.

My friend got her visa stripped and given a 10 year ban under Obama because of jokes in her text messages about a GC marriage. She didn’t get thrown in jail but she was refused entry back into the US and had to get someone to sell all her stuff while she flew back to her home country.

Most of you have no idea about how life is because you’re probably citizens but this is the reality at the border. It’s even worse in other countries.

Someone I know is from Australia and she said if you overstay your visa they track you down, arrest you and send you to jails outside of Australia mainland until you are eventually deported. Every country treats their border extremely strictly.

CORRECTION: I pinged my friend and I was wrong. They arrest them but don’t send to offshore jails. Those are for illegal immgrants that arrive on boats.

"It’s even worse in other countries."

It's not. I take you are comparing to western countries. If you have a valid visa and behave even remotely normal to the border agents you will have no issues. Only in the USA some border agents have the attitude of "I'm gonna get you" or making you feel unwelcome for no reason. Hell, even in "authoritarian" countries like UAE or Quatar I never experience anything but pleasant interactions on the border.

Every country is like this. Israel is the scariest but I remember decades ago crossing into Switzerland by train and in the middle of the night being woken up by border guards with barking German shepherds asking for my passport. I have so many stories it’s funny. On top of the other stories I’ve already posted, my friend who is Canadian drove into Buffalo for dinner and on his way back, they asked him where are you going. He answered “Canada” and they detained him and pulled apart his car looking for drugs. He was detained for hours until they let him go.

What is exactly wrong here? They checked your passport and went on their way, that is how it works.

If the objective is to scare people off from going to the USA, then they're doing a magnificent job. I've heard other cases of people with green cards being arrested and put in terrible conditions, with absolutely no reason given. This woman was ready to go back home and not enter the US, but instead she was dragged through hell and only released because she was Canadian. All those with different passports get subjected to their own more oppressive and never ending hells, like being deported to a prison camp in Ecuador with no idea when you'd ever be released.

New America is absolutely terrifying.

Objective is to earn as much money as possible without regard for people. Those detention centers and prisons are privately owned.

The M3 Ultra with 512GB unified memory is a monster for AI development, while the new M4 MacBook Air makes AI features accessible to the mainstream. Apple's approach of building their own silicon shows massive dividends - they can optimize the entire stack from hardware to software for specific workloads like AI inference
