Are we the baddies?

What are you gonna do? Tariff yourself into isolation?

Yes, I believe they that was Puti- I mean, Trump’s plan…

I suspect that they honestly think that they can bully the world into allowing us to keep our troops wherever we like. While I’m sure that will work for some weaker-willed countries, I fully believe that the rest will tell us to sit and spin.

Yeah, he’s really the canary in the coal mine. When he flees the state/country, you know shit’s bad…

…HTTP is a high level application protocol and its errors are supposed to be around access to resources…

I’ve had fellow developers fight me on this point, in much the same way as your parent post.

“If you return a 404 for a record not found, how will I know I have the right endpoint?”

You’ll know you have the right endpoint because I advertised it—in Open API, in docs, etc.

“But, if /users/123 returns a 404, does that mean that the endpoint can’t be found or the record can’t be found?”

Doesn’t matter. That resource doesn’t exist. So, act appropriately.

…Nor is the trump admin actually using it to pay down the debt…

That’s the damning thing: Any savings are going towards tax cuts for the already-wealthy…

…Anyway, defunding the NOAA to pay off the national debt is like skipping a coffee, once, to pay down a mortgage on a house.

…and then going out and buying an expensive car.

It’s a completely self-solvable problem: Don’t act like an awful person.

I mean, if you have empathy, it’s not really hard to suss out the causes and work to fix them… 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s pretty much it. Trump—really, the folks who control him—is going to wall us off from the rest of the world, while the rest of the world continues moving forward. In power. In technology. In medicine.

You jest, but I would seriously consider the possibility that he’ll sue anyone selling the stock, and sue the government for not investing in it expressly.

I mean, god, the tantrums he’s thrown at having advertisers take breaks—because I don’t think any of them truly left—from Twitter should be proof enough of the possibility.

Oh, they’ll go there next, don’t you worry…
