@Leyonhjelm @polarisera Legacy IT systems exist, little ones.

@Leyonhjelm @polarisera And i bET yoU'Ve wORKED WiTH sYStEMS aS lARGE As sOcIAL sECURiTY!!!

Or even the interfaces for ACA, which the tech industry totally fucked up by not consulting those with core competencies on what would be required.

@Leyonhjelm @polarisera Incompetencies include not understanding the date function in COBOL, and those are the Doods that Orange Dood wants to "verify records"

I do not understand why you think stepping on the third rail of US politics is good for your side --- unless you think starving seniors will Make America Great Again?

@polarisera And there are just TONS of 150 year old people getting checks every single month!!!

HOW do we know this?

THE FUCKING LIARS SAID SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As he moved to cut foreign aid, he and Elon Musk alleged widespread waste and abuse, although they offered little evidence to back up their claims and may simply disagree with how the money was being spent.

With that in mind, consider what the Trump administration is now doing to Social Security, seeding the idea, which is not backed up by known facts, that millions of dead people are collecting payments.

@Leyonhjelm @polarisera "The challenge with COBOL is that it doesn’t have a standardized way to store and work with dates — unlike most modern programming languages. Instead, many dates in COBOL must be coded to a reference number, often using an international standard, Rege explained.

"The most common reference date number is May 20, 1875, under an international standard known as ISO 8601. That means if someone applies for Social Security without a birth date, they may be recorded as 150 years old in the database depending on how a programmer troubleshoots the issue.

"Programmers can overcome these limitations in COBOL’s functionality, but they may also opt to use 1875 as a placeholder for unknown dates if it aligns with the database’s purpose… For example, when the federal government began issuing regular monthly Social Security payments in January 1940, recipients needed to be at least 65 to qualify, meaning they needed to be born in 1875 or before.

"Those who crafted the Social Security database may have, therefore, set 1875 as the default birth year for anyone who lacked that information at the time."

@Leyonhjelm @polarisera I can think of zero competencies of the people looking into it, and zero credibility for the people who believe that shit.

Abortion measure lost in Florida because it only got 57% of the vote (needed 60).

Meanwhile, this is a red state victory:

Missouri overturns abortion ban as voters approve a core right to reproductive freedom

@Notgonnastop True, but the real threat is a federal ban, which the GOP, including Vance, have promised,

The best they're offering is "we'll take your right to bodily autonomy, but we may help you as a welfare mom" as Vance said in his "softened" approach.

@starsstorm @Notgonnastop Of course it is.

"Exceptions" to save a woman's life is also a farce - hospitals will be reopening sepsis wards, and everyone knows women lie about rape.

GOP is a farce on abortion. Always has been.

@KuteboiCoder @amerika @starsstorm @Notgonnastop Funny how women are dead because of your fake issue, isn't it?

@EmmaFaber @Flick ssssh. giving away military secrets.

@William_The_Dragonborn @laurel @ChasingWaterfalls @LadyMont The paedo appeal of anime is one of its selling points, don't you think?

The overly childlike gaze of the girls was in it from the start when it was just Japanese cartoons about girls who like being raped.

@William_The_Dragonborn @laurel @ChasingWaterfalls @LadyMont No, you're just happy to spread the sexism around.

@laurel @ChasingWaterfalls @William_The_Dragonborn @LadyMont I don't expect a pea brain to understand, but the things men are invading are the system feminists created. Separate bathrooms, women's prisons, women's sports were demanded by feminists.

Feminism is being curb stomped by jealous men, aided and abetted by women who only think they're feminists, and being kind by handing over the infrastructure feminists built. That's a known phenomenon. It's called backlash.

Feminists are considered"liberal" true, but the right has done its utter best to repel a woman's right to take charge of her own life, and so the left is where feminists gravitated. Feminism itself has no party loyalty, as long as the rights of women are respected.

@William_The_Dragonborn @laurel @ChasingWaterfalls @LadyMont Yeah, yeah, yeah. You find an anectdote that you think proves your point, and is basically bullshit.

Learn to troll better.

@Weedle @EvilSandmich @William_The_Dragonborn Um, look at any social media sites, and you find anime.

Not posted by companies wither.

@Weedle @EvilSandmich @William_The_Dragonborn In the 1980's, some Japanese cartoonists began writing stories about Japanese women being raped and enjoying it. It was very popular in Japan.

That was the beginning of anime portraying girls as younger and younger while keeping them sexualized.

I'm not asking you to "take my word for it", but it even shocked the straights. MSM art pages covered it. (I'm also not going to dig up a pre-Internet newspaper article. It happened.)

@Weedle @William_The_Dragonborn Or, I'm just familiar with how the style developed.
