I ask it for help when I'm unfamiliar with a library/language or if I'm getting complex errors.

But I always type out the code myself, making sure I'm reading each line and understanding what's happening.

Even for boilerplate if you just let the ai go at it, it'll generate a Frankenstein boilerplate of an outdated standard.

I still like this version of a natural American borders:

Republicans also won the house and senate.

With the combined total of a right controlled presidency, congress, and supreme court what can't they do?

So just allow Hitler to take over europe and make an ethnostate through mass exodus?

If you're talking about the nukes, I agree, they were unnecessary as Axis Japan was already on the decline.

But to argue the entire war was preventable by just displacing jewish people is naive and borders on antisemitic.

There might've been ways to prevent the war from starting, like not destroying Germany's economy as a scapegoat for WW1 would have done a lot.

But after the Nazis siezed power there's nothing you could do to diplomacy the Nazis into being peaceful.

I get annoyed when people say things like "big deal, just do xyz yourself, why are you complaining?" . Because making a clear and comprehensive game is WOTC's job they are being paid for with our money!

If the system has a flaw, it's their job to fix it, if they don't they're doing a bad job.

That being said, 5.5e has been pretty cleaned up in this aspect. I'm honestly shocked at how they both added new fun systems and codified a lot of vague mechanics.

There are multiple cases where pure chance and human hesitation prevented all out nuclear bombardment in the Cold War.

So for that alone we are extremely lucky.

Ultimately I believe you can't claim to be an activist if you are promoting inaction.

If voting doesn't matter then vote and do more. Doing less to change things is functionally conservative no matter how you spin it.

This would he concerning if I wasn't convince that Walz would sit him down and correct him like a disappointed father.

If anyone could make a politician seem like a child to their face it'd be him, and especially if that politician is Vance.

Humans have advanced far but hardly changed.

Hopefully the loopholes of executive power that enabled that crackpot plan will be closed up by then...

Yeah I know, a lot to ask for.

It was, infact, not all good there.

From a game theory perspective, a trumper discouraged to vote is worth 1 vote, a flipped Republican vote is worth 2 votes.

So the appeal to the right makes sense if it works, because every vote from that camp is also a negative vote from Trump.
