Yep. The only people I know that use that term today as a descriptor and not an epithet are conservative Jewish families who are typically rich. To put it in your reddit dot com user name is literally just signaling privilege among what is a essentially just a pool of NYC/Westchester County/Fairfield County Jews that understands it.

Here’s a “gift article” as the NYT calls it:

This article should be the coffin nail for people thinking the kids are gonna save us. I screenshotted this as I read yesterday. Also I swear to god the casting call for this focus group had a question about how much you love Josh Shapiro that NYT filtered everyone out on.

Here are my favorites:

Some of the few good points:

The liberal ad campaign is grating:

“Amazing” zoomer media criticism:

Young undecided voters are just a reddit comment section:

The dumbest white woman you know:

Megyn Kelly style women are the most oppressed people in America:

I’ll add more later when the rate limit on uploads resets. There’s some more amazing garbage in there.

As a Jew whenever you see someone self describe as a JAP prepare to hear the most insane self absorbed privileged idiocy spouted at you until you simply give up.

Because if you break down the cost to unit economics, the biggest pieces of the pie are labor, profit and overhead. If the price of processors cannot go up, the pie needs to be adjusted for the workers. TSMC claims that in Taiwan it averages $76K USD yearly per worker, a country where the average wage is $21k. So roughly this translates to the employee mix for TSMC being 3x more expensive than the average wage. In the US this translates to $59k USD population average to $177k USD TSMC average, which is 2.3x the cost. In reality they’ll get that down to ~2x because ASML median salary is around $132K. So now you have to shift that pie to be less profitable or cut into overhead. Some share of overhead is actually executive perks/salaries/inefficiency so we get into the agency problem. Some share of overhead is the maintenance of favorable political connections which are more expensive in the US. Some share of overhead is maintenance on loans for capital expenses such as the buildings, machines, training, etc. Profit is obvious why it can’t be cut. They demand the same or increasing rates of profit.

This also assumes that the output between the two countries is comparable which is not true due to workforce mix and may never actually be true due to labor laws and cultural expectations of workers.

This doesn’t get into the more complex financial realities like, training and retaining a workforce who has no experience fabbing chips, the differences in work culture and expectations of workers between the two countries, etc.

The one thing Gaetz is good at is knowing how to break the law and get away with it. He defeated the FBI probe simply by picking targets and collaborators that would be difficult to use for prosecutors. This is because prosecutors now typically rise to their position involved using the weight of the state to roll over people who didnt know how to do crime. It’s all a numbers game to prosecutors so they don’t have enough experience dealing with the politics of criminal court, plus the fact that anyone who understands how the system works can simply set up their crimes in a way that benefits them in open court.

The sad reality is prosecutors look for perfect victims which allows imperfect victims who are often actually more vulnerable people in society to be abused at greater rates.

Remember how Democrats can’t figure out why people think that rich and connected people can get away with breaking the law? They just have to look at the failure of the Biden DOJ.

It’s antisemitic to talk about how Israel developed its nuclear capacity.

the CHIPS act is the grift that keeps on grifting

These problems are often presented by Americans a cultural but in reality they are the problems of global capital.

Taiwanese and Chinese Bosses think that the US system of bribery is too inefficient and that US workers are too expensive compared to their lack of skill and dedication. (See American Factory, it’s really good at laying this out)

These economic realities are different in China and Taiwan because they are not the imperial core. This experiment was doomed to fail because reindustrialization is fighting against the direction of the market and regardless of who controls the coin purse, nobody is going to take on that risk. The CHIPS act and things like it, give away free money which incentivizes failure because in order to derisk the proposition the US government has to make it profitable regardless of the success of the venture. It’s almost like reindustrialization of these key industries needs to be based on a nationalized industrial capacity, especially if we’re going to view it from the basis of national security.

But alas Americans are too capitalist brained to even understand 20th century nationalist logic anymore.

Denis Prager was one of the advocates of the immigration regime in the 60’s (first Soviet aliyah) and late 80’s early 90’s (second Soviet aliyah) that allowed Jews from the Soviet Union to apply for asylum to the United States. The second Soviet aliyah was based on the idea that violent/systemic antisemitism was drastically increasing after the fall of the Soviet Union. Something that didn’t actually happen when revisited by scholars decades later.

If he dies, I’ll be excited to piss on the grave of the man who was ultimately responsible for my ability to emigrate to the US from Post-Soviet Ukraine.

It’s not about serving assets it’s about hiding telemetry from adblockers, dns filters, ip lists, etc.

Almost every B2C company I’ve worked at, I’ve written or had my devs write proxies for whatever trackers we use. The reality is that every company to whom this data matters to figure out their business model will proxy their trackers. If they don’t they need to fire their lead engineers.

It’s actually pretty easy to disguise this traffic even to the point where you can use the originating server/cdn to interleave the tracking with the content source.

Most companies are incapable of actually building something this techical.

The community should knife each other in a more productive way, by designating official slurs with severity (e.g. gossip level 1 ) and designing charts and points systems for users that we can rank their posts on to see if they’re scored enough points to be able to use the slurs (e.g. you need 3 pro-women points to use gossip based on how many “yaas kweeens” category bromides your post contains).

At least the resulting outcomes would be funny and farcical on their face rather than fading into the ephemera of constant pointless struggle sessions for the self importance of 18-25 year olds. We’ll get some new emotes too. I’m old enough to have been on the great grand daddy of all knife fights at the height of it’s power, Shit Reddit Says. Beyond just dunking on people these communities always devolve into the same crap, dreaming up of new ways to perfect morality policing, while driving yourself into alienated rage spirals. Same thing happened with circlebroke/circlebroke2/gameofdolls.

Don’t go gently into that good night, create artifacts of your unhinged power.

Damn I wonder why there’s a real feeling out there that laws are applied unevenly depending on your wealth / social position. Can anyone help me figure out who’s causing this???

The programs you mention expiring along with COVID-era cash welfare, reversed the poverty/food security trend for 2 years and these Dem dipshits literally can’t figure out what’s going on.

The first question would be “why are you at this guy’s front door?”, she can’t answer that in any rational way. That’s the main problem. She literally has no business there in the most literal sense of the word, combined with the fact that Fuentes got doxxed online, and combined with the fact that this is likely not even the first person to try this shit. It’s very unlikely that he would get prosecuted.

The world in which Fuentes goes down for this, is the world where this can be weaponized against women by their stalkers.

Except “people that come up to your door” is literally removing all the context of the situation that this woman provided to the police and in her posts online.
