Chinese scientists have no choice but to leave US, top mathematician says
China should focus on developing original technologies and scientific knowledge and leverage the expertise of scientists returning from the United States, according to a top Chinese-American mathematician.Holly Chik (South China Morning Post)

lol yeah, otherwise MAD was WAAAAY ahead of its time 😂
EDIT: huh, does lemmy not support nested quotes or am I just dumb
I can see the different levels of quote, but there's also spaces between them. Too many line breaks maybe?
Your reader might not support nested quotes though.
I don't like to call it boomer humor. That shit was funny in the 90s. For better or worse, it wasn't the jokes that changed, it was our reaction to it.
Thinking specifically of things like "Miss Swan", "The ambiguously gay duo", and "Pat". Although I think only one of those was MAD. Still, we (as in the cisfolk, at least) thought it was funny enough at the time for it to keep getting aired.
It's boomer humor now because our sense of humor matured and adapted...and theirs didn't.
What is this from? Did you print this? Why would you leave the og price and date tho? And no context? C’mon now this is an interesting story. But also, not something actually made by MAD Magazine… unless you work there? For those who don’t know what this is referencing:

And as far as I can tell OPs image is not an actual MAD cover.

I said "seems" because only bits of information have come out and there as been very little analysis. That said, Rational National has the best take I've seen so far.
Actions speak louder than words tbh
He has some sus takes about some things but as far as healthcare and connecting corporate greed to violence against society (that must be fought violently) he's 100% right.
I don't think it's protective to diminish what he did with some tech-bro tweets when he'd barely became an adult. Tweets don't mean shit.
Biden takes his pardons very seriously. He would never pardon someone who stands accused of serious crimes.

TBH I think it was always clear that he was going to be at least somewhat right-coded given that he was so competent with firearms.
I personally don't care what he thinks about pronouns or whatever, unlike Rittenhouse or that subway guy he actually went after one of America's true villains. The right wing violence in this country finally found a legitimate target.
I respect your take, but you'd probably be surprised how many lefties are proficient with firearms. It's liberals that generally hate guns, although even that's less true in the US. Marx himself was adamant that workers should retain the right to own firearms.
The SRA Socialist Rifle Association has over 10k members in the US. Not exactly the 5m members of the NRA, but I'll bet there are more lefties in the NRA than the SRA, just because it is so ubiquitous.
Strange. Every comment I saw on here about him was overwhelmingly positive and as soon as he was identified I've seen a lot of comments calling him right-wing, and anything to distract from the fact that people were coming together to celebrate what he did.
It's almost as if people have received their talking points on how to keep us divided.
I don't give a fuck if he liked right wing media figures. Class solidarity is the most important motherfucking thing we have right now and I'll be damned if we let people distract us from that.
There is a lot more than liking right wing media figures. Class solidarity is a bit of a stretch since his family wealth is closer to what that CEO had than most Americans.
Is the enemy of my enemy my friend? Maybe. I'm just not sure this guy is a great banner carrier. I respect your opinion and realize I'm in the minority. I'd be much happier if he was never caught. I don't desire to see him punished, but I don't see it being helpful if he gets painted as the next Ted Kaczynski. His background is just not helpful.

Well, stop portraying him like that. You're beginning to perpetuate the narrative you don't want to see.
Rightwing?
Bro he was a centrist liberal, believing in things like Darwinism and class warfare.
He was likely triggered because of losing insurance around the age of 26 and the utter disaster it is to manage one's own health insurance. Hence the lashing out at the health insurance industry
If this link is his final post as has been claimed, he was triggered by UnitedHealthCare’s mistreatment of his mother and his own escalating back problems:
Um, really? Darwinism is now the dividing line between right wing and liberal? Hitler was a liberal? Are you unaware of how Nazi propaganda equated Jews with wealthy bankers and merchants to harness class resentment?
I'm not saying he is Hitler, but your bar for right wing is pretty damning of the American educational system.
It's an amazingly accurate stereotype that right wingers change their opinion on an issue the moment it impacts them. I'm sure you're on track with his motive, but that doesn't make him a liberal.

- he's the guy but is irrational, mentally whatever and not the calculated genius the online hype has built him up to be
- he's the guy and intentionally got himself caught / planned to give himself up for a variety of possible reasons (acting as a public figure, mental instability, guilt, sense of righteousness/justice idk)
- he's not the guy and the information on the gun and ID is false or misrepresented
- he's not the guy but a whole slew of planted evidence, fake/exaggerated reporting etc make him out to be the guy, which imo seems like the most conspiracy-nutty take. not saying it's not possible but it seems the least likely.

It's not just a problem of stuff getting acquired. Companies exist to make money, and they have to chase new customers. No matter how good the software was originally, sooner or later you're going to stop being the target demographic. This happens all the time, every single proprietary product I've used eventually changed in a way I did not want it to change. At that point I either have to adapt or find a new product. On top of that, companies go out of business all the time. At that point you lose support for your product, or if it's an online service the product itself disappears.
With open source the situation is much better. As long as there's a community of users who want it to work a particular way, then it's always possible to fork it and keep it working the way you want. A perfect example of this was when GNOME started moving in a direction a lot of people didn't like, and now we have Cinnamon and Mate desktops.
yes but the main point is anyone can pick it up again.
with proprietary it's most often significantly more difficult and legally fraught if not near-impossible.
This is probably a minority opinion, but I think OSS prospers most when there is corporate muscle behind it.
A company with paid engineers that puts engineering time into fixing and bettering open source software can possibly be a good company.
Closed source ends up being the worst of all worlds. If there is an issue, you're stuck waiting for someone else to possibly fix it. At least in open source, either you can try to fix it, or you can pay someone else to try to fix it.
At the end of the day, I think a lot of the Linux success actually comes down to this.
I'm so mad that my open source software made by a single developer in his free time who loves coding and helping other people is slightly worse in quality than a multi-million dollar dedicated project.
