I’m starting to think that Angular2 was designed by a bunch of C++ programmers on cocaine. How else to explain the endless boilerplate, the inexplicable error messages, inscrutable programming conventions and buckets of meaningless ritual? It’s like something Microsoft could have come up with in the 1990s.

I think it’s really very badly designed or rather it’s not designed at all and is all about exporting cognitive load onto programmers instead. Have these people never heard of abstraction?

WTF happened to Angular?

“It’s not insane to look to Russian propaganda outlets and Internet trolls, in order to speculate about the Kremlin’s preferences and plans, but there is much that’s unnerving about just how Washington reads the tea leaves of the Russian media.”

“Trump continued to side with Wikileaks and Russia, and against Intelligence.”

Seriously, Liberals, when are you going to realise that the intelligence agencies are playing you for fools? The unclassified evidence presented so far has been laughable. The evidence presented by CrowdStrike has also been shown to be seriously wanting.

The upshot should be obvious, the spooks are not your friends, the intelligence agencies are not your friends. They never have been and they never will be. They’ll lie to you because that’s what they do.

P.S. Eric Garland is a batshit loon.

Just look at how many folks on the left have started to believe, without evidence, that Russia “meddled” in US elections. Look at the leftists in your wall/stream…

That beautifully serves the intelligence services by re-creating the old arch-enemy – Russia (making war acceptance butter-smooth) and distracts from a dozen other issues, including WHY the Dems have lost and why they continue to go in the same effed up direction.

Not to mention that the big winners of Trump’s election are still Wall Street and big oil… How the eff does this work?

My Nexus 7 2012 has been pretty much unusable since I upgraded it to Android Lollypop.

My Nexus 7 2012 has been pretty much unusable since I upgraded it to Android Lollypop. I think KitKat was the last usable version of Android for low powered devices so I’m thinking of flashing it and downgrading it. Either that or maybe trying to install something else.

So does anyone have any experience in using a different OS with an old Nexus tablet? Any tips or suggestions?

GRIZZLY STEPPE is a piece of freely downloadable malware written in Ukraine. Its real name is P.A.S.

The FBI outsourced the work of detecting the hacking of the Democratic party network to their friends in the private company CrowdStrike. They in turn went on to identify this software as one of the telltale fingerprints of Russian intelligence agency involvement rather than, say, any kind of hacker of any background located anywhere in the world. The FBI took their word for it and never undertook to do their own investigation of the compromised network.

The software used in the break in was an old version of P.A.S. Apparently the latest version has more features and is even more versatile.
