EDIT: Fake screenshot about some facts from the Palworld development, very loosely based on a really interesting blog post from the dev that's linked in the post body. ( programming.dev )

UPDATE: So, apparently it's mostly fake, taken from this article [translation] (where they even mention some kind of VCS)....

I'm a DevOps person by trade, and I have been playing a lot of Palworld. This is my worst nightmare and I have no idea how any team bigger than one person could have done anything without basic source control. Guess it just goes to show that nobody cares about the details as long as you ship.

The vote to vacate a speaker can happen pretty easily, so as long as the Freedom Caucus and company still want him out, he's not safe. He could drag it out maybe but that's about it.

Your idealistic idea of what "democracy" means has never existed in the United States, but if you want anything close to it, you're going to have to win it within the confines of the current system. The right seems to understand that, and they're close to succeeding. Throwing your hands up and not voting for the only realistic chance of not devolving into an autocracy is a choice too, regardless of the principle you're standing on to do it.

I'm very uncomfortable with the phrase "brain mash".

But where do you draw the line in a way that wouldn't be heavily abused for political purposes? I'm not very interested in the idea of evaluating people's morbidity as a qualification for office. There are succession procedures and chains of authority to handle these things. It's one thing to argue about age's impact on current mental or physical faculties if those are inhibiting performance, but I do not want hypothetical deaths factoring in.

Years later in 2021, the Daisy's Destruction video regained infamy after it was found in Josh Duggar's possession.

Just in case you needed to hate the Duggars anymore.
