/r/army is actually for the most part okay with it but there's still some seething
Good to see the important issues are being tackled.
I'm sure you took that attitude when it was changed the first time.
I wonder how much money this will cost the DoD and the rest of the American peopleโฆ.
What a waste of money? This administration is stupid and petty.
Good to know that they're laser-focused on government efficiency.

For anyone unfamiliar, the eponymous "crises" in the title are NOT about the evil orange man who is bad - Notes on the Crises is a political economy newsletter started a few years ago by Nathan Tankus to comment on the intersecting global economic disasters triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Nathan is a @TracingWoodgrains style "truth neurodivergent" not a wingcucked political hack. He's just a big giant dork who does things like FOIA request the minutes from all US Federal Reserve Board meetings from 1967-1973
Nathan looks like this, and I would believe almost anything that he writes, because it is backed by powerful neurodivergent spirits.
When he writes about the COBOL code in the treasury department, I'm confident he's talking to beardy old men who write and maintain that code.
I would also like to clarify some confusion on social media. The issue with understanding and grasping a COBOL system is not knowing COBOL, as a programming language, in the abstract. Nor is it, god help me, something that AI can "do" because you fired one of these chatbots up and got some code that could compile when you asked "write me some COBOL code". The issue is understanding the specific physical limitations of the system, the way that it interacts with the "Business Logic" of the code and a million other contextual factors.
There is specific code which tells you where to direct specific payments in specific ways and the structures, and why they are structured the way they are, requires deep contextual knowledge. This is "business logic". The entire issue with COBOL and why it has been such a struggle to maintain it is that COBOL systems (both private and public) developed for decades with very little documentation, have a million different path dependent coding choices. Mar Hicks 2020 article in Logic Magazine "Built to Last" is worth a read on this topic.
This is what I meant yesterday when I referenced that 30 different COBOL systems at Treasury had developed their own "dialects" and they launched Payment Application Modernization (PAM), which among other things, unified them. What they unified was the business logic of those systems (as well as likely other factors, most notably the physical architecture of the systems they ran on). Part of me wishes they didn't modernize with PAM because those 30 different and distinct systems would have been more secure from their infiltration. PAM processed 4.7 trillion dollars of payments in 2024.
It's also true that some similar issues can emerge with other more recent programming languages and the way "business logic" emerges if a mission critical IT system developed using a more recent programming language. But COBOL is unique; after all it's literally "common business-oriented language". So while knowing the COBOL programming language is better than not knowing it, it does not make that much of a difference with these young Musk programmers mucking about.

Some nonsense article has come out which cites:
A number of people connected to the Trump team have talked about "regime change" in the UK
'a number of people talking' holy shit total journ*list death
I didn't read it but basically it's about orange daddy wanting to get rid of
starmer so naturally it caused some spilled cups of tea in the cute twink subreddit.
regime change? heh good luck with th-
Is Keir Starmer really the last bastion of hope for a world without fascist leaders? I'm scared.
Hey remember like six months ago when he released 1700 violent offenders and suspended due process in order to jail people who commented emojis on facebook posts?
- man who can't purchase a knife without submitting a video of him next to his passport
I would think a UK headline "United Kingdom wants a regime change in the US" might prove popular.

Some choice quotes from the top food scientists of reddit
/u/Brujo-Bailando writes
Make Americans drink poop milk again!
/u/ahifun writes
Milk souring is a separate process from spoiling, as it occurs when lactose splits into different acids. But with that falsehood out of the way, I'm sure this genius knows a lot about microbiology. He could definitely name the good/bad bacterias he's talking about straight from memory, doubly so for his nutrients and enzymes.
/u/KT0QNE jokerposts his milkifesto
People have been drinking raw milk for thousands of years.
People have been eating fermented milk products for thousands a year, leading some, not all, to develop a gene that prolongs their infantile ability to break down lactose based on the trace amounts found in processed milk. Dairy producing countries pre-pasturation did not have raw milk drinking cultural traditions outside of farmland, as refridgeration to slow down the growth of bacteria of raw milk didn't exactly exist.
Such as? What are they? How much is lost?
A true blue fentposter /u/Cliphdiver adds:
@K the FDA!
Is it safe or does it need to be strained? I hope they have a strainer from the future that can filter microbes smaller than milk's existing fats.
Past ignorance does not somehow make the repeating the same stupidity less ignorant. The police comes because raw milk farmers are a threat to society, and honestly they should be shot where they stand so we don't have to hear them whining that they can't profit off selling people dangerous bullshit. Libertarians can't comprehend this because they're stupid enough to be libertarians in the first place.
/u/huntsvillekan posts the following legitament historical account detailing why you can't trust dairy farmers not to kill people, ergo why they must be regulated by force under capitalism: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/surprisingly-intolerant-history-milk-180969056/
Some highlights: 8000 yearly deaths in NYC from unregulated milk farmers, "The Greeks castigated barbarians for their gluttonous desire for dairy...in Rome, milk was widely regarded as low-status food because it was something only farmers drank," "
It would take both technological innovation and a change in social mores to popularize animal milk...milk was one of the first foods to be truly affected by industrialization"
So is mass milk drinking thousands of years old and ubiquitous, or a product of the industrial revolution. Anyway...
/u/chobbs2006 comes in explaining how raw milk is their latest schizo-cure to the new in-vogue hypochondriac illness: GERD!
It's like these fad-diet chasers come out of a factory somewhere
Most of the remaining commenters of note just have anecdotes about living on a farm, drinking raw milk, and using a fricking cheesecloth on their already contaminated milk to get the shit-chunks out.
Happy drinking!

Israel has been ranked last in the 2024 Nation Brands Index (NBI), placing it among the world's most underdeveloped and unstable countries, according to the report published by Anholt Nation Brands Index on Tuesday.
The findings, based on a comprehensive survey conducted between July and August 2024, highlight a growing global sentiment that perceives Israel as a destabilizing force rather than an innovative and progressive nation.
The NBI survey, which gathered insights from over 40,000 respondents across 70 countries, ranked nations based on six key dimensions: governance, culture, people and society, exports, immigration and investment, and tourism.
Governance measures perceptions of a country's political stability, transparency, and security. Culture evaluates a nation's heritage, arts, and sports. People and society assess friendliness, openness, and global employability.
Exports focus on technological innovation, product quality, and economic influence. Immigration and investment examine the country's business environment, attractiveness for relocation, and foreign investment potential.
Tourism considers a nation's appeal as a travel destination, the beauty of its architecture, and the general willingness of respondents to visit.
According to the NBI report, Israel performed poorly across all categories, particularly among younger respondents, with Generation Z overwhelmingly ranking it at the bottom.
The study also revealed a growing aversion to Israeli products, with many respondents indicating they were unwilling to purchase goods labeled "Made in Israel." This suggests a de facto boycott that could pose a serious risk to Israeli exports and international business operations.
Despite its reputation as the "Start-Up Nation," Israel's technological leadership is not widely recognized beyond specific industry circles. European respondents, for example, ranked Israel lower in technological advancements than the United Arab Emirates, reinforcing the idea that Israel's self-perception does not align with how it is viewed globally.
According to Motti Scherf, founder of Brand IL: "Israel has lost its legitimacy in the international community and has been cast into the backyard of global affairs. It is time to acknowledge the failure of traditional public diplomacy and adopt innovative nation-branding models."
Although Israel maintains high objective indicators, such as a GDP per capita that is 80% higher than the nations it is grouped with and a life expectancy of 83 years, its ranking remains exceptionally low. Only 40% of the countries ranked alongside Israel are democracies, suggesting that Israel's democratic character is not perceived as a distinguishing advantage.
The Palestinian issue also continues to impact international sentiment. For the first time, Brand IL, a private initiative, ensured Palestine was included in the rankings.
While Palestine was placed below Israel, it received greater sympathy in the Muslim world, China, and among younger generations. Additionally, the NBI report highlights a broader trend in which conflict nations are penalized equally, regardless of the context.
Countries involved in ongoing disputes, including Russia, Ukraine, Israel, and the Palestinian Authority, were all placed at the bottom of the index, reinforcing the global perception that such nations contribute to instability rather than progress.
In response to Israel's deteriorating global image, the private initiative Brand IL has launched a $100 million rebranding effort aimed at reversing negative perceptions and repositioning Israel on the international stage.
The initiative seeks to establish a development financial institution, utilizing blended capital from governmental, business, and philanthropic sources. The focus will be on launching outreach programs in key target countries, particularly among younger demographics, to unlock new markets for Israeli technologies and innovations.

vincent draws his match with magnus, meaning.......bozo magnus is out, from his own tournament

hikaru fails to win and gukesh refuses to win. after 3 draws, their 2nd tiebreaker is going on
edit: gukesh is victorious, in their bid to not win a match. (he lost if you are neurodivergent)
back to the main highlight, world no 2 caruana vs no. 31 sindarov
neighbor caruana accepts draw in a totally winning position and when i say total, totally. -5.3 on the eval bar winning. maybe the reason was he had a min on the clock and sindarov had whopping 24. whatever is the uzbeck version of voodoo, its working
they then had a nailbiting tiebreaker - that was a draw too and are currently playing their 2nd one. sindy will win it!

Sounds like projection on your part.
I'm never going to be strong enough to repel a Nazi, but generalizing here, keep up your health. It is beneficial in so many ways I won't bother to list them. Everyone on reddit hates me because I always bring up cooking your own food, not smoking, not drinking, getting exercise every day, giving up fast food and ultraprocessed stuff. It's all key to keeping your body and teeth healthy over the years.
The effects are cumulative - one day you wake up and you have some godawful chronic disease, or your ticker isn't what it could be, or you need yet another root canal, and you are slowed down and inconvenienced by having to use the medical system all the time, take pills, etc.
Also, get an annual check up if only so you have a record of your own stats. It's actually interesting to compare your numbers year to year.
As a nazi myself, this is all really good advice. Regardless of what ideology you have, everyone should abandon unhealthy lifestyles and unhealthy food. Most fast food/door dash and other stuff you get in groceries are deliberately kept unhealthy in order to have a population that can't resist and constantly kept broke and in debt. (not to mention how immoral some of the sources of this food are.) You don't need to be shredded but eating well and working out daily with basic calisthenics goes a long way.
As someone who's immunocompromised from a COVID vaccine injury, I've learned that sometimes the best choice isn't to fight head-on, but to hide and protect myself. It's a hard reality, but sometimes survival means stepping back, staying safe, and waiting for a time when I'm stronger.
In Harry Potter, Harry and his friends often had to choose between direct confrontation and retreat. Hiding, like when Harry and his allies went into hiding in The Deathly Hallows, was often the wisest choice. It wasn't about surrender, but about preserving their strength for when it was truly needed.
Similarly, Anne Frank showed us the power of survival. She and her family lived in hiding, and though it was painful and isolating, it was their only chance to stay alive. Sometimes, hiding isn't a sign of weakness; it's a strategy to make sure we can continue the fight later.
For me, hiding isn't giving up. It's about protecting my health and holding onto hope for a better, safer future.
(OP) this is real and valid, but PLEASE try to avoid citing transphobic authors. Stay safe!

: Capy gnawing on innocently goombling dramatards

This is the shocking moment a woman was attacked by a capybara while swimming in Colombia.
Astonishing video shows how a paddle with the huge rodent took a sinister turn when it launched itself at the swimmer and attacked.
The young victim could be seen in phone footage raising her finger to the animal to warn it to keep its distance.
In an instant it then jumped on her back and seemingly gnawed at her head before she went under the water.
The woman's cries could be heard as the large animal pushed her out of the frame while snapping at her.
In a stroke of luck, a man arrived on the bank and grabbed a stick to defend the victim as she came to shore, sobbing.
She continued wailing off camera as the massive rodent returned to bobbing quietly in the lake.
