PHP dynamic sites, Ruby on Rails, or MVC in whatever language works for you is really what we should be doing

Collapse the govt, what could possibly go wrong

President makes 400,000 a year for a min of 4 years (1,600,000) and a max of 8 years (3,200,000) so I'd probably ask for 5,000,000 a year for them to call the shots and an extra 1,000,000 for anything I don't think will get me reelected.

4 years of 5mil nets me 20mil and 8 nets me 40mil. I stash that away in a moderate dividend spread and I'll be just fine for the overwhelming majority of my life.

I mean. Americans have shown they'll work off hours, that's not the issue. It's generally that it's expected to be compensated well and to make up the hour deficit elsewhere in the week if that happens

Making money is a capitalist adjacent idea. The premise that we need money to figure out how to allocate resources is foolish

For some it helps them fall asleep. I had a friend in HS who would drink a monster before bed. I have a friend who currently only has coffee after 5pm to make sure they don't fall asleep earlier. It's anecdotal for sure but it works for them

The software industry would stall out, mass unemployment, dramatically more car crashes. Coffee, black and green tea, most soda, and some drugs would disappear from shelves and stores. Coffee shops would all close, you'd be able to get pretty much just water with your big Mac, midol takers would be furious and in pain, ADHD people would have to try harder to fall asleep. For lack of a better term, there would be a rubber band effect apocalypse while the shadow markets got set up and supplies

You could use proton cloud storage to do 90% of the same thing you just would have to have local editors installed

DRM also costs paying customers performance generally

It's easier said than done for sure

For a lot of open source at the moment the root level readme is fundamentally the homepage too. It absolutely should include screenshots, maybe even a gif. If your software has a GUI or TUI it should follow that a concise visual will do more to explain it's usage than a text document
