Ha! If you're anywhere near Chicago, I might be able to get you on a ride along when things quiet down. It'll change you...

Not sure about Bigfoot, but yes, this is a fairly well funded and organized insurgency. Most definitely.

Yes I have. Right in the thick of it. I've seen a lot of destruction at the hands of some very bad people.

I respectfully disagree. I think the looters/insurgents are causing the chaos.

Being a very long time Delphi and FreePascal user with tens of thousands of lines of code in active use today, I never understood why pascal wasn't running way out front of Go, Rust, Java and all these other performant languages. It's so straight forward and such a pleasure to work with.

I believe that permanent job loss in the US is going to be catastrophic and these jobs will not be coming back anytime soon. I hope I'm wrong of course, but I don't think I am.

My perspective is that of a business owner. Our business was very intertwined with trade shows, corporate events and various sectors of the entertainment business. And I'm just following the dots and the branches to the final results of what my company used to do and it's staggering.

I'm looking at NYC, Chicago and Los Angeles through the lens of my business and without devolving into a political discussion...It's over...I throw my arms up.

Though I've never seen it happen, but it is said that the water recedes significantly in advance of an incoming tsunami. I guess we're seeing that now. I hope it was all worth it.
