It's pretty bad in Canada - you get really convincing scammers pretending to be our taxation agency pushing you to pay back taxes in iTunes Giftcards.
This is an obvious scam, but for people who aren't up on this and fearful of "the man" I expect these kinds of scams work for every 1 in 100k people at best and are still probably lucrative enough for them to keep going.
The answer for the OP problem and the Canadian problem are the same: the government never calls you, Microsoft never calls you, no tech company will ever call you.
But then you're forced to use React...and as soon as you need to do anything outside of what it provides it all falls apart which happens pretty quickly in my experience with it.
This is awsome for web development too! You can have two tabs open to test out sending messages to eachother, you can have an admin and regular session open simultaneously. So usefull!
Firefox Dev Edition with Multi-Account containers is my GOTO web frontend dev browser.
Just take a look at what is happening in Virginia right now - police and veterans are siding with the militias in opposition to the incoming gun laws. I have a hard time believing that the men and women of the military would side with the government when the orders are to kill your neighbours.
Maybe in a failed state like California or New York, but that's not the entirety of America.
Name an actual communist/socialist regime that didn't confiscate weapons first. China, NorKo, Venezuela, Soviet Union - hell, even the Nazi's confiscated weapons from the Jews "legally" before loading them into the trains.
Gun confiscation is the canary in the communist coal mine.
The lesson I learned from Hong Kong is you will never take the 2nd Amendment from me. Just come and try and take them. Take a cursory glance at what is going on in VA right now to know what is in store for you if you do.
> If a right is something that makes society better if people have it.
That's not what a right is. Saying that access to Wikipedia is a right implies the ability to coerce somebody to give it to you if you lack it. At best it's a privilege.
Somebody that knows zilch about Rust with a question: I like to write CLI tools with Go, the built-in libs and the simpleness of the language make it really easy for writing good tools quickly. What advantages does Rust have over Go that one would use it for this purpose?
Personally, I think the best thing to come out of Fortnite is the revenue stream making it feasible for Epic to create its own game store and compete with Valve/Steam.
Steam had been pretty stagnant for years until EGS came along and started poaching exclusives (opinions of this tactic aside) and got them to finally improve their platform.
