There’s a trend here. Social media networks, which, until recently, claimed that legacy media were a thing of the past, are gradually becoming legacy media themselves.

After the Republican midterm disappointments of 2022,
Peter Thiel called for a party that could unite “the priest, the general, and the millionaire”
— a formula that reads, with hindsight, as a precise blueprint for Trump’s second administration:
Christian nationalism, military force deployed at home and abroad, and a financial oligarchy powerful enough to steer the state.
By the election of 2024, the gospel of nostalgia and the gospel of progress had concluded a shor…

The Rise of the Digital Oligarchy
AI has pushed society into a period of tumult and confusion. What comes next will determine if humanity remains the author of its own story.

mikemybytes.com/2022/02/16/jav

Java records & compact constructors
Java records should be no longer considered as a “new concept”. Introduced in early 2020 (with version 14) have already been adopted in many projects and organizations. Yet, while we all know that they provide getters, equals, hashCode, and toString for free, there is one feature that still feels a bit unknown. Let’s see how compact constructors can help us write more idiomatic code. Record construction Recent versions of Java come with concise syntax for declaring records:

Après un an de présence du Rassemblement national, « les esprits RNisés » de l’Eure
Les quatre députés du RN élus en juin 2022 sur cette terre de droite courent les kermesses et les cérémonies, séduisent les maires ruraux et jouent une partition populiste, malgré une influence minime.
