I thought this too, and it's only half true. A bigger cage doesn't fully work. But you can invest in training them to be safe, that's how we learnt. Before they are 3 you can train them like a dog, with positive reinforcement, and predictable and infrequent boundaries. This leads to more fun for everyone, since you are trying to get towards a situation that work for everyone. I try to learn to ignore whining until they learn to communicate. Watch TV. Multitask effectively. Do what parents to 8 do, but as a parent of 2.
Anyway I'm still learning but you can keep your personality and some of your hobbies.

GPT detectors also agree
All the paper's show they don't work. Because there is just no way to be sure, and 100% sure will especially so. https://x.com/emollick/status/1681481069210501120 https://t.co/2L90UqRnpx
All the commercial services claim theirs don't.
This is pretty confusing for a lot of people, especially teachers.

They probably signed a grant contract that has a right to audit, this is probably backed by a court order to allow access to perform the audit. Pretty standard, although usually it doesn't come to police.

When has this slow and gradual reform worked in history, especially for something hard like shrinking government or anti-corruption efforts.

the GDP to debt ratio, is a function of debt. Not just GDP. People seem to forget. And government can in theory control our debt, the GDP is in large part out of government control.

Trump intends to appoint more than half his cabinet from tech-bros. So I'd say that the people doing the work for trump are naturally aligned with Elon.

This counts news about food recalls, not food recalls that are not reported in the news. Actual recalls are not going up.

Here's a great comment

It is by now common knowledge that Russian intelligence very nearly took over Deutsche Bank without anyone in the German government even knowing (or caring), and while pressuring the German financial regulator into pursuing a criminal investigation into the Financial Times' journalists trying to figure out why it didn't make sense.
What is less commonly understood (and in part only now being revealed) is what a combination of hilarious disaster and glorious victory the Russian intelligence operation in question was. Having stumbled onto Jan Marsalek, the co-founder of Wirecard

it's not clear why this is happening
It seems clear to me. We need people to work. Naturally, they don't want to work. We arrange the economy so they are in position where they have to work. This is called economic growth and full employment.
It couched in language of, "pursue full employment", "worker shortage", "keep the median wage down", "increase the labour force".
He has announced the Pomeo and Haley won't be joining this time. https://x.com/wikileaks/status/1855399528909701537
I'm say this is the Deep state category, good to have it confirmed that they will not be joining.
With all the category listed, remove the ones he no longer needs and keep the ones he still needs for executing or passing bills.
Of course he will need his guy to get elected again in 4 years to make sure he doesn't get put in jail or his business or legacy destroyed.

He has very old interviews where he talks about loyalty and punishing disloyalty. It seems very important to him, and it always has been.
To answer my own question: not so easily, but they have a plan https://goodauthority.org/news/why-the-president-cant-just-fire-bureaucrats/

Can't Trump just utter his old catchphrase "you're fired" ?

What if political partisanship and DEI is banned, at risk of being fired and losing all funding or special legal status. It worked somewhat for De Santis with Disney and with the Supreme Court with Universities. This could work in a few ways: DEI for political views, or maybe making journalists be sued for lying, or maybe you can have courts audit internal chats of journalists.
Most organisations would bend the knee if funding/firing is at stake (and it should be). It should also apply to all grant, university, NGO, contracts, etc.

Indeed but it was in 2020, so he delayed by N days

I suppose that may be true. Or he could be situationally brave. Or he never planned to keep his campaign promises.
You are right, there are many other interpretations.

Well, one of his major campaign promises was to release the JRK files. But he unapologetically broke his promise because a deep state person said no.
His motto used to be "you are fired" and he was elected to fire people (drain the swamp), and given executive power to do it. It was literally a memo or tweet away. He should have fired at least one government employee every day via twitter but did not.
These just don't sound like someone who is very courageous?

Yeah, past performance is a better predictor than present promises
But you've got to do it. We need the next generation of shmucks. Our ancectors did it for us, and they had it way harder. So why can't we cope?
