If he does that, he will lose the support of his whole party. We’ve done that once before, that’s how we ended up in this mess.

That’s my point, the only easy thing to do is the platform they have the mandate for. They have basically unlimited power to do so.

Usually a heterogenous party is achieved by diluting your message and doing “big tent” and making conflicting promises. Tisza did the opposite, they sharpened their message and made barely any promises, taking great care to limit them to what the whole electorate actually 100% agrees on.

Which includes wealth taxes for the richest and anti-corruption.

It’s actually a good question, he wants wealth taxes and term limits, but waves Hungarian flags around and quotes Reagan.

He’s a hardline pro-EU nationalist who likes socialist policies and hates rich people.

Magyar confirmed in his victory speech that he will in fact start those cases.

Or rather the independent juicidary and the new “National Wealth Reclamation Agency” will.

Not really, there is no oligarch base behind him to speak of, and his party is very heterogenous. Imagine LGBT activists and hardline nationalists together. It would be a miracle - not of the good kind - if he was able to get away with not enacting the anticorruption agenda he got elected on.

They can ban payments from the EU to Pornhub

Not the entire supply, just enough to affect prices. Basically the stock market but without even the appearance of it not being manipulated to hell.

And it’s not Russia, or not just them, anyone with enough money to play can fuck people with sub-8 figure net worths over.

But that increases the money supply. This way they can take money from other people. For example Russia can get USD without printing and inflating RUB.

To make money

You buy enough to raise the price, announce that you’re buying it, schmucks try to get in on the wave, you dump while tweeting diamond hands.

Repeat.

The supply of an asset is the volume of that asset available for purchase.

If I buy all of that, supply becomes zero.

You misunderstand, if I own the GDP of a world power, what’s preventing me from buying a ton of Bitcoin and fucking with the supply that way?

Crypto nowadays looks like a pump and dump free for all.

Yeah, but a currency practically needs a military and an economy to back it.

Who is going to stop me from fucking with the bitcoin supply if I own the US economy?

Claude code has them, it’s just that this guy apparently doesn’t know how to do Terraform either

It’s not unheard of, in certain cases in certain more civilised states it does happen.

The state should be able to sue as layoffs put strain on the social system.

Not really. The US has legal slavery among other things, many EU states have age of consent laws you shouldn’t look up, and so on.

Engage the argument instead IMO.

I used e/OS on an FP4 since Google started fucking with the power button, but the Danish government apps ban anything not made by an American megacorp. Had to reinstall Google Android.

If it’s anywhere in the public sector it might be a problem.

The guy who put the chat bot on the server, and then that guy may sue the other one if applicable.

I’m an engineer using Terraform and Claude Code as well in a much larger and more expensive setup than his.

You do not let Claude Code run terraform apply, it has zero benefits. All it does is that it runs the command and obscures the output. Most of the time is going to be spent in waiting for the automation anyway, most of the effort that you can spare is before running apply.

Also:

applying delete protections to Terraform and AWS permissions, and moving the Terraform state file to S3 storage instead of his local machine

These both take like 20 seconds, and should be in the getting started manual of Terraform and AWS databases respectively. Setting up remote state is 5 minutes in vanilla Terraform, 30 seconds in something like Terragrunt.

Also, use OpenTofu, stop supporting corporate acquisitions, also takes zero effort and money.

And finally:

most sysadmins will spot the baseline issues with Grigorev’s approach, including granting wide-ranging permissions to what’s effectively a subordinate of his, as well as not scoping permissions in a production environment to begin with.

No, not subordinate. Tool. Two big differences with it. A subordinate might understand more than you do about the code, a tool will guess and rely on you. And the second one is that you practically can’t separate your and your tools’ permissions, I mean Claude Code will supposedly ask you if it can use some tool or another and you can whitelist actions it can take, but it will never be completely locked out of destroying your database the way you can lock another user out.
