<p>Wow that api looks fantastic! Bravo!<p>I'd like to read an even more thorough overview of how it works and all the gotchas before I'd consider using this 'in production' but the API looks very easy to use and very elegant.<p>EDIT: just hit the section on portability, seems like you would always have to use that API, yeah? I feel like when you are writing network code you simply have to make it portable from the get-go. I guess I'm always thinking about having it run on client machines.</p>

<p>I agree with your points in general but I'm still confused - how do you connect any of these to the USA tariffs? I'm specifically asking you how you can justify this statement "I blame Canadian leadership [for the tariffs]."</p>

<p>> force and strength<p>The problem is that the USA is capable of far more force and strength than Canada is. It's like an abusive relationship, but one where due to geography, Canada cannot simply leave.</p>

<p>Yes, the USA has massive leverage over Canada on basically every front. We are a small child standing next to a massive person with a gun. But what is the point of destroying us?<p>Our economy is already down. All of our tech elite move to Silicon Valley. Our energy infrastructure cant get off the ground. The USA dictates so much of what Canada is able to do.<p>What is the point of squeezing us more? We have so little we can offer you.<p>We've already given you the lives of our soldiers as we follow you into pointless wars. What more do you want? The pennies in our pockets?</p>

<p>One of the most critical elements of a shell script is that the source can be easily examined.<p>Bringing this into your system seems like a huge liability.<p>The syntax of shell scripts is terrible, but we write it to do simple things easily without needing more external tools.<p>git-bash on windows is generally good enough to do the kind of things most shell scripts do.<p>This tool feels like the worst of both worlds: bash syntax + external dependency.</p>

<p>The root issue here is children not coming out to their parents. If we improve that metric, we can begin to improve all other metrics. Ie: the parent can help the child discover appropriate peer groups</p>
