Windows 11 is a virus itself. Upgrade your job.

GPUs are expensive because Wall Street thinks they can replace all human labor with chatbots and somehow the starving masses wouldn't just kill them all and smash the chatbots.

Not that bad. Assembly is more verbose than C but the same in structure when it comes to things like this. epoll is easy to use.

It would require the elimination of a lot of handouts, something that is politically extremely difficult.

The handouts are vote buying, whether to ghetto dwellers, old people, or dockworkers. The handouts are what keeps the deep state in power in practice.

Handouts also go to everyone working in the massive military-industrial complex. All those shipwrights building the next useless aircraft carrier in New England are just as much on welfare as people in the ghetto. Same with any industry or company downstream of useless government spending.

I have this amazing tax avoidance scheme going on right now called "not making any money". It's highly effective, but really cuts into the lifestyle, and can't continue forever.
Anyway, back to coding.

Because one day I was writing a fiddly algorithm that used lots of the same ol' for(long i = 0; i < limit; i++) loops and got fed up with typing them, so I made a quick macro. It ended up being so convenient that I put it in my globally-included "insanity.h" header, and now I use it constantly.
C is nice in that it lets you make simple improvements like this without some insane, obtuse coroutine-generator-iterator-factory-object nonsense.

Pathfinding now handles rectangles.
Also pictured is said somewhat annoying function, showing the difference between the trivial circle and the rectangle. It's not particularly hard to write, but requires you to rotate a bunch of vectors in your head while doing it, which is annoying.

On modern hardware, division and square roots are the same speed. It's weird to adjust to.

Mainly, stop the CIA from propping them up. That's the big one nobody seems to remember: the US created and sustains the cartels in order to flood the country with drugs for their evil schemes and profits.

Not even the ones of Indians and shit-powered toilet machines? Or the videos of various world leaders robbing convenience stores dressed as petty thugs from their respective countries? Or the AI deepfakes of famous people giving ridiculous speeches?

In all seriousness, you could grow and sell probiotic cultures. There are a bunch of them that are hard to get your hands on, at least as a consumer in a reasonable form factor for a sane price. It's all the rage now, and for good reason.
And before you say this needs $100k in equipment, bear in mind that there are motherfuckers out there on youtube etching microchips in their garage using machines they cobbled together from junk. Be creative and figure out how to do it on a budget.

Hotdog stands are essentially illegal in most places. That's why there aren't tons of them everywhere, like taco stands in Mexico.

And that's a city that still even gives them out. Most cities don't. Street vending of food is just straight up illegal, which is why "street food" in the US is synonymous with "food truck", the only remaining legal way to kinda-sorta sell street food. Startup costs for a food truck start around a quarter mil and go up from there... to fucking sell hotdogs.

They'll straight up fucking arrest you and seize your van and then fine you tens of thousands of dollars.
There are videos on youtube of pigs shutting down lemonade stands run by 8 year old girls. Treason of the highest kind, where the noose is too kind of punishment.
