I suspect Trump, for all his idiocy, is several steps ahead of anyone else at this time. He knows the dictatorship he's established is most likely going to be challenged in blood and fire. He's getting the troops ready for that day when the opposition hasn't even realized what they need to do.

Remember when they saddled people with lots of debt on the promise of an education being worthwhile, then crashed the economy twice in a dozen years bailing themselves out with the state's credit rating and your people's future? Fun times.

Was gonna actually do some studying for a new cert today but ended up spending the whole day going through mariadb logs and finding out what wasn't working and doing my best to salvage it. Feels like the day is a write-off unless...nah, probably a bad idea to put "broke my database but dw I fixed it again, hire me" on my resume.
@Comrade Ferret I've spent more than a few hours optimizing mariadb, but I've arrived at a point where I see approximately 30 slow queries out of 40 million with an average transaction rate of 1700tp/s. And I'm not doing it to earn a cert but for things to run smoothly and responsively, i.e., real world.

The last time I felt truly represented by a movement was the r/antiwork shit a few years back. Most politics since then including the shooting of the United Healthcare guy and whatever the fuck Mamdani or AOC are doing feel custom-made for the median zoomer that can comfortably support themselves.
r/antiwork was obviously never a substantial or well-developed thing, it was a fucking subreddit, but what the fascists did to it was they forcibly removed it from the bounds of discourse and they then proceeded to deny that there had ever been anything there in the first place.
So what happens now is that anyone who can't work, who can't find work, who doesn't want to work (goddess forbid all three) necessarily has to be suicidal, because there isn't really another choice. This is very deliberate mental warfare by the fascists. When you feel that there's an irreconcilable divide between yourself and those who can be self-sufficient, that is also the work of the fascists.
I don't really think about movements anymore. I just want to hurt people.
If your theories of immigration and altruism do not include costly exchanges up to and including the death of the altruist, then the social sciences are lagging the biological sciences by roughly 60 years.

For business owners new to Singapore’s regulatory environment, ACRA’s requirements might seem complex. However, with a clear understanding and support from corporate secretarial services, staying compliant is achievable and can be integrated seamlessly in
Running a private limited company in Singapore requires more than just managing daily operations. The Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) mandates strict compliance rules that every company must follow, no matter its size. These are not optional guidelines but legal obligations. Non-compliance can lead to penalties, reputational damage, or even the risk of your company being struck off.
For business owners new to Singapore’s regulatory environment, ACRA’s requirements might seem complex. However, with a clear understanding and support from corporate secretarial services, staying compliant is achievable and can be integrated seamlessly into your operations.
The Importance of ACRA Compliance
Compliance with ACRA is more than just administrative paperwork. It ensures transparency, fostering trust among investors, banks, and business partners. Accurate filings provide a reliable snapshot of your company, while errors or delays can undermine credibility and attract scrutiny.
Singapore’s reputation as a global business hub is built on its robust yet straightforward regulations. Whether you’re a small startup or a large enterprise, compliance levels the playing field. Failing to meet ACRA’s standards can result in fines, audits, or director disqualification. Many businesses rely on corporate secretarial services to manage these obligations while focusing on growth.
Key Compliance Obligations
1. Appointing a Company Secretary
Every company must appoint a company secretary within six months of incorporation. This person must be a Singapore resident and cannot be the sole director. The secretary handles critical tasks like filing statutory documents and updating ACRA on company changes. Engaging corporate secretarial services ensures this role is managed with expertise and efficiency.
2. Maintaining Statutory Registers
Companies must keep accurate registers of shareholders, directors, secretaries, and auditors, as well as records of share allotments and charges. These documents must be current and available for inspection. Inaccuracies can lead to disputes or regulatory issues down the line.
3. Annual General Meetings (AGMs)
Unless exempt, private companies must hold an AGM within 18 months of incorporation and annually thereafter. At the AGM, directors present financial statements to shareholders for approval. Small companies can opt out by circulating statements within five months of the financial year-end, but this requires formal documentation.
4. Filing Annual Returns
After the AGM or circulation of financial statements, companies must file an annual return with ACRA, detailing officers, share capital, and financial compliance. Private companies have seven months from the financial year-end to file. Late submissions trigger fines starting at $300, with penalties increasing over time.
5. Keeping Proper Accounting Records
All transactions must be documented, with records like invoices, receipts, and bank statements retained for at least five years. These records support financial reporting and compliance with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS). Poor record-keeping can lead to complications during audits.
Prompt Updates to ACRA
Changes to company details—such as directors, share capital, or registered address—must be reported to ACRA within 14 days. Many companies mistakenly assume these updates can wait until the annual return, leading to avoidable penalties.
How Corporate Secretarial Services Help
While directors bear ultimate responsibility for compliance, corporate secretarial services can handle the administrative workload. These professionals manage filings, maintain registers, and track deadlines, ensuring nothing is overlooked. They also provide reminders for AGMs and annual returns, making them a valuable asset for businesses without dedicated compliance staff. Directors must choose a reliable provider, as they remain accountable for any errors.
Common Compliance Pitfalls
Even well-meaning companies can stumble. Frequent mistakes include:
Missing annual return deadlines, especially in the first year.
Failing to appoint a secretary within six months.
Not updating ACRA on changes to directors or shareholders.
Assuming AGM exemptions apply without proper documentation.
Disorganized record-keeping, which creates issues during audits.
These errors often arise from underestimating ACRA’s strict timelines. Proactive planning can prevent costly consequences.
Building a Compliance Framework
To streamline compliance, adopt these habits:
Review statutory registers quarterly to ensure accuracy.
Plan AGMs or exemptions well in advance.
Organize financial records monthly to avoid year-end stress.
Use digital tools to track filing deadlines.
Regularly consult your company secretary to address potential issues.
These practices make compliance a natural part of your business operations.
Why Compliance Matters
Compliance may feel like an extra task, but it’s a cornerstone of Singapore’s business ecosystem. Transparent filings and accurate records enhance your company’s credibility, making it easier to attract investors, secure financing, or build partnerships. Non-compliant companies face fines, legal challenges, and missed opportunities.
Conclusion
ACRA compliance is a non-negotiable responsibility for private limited companies in Singapore. From appointing a company secretary to maintaining accurate records, these obligations protect your business and its stakeholders. While the rules are strict, they’re manageable with the right approach. Corporate secretarial services can lighten the load, but directors must stay proactive. In Singapore’s competitive market, compliance builds the trust and stability needed for long-term success.
Being in business in Singapore is associated with numerous roles, including legal and regulatory requirements of which companies must comply to remain legal.

@sendpaws I have kept versia on the back of my mind for a while now. It seems like a better approach to a federation protocol than ActivityPub is. Haven't gotten around to complete writing a sane software for it yet though.
