It's not propaganda. The US went to the moon, this is something sweden can never pull off. What's going on in the US is not a technology problem. It's a problem with politics and business. There is no business or political interest in building up public transportation in this country.

For historical reasons, the U.S. legal system offers citizens an unparalleled number of veto points at which they can attempt to block government projects. Any infrastructure project bigger than painting a schoolhouse thus has to either fight out the reviews and court cases for years, or buy off the opponents, or more likely, both.

The lack of infrastructure definitely affects perception and quality of life. Make no mistake though, currently the united states is one of the technology leaders of the world. Key word: currently.
> The interest rate (as shown on the coupon payment on the bond) will always be positive.

Negative coupons would be quite difficult to implement but having a positive coupon doesn't really mean anything: bonds are not necessarily sold at the nominal price even when they are initially issued.

> More than a decade on from the credit crisis, inflation is still scarce, with wages increasing only modestly despite large drops in unemployment. The ECB, for example, isn’t expected to get to its close-to-2% inflation target over the next decade, according to a market-derived measure.

I find it baffling how everyone talks as if inflation is some incomprehensible force of nature out of anyone's control, even though it's actually trivial to cause inflation by printing money and buying assets.

Then the article links to https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-07-05/germany-s... which states that Germany is being paid to borrow money but refuses (against the advice of economists) to actually do this and invest in anything? What?

>The insurer should demand and receive rights to collect damages from the bank.

If that's possible then yes, that's great. But it sounds like banks refuse to do that. Some banks cap their liability at $500, or $25,000, or 10x annual rent, or 500x annual rent.
That may work in some contexts. In larger organizations most fax machines have no print/scan components, they are conduits to the document management system and from the EHR. Hopefully (??) those get patched more quickly than all-in-one hardware.
I mean, yes, some people are factually incorrect. But I think the general idea is more like, if you have a massively over-determined system of linear equations, you can omit many of the values and still be able to recover them all from the remaining values and knowledge of the equations.

And it's not intuitively obvious which combinations of values allow you to recover which other ones.

For money to have a positive time-value it means that people prefer having any amount of money now over having the same amount of money later, all else equal. It is very hard to argue that this is not the case, because if you have the money now, you can have it later (by not spending it), but also you can spend it now, whereas if you don't have it now and only have it later, you have it later but you can't spend it now. Therefore having it now is always a better alternative, again, all else equal. Negative interest rates can be explained by other reasons that do not imply money having no time-value.

Currently people invest in real estate expect a certain%
return and if it's lower than that they invest in the stock market(or real estate elsewhere).

Now imagine we tax half their profits. This would cause two things. Landlords would convert rental units to owner occupied. Because rental units will now have half the value of a rental unit as it would as owner occupied. Then all rental unit developers would stop building until the scarcity of rental units drove up the leasing cost to make being a landlord profitable again.
Contention: The cultural assumption that saving ought to be rewarded is misguided.

Reasoning: When a bank lets you transform production today into future consumption, it's performing a valuable service for you. Storing your value takes work and the bank deserves to be paid for that service. However, historically, they charged a negative price for this service (positive interest rates), because this service allowed them to make even more money letting other people transform their future production into present consumption. But as fewer people need to borrow and as more people want to save, the market clearing price of savings is approaching and in and cases overshooting 0%.

Extrapolation: There's a fair chance this will be a big deal in the history books we write a century from now. Today's bond prices are telling us that the world is changing. We are going from a world of relative growth, where we needed to delay consumption to juice investment, to a world of a relative stasis, where consumption and investment are in equilibrium. Everyone who said interest rates would bounce back to "normal" after the Great Recession has been wrong. This may be the new normal.
There are four groups of people:

A - "Philadelphia is the capital, and others will agree."

B - "Philadelphia is the capital, but most others won't know that".

C - "Harrisburg is the capital, and others will agree."

D - "Harrisburg is the capital, but most others won't know that."

This technique eliminates groups A and C from consideration, and measures the difference in size between groups B and D.

Both groups B and D think they know something other people don't, but B is wrong and D is right.

In cases where people feel like they have "inside" knowledge, generally speaking it's because they are correct and knowledgeable (group D), not because they are misled (group B).

You often arrive in group D by virtue of having been in group A and then learning the actual truth of the matter.

You can arrive in group B by falling prey to a conspiracy theory, which makes this technique perhaps invalid in such cases? I wouldn't be surprised if the question "Do vaccines cause autism?" had a surprisingly popular answer of "Yes".
Because insurance prices are higher, and they make a percentage of the total payouts. All the insurers make the same actuarial calculations so there's no significant difference in pricing between them. All the banks pay the same insurance price and pass it on, because none of them care about security of your goods or information (according to the parent).

They don't really have a mechanism, and rates are set in the global market - return on capital is mostly a global issue now and something the fed has no control over.

They can target the overnight rate and buy and sell short term funds because they are the majority player there, but even then the actual Fed Funds rate doesn't always equal the target they are trying to set (and not by a few points either).

On the long end they are more constrained. They can print a ton of money to cause inflation, but going the other way just isn't as easy. They aren't the major player there either. Long term treasuries compete with every other debt instrument out there government and private. Those rates are global for the most part

Just look at the late 90s when the Fed tried to push long term rates up and failed horribly. All they did is invert the curve. It is a repeating scenario.

This same conversation comes up about once a decade it seems.
They probably offered to lower his payments.

Exactly, and the world is awash in goods. The only returns are in some real estate markets, where inflation is called appreciation and is underwritten by “greater fools.”
This is absolutely terrible, purely from the perspective from the students. Having your four years of hard work devalued like that, just because of a political move, must really suck.

Worst of all, it's past the matriculation deadline for most universities in the United States, so these students can't even attend other schools that have offered them scholarships, leaving them to either drop out or go into debt.
But that misses the point that one can have negative (nominal) yields which give you very negative (real) yields. So it's not true that "they should always be bigger than inflation."

I think I'm burning out because my job is too easy. I like working. Satisfaction of completing a good job makes me happy.

Writing up UI designed by a designer who doesn't understand my domain's interface guidelines, reexplaining how my software works to the product person during every product meeting, trudging along under leadership that doesn't understand the costs of all the manual things I'm not being empowered to automate and not having new features to show off every 2 weeks is what is making me feel like I'm burnt out.

I've been at the opposite end of things. I've had to sprint through terminals to catch flight after an incredibly slow deployment at a hotel like out of a nail-biting Hollywood thriller. I've crunched through long days before critical events, and then crunched even longer days to work through all the issues we came across afterwards. But these things usually resulted in satisfaction more than frustration.

My symptoms have been physical too. I've vomited before going into work at least a dozen times. I had to start embracing it to get on with my day. Thankfully this is no longer an issue for myself but I couldn't even tell you what had changed to start preventing that.
They're just bad style. It comes back to basics. I believe basics/fundamentals still provide useful guidance, especially aesthetically. You notice ellipses because they're being misused and they stick out. It's an aesthetic thorn caught in a silk scarf. Taking the subsequent step of interpreting it and ascertaining what specific bad thing it means, and what kind of "old" the person is etc. is to some degree unnecessary: it's just bad style. Similar to how at work, both your boring story about your commute, and whatever sexist/discriminatory/offensive thing you were gonna say, are both non-work-related communication I don't want to hear. Or just like how most dangerous things you can do in traffic are also illegal. Just stick to best practices and you tend to avoid most of the pitfalls.

By the way, I remember people in the 90s overusing ellipses, and I found those people insufferably trendy or trying-to-be-mystical or something. "Like wow man... my thoughts... so freeform... and hard to capture in the ... framework, I guess?... of grammar and shit." There was a character on SNL recently, played by Beck Bennett, that was this exact type. I imagine his lines being filled with ellipses. "I just think... differently." Note the definitely-not-accidental reference to Apple's self-consciously iconoclastic marketing strategy of that time. (Edit: namely the 90s, though obviously they've ridden that wave clear on through to today!)

And:

Is it just me or is the service being advertised here(proxyorbit) seem less than ethical or legal? The way it is described and the way terms are worded, it sounds like they are selling access to open proxies that they have found without permission or have even asked permission to use them.

If true, integrating the proxy service into your product like they suggest just seems like a terrible idea for a number of reasons.
It’s exactly the sort of straightforward, low-key advertising I’d like to see more of. “We offer Service. Consider us if you need Service.”

> And can you show me euribor-based longe-term loan where the interest rate is negative?

My old mortgage would have become technically negative a couple of years ago, but I was forced to prepay it due to selling my apartment before the rates went that far down. As I said, my understanding is that my bank would have refused to honor our contract, though, and insist there is a zero floor in my mortgage even if nothing like that was agreed when I took the loan, so in that sense you are right.
Couldn't agree more but I think healthcare is an issue that illustrates this point much better. There is a clear divide. Republicans want to take it away and democrats want to expand it even more than they have expanded it in the previous administration. It's hard to argue against that when your health and life depend on which party wins. The other side is literally trying to kill you.
