Forcing down inflation requires raising interest rates as a policy, yes, and that will result in people offering LESS revolving credit, which will decrease the net flow of the siphon. But seriously if you think 2% inflation helps out your credit card at 10% APR... Maybe you should start maxing out your credit card?

> The debt to wealth ratio of the top wealth decile is, obviously, a lot smaller

That's not obvious to me. Donald Trump is probably in very poor shape debt-to-wealth-wise relative to myself. The unbanked in the US are doing literally infinitely better debt-to-wealth-wise than I am.

Anyways, you are strictly thinking of personal debt. There is institutional debt that the wealthiest have either indirect access to, or benefit disproportionately from, for example corporate debt, if you are in the C-suite, or municipal debt, if you own a firm that is frequently obtaining grants to do stuff, or literally banks, if you are a major shareholder in banks, financial instruments that require low-interest debt, if you participate in a hedge fund, etc.
It only disappears if there is a catastrophic failure. The likelihood for such thing to happen when you write a huge comment are less than jackpot in Las Vegas, a sensible risk tradeoff for better development experience and cost.

Absolutely it should be as secure as possible, but the fundamental concept of what a container is means it cannot be used for some high security concepts. One of the cornerstones of classified information security is physical separation, and containers just can’t provide that.

I am pretty sure that CCP is less heinous and horrible comparing to those acts. This is exactly why I am strongly against labeling anyone Nazi without really comparing their actions. Westerners love to use terminology they are familiar with, 'colonism', 'slavery' and 'genocide'. I don't know what's the purpose of using these words rather than stating facts, personally I feel that they want to make themselves look good by associate these words with Chinese investment in Africa, Chinese factory and now Xinjiang.
> to be ruled by a fascists" is kind of cheap rhetoric

on the contrary

being ruled by a fascist supporter and/or supported by fascist sympathizers has an enormous impact on the quality of life.

That's true everywhere, in Europe as in USA, that's why everybody here in Europe is preoccupied by far right extremists especially in the former eastern Europe.

> you would need to show that it actually is a major concern for a large proportion of Americans that affects their quality of life

It is, having 10 times the chances of dying shot by a stranger makes it 10 times more probable that in US I would be dead instead of alive.

Being dead it's much worse than being alive in my "quality of life" book.

One can argue that Americans don't care, but it is objectively worse as far as the quality of life goes.

Or to put it in another way: for Americans it could be irrelevant, but if we are comparing the two ways of life, it's a data point that can't be easily discarded.

Imagine having the life of a young relative taken by criminals or, worse, by the police.

Would you trade it for a better salary or a larger household, knowing that it's 10 times more probable that it could happen?

In Los Angeles in 2020 there have been 75 murders every million people (a bit more actually, closer to 76), in Rome it was 5 (a bit less, around 4.4 but rounded for easier comparison).

In NY it was 56, Kenya is 50, Egypt 25, Ghana 21, Sierra Leone 17.

Is this a meaningful difference or not?

Would you consider Los Angeles safer than Rome?

Given the choice would you rather raise your kids in Los Angeles or in Rome?

Remember: you're betting on their life or death chances.

> into the trap of stereotypes such as school shootings being everywhere

It's not a stereotype if it's true.

It's the only place were regularly school shootings end up with casaulties.

«There were, on average, 16.4 such shootings a year from 2007 to 2013, compared with an average of 6.4 shootings annually from 2000 to 2006. In the past 13 years, 486 people have been killed in such shootings, with 366 of the deaths in the past seven years. In all, the study looked at 160 shootings since 2000.Sep 24, 2014» (news from 7 years ago!)

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, the crypto_secretstream construction [1] that I (and others) have recommended uses ChaCha20Poly1305-IETF as its symmetric cipher. There wouldn't be a key exchange for this algorithm, since it's symmetric. However, the crypto_kx functions [2] generate a 256 bit shared secret, which should work for a ChaCha20Poly1305 key I believe?

We have built a chatbot + commerce solution on Messenger for businesses. Businesses can use our solution for Facebook Live Selling and Facebook Ads, no website is needed. Customer make comment and the bot will lead them to Messenger to complete the purchase, it works seamlessly.

We have actually deployed to few clients. The thing is each client will have different CRM system, Payment Gateway, Logistic system. Before we launch, our team need to spend few weeks building the integration. It is necessary but actually not the core of our software.

I am not complaining about it. But I think there must be a lot of software out there always need to write this integration layer, which it is identical to the other system. So wouldn't it be great if there is an integration layer we can plug into our software and it will work just with few lines of code?

For example, the integration layer already integrated with Payment Gateway A, B and C. My software just need to integrate with the integration layer and all 3 payment gateways will be available on my system.

This is very high level view, let me know if you have any questions. More important, feel free to share your opinion .

I just wonder who is clicking on the border instead of the text or icon on the tab. I don't see where a visual demarcation of a tab is helping someone navigate when there are other much stronger visual indicators. Is there some secret turn off favicon and title text mode for tabs I don't know about?

I agree, these UI changes are practically unnoticeable except the menu changes. I would like more contrast for the address bar, though.
While you are at it, don't forget to use UNLOGGED tables. UNLOGGED == In Memory.

But if you must use disk based table for Job queueing, set fillfactor = 50. This takes care of heavy updates.

Indexes are helpful but costs memory and CPU, so always make sure you partition the table based on job_type for performant pending job query.

I wouldn't recommend using LISTEN/NOTIFY unless you are okay with "at most once" semantics. I have used disk table based approach for PUB/SUB to replace Kafka. More fine tuned approach will also allow (job_type, consumer_group, publisher) as a partition key.

All freedom comes with conditions, generally around not abusing them or otherwise interfering with other people's freedom.

Freedom in general or in reference to a particular type never means you can do whatever you want. The entire premise of civil society is that there are conditions on behavior. It is a fundamental principal that one person's freedom ends where another person's begins. Or as I've heard it said, "The freedom of your fist ends at the tip of my nose".

It's actually about capability inflation. You can counter any tech but new tech makes old tech obsolete.

I think you are deceiving yourself by restricting your dataset to those in your circles. Of course there are many smart and productive immigrants in Germany from all over the world.

I said I am not against immigration, but shutting it down for a period or restricting heavily might be worth it due to the potential risks that exist long term.

There's no real harm in trying that for Germany's voters, and by doing so you will also keep the far right wingers at bay.

So we're the iPhone 11, X, 8, 7, 6 etc. In fact, apart from the camera, they are essentially the same great phone, but people keep buying newer ones, mostly because of marketing reasons (sure they have more powerful processors and more memory, but virtually no one really needs the power of those, since they use their phone to browse the web and get directions).
> Shell parsing is hard.

In general, not for SSH specifically, I tend to close quoted bash strings instead of trying to figure out how many escapes I need. Especially useful for awk and sed.

For example:

'Two here'

Ok, maybe escapes would have been easier in this particular example.

$ echo "One Two Three" | awk '{print "\'"$2" here\'"}'

Yeah it's what I find wrong with the way we fix / correct social issues like this. I m a white male european who emigrated to an asian former colony, and while I never heard or supported racism, misogyny, colonisation, white supremacy, nazism and all these things, I'm often associated with them :D

It's fair I guess so I apologize for what I represent to all these people who had oppressed ancestors, but I'm not sure they're actually resolving much of what people who looked like me did to them: poverty, lack of empowerement, inability to operate in a modern world etc, they can spend their time making me acknowledge my associated responsibility but I wish they'd just let me help instead :D

I remember telling a "philipino" (culturally/parents born there) born in the country that I was an immigrant here, he could not even compute it. He felt HE was, while obviously he was born here and a full right citizen, while my associated identity made him believe I was a sort of powerful lord instead of the scraping by immigrant I am, who has mostly the right to shut up and be useful... in HIS country. It's just weird.

For what is worth, if you get admitted, you have ~4 years in which you can request to view your admission paperwork, which includes some pretty interesting and weird notes from admission officials on why you were accepted.

Eating them outside of a geographic region where there is a history of eating them is definitely especially questionable, although I don't know that I'd necessarily consider it unhinged. At least they knew exactly what they were eating and made an informed decision.

Surprise. Fortran was used as well but Forth was used quite a bit by NASA. In some ways it is extremely auditable. A handful of assembler functions sit at the bottom the rest is Forth. Minimal numbers of variables in memory if code is written to use the data stack for inputs and outputs to functions. Much easier to certify than GCC. :-)

There were a number of Shuttle experiments where the control software was written in Forth. It gives you a control interpreter out of the box and also bit level access to hardware so you can write custom drivers and then script the hardware control in the functions you wrote or compile them where speed is required, using an 8K..12K kernel.

The Cassini probe used Forth software running on a Forth 2-stack CPU.

Cat and mouse games lead to very surprising innovations.

During the Sri Lankan civil war about 10 years ago, the Tiger rebels had acquired Zlin Z 43s, modified them to carry several bombs [1], and were bombing targets left and right, including the country’s capital.

The populace was increasingly pondering why the country’s well-trained air force, with modern fighter jets with years of scrambling experience [2] could never seem to shoot these slower planes down. In fact, there were no confirmed kills during the conflict.

It was later revealed that the rebels knew the capabilities of the enemy Chengdu J7 and MiG 29 interceptors, and had modified their own aircraft engines with anti-IR capabilities [3]. Complex IR jamming equipment was suspected, but the country’s PM later said that the rebels had simply redirected the exhaust fumes from the back of the aircraft to the front, throwing “unlockable” heat signatures [4].

By the end of the war, the rebels had actually “won” the war in the skies by destroying over 30 aircraft and losing 2, despite ultimately losing.

[1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zl%C3%ADn_Z_43

[2] The government’s prized jet fighters were stationed in the capital, about 400 km from the main conflict zone. In 2000, the rebels launched a devastating offensive and the government held on by a thread due to their ability to scramble ground attack craft to battles in 7 minutes. It’s said that had they lost that battle, all hopes of winning the war would have been lost.
