The risk I see is, that the EU and NATO isn't showing a hard line (might alternative be too late, so) to Putin. Then all it takes for him to try annexing the Baltic is the reasonable impression NATO isn't willing to go to full over that. In which case we would be screwed. The abandonment of Afghanistan certainly didn't help in projecting that kind of strength.
> why is it so difficult to just make a call?

Maybe easy for you but I would never ever order anything if I had to make a call. That's a big no from me.

The other benefit I see is that the app has my payment and delivery details and I don't need to hassle with cash or paying on delivery. Ordering from restaurant A and B is exactly the same and encourages me to try out new stuff.

The third thing is that I can see the delivery courier in realtime on a map and know when they arrive.

With that said, all these benefits would be the same for me if the app was just an aggregator and payment processor with the restaurants handling the delivery themselves.
> They calculated how much in monthly housing costs a person working 40 hours a week for 52 weeks a year at the minimum wage hourly rate in their state could afford. They then compared that to the median monthly homeowner and rent costs derived from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2019 American Community Survey.

This … signifies nothing? Take a hypothetical state that consists of three people and three houses, one rented by me at my minimum wage job for $350 a month, and the other two rented by Bill Gates and Warren Buffett at $55m/month.

The median is way unaffordable to me, yet I have a comfortable rent payment.

Comparing minimum to minimum would be a more useful metric.
I live in the US now and I'm no stranger to how these companies surveil you. My point is, Google has more incentives and interests than just keeping the powers to be in Iran.

But a state-owned company would only and only have 1 master, which would be the state. And it wouldn't bring any of the benefits of Google with it. It would surveil you more aggressively and it would be more devoted to the state.
Ha ha, no way. Very basic things (like caching) are riddled with bugs and (undocumented) limitations. Documentation is poor compared to GL, there are much less features and UI is confusing at best. GH needs to do better if they want to compete here.

Yeah see my comment - this is basically useless without additional data. Minimum to median is a big flag.
Hang on, I think you forgot something...

OH YES!

The US has parked an army in Germany for 75 years!

I dunno, but could this have been a factor in the "no war between European powers" thing?

And when we say "war between the UK and Ireland... unthinkable" do we mean that no-one is going to bomb or shoot people in the UK or Ireland to attempt to achieve a political objective in the relationships between those two countries? That would be jolly nice if it were come to pass !

This is a valid use case and it's the reason tools like Blitz [0] exist in the first place.

Plumbing UI, Forms, API and db is pretty much the same for a lot of MVPs and anything that can get you to a faster prototype is welcome. The difference between what the author shows and Blitz is that the latter is similar to Rails in the sense that it scales to a proper 'Production App' rather than a quick prototype.

Is there anything among these that incorporates a basic configurable firewall policy?

In the more distant past, I used sshuttle to create “one way” poor man’s VPN; it is slow, but it was enough to saturate the remote connections I had at the time; and —- unlike many other systems at the time —- I knew I could trust the cryptography and key distribution, which piggybacks ssh.

At the minimum,I want to have connections going only one way between sine hosts, or no way in the case of two edge devices - and possibly also list specific ports and protocols. Sshuttle only provided directionality - and not intentionally either…

Sshuttle was conceived and written by Avery Pennarun, who later went to co-create … tailscale.

That's wrong you can not make ad hoc decisions without any forethought only in order to please someone or something within or outside the company(organization). I will again refer to the law; law is built on concepts and premises that have foundation in morale for example look at the US constitution or any constitution in the world.

5 years ago I use to watch WW2 documentaries on YT and I regularly stumbled upon neo-Nazi content, nowadays I can barely see any but together with neo-Nazi content being removed they removed legitimate WW2 documentaries that were meant for education purposes only I suppose because some of them used Nazi symbols and/or Nazi speech footage.

So 5 years ago neo-Nazi content was acceptable but today it is not?! It doesn't make sense to me.

They want to be politically correct that's why they change their community guidelines and TOS non-stop.
I have never had these benefits but I imagine this isn't something which happens on short notice. One of the issues with unemployment was that people would sometimes have to wait for months to get their assistance. When employers received pandemic loans for payroll, the choice was to brush off the employer (against unemployment rules) or take your chances that the employer wouldn't just have to let you go again after X months only to face the unemployment process all over again. The narrative around this was that people would rather stay home and get paid rather than working for their money, but the reality was a bit more complicated.
What Are the Best Role-Playing Games in 2021
WSL (and Docker) makes Windows now kind of the most versatile development platform. You can natively develop for Windows, Linux and Android. With .NET you have limited macOS and iOS development capabilities.

And you have the benefit, that Windows is the de-facto standard for desktop software, so everything will just run there. All games, all commercial software, also the software your company bought 15 years ago and is still working.
You can create MDM profiles even without a MDM server etc by using Apple Configurator 2. You will need a Mac however. You can then install those profiles manually.

A simple setting in the app would be far easier yeah. I would suspect that the ease of people bypassing the paid service is probably not a priority for them ;)

Personally I never even tried tailscale as I try to avoid Google. I definitely don't want to use my Google account to log into it and give Google more information.

But tinc serves my usecase well. The peer injection is a bit of a worry there too though. Especially because tinc peers are able to add any peers on their own (it's a feature meant to provide easier configuration).

I tried nebula extensively too but it didn't add enough over tinc to make it worthwhile switching especially now that tinc has an Android app.
This is not correct.

NATO has been the peacekeeping element in Europe. Not the EU, which is a far younger organisation than NATO.
> I’m not entirely sure how we got to this place

Me neither, but I'm 100% sure it has a lot to do with golden circles teaming up to fuck the majority. At least it 100% for sure is in Ireland.

We have captured newspapers and TV completely reliant on government spending to stay afloat running glossy, thick, full-colour property pull-outs and programs.

At the same time our own government argues that building social housing would negatively affect the ability of property vultures to capitalise on their tax-free earnings.

We have a concrete cartel, protected by our government and courts for decades.

We have openly captured regulators, who stifle complaints and drag proceedings out for years or decades only to do nothing.

We have lawyers who are perfectly content to make bank off the above, and the tribunals that come when someone's actually caught taking bribes.

* We have > 230,000 unoccupied homes, at the same time as record-high homelessness and child deprivation. *

We have politically connected assholes making huge sums of money offering hotel rooms as emergency accommodation to homeless families.

I could go on and on. And, a huge amount of this is widely known among the population.

But what the government has here is an easy scapegoat. Every time they get caught bribing newspapers for fake news, or throwing crowded golf parties during a pandemic with vulture fund owners and judges 100 to a room, they just point the finger at Sinn Fein - a political party that has never once been in power - and talk about things that happened 40 years ago to rile up their aged base.

Oh, and our unions are weak and spineless. Not nearly as bad as American unions, but pretty bad all the same.
Speculation is a problem for sure. I think USA is experiencing the burn for not being the number one financial power anymore. If the global market is hurting you, you'll need to protect yourselves by regulation. It's easy to be pro-globalization when you're king of the hill, but not always so great when you're getting the short end of the stick.

Oh, and I didn't know about the Vienna model, but Stockholm tried to massively expand housing in the 60s in something called the Million Program, as so many others did. Although that solved the immediate problem, it has been a catastrophy for the cityscape.

Isn't lack of housing sort of a side-effect of the very concept of a city?

Putin has not shown to be an reliable ally. The annexation of Crimea and the ongoing hybrid war in east Ukraine is one such example.

Putin does not want a strong independent ally next to Russia. He either wants puppet states such as Belarus as allies or a weak and fractured European union. For all the faults the US have they are still better allies than Russia by several lightyears.

Yep, it’s still not affordable in 93% of US counties for full time minimum wage workers to afford a modest 1BD apartment.

Full time work even at minimum wage can be hard to get in many places, where employers like Walmart deliberately schedule workers less than full time to avoid paying benefits.
>By that measure rents are unaffordable even to SV workers.

The rents in MV are $4K ballpark for 2/2 which is a minuscule part of all those $300-600K+ compensations around. Today for tech workers the situation is much more affordable, be it rent or buy, than it was 20 years ago when i first came here. 13 years ago i bought townhouse at the peak for almost 6x my salary back then at 5.25%, and it was a bit of uncomfortable stretch. Today a tech worker for 6x yearly comp at 3% can very comfortably afford a pretty nice house here. In the recent years a bunch of tech neighbors and acquaintances have already bought their second [town]house. Of course the tech workers with these money sloshing around have been the major factor making it much less affordable for everybody else.

> At the risk of digging in a bit politically here… I’m curious if Donald Trump’s actions here were a crucial tipping point in your view or if there were other factors too that were obviously at play? As much as I’d love to blame it all on Trump I’m curious if he exacerbated things that were already slipping, or if he (and the Republicans) precipitated it…

There were obviously a lot of factors in play here. However, pulling out of JCPOA, against the will of all European partners and many US companies with no alternative reason was a crime. It was only to deny Obama/Democrats a win (over a good deal with Iran) which has brought a decade of misery upon Iranian people and risk of more wars among people in the region.

But the JCPOA was a massive, massive step forward and had no downsides for any of the countries involved. But leaving JCPOA was a step even more backwards and it may have pushed Iran over the edge. It may have been a point of no return for Iranian regime.

P.S: Thank you for the kind words.
Wrt the UK. There was an article recently about "affordable" out-of-London commuter homes being built in Harrow.

£300K for <40m^2, one bed, which is barely affordable to a couple both on median salaries.
Yeah that's really low. I just moved to Hamburg as a postdoctoral researcher and our international housing office said to expect to spend around 60% of our salary on rent. Then again rent here includes heating which changes it a little
That shows modest two bedroom but is still a much better dataset than the one originally posted.

Interestingly enough around here they’re advertising double to almost triple the legal minimum for entry-level service jobs such as McDonalds or gas station clerk and apparently are not having many takers.
I've done that with my wife's last two cars but in both cases we ended up spending a lot before we replaced them. This time we will swap them out a little earlier.
If you are the emotional/sensitive type, it can take a while and that's ok. I wouldn't recommend "rebound" anything in this case. It will likely mess you up even more.

Best strategy I know is to focus on other activities, try not to dwell on "what happened". At least until the pain/hurt/etc fades and you can look at the experience objectively from a distance.

Physical and tiring activities are great, like sports and gardening. Spending time with family and friends.. Spending time with pets are also great, especially cats and dogs. They have their own worlds and it helps to observe them not give a f*ck about anything. If you don't want to own one, you can foster them temporarily.

Mental activities that can prevent your mind from dwelling on the relationship are also good, like programming, studying a new subject etc

And sleep! Sleep is a great healer! If you are in a lot of emotional pain and you feel tired and sleepy more so than usual, don't fight the urge.

Let me tell you another story about fill in Excel ..... many years ago when the Mac was getting its very first graphics cards I worked for 3rd party hardware manufacturer who had decided to build our first graphics card, in particular 24-bit screen were deathly slow .... people would switch to 8-bit or even 1-bit to use things like Excel and word processors.

I started out intending to design fast vector hardware (because autocad was a thing back then), the end though some serious benchmarking of real world usage meant that we zeroed in on simply making solid fills go really gas (Gbytes/sec, faster than any SGI machine of the time) - one of the big surprises was how fast Excel went with just this hardware speedup - turns out that at times excel would clear a window up to 9 times before ever drawing a useful pixel - all those 'important' black pixels I wanted to make hardware for (character rendering and vectors) were just noise in the traces.

Not just MS: Pagemaker? did something stupid that invalidated the font cache many times a page, Quark? put 2 blank spaces at the end of every line that caused ATM to do stupid N*2 clipping behaviour ..... we could make great hardware and the software guys would just piss it away

I think they're using the median instead of the mean for exactly this reason. It's a more robust measure central tendency.

Looking at those rental prices it looked very accurate to me.

The real problem is why would they compare minimum wage with median rental prices?

Both are distributions.
> The same pool of people that ordered food are ordering from the same pool of restaurants.

I don't have hard data. What I know is that the phone-your-order-in didn't work for me. I hate crummy pdf menus. I hate calling a phone number. I hate that they don't understand me. Everything about it sucked for me. I just didn't do it.

Then I discovered deliveroo and it just works. I want to use that. In this case the pool of people ordering food from restaurant have certainly grown by one.

Does it make business sense for the individual restaurants to provide the service for me? I don't know and don't care. Their managers can make that decision. As far as I'm concerned their options are "offering the service" or "me buying groceries instead". Since they are the business they should collect the data how much offering the service raises their income and decide based on that if they wish to keep offering.

Likewise the curriers employed should decide if the pay is worth the inconvenience of working this job.

And my government should make sure that the currier companies are sticking to the letter of the law, and that the letter of the law does ensure that the curriers are not exploited. This is among other things one of the services I'm paying my considerable taxes for.

If anyone in this chain of transactions is unhappy with their end of the bargain they should stop. And I will just walk to the grocery store even on those days when otherwise I would have got a treat to myself.

> I just call the store and go there and pick the food up!

No, the concept still applies. Your link is attempting to describe nuance, but comes across as misleading.

The multiplier is an upper bound on money creation by banks, and it does not specify a timeline. That's a fact. Obviously, not every bank loans all the way to the minimum reserve ratio (for example, currently, the reserve ratio is zero in the US, which makes for a poor denominator). Nor does every recipient of proceeds from a loan put all of that money into a lending bank. However, the money supply is still increased via lending. The increase from the issuance of a loan is immediately reflected in total deposits.

What your link is stating is that central banks respond dynamically to the total number of bank deposits, and apply other policies (such as influencing interest rates) against that number directly, which can overpower the effect of the multiplier, if the central bank chooses. However, it does not nullify it, and it very much depends on a central bank taking that action. Your link also mentions regulations which may be specific to the UK about how banks lend, but the underlying principle of money creation remains unchanged.
No, Just fake contractors/freelancers. If the job is equivalent to an employment status you are an employee not a contractor. Not able to set their own price or being able negotiate is a big part of this.
