Yeah I used the ARM price. I should have pointed that out. It's definitely a tradeoff. Here's a few things I think are advantageous for Lambda,

* Integration with all the AWS Event Sources.

* Faster autoscaling.

* No need to setup a VPC (subnets, NAT gateway, security groups, VPC endpoints potentially, etc)

* No need to setup autoscaling, multi-AZ, etc.

* No need to support long lived instances.

I don't think one is always better than the other.
This “everything is fine as long as the price is lower” logic is what’s wrong with our current lax anti-trust laws.

For 2020 they never hit target of 2%, they are deciding to run inflation hot by leaving stimulus and interest rates low. The idea is to more or less bring everything back to normal target.

The little asterisk you see on those 98% numbers is important, as it ignores the real life variables that come up. At least according to this planned parenthood link [https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/birth-control/condom...] found when tracking down some data (they do a lot of birth control), it’s actually even worse - 15 out of 100 couples using them consistently get pregnant every year, so 85% real world effectiveness.

> It's fine and valuable to ask about the reasons why inflation is occurring, but the answer does not add or diminish it in the slightest.

The issue isn't if it's happening or not, it's what to do about it. If you act before the "why" is determined, you might do more harm than good.

IIRC, the last set of actions used to get inflation under control was to engineer a multi-year recession. If this is a self-limited blip, we probably don't want to do that.

> They're not waiting for the "shock to pass", they're trying to make sure you don't find out something that you are going to use to decide they're not doing a good job. This is purely political, not economic.

What evidence do you have for that? That kind of baseless speculation (that's assumed to be true) is the root of conspiracy theories.

> motivated economic experts

Pretty much all economics that you just casually hear about is going to be economics intentionally put in service of furthering the system of rich and powerful elites. It's just more propaganda pushed at you and has absolutely no relation to what is good for society, the average person, the longevity of our civilization, or the environment. It is, in short, sophisticated bullshit to let rich people keep getting richer and live like the leeches they are.
I've been soft-evangelizing it for a while now (difficult because I'm also kind of anti-religion/dogma) but what we need more of is data supporting our lived experiences/intuitions... I haven't found much out there (there is some, but it's definitively insufficient)

I am a happy though very new Janet user. I started migrating my existing workflow optimization scripts (e.g. Git wrappers) to--and writing new ones--in Janet as of a few months ago. I used to use Perl but I switched to Janet as it is a much simpler language and VM, and being a Lisp is ~infinitely extensible.

Janet has os/ and file/ packages, as well as a PEG system which mostly stand in for the best features of Perl. Some low-level POSIX-specific operations (like daemonizing and forking) aren't practical but I can just use C for those.

I am also using it to teach my son very simple programming. He can't type well yet, so the terseness of the language helps (there are cryptic symbols but he likes learning their names and how to type them). Its REPL and functional style I feel help a lot too.

> Currently, the only control option that permits unprotected sex is a vasectomy

This isn't really true. Despite getting disparaged often - pulling out is an effective form of birth control (If done correctly, only slightly less effective than condoms: 96%).

Combined with tracking periods and being extra careful around ovulation dates, it works quite well.

Even if we assume improper methods in real world conditions, it's still about 75% effective.

It's not a method I recommend for casual encounters, but with a long term partner you trust - it can be extremely effective without the downsides of other birth control.
> It's 98% for one year according to the NHS.

Assumes perfect use. The real figure is lower. Condoms simply can't compete with other contraception methods. Their main purpose is prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.

This only is true if you accept that additional money gets equally shared; however additional money benefits those with assets the most, whereas those with fewer assets (the middle and lower class) are punished in inflation as they are dependent upon income which often does not change in response to inflation.

Or in other words, if I have multiple properties, stocks, investements etc, inflation is good for me because those things increase in value; however if the primary source of capital I have is a paycheck I get each week that I then have to immediately spend on housing, food, groceries, gas etc, inflation hurts me because my boss isn't going to raise my pay, meanwhile everything has gotten more expensive in the meantime, and if my boss does eventually give me a COL increase that will have lagged to the point the rest of the economy has already caught up with it.

Pretending that inflation is good for debtors is like pretending that economically speaking we are all spherical cows in an airless frictionless vacuum.

> If you have a 35 hour work week and I have a 40 hour work week, where neither of us have work obligations off the clock, then you have more time off work then I do, yes?

Yes, agreed. And if our earnings are equal then I am effectively being compensated better for my time. On the other hand, if I earn .875 to your one, then we are being compensated equally. Likewise, if person A works 10/12ths the time of person B and earns 10/12ths the wage, then they are also compensated equally.

As I understand your claim, for teachers uniquely the other 2/12ths are spent performing non-compensated activities that are necessary to remain a member of the profession in good standing or to satisfy requirements of a particular workplace such as extra-curricular activities or off-clock administrative work. As a result, it is wrong to discount the average salary of a teacher by 2/12ths.

I don't agree with this analysis and I have addressed both topics.

For professional licensing, many occupations have continuing education coursework and examinations and even many workplaces outside of a particular profession require the same. Teaching does not seem unique to me in this respect. Do you consider the professional licensing of teachers to be radically different than the many other occupations with requirements for a bachelors degree and licensing?

Teachers may also engage in labor outside their regular duties that may or may not be completely voluntary and compensated. For the purpose of this discussion I will focus on involuntary and uncompensated labor. To the extent and degree that this exists outside of catchup work due to unproductive workers (such as grading papers after hours, preparing curricula over the summer, etc), I have not seen quantified or compared to other workplaces. Thus it would be difficult to compare to other occupations with requirements for a bachelors degree and licensing. Do you have quantification for this claim of involuntary uncompensated labor?
It seems like it would be borderline impossible politically to raise taxes at a time when inflation is high.
As all monopoly related things: market power. There are at least half a dozen retailers in my tiny home town alone, all with a good market share, they would have to coordinate to push a competing product that ends up driving everyone else out of the market. Amazon doing that by itself with a product on the other hand is devastating on competing products, because it has by far the largest online market share making it impossible to compete on equal terms with a possibly inferior product pushed by Amazon.
> Maybe they thought that it was clear that they had the authority to move member projects to GitHub Enterprise.

Seeing the various owner reactions this was obviously not clear for them

> Maybe they thought that moving to GitHub Enterprise is solely a helpful move since it gives extra features to the the projects for free (by that I mean that maybe they considered it to be the equivalent of simply setting a flag on the project that gives it access to those features). Maybe there was miscommunication internally due to not having well-define protocols and someone thought it was safe to move the project.

If no one in the .net foundation was able to raise an alarm about those transfers because of a "simple" lack of awareness of the importance of project ownership, then I don't see how they can rebuild the lost trust. They have demonstrated an absolute lack of understanding of their OSS community.

As you said maybe it is a process issue but simply saying "sorry we shouldn't have done that" is not transparent enough. Clearly at some point they were ok with those transfers since they were carried. And now they understand that it was a bad thing. What happened? Did the twitter/blog post backlash suddenly opened their eyes on the perspective of the project owners? If that is the case then what are the other things they need to realise in order to avoid making other mistakes such as this one?

I don’t find competencies to be a factor at all. I suppose if you’re being asked to do something by a peer, it could be something they are not good at. But that’s just teamwork 101. It’s just as likely I may ask them for help on something i know I’m not the best at. Most of this stuff comes from other departments/functions or just higher up the org chart. Everyone in an organization has their lane, and it would be out of place for someone do something too deep in another person’s/team’s area of expertise.

For example, I’m in corp finance. Everyone in the company comes to me for financial analysis. It’s not that they are necessarily unfamiliar with spreadsheets or building some rather simple analysis. Many of them have MBAs, etc of which Finance was a major component. It’s that my team is the default go to for all things financial.
I think you're missing the point even though you laid out all the necessary facts. Before reporting a big inflation number and potentially causing panic or altering behavior, they believe (or hope) that the next months will have lower or even deflation so that they can average out to something more normal. Brought to an extreme, imagine waiting 50 years to be able to say "aha, see, inflation only averaged 3% from 2021-2071" even though there was a big spike in the first year.
