We do not want deflation, particularly in an economy where the average household debt has increased significantly. -3% means that the real value of all this debt that has been accrued over the past few years is increasing at higher rate - not only are you paying interest, but every dollar paid is worth more and more as deflation occurs. If you're hoping for a recession for whatever reason, I guess you could demand deflation, but for the rest of us, we just want inflation to slow down.

The goal is to keep inflation at a low enough rate that wages keep up.
Some breweries pivoted to selling near-beer and other NA beverages or foods during Prohibition, or just closed for those years and restarted afterwards.

Yuengling famously sold ice cream during Prohibition, and apparently still makes it in small batches.
"It hasn't happened yet, therefore it can't happen."

Well, yes, we are always at that risk... but even basic numbers are getting much worse. Depending on who you ask, about 37% of Americans (give-or-take) cannot withstand a sudden $400 expense without using debt. This is ~5% higher than it was a year before, in 2021 when it was 32%.

It goes without saying that there is a finite ceiling for how much debt a person can obtain. When 1/3 of the country risks hitting that ceiling with how debt use has increased, is unable to get more debt, and can't afford $400; you have a perfect recipe for extreme social unrest in the future if things don't turn around. It's made worse by inflation eating away at pay, and also the record-high APRs that credit cards are demanding; and high rates in general for debt of any kind.

> premise that market expectations about growth are unsustainable

Fair enough. Rising rates make a stable state more viable. In a very real sense, that's what rates are: patience in terms of money. We're conditioned to thinking of all markets like tech, but most businesses happily chug along growing alongside the economy while spitting out wages and profits. Amidst all of that, the carbon and material intensity of advanced economies keeps falling, alongside their birth rates. Fundamentally, I don't see what's forcing unsustainaibilty to the point of necessitating collapse.
This is very common in the western states (I don' t know about the others). In general, the rules for state forests are similar to the rules for the national forests -- but there can be significant differences.

Fortunately, while the NF websites tend to be poorly updated (which is why you shouldn't rely on them), the state forest websites are much more reliable for current information.
Part of the problem is that the steam beer process they used is a cheap and nasty process by design and they were one of the last holdouts of that style. I did a tour of their brewery where they do the open air fermenting (hence the name, steam came off it). It's a way to save refrigeration costs in brewing and makes for a poor beer.

If they adapted to modern tastes they wouldn't really be steam beer anymore. They'd be another beer brewed the same way as the others. At which point you're calling non steam beer steam beer.

That is categorically untrue and is not actually believed by those who survived WW2. I also explained why the perception is changed, even though the facts haven't. From there, you've launched into some unrelated tirade about American military size.

"a society where violence is pervasive" - with no example or evidence to back up this statement. Bold claims need bold evidence.

I suspect that they're redefining violence as "words or statements that I disagree with". Which are one of the primary things that drive the issues in their title. Debate and disagreement is not violence. Only a toxic narcissist would think words of disagreement somehow violate them. Thus they use their toxic narcissistic ways to squash all debate.

I like Murakami, but I think he'd make for a poor "sexually-transmitted book". Most women I know would treat a line-up of his work on a shelf as a bit of a red flag, actually.

I think it's pretty obvious just as a consumer that banner ads don't work. No one deliberately clicks on them, and meanwhile every major site has obvious scam ads on it. Magazines always had scam ads, but they were in the back pages in small print. Now the scam ads are quite prominent (and disgusting). People in general like ads: they sing jingles, they talk about funny Super Bowl ads, they buy the mattress their podcast host recommends, they cut out magazine ads as mini-posters, they follow Instagram influencers (glamorous product placement), etc. No one likes banner ads. They have had no impact on pop culture since "punch the monkey" and "one weird trick" (both scams, btw), and in general, they are worthless, so the whole market for them is rotten.
I think its a joke; that sort of either/or reductionism is the entire point of the original article.

He was such an interesting and humane writer. My favorite quote from him, which I think is from one of his essay collections:

> It does take great maturity to understand that the opinion we are arguing for is merely the hypothesis we favor, necessarily imperfect, probably transitory, which only very limited minds can declare to be a certainty or a truth. Unlike the puerile loyalty to a conviction, loyalty to a friend is a virtue— perhaps the only virtue, the last remaining one.

Why not look at mid-size private companies?

> * Someone says Reddit is user hostile.

> * I claim it's not.

The problem lies partially in the fact that you haven't defined what "user hostile" means. (In fact, neither of you have. And you could try to [disingenuously] argue that the burden to define it lies with the person you're responding to and that you don't have any such burden, but that would be a junk argument—provably wrong, since the claim that it's not user hostile is as strong of a claim as claiming that it is.) So, a simple litmus test to see if you're acting in good faith: simply state which definition of "user hostile" you're using. Place the goalposts.

What is a definition of the phrase that, if it were observed/shown/proven, you would concede that the subject of the discussion is guilty of acting in a user hostile way?
I think science and religion are even less coupled than that. The newest gravimesobaryon discovered through the LHC probably doesn't have any bearings on religion, and rituals such as Ramadan aren't performed for a benefit based in science.

My setup is that I only have subvolumes for root, and (for now) my Doom Emacs config. Whenever I do a system upgrade, or a Doom Emacs upgrade, I manually take a snapshot of the appropriate subvolume first, just in case anything goes wrong. And then I only keep a max of 7 or so snapshots before I go through and delete the old ones.

Has worked well for me so far and saved my butt a few times, and since I don't have a bunch of subvolumes to manage, I'm not overwhelmed. It's nice and simple, and I need nothing other than the default `btrfs` CLI utility.

This doesn't seem like a fair characterization of what happened. I don't intend to shill for Draft Kings or anything, but lawmakers weren't bribed into changing anything. The Supreme Court struck down the federal ban on sports gambling, and that was based on a lawsuit brought by Chris Christie as governor of New Jersey, not on behalf of Internet gambling sites, but because he was pissed that Nevada casinos were allowed to host sportsbooks but Atlantic City casinos were not.
Calling bonds a bad gamble is questionable. The Fed rate goes up, the price of bonds at the old rate goes down, a minor bank run forces them to sell the bonds at a loss to cover the withdrawals.

Were they supposed to invest in stocks, options, or real estate instead? The answer is complicated, but calling bonds a "bad gamble" is weird

And the word "Dockerfile" is a link to a nonexistent page... they definitely skipped their grep + sed update homework when moving things around.

Noticing the broken link points to photoprism/docker/develop/Dockerfile, I supposed they had moved it and indeed, just by going one parent up, the directoy photoprism/docker/develop/ contains subdirectories for lots of base systems, each one containing a Dockerfile that lists dependencies needed for each of them.

Strawmen who do very important work in propping up world-views.
As an avid runner and hiker, I have the opposite perspective. A view from a mountain or hill top or distant location in a forest that I had to work to get to is, to me, much more enjoyable than one that is easily accessible. When you happen upon another person, there's a shared acknowledgement of not just the view, but the effort you each put in to get there.
Oh yeah, totally -- this has been on my mind a bit! It definitely would help solve my issues though I'm afraid I don't have an entrepreneurial bone in my body, lol. Still, I think it's a challenge I'd be up to, at least if I can find somebody to do it with (have to say I've always been a bit wary of those cofounder-matching sites)
From the first link:

African 2816 G=0.9052 C=0.0948
Asian 108 G=0.630 C=0.370

So, roughly 5% of the population is affected, lower risk for European ancestry, much higher risk for Asians (37%, but the sample size is rather low).

> Did you switch from two spaces to one space while writing in a text editor using monospace font too?

Yes, I switched to one space no matter what, but my use of monospaced fonts was rare back then. Even today I use only one space after periods, even when using monospace fonts. HN is an interesting case: The input field in comments is (I think?) monospace, but the output of posts is Verdana, which is not monospace.
Except the evidence doesn't support this in any way. The data show that we are living in the lowest level of crime in the United States that we've seen in decades but the data also shows that we are living in the most narcissistic times that we have ever seen. So the association of pervasive violence with narcissistic toxicity isn't there. It's disingenuous to attempt to conflate the two. And ultimately detracts from those who are affected by actual violence.

Because the Xbox "Coppermine" CPU has the same L2 cache size as a "Coppermine" Celeron (the main differentiator between Pentium and Celeron at the time), the Xbox CPU is sometimes called a Celeron instead of a Pentium III. The Xbox chip retains 8 way cache associativity of a "Coppermine" Pentium III instead of the 4 way that Celeron has, so it's not quite what you'd get with a PC Celeron chip. Ultimately this configuration is only used in the Xbox, so if Intel and Microsoft want to call it a Pentium III I guess that's what it is.
I am somewhat sympathetic to the argument you are describing.

Imagine if income tax was not automatically deducted from your paycheck, but required you to save and physically send money to the IRS (like most 1099 contractors have to do). I think the overall feeling about tax for the bottom 60% of earners would be a little different, whereas now they see getting back some forced savings as a little reward.

The government is highly incentivized to automate and disguise that activity further.

In your 4h in the Gotthard tunnel, did you get to see how Swiss-German is written differently than German? Also the grammar is fairly different.

But yeah those are dialects, nobody said they weren't. I just said "they don't speak German, but Swiss-German" (more as a "fun fact" than trying to be pedantic), and they would definitely correct you if you said it is the same. Whereas a Suisse Romand (the French speaking Swiss) will tell you that they speak French, just like a French-Canadian from Quebec.
