They were in some lunatic trance agitated by manipulative sales tactics. Any other loan they would have research beforehand and actively apply for.

> fact that your lot decided it was worth taking out a loan

Let's use analogy - currently American elderly are aggressively profiled and targeted by various scams starting from a phone call because they are gullible, lonely, and vulnerable. Perhaps they simply decide it's worth to give away 1000-3000 USD here and there? Maybe they decide that few calls with a guy with Indian accent is worth 2000 USD, of all things. Honestly I feel certain satisfaction that it bites back.
I like to think that each individual has a limit to their ability to access the physical world around them, which will likely go up and down through their lifetime. Factors which might affect this limit are physical or medical differences between individuals. These factors can be mitigated, such as a prosphetic, or medication to help with altitude sickness. Humans also have ways to change the physical world to mitigate these limits. I'm guessing that there is a road which brings you closer to this climbing area? And that most people use vehicles to get closer and leave those somewhere? That infrastructure is in place, but there was a time when it wasn't. Vehicles, great invention aren't they? You see where I'm going with this? Take away that infrastructure or take away the vehicles and the trail errosion problem is solved, because suddenly there is a massive drop in people accessing the area. I'm not suggesting either way that those steps should be built or not, that is indeed a conflict and no one can say where the line should be drawn, but please don't loose sight of the limits of your own ability, that your limit WILL change and the mitigating factors that are already in place that enable you to exceed your limit.

You're seriously going to quibble about "Just avoid holding it in that way." v. "You're holding it wrong." That's some petty shit right there. I suppose not surprising with how this forum has deteriorated over the last decade or so.
I'm kind of sad to see this reaction, because to me the vulgar part isn't what's objectionable about it, but I can't stand the awkward madeupness of the word. "Shittification" would have been bad enough, but the "en-" just makes it cringe.
It’s funny how in the supposedly late capitalist world of contemporary America, there are lots of problems that could be solved by money/business/entrepreneurship but are prevented from doing so by not-actually-representative government councils and arbitrary laws.

Two examples that pop out to me are litter/graffiti removal and clean public bathrooms. Millions of people would gladly pay $10-$50 a year to get both, but regulations prevent a private company from even beginning to solve either.

There are legitimate reasons for storage to be specified in bits. Having to put everything in bytes is something you have to do for computer memory because it's only byte addressable. This is actually inconvenient and inefficient for a lot of real data. DNA and protein sequences come to mind. But storage isn't just about computers.

Internet and PC memory manufacturers have no excuse, though. It's just bigger numbers despite not being able to work with individual bits.

- Investing $137k into bonds would generate about $500 per month
- Selling your time is the most straight forward way

Consider cutting expenses, you can save 500 euros per month without any side activity.

You can also sell your time and buy bonds until the desired amount is reached.

Will that work?
I see “enshittification” as describing cases where the economic incentives are to make the experience worse for users, as in the obvious example of adding more and more ads. There is another huge effect where new features are valued over quality, which is not a problem exclusive to big tech. But I think a lot of big tech’s quality problems are about scale and complexity. The software crisis still exists: big complex systems with lots of users and use cases have a tendency to get worse. Scale is hard, and almost by definition big tech has a lot of large scale systems.
Not all contracts are legal.
The web is also rather complicated to set up and run.

A simple binary that one builds or downloads and runs is often far simpler than setting up VPSes, SSL, and so forth. And typically "web" projects are ran on complex setups where one needs the right runtime, a database, some weird bundling/dependecies step (that breaks after a few months).

Shoes has the same problems of a fickle runtime and flakey bundling step as Rails, Django, Laravel,Express and whatnot have. So it's a bad example.

But a single statically built go or rust binary is just so much easierto runthan hosting any web-app.

Is this a marxist blog? Seems very opinionated. Milei's plans for Argentina's economic recovery is very unique & interesting, and should be a good example for other countries who struggle with massive public spending. Economic "shock therapy" is obviously painful in short term, especially for the beneficiaries of previous policies.
Notes from an Interviewer
In MS Teams, your name is from AD and you almost certainly don't have permission to change that. Also, bots have hexagonal avatar frames while humans have circular ones. I'm not sure how many people notice, though.
This recent focus on Argentina has highlighted a common tactic the media likes to use:

- Bad thing happens for long time: ignore, downplay.

- Bad thing continues to happen, but “enemy” person that can be blamed for it appears: suddenly it’s headline news and this new bad person caused the problem.

No one that has paid any attention to Argentina is surprised that the economy is chaotic and undergoing experiments of which the outcome is unclear.

Thanks, what aspects of the process are affected by this definition, besides pricing (potentially).
My best example of that was a test that was asserting that a monitoring metric changes in some way with a comment expressing doubt whether the asserted values are correct (but whoever wrote it still wrote the test that enshrined the behaviour that they themselves doubted).
People seem to have this expectation that an economic crisis is like a storm. Kind of blows in, out of nowhere and then things are bad. For that sort of person, 2 months is a long time. I don't know why people seem to think that way though because it doesn't make any sense; and economic crisis is usually triggered by past decisions that have destroyed wealth and people are now having to realise it. I'd put Argentina's devaluations in that bucket, and the spending freezes. The wealth isn't there to sustain the policies and that isn't the fault of the current guy. Someone needed to be creating wealth 10 years ago for the generous policies of yesteryear to have a chance.

But I'm not really a fan of the idea of "shock therapy", it is the same sloppy thinking as gets people in to messes. We'll note that China, bone-fide economic miracle, seems to have had a strategy of using charter cities (eg, Shenzhen). That seems less disruptive and probably about as effective as anything else; quarantine the old rules geographically and set up experiments with new rules to figure out what works. Let people move to low-tax regions on their own terms when they think it is better than their current state. Sharp changes are super risky, people do need time to re-learn how to survive in a competitive economy. And just because your ideology is sound doesn't mean your policies will magically be good.

I literally don't understand why people keep insisting on using one policy across entire countries. It is patently obvious that politicians aren't good at figuring out the best policy from the legislature. They need to experiment.
I would strongly encourage you to reduce your use of std::shared_ptr in your code.

There is one instance where I saw you take a shared_ptr and then proceed to move from it. That could literally have been a unique_ptr and if you are making an assumption that that shared_ptr is still valid in another part of the codebase you at best now have UB but it is almost certainly a bug.

Just replace shared_ptr with unique_ptr, the advantage of managed languages is that you are in control of the memory, to then proceed to just use ref counting means you may as well have written the code in Java / C# since you incur all the same overhead of atomic references and don't get the advantages of a sophisticated GC.

unique_ptr can also trivially be upgraded to shared if you actually do need ref counting.

I genuinely don’t understand. Shouldn’t we expect bias regardless of their orientation? Conservative, libertarian, liberal, progressive, Marxist - whatever ideology someone has, whether it has a name or not, whether it is coherent or not, it’s going to contain their bias. Not to be too reductive but that’s how human beings work.
Making an exception for X is the same slippery slope. And easy talk for people who haven't had a family member die in agony or something like that in a place where they don't allow control over your own life. My life, my terms; if I want out, it needs to be an option.

Which is exactly the problem with Alzheimer; cancer is much easier; you are usually lucid but not very happy the last few weeks/months, so let's end it. Alzheimer's they cannot even ask you, as you cannot decide for yourself for probably a long time already.
I wouldn't consider myself to be knowledgeable about Argentina, but this is a blatantly misleading article.

All the conclusions here are based on the government's official USD/peso exchange rate, which until a recent devaluation, had been completely out-of-sync with the black market exchange rate.

From this AP article published in December: https://apnews.com/article/argentina-inflation-milei-currenc...

"The previous government sought to deny reality by strictly limiting Argentinians’ ability to exchange pesos into U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies. As a result, the official exchange rate made the peso look stronger than it actually was — around 400 pesos for every U.S. $1 before the devaluation that Milei’s government announced Tuesday. But no one was fooled. The black market has lately pegged the peso at around 1,000 per $1."

"At the heart of Milei’s audacious economic agenda is his plan to devalue the peso from 400 to 800 per $1 U.S. dollar and then by an additional 2% each month. Part of the goal is to make Argentina’s exports less expensive — and thus more competitive — overseas and reduce the country’s gaping trade deficit."

"Some economists worry that Milei’s devaluation doesn’t actually go far enough. His plan would narrow — but not close – the gap between the official exchange rate and the 1,000-peso-to-$1 rate in the black market."
"The people are worse off, but the country is much better!"

You call that being opinionated, and yet you're okay (fascinated even) with an economy policy that brutalizes and starves in the short term? In a country like Argentina?

Shock therapy like the one in Argentina is what turned the tide of inflation in the 1980s in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_1980s_recession_in_the_U.... Milei got a strong mandate, but we will have to see if his mandate and his conviction is ultimately strong enough.

At the time Volcker, the president of the Fed, was a target of many social groups - for example he would get in his mail, along with very explicit an threatening letters, car keys from dealerships that went bankrupt. Reagan himself waged wars against some groups, for example he had a huge falling out with Air Traffic Controllers that resulted in sacking most of them and substantial problems with air traffic management due to understaffing.

But it worked, and we got the prosperous but greedy 80s. Soviet Union never recovered from the inflationary pressures, except that over there the system lacked price discovery so inflation manifested in other ways, through extreme shortages of goods / very long queues.

The situation in the late 1970s was so severe that the US even started issuing bonds in foreign currency! People preaching "the end of the Dollar" or some other similar extreme ideas usually don't realize that we're not even close to the Carter bonds stage yet. And even that stage was ultimately reversed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carter_bonds
Almost the same for me, It's either blackmetal, classic or some ambient which works best for me when I want to concentrate on something.

Yes. There's also other (better) ways to solve this issue: for instance sampling input/outputs in production and srtting them in stone in the tests.

An issue with going with llms will be to validate if the behavior described are merely tolerated or if they're correct. Another will be wether something is actually tested (e.g. a code change still wouldn't break the test). Too granular output check would be an issue as well.

All in all this feels like a bad idea, but I hope to be wrong.

If Milei is turning away from the economic independence offered by BRICS to sell off all state assets to Blackrock he is a traitor.
From my experience I use llms for writing tests because llms are much better at writing tests than the application code. I suspect this might be due to the fact that the code ends up being a very detailed and clear prompt to the llm.

This is a very good article and introduction.
To be fair there's "bad" and there's "more than bad", this looks to be in the "more than bad" territory. And whenever I hear "Shock therapy" being mentioned I shiver, because it reminds me of my childhood and adolescence spent under such an economic policy in Eastern Europe back in the '90s. It was worse than hell, thinking back at it.

So all I can say it's that I wish the Argentinian people all the best, they're going to need it.
People downvoting anybody against it without giving any proper answer…

I agree with everything you said. Even the security it promotes is false advertising. Yes maybe Bitcoin ~itself~ is secured but the rest is not. It has to live on server, network, software, etc… and those are not 100% secured. Look at the money stolen. There has been more money lost through hacks and wallet stolen than any traditional bank…

Security on transaction also is a joke. I have never heard a CEO being so concerned by fraud and Visa and others that they need so much Bitcoin… Unless they do very shady businesses. Tomorrow I do a startup it will use Visa etc and I will sleep just fine. If you run the number with fraud costs etc also included for Bitcoin and traditional ways, from micropayments to $100B money transfer. The traditional is way cheaper and sometimes actually more secured overall.

And I can go on and on… It’s just greed.
