There is no quick decoupling from the USD. Everyone holds long term USD instruments. Nobody wants to lose their money. The US is still the world's largest economy - by a lot. Gold isn't that much more expensive than it was in e.g.

Maybe. I agree there is damage to US democracy but the root causes are more complex than just Trump. I also don't think anything Trump is doing is irreversible. This too shall pass. The more interesting question is what happens next. W

That's pretty much textbook why exercise on its own will not reduce weight. You need to control your intake as well.

Yeah- Maybe it's "eventually working". It's hard to trust when it seems so fluid. Maybe there needs to be some mechanics to make it harder to change. Something like being able to suggest changes/corrections but havi

I'm not an American so I'm kind of looking at this from the side but I'll try to engage here... What does "heading in a totalitarian direction" mean in this context exactly? I'm not trying to use this as a &quo

I've also edited random things in the past. Like inaccuracies in Comp.Sci. topics. I used to like Wikipedia but I'm changing my mind. One thing amongst many others was seeing some company that competed with the startup I worked in

It's really not that bad. It's a mix. There are also many versions for most songs and often comments with corrections. Learning songs by ear is probably a useful skill that people don't develop because of all the other sour

I went to some workshop in the US circa 1990 and I ended up with a bunch of books that I didn't want to carry with me. So I put them in a box and (surface) mailed them home. It was heavy, international, and cost very little IIRC. I thi

Human autoscaling. That's a good one. I mean it's not good. We live in weird times. Companies are drowning in earnings. Their stock sky rockets. But they are unable, or not interested, to put people to work to grow their business.

Thanks for giving it a read though. I think it's an interesting question of how we measure bias. For me, as an Israeli (who hasn't lived there for decades), who has some first hand knowledge of the situation, much of the reporting

Right and this is exactly why the Hamas covenant says: "The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems,

None of the articles say what you claim. There's no mention of dressing civilians in IDF uniforms. The claim is they are forced to enter suspected booby trapped building, not "conducting military operations". It's quite

I wasn't really going after a political angle or the elections. PMs in Canada wield a ton of power and AFAIK are rarely removed. I'm not sure what exactly you consider to be misinformation here. It's extremely rare for member

The IDF is not "massacring civilians by the tens of thousands". You could argue the IDF is very loose with its targeting and is willing to go after military targets even if many civilians get hurt. The Hamas was significantly loos

Bad things happen in wars. And yes there are questionable videos of Israeli soldiers on TikTok. I'm not sure how this supports your view point. It's is entirely possible for Israel to be the good guy, for the BBC to have a strong

Why are we moving the goal posts? Parent claims the violence is simply due to: "The idea of Hamas wouldn't exist if Gaza (and the West Bank) wasn't occupied by land, air and sea; their land stolen on a daily basis, and Palest

Israel has not expanded. It has shrunk. It returned Sinai to Egypt. It returned Gaza to the Palestinians. It gave control of west bank cities to the Palestinian Authority after allowing it's bitter enemy leadership (the PLO and Arafat)
