There is no fixed rate loan. It's all variable. There is a trader (might be the bank) that is buying variable rate and selling you a fixed rate. If he goes bankrupt, somebody will be holding the bag. You might want to re-read your term

The article being mediocre-ly researched (and click-baity) is the ultimate evidence of what it is trying to prove.

I use Zoho and while it sucks, pretty much every other alternative sucks to the same degree (or more) than Zoho. (That is if you are looking for the full range of functionalities that Zoho offers). It seems to be an industry-wise thing and

The Americas had some interesting civilizations. Many other parts of the world had some interesting civilizations too. The thing, the one that are given the highlights are the Western ones due to colonialism/neo-colonialism. If you do

I think colonialism and the discovery of the "new world" with Europeans moving there, multiplying and imposing their culture.

It's still the case today. We are entering the era of American hegemony now, but since the 1600s it was mostly Western European ideas.

I find the Auth0 acquisition to be more impressive. Many people (even non-tech) know about Citrix because of Windows. Almost no one outside of tech (and many people inside tech too) knows anything about auth0. Yet, we have a company that wa

Any system that socializes losses to parties that are not embarking in the risk/profit is going to be exploited. Period. This is not just about finance. It's a leak. Anything that can leak for profit, will eventually leak. These a

They used to do good work before, didn't they? Now, it's just blowup the thing. No more intelligent covering of their actions.

Are they really your allies? The US has blocked flights from Europe during the coronavirus for a long time. At some point, it was possible to go from North Africa, through Turkey to the USA. But people from Europe could not do that; and tha

You can make up a "casus beli" in EU4. Putin made up a "casus beli" before going into the special-operation. He made a speech how this territory belongs to the Russia empire. So life is not really that different from EU4

It's interesting you wrote a very long response and yet you presented no concrete arguments that the US could be behind this. We can agree that most EU countries will not support such an incident. The only two countries who have the te

With water becoming scarce and our inability to generate more electricity, I wonder if we'll see the reverse of progress.

It's problematic because both sides have political backgrounds: The West would like to take advantage of the current chaos to perpetrate a possible revolution. The Iranian government is aware of that, and that regardless of the truth a

The world is big and never seems to be running of countries going bankrupt or going into chaos. You'll always find new people. Also, Africa just opened the gates for tons of new labor.

This seems to be what modern software development has degenerated into. In the future, it'll be monkeys playing roulette with Github copilot until something compiles/executes.

It's neither the ultra-wealthy or the poor the government is after. It's the middle-class who owns businesses. Middle-class working a salaried job pay well over their fair share of taxes. They can't, for the most part, do any

We've lost the one/two steps process. Now, everything wants to KYC, on-boarding, pre-boarding, Fill this out, Verify this, bot-check, Phone number check, email check, wait for approval, Take a selfie, etc... It's a ridiculous

People dreaming on a crash either haven't seen inflation before, or are hoping their US dollars will regain some value. Not happening. The current rate raises are done to control inflation, and not to reverse it. Some prices will stay

Here is another one: Velocity of money. Say you have an economy (ie: Turkey) where people only use the local currency as a bridge and converts their revenue to EUR/USD as soon as they receive it. The currency will get into an inflation

It is complete non-sense. Banks don’t have a good framework for detecting suspicious transactions. They also happen to not really care and rightfully so: it’s not their job and shouldn’t be their responsibility. What happens is that banks a
