The fed during the 1970s brought down inflation for a little while, but it spiked again. The hope is that Powell has learned this lesson and will keep interest rates high enough for long enough to stop it from being more persistent. See: h

Oh, I read it. I'm saying that building a system that supports microtransactions that are reversible is cost prohibitive due to the customer service aspect required. If someone could pull it off, it would be a game changer. I believ

1Password8 for Windows (which I upgraded to blindly) took away a core security feature in my view, which was "unlock on secure desktop". They say it's in-progress[0], but it's been 9 months already. Btw, "unlock on

Why should the court be in the business of expanding rights? I think you should go read and understand what the three branches of the federal government should do. I think people have gotten used to the supreme Court that pushes a semi-majo

Googler opinions are my own. I don't understand how they could have Google's true job posting numbers. Many of our postings are for general SWE roles, and that posting could hide any number of actual openings.

Stadia has not been cancelled. It's a rumor. It has traction only because Google has cancelled too many products. Go read the HN thread on it, people there were calling it poorly sourced.

I believe AMEX tries to mix all of their card types together (prepaid, corp, etc..), so you can't do that. But I do agree for MC and Visa, I think you can figure out many of these with BIN information.

I'd agree on maybe, but it likely depends on what the Twitter board knew. If the Twitter board knew about it, and thought it had material impact on their company but did not disclose it, it could be considered at least part of the evi

My understanding if you ask a university of Chicago economist is that you need to follow the playbook of Paul Volcker, and raise interest rates above the rate of inflation. The fed is slowly working their way there, but they are doing it su
