US has successfully made every other currency worse, so rest easy, the USD is the least-dirty-shirt in the laundry now, and everyone knows it Euro - sunk by energy concerns and war Yuan - sunk by China's isolation from global community

There is nothing that can supplant the dollar right now. The Yuan is radioactive now that the Western world is compartmentalizing China. The Euro may not even survive the next few years if energy, conflict and other issues take down the EU.

My issue with the StrongTowns set is they only want homes built for the use-case thirty-one year-old single office workers. They can't imagine anything else and they are quick to denigrate people who want a yard and a driveway as knuck

Difference is, AWS was growing into a void. Google has to contend with established leaders. GCP is basically number four globally in cloud - with Alibaba being number three This tells me it won't last much longer...Google can't af

Putin is "committed" so to speak, so this is just following his current strategy through to its conclusion: force the West to give up on Ukraine or accept massive escalation. The fundamental question is - is NATO committed enough

As an Android user...good! The Android space needs a kick in the ass. Google has been phoning it in (nyuk nyuk) with hardly-premium Pixel phones, nothing in tablets, and meh changes to Android. Samsung continues to produce good hardware, bu
