No, there's been significant inflation and employers are playing hard ball like we can absorb the cost. Its just crazy stupid.

It would depend on what your definition is, I suppose. The general narrative and has been if you copied it without written authorization, you are a pirate. Even if you are archiving a copy for future generations. You can't even look up

That's not correct. Version 1 of their system was, they quickly fixed it to the chagrin of many Linux desktop users (who just want to play and watch the movies they paid for on the hardware they own). So we're back to the state of

It can be by design and also be complex and chaotic (i.e. both), and the cycles we are seeing have happened before. They just have not happened in our lifetime, its surprising how few people bother reading and understanding the value of his

Historically, interest rates must rise to the same rate of inflation to reduce inflation. If they don't rise fast enough you get stagflation where businesses not willing to shoulder the cost of governmental mistakes reduce their produc

From what I saw, the dollar was significantly gaining on the pound. It could potentially slow down the pound in the interim. It will most definitely increase inflation further at a time of stagflation. They probably justified that they had

This is all by design. You seem to misunderstand and think those people that promoted those things are already dead. They aren't. Its why they continue pushing for the bailouts. They've held onto power, and the cohort is starting

AFAIK, the only two good options these days are MPEG Dash (fMP4), or HLS. Bento4 has tools for manipulating the containers depending on your needs, and its not difficult to setup, though you most likely will need to have a certificate and h

Ubuntu LTS is no longer viable, their last viable revision was 18.04. They've also made it practically impossible to work around issues with their snap bs. Better recommendation would be RHEL or Suse.

The very simple answer to your question is, the developers that have made these great things weren't Management people. They don't generally work in MiS, and when they target something, they've just gone their own way. This l

This is a very complicated question because it relies heavily on your understanding a lot of how the financial system already works. Disclaimer: I'm not an economist, just an interested third-party. There is no single book that will ex

It doesn't address them. The original maintainer clark something never responded. Ornicar closed the issue. The false positive rate is pretty high but they don't care since you can sign up with a new account in a few seconds.

I'm in a similar boat, I used to play ~ 50 games a day and I'm down to about 3 games a week now. No weekend play. Once you get to ~1900 FIDE level of play and rework your repertoire for anti-engine strategy you realize just how mu

Unless they've made significant improvements, this thing is borderline useless. About all it does is act as a nice PR/gimmick. Magic thinking. When last I checked about 5 years ago, they were including client-based stats in the an
