You are joking right? But if you are serious, error is here: But I discover that prices have dropped by 4% You do not simply drop prices, like that. Why did prices drop? (Price) deflation is just a descriptive name not a moving cause. (Pr

Yes, that is it. Contrary to the popular belief, just holding money under fixed supply monetary regime doesn't make you rich. A Rip van Winkle with a year savings (say clerks' job) falling asleep for a 100 years will not wake up a Rockefell

You totally wrong, and the reason you are wrong, is because you do not understand growth. Like... totally. Yes, I'm arrogant and I'll deal with an idealized model where the same set of resources is transformed into final goods, but bear wit

Gresham law works only when the exchange between the good/bad money is fixed. Usually by a government/sovereign decree. Otherwise quite the opposite is observed in real world. There's even a word for it. Dollarization.

I seem to remember that specific Swing L&F (look & feel) is at least partially generated code using an in-house tool. It also implements a specific interface Painter<JComponent> which explains the Why and the javadoc is copi

I will exclude France and Germany if the (Shift-123) is different from French/German layout, but otherwise a lot of programmers (power users) use the US layout. Esp. if we are speaking about people of certain age who maybe have started when

_For good error reports back to the user, you'd have to have a fairly large amount of logic in the catch block._ Serious question. How is that a reason to have that _amount of logic_ in the function body? Having IDE/editors which can fold b

I remember reading a paper proposing error handling to be done only at function not block boundaries. A minimal change from the normal exceptions will be something like this: function foo(bar, quux, zut) try { var a = frobinca

I agree with a lot of what you said above. I just don't think it changes the general picture that much. > Please explain under which conditions the US government would become unable to fulfill the promises implied by its debt. At the po

Well, no. The original article was more like a book about the danger of books. This one is like a book about mostly-hamrlessness of books and more.

What I like about bitcoin, even if it only a side benefit, is that make people think about things that most of the time are taken as granted. That the conclusion is flawed, as it is in this case, is not that relevant. PROOF: Suppose you hav

Not exactly. In order to spend bitcoins (transfer them to other wallets) you need them not encrypted. So if you are a bitcoin business making bitcoin payments, at moment you cannot avoid the risk of having the wallet stolen if someone gai
