Almost anything might have been better than nothing. They voted for it and he still seems to have high approval ratings 🤷‍♂️

My (very rough and possibly incorrect) understanding was that there was a lot of government subsidies of things and lots of government jobs that somewhat existed just to employ people.

This resulted in huge government expenditure as rich/middle class people took advantage. (I heard something about heated swimming pools as electricity was so subsidized. Not checked that though) This meant that the government was always teetering on bankruptcy (again) and the economy never really grew.

My understanding was basically that the country was pretending to be much richer than it was. This is more about resetting to what it can actually afford - hopefully setting itself up for future growth.

If the government went bust, most of this would have happened to an extent anyway. I’m not sure what other options there where, I think the other option at the election was to spend their way out, but they had no money and that would have pushed inflation even further.

This guy is very much the opposite of my general politics… But I think he has had the right idea with the economics here. Better to hurt now and be better later than hurt a little for ever (and not really grow… And risk the government defaulting again)

However… I don’t trust him to actually make everyone better off once the economy is recovering. Expect income disparity to continue growing.

How.is it providing secrecy and result checking at the same time?

Dropping as in no longer using, rather than dropping it on the table and walking out.

Good news.

I understand it as the receivers were deliberately attacking their competitors satellites (and that this would effect their performance as it was wasting bandwidth).

Countering in this case would be by making their competitors service as bad as theirs?

I assume in this case it’s DDOSing the satellite,not the other way round?

True

Don’t hold you breath…

From BBC:

The South Korean military says it will maintain martial law until it is lifted by President Yoon Suk Yeol, despite the nation’s parliament voting to block its enforcement, according to the country’s national broadcaster.

Already officially voted down. Not sure about what’s happening in practice though

Once you have a tower, you can start to upgrade it too. Consoles are all or nothing replacements.

Or things like aluminium smelting/electrolysis.

On crypto, if it’s green energy and there is enough of it, what’s wrong? (It’s not great, and a waste of hardware, but not as awful)

Good for them! Theoretically that should attract industries that need a lot of electricity and everything balances out cost and demand wise.

But by clicking it, you save other people’s attention!

Did you read the article, they address that and how this detects that (apparently)

It does mention that they send some of these in, and sometimes they get responses back that they are fine.

That covers all of your senior engineers that end up spending more time speccing/investigating things than code.

This kind of tool is probably very useful in ‘fiefdom’ companies where middle managers refuse to fire people because then they lose a headcount, or just protect their cronies. Having a central team that cuts across the company investigating that would be a good idea.

Unfortunately in a lot of cases, I can see people being fired off that even though they are doing other work, just because management don’t understand what they do. Or worse because someone sells the tool as being flawless and they just fire anyone it picks up.

If there was more competition they (probably) wouldn’t be doing this stuff as people would leave.

That’s a much better article, ty

Where was the data processing comment

Does this effect showing derived data to other people?

Something like wandrer.earth isn’t really competing, I hope that’s allowed (and doesn’t block any plans they have)
