s3tz··on Trans-Pacific deteriorating, brace for shipping ‘tsunami’
It's worth pointing out the very important part about how it's being calculated.

From the link (below the chart):

> "Before May 2020, M1 consists of (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; (2) demand deposits at commercial banks (excluding those amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions) less cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float; and (3) other checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of withdrawal, or NOW, and automatic transfer service, or ATS, accounts at depository institutions, share draft accounts at credit unions, and demand deposits at thrift institutions.

Beginning May 2020, M1 consists of (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; (2) demand deposits at commercial banks (excluding those amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions) less cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float; and (3) other liquid deposits, consisting of OCDs and savings deposits (including money market deposit accounts). Seasonally adjusted M1 is constructed by summing currency, demand deposits, and OCDs (before May 2020) or other liquid deposits (beginning May 2020), each seasonally adjusted separately."

It goes for almost anything. I think a good way sum it up would be: Don't pretend it's something it's not. For whatever reason.

I'd argue for making this mandatory in your onboarding. It can help so much more than random training sessions and seniors mentioning this in code review. It's a simple shift in thinking that most people should just get.
s3tz··on We instinctively add on new features and fixes. Why don’t we subtract instead?

s3tz··on What should we agree on about the Repugnant Conclusion?
A good explanation I found since I couldn't wrap my head around this just reading about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqBl50TREHU
s3tz··on System76 Developing “Cosmic” Desktop Environment
It's a completely unnecessary extra action the completely breaks your flow.
s3tz··on System76 Developing “Cosmic” Desktop Environment
Yeah, I think for me it's almost entirely the trackpad that's the dealbreaker still. There isn't a single laptop that I can use linux on where the trackpad just doesnt suck. I'll tolerate the noise and the subpar display, even the speakers can suck, but the trackpad should be at least 80% of the way of what a macbook has.
s3tz··on India’s new intermediary liability and digital media laws will harm the internet
Don't think anybody was thinking about race here. More like taking aim at the political do gooder class.

A drag and drop filter builder alone and I'd fork over a subscription.

I guess apple using git is too much to ask..

The probability you can switch a corporation is much higher.
s3tz··on Goodreads plans to retire API access, disables existing API keys
Audits can do that. Maybe a voluntary audit where they can then say they're compliant with NoBullshitForYourMoney.org
s3tz··on Ask HN: Solo devs, how do you plan your development?
I use a similar approach, but with a VSC extension. I use this one: https://github.com/fabiospampinato/vscode-todo-plus, although I bet there are plenty others and for your editor of choice.
s3tz··on Focus has become more valuable than intelligence (2018)
A simple test for people is to get used to working 3 hours straight without any distractions. Give it a try. You can get a whole day's work done this way.
