That is revenue. What is the net profit?

Well, will be interesting to see how this play out. The US federal debt repayments is already above $1trillion a year.

I would like to know more detail as well.

This is a very interesting point. Is there a similar list in India, Japan, Korea or any other country? Will be interesting to compare them and see if some of those books on the other lists are translated.

You don't have all the relevant invoices etc at on time. Some of that takes quite awhile. Especially inter country purchases and sale transaction information.

I think the most important is number 2. People are now looking for things that are made by humans. Most detest AI slop. And if they find out that you are peddling slop, you lost trust.

It seems to me that we will go through the same phases that chess went through when chess on computers became a thing. First, people thought that this will kill chess, then people start using it as a tool to play better chess. Now, chess is thriving, despite AI being used in chess. I can see a similar path with art. Using AI to generate ideas, still create art by humans.

WebKit started as a fork of the KHTML and KJS libraries from KDE.

And, using Steam, it works on Linux too.

That is an average. The distribution of requests might be more in bursts.

I think immigration was the killer for Dems in 2024.

Nixon went to China because he thought he could use the PRC as a wedge against the USSR. Then China opened up in 1979 and a lot of people believed it will be a new market for goods. It was until it wasn't.

I was an immigrant to a new country. I made an effort to learn the new rules. The immigrant adapts, not the country.

Or their fridges.

That makes no sense. House price/salary is used to compare payment periods or affordability. The context is important. Share value and GDP are totally different things and there is no direct relationship.

It is effective but wrong. It is the same as to compare a river flow to dam volume. There is a relation, but does not mean anything.

A better comparison is to compare somebody's net value to the total housing value of a city. For instance comparing Musk's net value to the total value of all the houses/apartments in New York. Or the the value of the gold in Fort Knox.

This is the crux of the problem. The value of US treasuries and the USD is based on the trust of the world in the US. Now, who knows what will happen to the USD. Will have to wait and see.

At least he is consistent.

Have you tried training devs locally?

Russia invaded Ukraine. To stop the killing, all Russia needs to do is get out of Ukraine. Ukraine is a sovereign country, Russia has zero authority over Ukraine.

That is my original point.

Obviously you have better information. Care to share?

The reason we use labels (bucket) is to make the conversation easier. Imagine that every time you use a word that you first have to define what it means. My point is that the word 'socialism' has now become meaningless.

Proving my point

I think this war is lost. The word socialism means different things to different people. It all depends on where you stand and what you are looking at. If you are on the far right, most things the government does is socialism. If you are on the far left, everything the government does is to support capitalism. And in between the two everything goes.

Not quite. In our part of the world insurers are stopping insuring against storm damage. Due to high incidence. Stopped period, not making it prohibitively expensive.

Jerry's Take on China is still there. So it seems that they did not take all of them down.

Both can be true at the same time.

It would not make any difference. They were too low and did not have enough time to recover. They immediately switched back to on. Two captains is discussing it here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SE0BetkXsLg).

They are hard to switch. You need to lift them to switch.
