Currencies going up in value tends to not be great for an economy, as people will save instead of spend. It stops being a currency and becomes somewhat of an asset. A slowly depreciating currency tends to foster the most economic growth.

Time to add some transparency to Jesus.

Polls do show a majority is in favour of some currently proposed border measures. “Overwhelming” is a bit much, but that might refer to people in favour of a stricter border policy but not necessarily in favour of the currently proposed measures.

Bezos might expect Trump to win and wants to avoid retaliatory actions from Trump if he does.

He knows Harris won’t hate him for the lack of an endorsement, or at least won’t vindictively come after him. Trump is… less mature.

Wouldn’t wanna miss “Nazi gets kicked in the balls and cries” tbh.

Sometimes it can be used for comedic effect though. Like with “Fr*nce”.

Am I sure about what? That men vastly outnumber women when it comes to commiting rape/sexual assault/abuse? Umm… Yeah?

No I was referring to the publicity thing. When a man does it it’s not as big of a news story vs when a woman does it, as I believe to be anecdotally evidenced by the news stories I mentioned.

You sure? I remember reading a string of articles along the lines of “female teacher sentenced for sex with boy in her class”, which rather disgustingly tended to attract a lot of “nice” and “I wish I was the boy” like comments.

Doesn’t higher interests mean more money is spent paying those interests, meaning less money is available to spend on other things which in turn reduces the monetary supply in circulation which curbs inflation?

I meant a library unknown to me specifically. I do encounter hallucinations every now and then but usually they’re quickly fixable.

It’s made me a little bit faster, sometimes. It’s certainly not like a 50-100% increase or anything, maybe like a 5-10% at best?

I tend to write a comment of what I want to do, and have Copilot suggest the next 1-8 lines for me. I then check the code if it’s correct and fix it if necessary.

For small tasks it’s usually good enough, and I’ve already written a comment explaining what the code does. It can also be convenient to use it to explore an unknown library or functionality quickly.

Terrorism is more about the intent rather than the result. Did Israel intend to instill terror in the civilian population or did they genuinely try to target Hezbollah militants (and perhaps didn’t care much about any civilian casualties)?

I don’t know, but the critics won’t be the ones to have to do so. They can point towards comments like yours suggesting that non-Jewish people should become members to begin claiming it’s a “fake” Jewish org. This sows distrust in the organisation.

At least, that is what I think the other commenter meant. I don’t care who becomes a member myself.

If a lot of non-Jewish people become members, critics could argue that the organisation isn’t really “Jewish” voices for peace.

And according to new research, Columbus wasn’t Italian after all but a Spanish Jew. Though it hasn’t been peer-reviewed yet so it remains to be seen if it holds up to scrutiny.

RFCs aren’t really law you know. They can deviate, it just means less compatibility.

I mean they would be, but that would still be much less clock-changing to do.

Biden should get his share of the blame for what happened after October 7th. But he wasn’t the initial cause of what happened that day.

Biden did not really do all that much when it came to ME relations. He was considerably busier with Ukraine so the ME got less interest during his admin.

Trump took the major steps, e.g. the moving of the embassy, the attempts to broker peace between KSA and Israel (which of course there are rumours he/his kids personally profited from), he openly challenged Iran without much repercussions, etc… All signalling to Hamas that their cause had little chance of succeeding as their international support was clearly eroding away.

Biden didn’t reverse course, but there was little to do here. Looks bad to reverse a peace agreement or cave to Iran or to move an embassy out of Jerusalem. Not that I think he had the foresight that Hamas’d do this either. I doubt he even gave it much thought due to being preoccupied with Ukraine.

Some have some kind of date tracking built in. But it’s fairly rare.

Yes. These major decisions have long-term effects. But note I did say indirect cause; the full reason is multi-faceted and very complex, and hard to pin down on just one person. But it certainly played a big part if Hamas directly named it as such.
