I was under the impression that selecting debit when paying at the cashier means a direct debit of your account happens (as this article seems to imply). Which isn't subject to laws protecting consumers which apply to credit cards.
However selecting credit by the cashier - while using eg a MasterCard branded debit card still gives you the consumer protections (eg when disputing charges the onus is on the bank etc)
Am I completely wrong about this? Is the only difference the payment rail that gets used - and that has no affect on whick consumer protection laws you fall under?
A Twitter thread [1] from Matthew Green in this bill. Essentially he says that this bill is a dead on arrival bill which is designed to make EARN IT look like a fair compromise.
"That's not to say that the 480 million have all died as a consequence of the fires because some things are going to be mobile — birds will fly away and come back," Dickman added.
"Some reptiles, like lizards, would perhaps go underground," he continued.
>Not only that but the 8th generation developer edition supports Suspend-to-idle natively which allows the system to resume much more quickly from sleep.
What's different about this from before? I have an xps9350 with fedora - and have noticed sometimes buggy suspending (it shuts down instead of suspending) - but it usually got fixed with kernel update
When the Federal reserve lowered interest rates investors had to look for places to invest their money to make a larger return. Now that rates have risen there is not as much money flowing to VCs because there are safer - albeit less profitable - investments
Wendover had a good video about China's rail network a while ago. [1]
Major points are:
1. China is willing to build loves that aren't self sustainable - whereas the USA isn't (and the US doesn't factor in the social benefits)
2. China's airspace is mostly military - leading to only small flight corridors and therefore significant delays for flights - making trains more reliable
3. China is willing to make train lines that make no sense beyond connecting areas that are not as friendly to the government to areas that are in the hope of increasing government support in those areas
If I remember correctly, rust doesn't help with deadlocks - you still have to be careful of them. Though it does have primitives to help significantly with race conditions
It's also one of the ways for detecting the amount of pee in a pool - if people had a diet Coke before they peed then it can easily be detected. (Urea can be released via sweat I believe - so that's not a good signal)
What frameworks would you use to handle such an steep growth curve? Most startups I know of start of with rails or the like - and obviously they couldn't handle the strain. So what would you use?
