34% additional. AFAICT they already charged 34%.

Does that put us at 68%?

KCL is amazing and growing quickly.

Can use Crossplane function KCL too.

It's not just healthcare though.

paid for childcare

Plus it may be that the healthcare requirements are beyond what the market would typically provide.

Almost all employers offer some kind of healthcare benefit, but many of those are completely useless plans.

I'd rather we just stop funding, but at least there's some restrictions imposed here.

I'm completely against financial systems controlled by governments, but to me there's some silver lining here.

The more the US attempts sanctions like this the more people will work to abandon legacy government controlled systems. And, if sanctions are gonna target anyone, I suppose settler opportunists like these are a good target.

Fine, but they can still sell it for a lump sum and rent. Thus it truly is like retirement savings.

Further, a mortgage uses other people's money as leverage on an appreciating asset. Of course it's not always a great deal, but here in the states, inflation and low mortgage rates generally combine to make this a killer deal -- if you can actually get in the market at all that is.

Sure, if you don't consider worker productivity to be a ratio work per unit cost.

Reduced office costs are real. You would have to pay more per employee just for the office costs alone.

This then demands concrete proof that productivity is higher in office -- which has never been provided.

Is the positive impacts anecdotal?

No. Lack of commute is concrete and tangible. Even just from an emissions standpoint.

Decreased spending on office space is not anecdotal, but again concrete.

I love you guys!

The existence of a deep state precludes fixing a shallow one.

Nah just fed.

It's a local farmer. Only the last two months are grain.

I was getting Grass fed and Finished before I moved.

Grass fed and grain finished meat tastes better though the health benefits may be lesser. IDK

What is cooking oil?

Seed oil?

Cause no thank you!!

Luckily everyone seems to think animal fats are no good, so my family gets grass fed tallow for $30 a gallon tub.

Tallow and lard are excellent for frying or fattening bready items.

IDK what's new, but I'm 100 percent in agreement.

If you claim logical consistency, I don't know how the group having rights an individual does not ever gets reconciled.

In a town of three if two vote to take from the third it's clearly not just.

Yet somehow as the group size grows people lose sight of that.

You're right. It's just most of the time these sort of claims are so distant. I just find it interesting to have been proximate to the places mentioned. That's all.

As an ex-Oregonian, this is particularly interesting. To most this must just sound like craziness, and the intentional release part may be, but for sure there's a primate research facility right in Hillsboro, OR.

Apparently my grandfather helped design something with the cages, which is just weird for me.

"Be really, really good at what you do and someone will notice."

Isn't that just life though?

Like do what you're passionate about because there's no point failing to succeed at something you're not that into.

cert-manager though amiright?

Like what's going on there?

Nobody has the majority. That's also the point.

those who have the hardware and made billions, compared to those who did not and who were at the mercy of fluctuations.

I don't know what you could even mean. Having hardware just means you can mine BTC. Miners still deal with price fluctuations, and in no way have they been able to control or print BTC.

...it has nothing to do with democratisation or taking the power away from the government.

If the government couldn't take limitless loans from the Fed which creates debt from nothing -- a fancy way of saying print money -- if the government couldn't print money it would have to tax for it's expenditure and would be naturally constrained in it's power.

I honestly can't understand any of your positions and can only believe you're incredibly uniformed about the reality of money, power, and the genisis of and technology behind many crypto currencies.

Maybe BTC but XMR was built with anonymity in mind to begin with.

And as for BTC, the lightning network will add a level of anonymity as well.

Further, even if people with guns can track you, at least the people with guns can print more BTC or XMR to buy still more guns with.

You're not making any real argument here, so I can't exactly refute it.

Proof of Work is a means of preventing any one actor from controlling bitcoin. Proof of Work is energy intensive, but the currency exists in a government resistant manner without the use of guns because of Proof of Work.

Yes, it's a funny joke and all, but really it is made to resist that as well. And what I mean by that is that it's a currency you can use without a bank and is not controllable by those with wrenches.

BTC and Monero were built to resist laws made by people with guns.

There were other attempts at digital currency before BTC, but they were all taken down by people with guns.

That's kinda the whole point. That's why BTC uses energy. It's a means of resistance to people with guns.

Boy that BTC rug pull really hurt.

I'm still totally reeling from the XMR rug pull. Oh, wait...

Just because many are scams, doesn't mean there are no principled crypto currencies.

God forbid one should have to perform due diligence and actually think a bit about their currency.

I love this perspective. Not all physical laws have been proven in the grand scale of the universe, yet we narrow mindedly assume every one of these laws always hold -- I mean they're laws right!? -- and then we base all theories on what could be misconceptions.

And realizing this makes theoretical physics much more interesting as there are so many more possibilities to how reality works than what's proscribed.

I also wonder how much of our dogmatic adherence to these laws are preventing us from progressing.

Custom Resource + Controller = Operator. Good call!

Operators are clients of the Kubernetes API that act as controllers for a Custom Resource.

... can't stand the fact that "the government just gave away money to a bunch freeloaders."

I kind of feel this way, but about the free money given to corporations that didn't really need it -- not individuals.

I've had similar thoughts, but I always land on the asymetry between governments and its populace being the key issue.

If transparency is the norm, governments need to go first.

Since that will never happen, the only solution remains privacy for all, or no government at all.

Wow, thank you for writing all this.

I was fat or at least struggling to maintain for most of my life.

I've essentially learned similar ideas over the past few years and have had great success

Nobody said they didn't. The article details that.

What's claimed not to exist is a Zero Coupon Perpetual Bond. A bond that never matures and pays no interest.

Of course then the article claims crypto is this type of bond. It's a mathy financial jargon gimmick argument.

Woof, I'm middle aged, but that was still tough to read.

I don't know why you're downvoted.

My company literally does Remittance using Crypto and business is booming.

And I completely agree with the other uses.

Those downvoting, mind at least providing some arguments with those votes?
