Yeah this is one of the main uses for Reddit.

It might be harder with Lemmy instances spread across different domains, but hopefully the search engines learn to prioritize Lemmy well

You know you can get ducks for free from the park, right?

I hope you don’t mind me asking, but two main questions come to mind when I hear about triple digit inflation.

First, is it normal to keep savings in another currency? I know in Turkey at least, it’s common to save money in gold, but I don’t know if either that or saving in, for example USD, is common.

Second, how do raises work in times like that? As things inflate at rates like that, your salary would so quickly become quite outdated. Are raises or job hopping common at that point?

And I guess a third question. How do you even life bro? I’m fortunate to live in a country with relatively high incomes and stable currency, and our 10% inflation hurt.

Balls. That’s genuinely infuriating.

This would be weird having Riccardo in the AT seat, seeing as he was the last teammate who could compete with Verstappen, but it probably makes sense.

It sounds so easy. I don’t understand why I can’t do it.

The ability to share the work with non technical co-workers could be huge. You might be able to do everything with pandas, but Jim in sales is too busy casting staplers in jello to learn how to set up a python environment

The Gregorian calendar is pretty solid actually. Other than a leap second every few years, it’ll stay in sync for a few thousand years. You can easily calculate all leap days in a one-liner.

365 is semi prime, so we could do a 5 day week, but that’s pretty minor in the grand scheme of things. There isn’t a lot to improve on the Gregorian calendar

What would Unix time improve? Yeah let’s schedule to meet at 1693456789, repeating every 7*86,400 seconds.

Time zones are a mess, but that’s not the fault of the calendar.

Signed integers are the best integers.
