I am speculating wildly but I would expect the exact opposite due to different actors trying to destabilize the US to the point of no recovery in such an event.

> to the point of no recovery

Interesting, are you saying that the intentional use of USD somehow makes the US more vulnerable? What failure mode are you thinking of?

"Most" is the key word here. In my experience that's also the case for LLMs.

On most mobile maps, you can adjust the angle by dragging up or down with two fingers.

I'm not sure I agree. I love cheating as long as it doesn't inconvenience others. Both trying to become the narrator in this game and winning unconventionally or using bugs in singleplayer games is what makes things fun for me.

Thanks for the original comment—I picked up something new that I hadn't considered before.

That said, you could spin this by suggesting that the mathematician living in that non-Euclidean space might also have a different perspective on numbers. If we assume pi is still constant for him, then the numbers he's always known could be shifting in value but maybe that's a stretch.

Surprisingly I've learned to think like this (outside of work) thanks to Agile

It's probably just the common US-centric bias that external development teams, particularly those overseas, may deliver subpar software quality. This notion is often veiled under seemingly intellectual critiques to avoid overt xenophobic rhetoric like "They're taking our jobs!".

Alternatively, there might be a general assumption that lower development costs equate to inferior quality, which is a flawed yet prevalent human bias.

“You get what you pay for” is still a reasonable metric, even if it is more a relative scale than an absolute one.

I don't usually comment on HN because I don't feel like I can bring much value to the discussion in many cases and I would agree to moderate it even stricter even if my (rare) comments would be removed.

In real life on the other hand I want to be able to say stupid things and even if I might be more sensible to others' "hate speech" I would not want that to be banned.

Did you remove the metadata before sending it? The bathroom story is far too impressive if you did, and could help identify kidnapping victims' locations

Yes. I even resized and reencoded after running the images through an EXIF stripper and verifying there was only pixel data left.

Ubiquitous world knowledge is a powerful police tool.

I don't think that point stands for peanuts. I can get a 500g bag of peanuts right now for 2.7 Euros and most likely the reason for that is the cost of living around here.
