For example, this blog may have had syndication (RSS/atom/jsonfeed) by default if a blogging framework was leveraged.

Do you know of a CEC adapter which can do HDMI2.1 4K120Hz? What has held me back from this setup is only being able to find 4K60Hz CEC adapters.

Modern PCIe NVME drives typically see a few microsecond latency, but even DDR2 latency was around 10 nanoseconds. Memory remains top dog by a long shot.

Fall of Civilizations: https://fallofcivilizationspodcast.com/
Each episode is of exceptional quality and retells history in an engaging manor. Since it's history, the entire backlog is still relevant.

> Tax dollars don't fund the government. The government funds the government. That's what "Fiat currency" means.
There was $4.9 trillion in revenue and $6.8 trillion in outlays in 2024 [1]. 95% of that revenue was from taxes. In spite of the high deficit, it remains a true statement that the federal government is funded by taxes as they account for the majority of funding.

Those lending to the US government are doing so by purchasing US Treasury bonds, which have due dates and earn interest.
Based on the credit rating of the US government, they will certainly not end up with less in nominal terms.

Those statistics are for New York State, not NYC.
See page 27 (PDF page 33) of [0].
Commercial natural gas usage in NYC is roughly 40% of non-power generation natural gas usage. The actual proportion varies greatly depending on time of year, presumably due to natural gas heating in residential properties in colder months.

I believe part of the reason for American companies to not list teams publicly is to guard against easily poaching talent using that data.

I have had this taken to me. Taxi drivers "accidently" take the wrong turn into a tunnel that adds at least an extra mile to the trip. You are billed directly on distance traveled so it is not surprising.

Interesting edge case. Perhaps we need something other than MST for Arizona (excluding Navajo Nation) if we want a lack of ambiguity. If only politicians knew how annoying dealing with time is for software developers!

I would work remotely from a small town, away from the fast life of urban areas. Property costs are significantly lower, as with crime and traffic. Possibilities include somewhere on the DelMarVa peninsula. Constraints include 50+ Mbps internet and a newer house without asbestos/lead paint.

I'd argue that DuckDuckGo's behaviour is the correct one, but they should display a warning when the east cost is on EDT and someone requests conversion with EST. Maybe we will stop using daylight savings before the masses learn the difference between ET/EST/EDT.
