Please tell me this is a joke. The fact tether trades readily on an exchange is a major factor for it being convertible, even if at a price you don’t like.

I don’t know where you got this advice from but this is precisely wrong from my reading of the rules. An asset exchange between two non legal tender assets is treated exactly the same as any other disposal and acquisition and absolutely is a chargeable event.

it looks like in the future it might be a better way of implementing khttpd by handing over from a userspace control program the accept->read->sendfile->close sequence of async operations to the kernel

the rise of this submission to the front page and the swift sinking back under the waves, along with the vote war on comments here is interesting. this place isn't nearly so left-leaning as i'd assumed.

I like CDK because: 1. it's type-checked (using your choice of language/compiler) 2. modularity is done using in-app code, rather than extending serverless with plugins in javascript 3. i think cdk scales better to projects composed of multiple stacks 4. it's somewhat testable

The gentrification argument is strange to me.

Gentrification as an effect happens when an area becomes more desirable to live in. That means here that people place a positive value on public transport.

To deny an area the benefit of public transport based on some weird altruistic and paternalistic motive doesn't really seem credible.

It's really tail wagging the dog too. To say we should just keep areas shitty or undesirable to avoid gentrification seems totally backwards.

see the analysis of guccifer 2 and the dnc hack. i don't think there's a substitute for old-fashioned detective work. and luck of course.

without a doubt: Calculus in a single variable with Robert Ghrist https://www.coursera.org/learn/single-variable-calculus

for lots of people here it'll revisit some material you learnt at school but it does go further and the materials are fantastic and the exam at the end is no pushover either.
