The headline says “Gnome dev” not just “Gnome”.

So nothing specific? They were mad at him?

And Dean Phillips did run in the primary, so again, nobody stopped him. Biden defeated him.

How did Democratic insiders prevent other candidates from running in the primaries?

Damn. I was wondering why my tickets from Juliaca to Lima were so expensive.

Consider how much less you have to work if you don't have kids.

This is false, and is explained by the block of text below that chart. The definition of M1 was changed. Notice the addition of savings and money market accounts.

Thank you for demonstrating the lack of critical thinking I was describing.

> Before May 2020, M1 consists of (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; (2) demand deposits at commercial banks (excluding those amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions) less cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float; and (3) other checkable deposits (OCDs), consisting of negotiable order of withdrawal, or NOW, and automatic transfer service, or ATS, accounts at depository institutions, share draft accounts at credit unions, and demand deposits at thrift institutions.

> Beginning May 2020, M1 consists of (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; (2) demand deposits at commercial banks (excluding those amounts held by depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign banks and official institutions) less cash items in the process of collection and Federal Reserve float; and (3) other liquid deposits, consisting of OCDs and savings deposits (including money market deposit accounts). Seasonally adjusted M1 is constructed by summing currency, demand deposits, and OCDs (before May 2020) or other liquid deposits (beginning May 2020), each seasonally adjusted separately.

I think “make redundant” in this context means “fire”.

Agreed, but this is such a red flag that a commenter is not thinking critically. Do they really think we quadrupled the money supply in a short time? And the only effect was 10% inflation? Usually that would disprove all of their other assumptions about the relationship between the money printer and inflation.

I don’t think they wait very long. I used Lyft recently and they only combined charges within a single day.

I get this, but I don’t get why that means we should do away with VPNs, etc. Isn’t “in my private network” an additional piece of information that can be used to help authenticate a client?
