I seem to experience troubles like that with any kind of Bluetooth devices. E.g., sometimes they don't connect or disconnect or lag. At this point, I am suspicious of the entire Bluetooth technology. The same is with WiFi actually: it does work well most of the time but sometimes it does not (for whatever reasons, bugs? changes in environment?).

I think I have read somewhere that inflation in the end of the 17th - first half of 18th century was almost zero or there was even a deflation. I may be wrong. Maybe someone has a good source?

If I'd drive a car, which is a dangerous thing on its own, I'd be for minimizing the risks of harming someone or myself. My current mitigation of this risk is not driving a car at all.

The API gateway quotas look broken for me. I raised the limit to 5000 keys but it looks like the standard limit of 500 applies. Which is strange because I have more than 500 API keys...

Then the search engine itself would be probably thrown away :-D

I also found the following sentence strange:

> That belief is partly why many Irish, Italian and Polish immigrants who came to America in the early 20th century whitened their children's names to avoid persecution and increase their chances of social mobility.

> Tim Machuga is a software engineer who also knows what it's like to be black for a minute. He is a white man with an African name.

A typical Eastern European last name to me.

I wonder what does my first name (Oleksii) sound like to folks in the US?

If spending time on Facebook is work, why is my employer not happy?

So you are saying, basically, if there was Unix why do we have Windows since no one asked for it.

On the positive side, running your own website or a forum is now easier than ever. I think more people should do it.
