This article is confusing. It makes it sound like NZ set a target of 2% inflation, when in actuality they set a target range of 0-2%, so 2% was the ceiling not the target.
https://www.rba.gov.au/publications/confs/2018/mcdermott-wil... figure 1 and table 1 makes it more clear.
Naturally central bankers have been happy to turn a ceiling into a target/floor.
In my own personal testing (you can run on your machine in a couple minutes), FF57 is 10% faster than FF56 on that benchmark, and Chrome 60 is 10% faster than FF57.
I often miss the news for a day (too busy) or a week (traveling/camping) and then want to catch up. Also sometimes I avoid the news for a day because I'm avoiding a sporting event spoiler. Most websites/newspapers are geared toward today and don't let you easily see what they looked like yesterday or a week ago. Even better would be allowing a time range and being able to see the top news during that time period.
Some basic filtering would be nice too. For example, I might want to see a politics-free feed, but right now that would require looking at three different categories. It would be nice if each category had a checkbox next to it, and clicking on the label selected the category and clicking on the checkbox deactivated it when no category is selected. Also it would be nice to be able to add search strings that would remove items, so I could add "Trump" to a list and not see any articles with that in the headline (or maybe in the summary). As it is now under Business I'd still get a lot of Trump-related news.
Also curious why you chose to have some feeds off by default.
The feature they got rid of was a single RSS feed for all your subscriptions.
They've had per channel RSS feeds and OPML export since they got rid of that, I believe.
I've created several filters for personal use with EDL. mplayer has a decent UI way of doing that while watching the film by pressing 'i' to start a cut and 'i' again to end the cut. It's nowhere near perfect though because you still have to edit the edl file to decide whether to cut video or mute audio.
One nice feature you could add to this editing UI would be to use the subtitle file to allow jumping to the locations of certain language in order to edit them (times in subtitles aren't enough to edit a single word).
In Go, anyone can place a stone as well as anyone else, it's deciding where to place a stone that's the game. In Starcraft, not everyone can control the interface to the game equally well. Playing Starcraft without using the same interface as humans is like playing baseball with something other than a baseball bat.
Also, I think it's unfortunate that they're choosing Starcraft 1: Brood War (presumably because of API reasons) instead of Starcraft 2, since there are many more top-level players playing sc2 right now to give it a run for its money, with an evolving meta that could more likely adapt and challenge the AI after it wins some matches. SC2 is where the tournaments and money is right now (compared to BW), hence the best players devoting the most time.
