Once the results come out, so let’s hope for the best!
No, tbh I don’t. I did okay in the written test, but I’m sure I can’t manage a conversation.
I did the reading comprehension and listening parts quite nicely, and predictably struggled with the essay. Quite likely passed though.
Surprisingly, it did go pretty well! As expected, not very great on the writing skills side, but overall OK aside from that.
I wanted to delete all the subfolders in the current directory:
rm -rf ./*
After a few seconds, I realize in horror that I had mistyped the path. Whole system nuked. Had backups though.
“Escanciar” in Spanish means pouring from a height for the purpose of mixing a beverage (usually cider) with air. I suppose it would still be valid if you’re pouring a mix from some height.
“Socialism turns out to work pretty well and is beating our ass” --> “Now, no one — certainly not me — is discounting the power of markets,” Sullivan noted at the time. “But in the name of oversimplified market efficiency, a large non-market economy had been integrated into the international economic order in a way that posed considerable challenges.”
Curious how long they’ll be able to go on with the narrative that inflation will go down and interest rates will be reduced soon…
Very cool context, thx!
If you can’t find a tool, this has worked to some degree for me. Open on e.g. GIMP, scale the images to the desired size in different layers, use perspective transform to align them very precisely, then set layer opacity so that you can merge them down with equal weight on each photo. It’s not a really good method, but might do the job. Good luck!
Lately I use it for hobby projects, but also for academic stuff (e.g., interacting with experimental devices, sensors). Rust allows me to write fast code quickly while not spending a long time with valgrind.
No side wants to give you affordable healthcare and housing. If they say they want to do it, but then do absolutely nothing in that general direction, they don’t want to do it.
I wonder what the writings were, although I’m cautious on believing that they were antisemitic, since hating Jews and hating Israel have historically been opposing positions expressed by two widely different demographics, and now that division is clearer than ever.
Printing money is just one way that inflation can appear. The latest trends in that respect are in fact not caused by money-printing.
Interesting, I always thought it was a country thing, but you’re right that it’s simply a widespread confusion.
Feels weird to see the Caduceus associated hith Hippocrates; here in Europe I’ve only seen it used as a symbol of trade, while the Rod of Asclepius is the more common symbol for medicine.
Well, to be fair there are indeed enough houses… We kinda just assumed they would, by the grace of the market, end up distributed among virtually all people and at a fair price. The reason they never did and increasingly don’t is one of the largest unsolved problems in economics /s
It’s a really cool puzzle, nice job! The solution being a huge prisoner’s dilemma makes it all the more interesting and deep. I guess an iterated version resulting in collaboration would be difficult in this particular case, though ;)
They count it as Linux, yes!
