I just unpinned the post. I figured there may be others bothered by this, and plus its been enough weeks at this point. Thanks for voicing this to me :)
Outside of academia, would you say it still provides significant upside over markdown?
I'm sorry I don't know of any way to do that :( does it appear even when you're browsing your main feed??
Is it practical outside of academia? I heard the learning curve is kinda big
Markdown is awesome, I agree! I did not realize you could extend markdown with anything other than html. The html extension is quite nice to do anything that markdown doesn't support natively, but I wish there was an easier way to extend markdown. Maybe the ones you listed are what I need.
Can you please explain what this is?
Why not matrix?
You're correct that inflation is the devaluation of money. The value of a unit of money is represented by what that unit can buy, so the person you replied to is also correct. This is why the most used indicators of inflation are measures of buying power.
If my money is devalued, it means that when I was able to buy 1 gallon of milk, I can now only buy 3/4ths a gallon with the same amount.
So while you're correct in your over simplified example that inflation can be caused by the growth in "pool of money", as you alluded, it is not that simple and its not the only cause. Moreover, inflation still manifests itself in the form of prices increasing. If pool of money grows, but prices remain the same, there's no inflation.
This does not necessitate a "canal of businessmen" conspiring.
Yes you're right. Did not realize that's what you meant 😅
Wouldn't you be able to do the same with NFS?
I do not have a lot of knowledge on this, but I suspect that nvidia does not support the GTX1070 that well on Linux.
AND supports Linux better. As for nvidia, newer cards have a bit better support but I bet there's still some disparity.
Why is JSON better than XML? It's more modern, sure, but from technical perspective it is not objectively better right? Not something worth switching protocols for.
You mention XMPP has transports as opposed to Matrix bridges. I thought they give you roughly the same outcome. What's the difference?
