That chart says it’s for households, not individuals so for the time scale shown (70s onwards) all you’re seeing is that 1 earner households became 2 earner households.
The stuff about upper class growing does not follow from that. Poor analysis.
Maybe? Problem is either that it can be and is always disabled by driver, or it's very quiet, because I as a healthy man in their 20s, hear the pavement tire noise before any other noise, and the car is already really close at that point
In the EU and UK markets we don’t have an option to disable the AVAS noise generator.
It self disables above something like 10kmh when, as you say, tyre roar is the predominant sound a car makes (unless someone is revving the engine I suppose).
> How much do you trust your government with your money?
The money that they issue? Your question is radically flawed.
That aside your main point is that crypto continues to be as relevant in cross jurisdiction payments even after the introduction of a pix like system of payments in each country.
Crypto transaction volumes across all crypto currencies are so low compared to FOREX in any of the worlds currencies (even relatively unused ones - currency speculators still drive transactions even there) that it’s basically irrelevant today in this use case. So your argument becomes it’s irrelevant today and will continue to be tomorrow.
If you’re to express the volume of all crypto transactions, not just those for the purpose of international transaction, just everything in all crypto currencies. The daily volume compared to transactions in all the other non crypto currencies ends up looking like a homeopathic dilution ratio, 0.00000000000000…%
I’m working on this just now and this article was one of the ones passed around when I was working through the design. I found that article’s framing really useful for several of the discussions.
I’m heavily down the path of composability, it’s all ended up very monadic but I’ve resisted the DSL idea. One thing that I’ve still to solve is some kind of polyglot binding. If I’m saying no dsl and you get to express config in a regular programming language, it’d be nice if I could say your home / preferred language. Every way I’ve come up with for that so far just sucks.
That’s all the more reason to go event driven right?
If the milk needed replenishing more often, maybe polling the shelf makes more sense - hey the rate of consumption is higher today, I’ll re-order early. That high throughput optimisation doesn’t really shake out if you’re always just waiting for the replenishment event to fire.
A shortwave radio station is a single point of failure. You can either physically interrupt the transmitter - conveniently it tells you exactly where it is the whole time it is transmitting. Or, you can broadcast interference.
The internet or digital communications does not share that same single point of failure.
It's not exactly like this.
The localization is not easy, because the distances are huge (several thousands of kilometers) and shortwaves are bouncing over the atmosphere. Think about the number stations, that are still not localized after years.
And even jamming it's not always easy: the Turkish government usually jam the Kurdish shortwave stations like Denge Welat targeting Europe, but they are moving up or down in frequency to avoid the jamming. Moreover, you need a lot of power to jam another station.
Another advantage of the shortwave is that it don't require a complex hardware neither infrastructure to receive them: a rudimentary AM receiver is very simple to implement and can work also on battery for long time.
Frequency hopping algorithms can be used. Multiple transmitters, globally dispersed and coordinating with each other can deliver service. Shortwave can be digital.
Not everything is a competition, other means of communication don't mean the internet has no use.
Imagine being able to push micro-blogs to a local station and having it broadcasted globally over shortwave.
Interference is a problem for sure, but that's only in one potential scenario (open warfare with troops / interference broadcasting nearby); for all the other scenarios it's good to have a backup.
