It’s not my job to fix their bugs. It’s not my job to handhold them through it. You are better off anonymously posting the full bug online and let god sort it out.
You're paying exactly $0 for support for this software. So any support (eg: bug fixes) you get are a gift. That means that if you (1) use their software, (2) don't provide a good bug reports to help them fix their bugs, and (3) complain about how it's not your job to fix them then... you, my dear person, are acting like an entitled ass.
It's not hand-holding to provide a good bug report, it's essential to make the bug report actionable. curl is so widely-used that bugs often come from a combination of the software and the environment (OS, libraries, etc). Without enough details to reproduce a bug, then the bug is often impossible to track down. This means: recreate the environment, the actions that led to the bug, and create the bug itself.
An equally valid headline is "Investors purchased $8B of US Treasury Bonds". Never really got the point of people announcing US Treasury sales like its a big thing. Someone else not thinking with their emotions can, and will buy them. Its like announcing publicly you are selling your Honda. Its your Honda bro, sell it.
"Investors purchased $8B of US Treasury Bonds from the non-issuing entity."
If you're Honda, you'd prefer that the purchaser of any Honda is purchasing their Honda from Honda. Honda doesn't care about the secondary sale of any one Honda, per se, but they'd certainly care if people start opening dealerships with fleets of effectively brand new Hondas immediately next to every Honda dealership.
Additionally, every seller that was a previous long-term holder represents decreased demand for Treasuries at the primary auction. Mark Carney put it eloquently yesterday during his speech with his analogy of "taking the sign out of the window". This represents someone taking their bid out of the auction.
The fund sold off most of their US bonds, some journalist heard about it and considered it newsworthy and published an article. DI.se’s readers are largely also benefactors/owners of Alecta’s, so that seems fair.
Someone else considered it worthy of sharing here and enough people here found it interesting enough to get it to the front page. I don’t quite understand why, but it seems like it’s striking some sort of chord.
It is the second substantial sell from EU. Additionally, those things gain momentum fast since the later you sell the less money you make from the bonds you are selling.
So everyone doesn't want to be last and the sell-off takes off fast and violently, forcing unmanageable interest rates.
It has importance beyond that someone else bought the bonds. It also suggests they will not be buyers in the future. If they represent the beginning of a trend and Europe stops buying US bonds, that will be a serious blow to the US economy.
If Honda wants to keep the value of Honda at what it is today and enough people are selling their Honda's then Honda is at some point going to have to support the market if they want to have any chance of selling Honda's in the future. And Honda has only so much capital to spend before the company itself is at risk.
This is not exactly right. True, $8B is not earth shattering because of the US's enormous debt. But by removing a potential $8B owner, it is a reduction in demand, and thus a tiny reduction in price. This is literally the first rule of pricing: "supply and demand".
Sure, someone else is on the other side of the deal. But their demand is also satiated at a certain price point. Hell, if they wanted to buy from other sellers then it's not like T bills were not liquid.
Would you say the same if Norway's wealth fund offloaded their $181B? At those scales it would be more likely that it'd be visibly price affecting, and therefore affect the US's ability to borrow at existing cost.
So yes, when you sell your one NVDA, you are reducing demand and thus price. Epsilon, but nonzero.
Because the implication is that underlying asset is regressing or degrading. It's very obvious, and this comment just highlights your lack of reading comprehension.
You could say the same when your stock price drops because large investors dumped your stock suddenly. Yes, there was a buying party (or they wouldn't have been able to sell), but the price drop hurts your company and worse can trigger more sales and more price drops.
similar with the US T-bonds - this pushes the yield up making it more expensive for the US to finance its debt (which already consumes nearly a fifth of the entire federal budget).
You block inbound to block inbound. Of course it doesn’t do anything for outbound. Acting like you can just turn inbound filtering off because of that is disingenuous.
My problem with Chase and PNC is that their "fraud detection" seems to be random die rolls or monkeys throwing darts at my picture on a wall. I love the 5 minutes of anxiety after each and every purchase where I wonder if it will just randomly fail.
This example shows nicely how ugly text processing is: you have to use head and tail simply to trim out the first line of ls (the total).
I think it doesn't even work correctly. ls lists files and directories and then picks the first 4 (it should only select files).
And this also uses awk and jq, which are not just simple "one purpose" tools, but pretty much complete programming languages. jq is not even part of most standard installations, it has to be installed first.
I'd replace the first part with (which isn't any shorter, but in general if I want a list of files for a pipeline, find is usually more flexible than ls for anything but the most trivial):
find -maxdepth 1 -type f -printf '%s %f\n' | sort -n | head -n 5
For the latter part, I'd tend to think that if you're going to use awk and jq, you might as well use Ruby.
("-nae" effectively takes an expression on the command line (-e), wraps it in "while gets; ... end" (-a), and adds the equivalent to "$F = $_.split" before the first line of your expression (-n))
It's still ugly, so no competition for nushell still.
I'd be inclined to drop a little wrapper in my bin with a few lines of helpers (see my other comment) and do all Ruy if I wanted to get closer without having to change shells...
It's close, but there are some things that could be better to make it easier to access e.g. file size and type. I think maybe a 50-100 line set of helpers and a one line wrapper (to spawn Ruby with -r<helper> -e <command line>) would get you mostly to where nushell is.
> And this also uses awk and jq, which are not just simple "one purpose" tools, but pretty much complete programming languages
In a way that exactly illustrates the GGP's point: why learn a new language (nushell's) when you can learn awk or jq, which are arguably more generally- and widely-applicable than nushell. Or if awk and jq are too esoteric, you could even pipe the output of `find` into the python or ruby interpreters (one of which you may already know, and are much more generally applicable than nushell, awk, or jq), with a short in-line script on the command line.
> awk or jq, which are arguably more generally- and widely-applicable than nushell
That is backwards. I know I said "complete programming languages", but to be fair, awk only shines when it comes to "records processing", jq only shines for JSON processing. nushell is more like a general scripting language — much more flexible.
I don’t compile from my phone but I do write code using it. I use fossil for version control. The in browser editor is good enough to get ideas down. It has great diffs which is also nice. I will check in code and move it to a branch then revisit it when I’m home.
