That's some big inflation
It is caused by this
And supply shock, and wage growth, and tons of other things. You literally said "inflation is an increase in the money supply"
That's some big inflation
Inflation is not growth in the money supply, money supply is one way that inflation can occur, but the basis of inflation is the increase in nominal costs of everyday prices.

Honestly I don't see why buying data on the open market is illegal. I think it shouldn't be legal to sell it but it is. I'd prefer nobody have access than the NSA pretend they don't see what anyone else can buy.
Because you only get one message. There's no way to speak only to one group of people.
The losers are the rest of us who can't live freely because of the threat of right wing terrorism
Because it's not a conspiracy theory - there was an impeachment trial about this.
Their evidence of Nazism was Ukranians asserting a separate identity and language from Russia. It's tantamount to calling Native Americans Nazis for protesting forced assimilation.
Correction, their opinions are worthwhile to the extent useful to obliterate their ideology from the planet
Seriously, no sincere white supremacist genuinely thought Zelenskyy's administration was sympathetic to their cause. Neo-Nazis are Putinists through and through.
Honestly this is great though. The GOP should be bombarded with this fact for the entire primary, make sure Haley supporters never want to hold their nose in the general.
Of all sad words of tongue and pen the saddest are these: Hillary was right again.
Don't get me wrong it's great the number of accounts that have moved there, but we're not even close to where we need to be to make one platform the go-to place like Twitter was.
The problem is that we're scattering. A handful to Bluesky. A smattering to Mastodon. A pittance to Lemmy. Building a unified community on a single platform again will take years.
It's not that Americans are stupid. Any nation can fall into the same trap if we devolve control of our infrastructure to plutocrats who look down on the public.
It's the attitude that Americans are dumb and deserve our fate that's shared by the elite who make it their business to fuck over the most vulnerable of us.
The fat is still opaque my dude
Federal regulators will review the use of a chemical found in tires after a petition from Native American tribes in California and Washington state.
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/7820643
U.S. regulators say they will review the use of a chemical found in almost every tire after a petition from West Coast Native American tribes that want it banned because it kills salmon as they return from the ocean to their natal streams to spawn.
The Yurok tribe in California and the Port Gamble S’Klallam and Puyallup tribes in Washington asked the Environmental Protection Agency to prohibit the rubber preservative 6PPD earlier this year, saying it kills fish — especially coho salmon — when rains wash it from roadways into rivers. Washington, Oregon, Vermont, Rhode Island and Connecticut also wrote the EPA, citing the chemical’s “unreasonable threat” to their waters and fisheries.
The agency’s decision to grant the petition last week is the start of a long regulatory process that could see the chemical banned. Tire manufacturers are already looking for an alternative that still meets federal safety requirements.

Smuggled Promotional Notifications: Will Google do anything to stop app authors from doing this?
A couple of times I've been presented with notifications from commercial apps downloaded from the Play store that are very clearly promotional material. Thankfully, Android allows me to block particular notification channels if I swipe the notification lightly and hit the gear icon. I can disable the particular "Promotion" channel.
However, with some apps, the "Promotion" channel is already turned off, and now they're sending promotions under other channels ("General Notifications", "System Alerts"). Does anyone else think this is shady enough to report, and how would you go about reporting it?

Prosecutors told the judge no more charges are expected against the president's son.
Something is starting to smell really rotten about this proceeding. Apparently the judge is a Trump appointee who is now claiming without evidence that Hunter Biden's lawyers pretended to be opposition lawyers to get things that should be sealed placed under seal, and still refuses to seal those things.

By creating a full-employment economy, Biden enabled millions of low-wage workers to raise their pay.
According to a study by economists David Autor, Arindrajit Dube, and Annie McGrew, so many workers—predominantly young, with no more than high school educations, working overwhelmingly in low-wage service-sector jobs—quit those jobs in 2021 and 2022 for better-paying ones that this collective job switch actually reduced such indices of inequality as the gaps between college-educated and non-college workers, and that between the 90th income percentile and the 10th income percentile, by a full 25 percent.
