Good. Reaffirms my trust in Vanguard's indices. People behind funds that chase trends cannot be truly genuine. They give rotten grifter vibes...

Since you probably already have this information, it would be interesting to have the "death date", with a link to the announcement or however you gathered the information.

I won't address the cost, but an important point to remember is for many countries energy security is national security, food security is national security.

It is important for them that they can't be held hostage to fossil fuel supplies.

It's been a big issue for western european countries during the ukraine war.

I’m getting a weird issue with scrolling on this page: https://hologram.page/docs/quick-start (iOS safari)

I seem to only be able to scroll once, then it freezes. Tapping the URL bar kinda resets it and lets me scroll again, but then it freezes again.

It looks like a static page so I’m not sure what would be causing that, but a total guess would be re-renders on the code blocks? Not sure if that makes sense though!

Tiktok is actually surprisingly national in how it serves its content. If you're outside the US you don't see most American accounts except the ones that go very viral.

Edit: I should clarify. This might mean most content you see is English, if you're interested in English content. However it matters where the video was geographically uploaded from. If you upload a tiktok video and check the stats you'll see most views are from your region or country.

Tiktok shows videos locally, then regionally and then finally worldwide if yoo have a big hit.

It would be interesting to know what fraction of the English content people see is posted geographically from within America.
