teagee commented on Tech employment now significantly worse than the 2008 or 2020 recessions   twitter.com/JosephPolitan... · Posted by u/enraged_camel

The chart in the tweet represents year-on-year growth. Based on these figures alone the actual number of people employed in tech is still really high, and the numbers can't just go up forever.

Also this only captures 6 industries, which is a narrow view of what would define "tech" these days.

Not to say that the job market isn't tough but this graph is a very narrow view

But you could already reuse templates in Django by including them. What am I missing?

Check out the HTMX example in the blog, this helped me better understand how it could be used

Any code or blog written by Adam is worth spending some time on.

It will be interesting to see how the tasks framework develops and expands. I am sad to see the great Django-Q2 lumped in with the awful Celery though.

Seaford, the city to which this would apply, was once regarded as "The Nylon Capital of the World"!

> Ten percent of respondents who reported having a 4.0 said they had cheated in an academic context while at Harvard.

Imagine how many cheated and didn't admit it! A very sad state of affairs...

teagee commented on Home Price to Income Ratio   longtermtrends.net/home-p... · Posted by u/hncurious

I think there's a pretty critical piece of analysis missing here: inflation. An alternative explanation might be that housing prices are being driven up by inflation, and wages haven't caught up yet. There are two ways to lower the home value/income ratio:

1. Decrease housing prices 2. Increase wages

We haven't seen meaningful wage increases for a long time now, so perhaps it is time. Maybe this is just a symptom of wages not tracking with inflation, and the solution is to pay people more.

Add our current low interest rates to the mix as well and the picture changes dramatically

This must result in a non-trivial amount of ink/toner used in the name of security
teagee commented on Postmates added $70M in revenue and saved $3M in network fees with Stripe   stripe.com/newsroom/stori... · Posted by u/mooreds

The largest chunk of savings (~85%!) is from Card Account Updater, which many payment processors offer. In some ways that says more about the B in the A/B test than it does about Stripe.
