Bad news, 60/40 isnt a diversification strategy the last few years. 1) positive correlation in equity and fixed income 2) US treasuries/dollars have not had a “flight to safety” bump when volatility/l or bad news happens recently 3) treasuring moving to “all” short term debt, short term rate cuts resulting in long term rate increases.
This used to be the case, but bonds have been positively correlated with stocks in recent years, so they have not been an effective hedge. Additionally, it seems possible/likely that we are headed into the long-predicted COVID stagflation, where growth is slow, so interest rates are low, but inflation remains high, which makes bonds unappealing.
CDs (and I-bonds) are very different instruments than bonds. If "bad things" happen and rates go down the CD will not appreciate in value like the bond will.
I don't think so. Trump just announced $2K stimulus checks, and he could do it again. Money printing will reduce the value of the dollar. You're probably better off buying real estate or gold. Though those are priced really high now too. Maybe just invest in yourself to gain knowledge and skills that will eventually pay off...
Maybe, but not Oracle. Oracle is friends with the regime: Larry Ellison's kid runs TikTok and has promised to use it to push more conservative content. They'll get bailed out.
I don't think this is head-of-line blocking. That is, it's not like a single slow request causes starvation of other requests. The IO thread for the connection is grabbing and dispatching data to workers as fast as it can. All the requests are uniform, so it's not like one request would be bigger/harder to handle for that thread.
> First, we checked the number of TCP connections using lsof -i TCP:2137 and found that only a single TCP connection was used regardless of in-flight count.
It's head-of-line blocking. When requests are serialized, the queue will grow as long as the time to service a request is longer than the interval between arriving requests. Queue growth is bad if sufficient capacity exists to service requests in parallel.
I guess I'd thought of head-of-line-blocking as the delay from a slow request stalling subsequent ones beyond the throughput limits of the system: i.e. a slow-to-parse request causes other cheap requests to wait.
IBM bought Redhat, Redhat hires the devs for GNOME and hosts its infrastructure.
IBM and Redhat where also the main founders of GNOME.
They don't need to legally own GNOME. When most of the people working on systemD and GNOME are IBM employees, IBM makes the decisions. And GNOME is an IBM company.
Paper manufacturing is not devoid of chemicals, it needs bleaching to be white and all the machines to put it in its final shape use mineral oils that find way into the final product. But maybe the quality of the tea itself dwarves the things you find in teabags.
Bleached paper is probably not a threat to testicles, but it's taking a toll on the environment they're living in. And it's for a frivolous reason: having snow white paper.
