Amazing, thanks Steve. I upvoted this comment to make sure people see it! Excited to get certainty on these (someday!?)

Re: Inflation/Deflation In Tokens

Andrew Badr — Mon, 12 Jun 2017 13:12:01 -0000

There's a reasonable argument that inflation in a cryptocurrency is necessary to incentivize miners and protect the network. But I don't think it works for preventing rapid price appreciation. Consider that the money supply of Bitcoin is still increasing 4% annually at this point in time, and in the past few years that figure has been much higher. The likelihood that the rate of runaway demand will coincidentally be negated by a predetermined inflation rate is very low, and there's no pure-crypto way to dynamically match the inflation rate to the price. Finally, consider that "rapid price appreciation" is perceived relative to some starting point, not in absolute terms--and that starting point will be reached quickly regardless of your inflation schedule.

Hi Rufous! I think you are right. I also wonder a lot about the lineation. I'm not aware of any other official source for the lyrics. It would be amazing to get something from Joanna on this...

Fred, do you think it's possible for a business to solve moderation-as-a-service in a scalable way?

Can you give an example of a query that would work after following this setup? I keep getting the error "Query fields must be a mapping (dict / OrderedDict) with field names as keys or a function which returns such a mapping."

Is your `build` directory in VCS, or do you run `gulp build --production` on the server?

Thanks, I like this a lot.

That would make sense in a way, but it's more grammatical as-is. "[The] twentieth floor balcony houses what is home to me." — that's almost a complete, sensible sentence. The proposed change would break it in two, with the first half clearly a fragment. Note that "houses" is a verb. I can't tell whether that first S in "houses" is vocalized or not on the recording. Unfortunately there are no bootlegs of this song to help clarify.

Yeah I hear that too. The "eveningtide" spelling is so rare, though—I think that's just how she is pronouncing eventide, given that it's written that way in the liner notes.

Like Netflix? Why not?

Well, I don't think they can. Broadcast TV, at least for entertainment, is not a good business anymore.

I'd bet that network shows would get significantly higher ratings if they didn't have ads.

I think it's actually bull. The lyrics sheet says "bull", and I don't hear a T-sound. I wonder if the line was inspired by The Last Unicorn (a JN favorite), where there is a very significant bull tearing down the coast.

It seems "AWS_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID" and "AWS_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY" should be without the S3 part. See https://django-storages.rea....

I think it's a way of opening the window-- throwing it open.
