Cool, this way you could have a private store for each user. I wonder if you could also use this for roles and federated signups somehow. Also maybe you can enable primitive sharing if you use wildcards on both sides.

Could you elaborate on the setup you used? I am in a similar boat and thinking about doing this.

This article describes a connection between wellness and self care and the extremist groups that we have seen pop up the last years.

I thought it was interesting to see how missing research for women is causing more people to see the mainstream as 'wrong' and looking for alternative truths.

I am not sure. If I understood correctly then you separate between price gauging and currency devaluation. But even in the most perfect currency devaluation, where every one in the supply chain would increase their price by exactly the rate of inflation. What would happen to everyones profits? They would also go up.

Price gouging is rising the price of a product above market price.

But what is the market price? If people are willing to pay for it then its the market price. So its adjusting the price to the current demand. There are times where this is unethical for example profiting from wars and disasters, but generally this is how things go.

Hey there,

The last year or so I keep hearing the term 'Greedflation' pop up more and more. The Idea here is that there are greedy capitalists that are raising the prices on goods and services faster than their own costs are increasing and this is causing prices to rise.

Now if I think about it inflation is always based on some price increasing, and sometimes because there is some shock that limits how mch of something is available. Oil is scarce because of some natural disasters or war, food is scarce because of drought, etc.

Most of the time there are other sources of the same resources (different crops), or the resource was horded before ('strategic' oil reserves), in both cases someone is able to charge more (eg Profit) from the situation.

So now it sound to me that normal inflation and greedflation are both simply based on one entity in the supply chain increasing the price to take advantage of the situation. Whether you call it greedflation or not depends on whether your personal "in" group is profiting from or or not.

Where is my thinking error here? Is greedflation a real thing?

 

We are a small shop and being asked for SOC2 compliance.

Is anyone here self hosting a significant part of their infra and compliant?

What challenges did you face doing it?

I keep thinking about a conversation I had with someone that you should replaced your shoes every few hundred kilometers, and based on the number they gave me I would have to buy new shoes every two months. I took this as a challenge to wear my shoes till the bittter end. In the last two and a half years I had to reglue some spots and by now the soles are worn through on most parts, so it is getting time. But why cant I repair and jeep using them for longer?

If it is a new washing machine there are breaks screwed into the back of the machine.

They are put there so the drum does not move during shipping from the factory to the customer, maybe they were also put in when you moved. If they remain in the washing machine motor is fighting against the break pads and the machine will shake violently. Please look at the manual or search on the internet how to take them out.
