This headline is from The Blaze: https://www.theblaze.com/news/some-new-yorkers-arent-happy-that-15-minimum-wage-has-increased-food-prices

The article basically explains that since the minimum wage was raised an extra $2 to $15 people aren't happy. Muh prices and all.


And then there is MarketWatch: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-15-minimum-wage-was-supposed-to-hurt-new-york-city-restaurants-but-both-revenue-and-employment-are-up-2019-10-28

" Opinion: The $15 minimum wage was supposed to hurt New York City restaurants — but both revenue and employment are up "

And the article is rather positive about this change:
" Some in the restaurant industry have argued that raising menu prices will lead to fewer people dining out and, consequentially, more restaurant closures.

But this hasn’t happened.

In fact, both restaurant revenue and employment are up. The reason for this is that restaurants don’t have to raise prices very much to pay for a minimum-wage increase."

I am inclined to believe MarketWatch to be honest.

lmao good luck singing in key with a pitch-shifter
whoever thought that mailing lists are a good UX for following discussions

So Nextcloud uses object storage absolutely horribly. If you want to stream a video off it, it has to fetch the entire the entire thing, which makes sense, but if you pause the video for even like 20 seconds, it ditches the file and has to fetch it all over again if you want to continue. Why can't it cache the file for some time?

ahead of the US election, twitter will:

> prevent “liked by” and “followed by” recommendations from people you don’t follow from showing up in your timeline and won’t send notifications for these Tweets
