Ukraine 🇺🇦: “Ukraine is not ready to join NATO” declared Joe Biden.

Biden said he had spoken at length with V. Zelensky on the matter and pledged that the US would continue to provide security and weapons to Ukraine, as it did to Israel, while the process unfolds.

“I think we have to chart a rational path so that Ukraine can qualify to be able to join NATO,” added Biden.

One thing a Sex Worker that deals in photos and art knows, is you have to protect your images.

I have been using this method storing a form of QR code on every image I produce for years now.

Steganography is the process by which binary code can be written into pixels over 95% of the surface area of any digital photo or artwork.

You can do this with your seed words.

If you share a stereographic image it can be tracked online, and new info can be written into the photo as it changes hands automatically. You can get an email from your account rep and lawyers from a service called IMATAG if you wish.

Stop being lazy and protect what is yours.

So wait, Zeus (the company) is taking the BTC and then using Square to push USD to the merchant? How can Zeus do this? I'm confused

-- Russian Oil. Banned! (fig.1)

Well, while Bloomberg is silent for the second week, Bruegel Sink Tank helps us figure out the offshore supply of domestic oil.

On the upper chart you can see weekly volumes leaving Russian ports. On the bottom, you can see monthly volumes of completed shipments.

Well, you do know that domestic oil has been banned everywhere, right? Well, here we are. It turns out that an average of 10-12 million barrels were delivered per month in 2021. And in May 2023... 20 million barrels.

Isn't that great? (с)

How's it going with the discounts?

Russian marine exports of various fuels increased in the first days of the month. And will increase even more by the end of the month, as Russian refineries, which, as they say, we do not have, spin the flywheel at full speed, after scheduled maintenance.

All in all, shipments of this good stuff are up 51,000 barrels a day for the first 10 days of the month. Compared to the average daily level of May. Note that the peak was in March. In February, the EU imposed a ban on fuel purchases from Moscow. Has anything changed for Moscow? No. Instead of the EU-27, the nomenclature of consumers was replaced by Other Europe, behind which Turkey is hiding. Africa and Asia have expanded mightily. South America has appeared. Naphtha shipments rose to 557k bpd, up 14% from May. Asia is happily taking it. --

Apple has to abide by their terms and services; they can't simply ban apps because users are posting their wallet addresses.

We may need to file a lawsuit, some people have won similar suits against Facebook in the past. We can't just let this happen.

Holy ignoring the Great Leap Forward, and the Cambodian killing fields, Batman!

One thing I find really bizarre about the argument that America is a dead letter state, because it's moral sins have condemned it, in terms of its foreign policy sins, is these people then gleefully suggest a Sino-Russo-led world order will replace America's dominant role in the world, as if these countries have clean hands.

Why isn't China appearing before this moral court, for committing genocide in Xianjiang? Or illegally claiming the entire South China Sea as it's sovereign waters, in direct violation of the rights to international waters and freedom of navigation under international law of Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines? Why is China's debt trap diplomacy, and it's bankrupting of states like Sri Lanka and Kazakhstan with its failing BRI not resulting in moral charges? Why is threatening to invade and conquer Taiwan (which has never been controlled by the Mainland since Mao's revolution), not a moral sin?

America is going to fail because it's committed moral sins? But China and Russia are going to succeed merely because they're alternatives? This is just not a coherent view of anything. It's really just unsophisticated anti-Americanism at the end of the day.

All programmers should sudy and learn the relational algebra and the Codd Normal Forms. They should also study the horror of SQL and pray that they never have to use it.

It fills me with incredulity that _anyone_ thought that data access should be achieved through text statements that are compiled and executed in a running system. How many data breaches have been based on that dumb mistake alone?

Data access within a running system should always and only be accomplished through an API.
