Based on the inspiring true story of Lilly Ledbetter, an ordinary Alabama tire factory supervisor who discovers she's being paid less than her male peers. Her fight for fair pay takes her to the Supreme Court and Congress, while powerful forces try to shut her down. Lilly refuses to accept the status quo and has the courage to fight for what is right.

This wasn't my article, but Gardiner's! Anyway, here's a nice guide if you've never done so but would like to emulate PSP on SteamOS :)

One of the tenets from a software-craft site I've been building. The idea is to keep state and dependencies as local as you can, and only promote something to a wider scope (module, shared, then global) once it's actually used widely enough to earn it. Most of the 'shared' code I've had to untangle started local and got hoisted up a tier too early.

Here is the full study: China's mercantilist squeeze on developing countries (pdf)

• The "China Squeeze" affects low- and middle-income countries through three major channels: intense competition in global export markets, rising Chinese import competition in their own domestic markets, and limited access to China’s own consumer market for low-skill-intensive exports from developing countries.
• The scale of the squeeze is historically unprecedented and may represent hundreds of billions of dollars in lost exports and forgone jobs in labor-intensive manufacturing in developing countries.
• Macro indicators on wages, productivity, and exchange rate policy suggest that distortions, especially an undervalued renminbi, may have played a role. Regardless of the cause, China’s dominance may be closing off the traditional manufacturing-led development path for low- and middle-income countries.

China’s resurgent trade surplus has revived concern in the United States and Europe, but consequences for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remain underappreciated.

This paper documents a “China Squeeze”: China’s compression of the industrialization space poorer economies need in labor-intensive manufacturing.

Using historical benchmarks and labor-endowment comparisons, we show that China, despite becoming richer and moving up the technology ladder, still commands a historically unusual share of global low-skilled manufacturing export markets. We estimate that this squeeze costs LMICs hundreds of billions of dollars in forgone exports.

It also operates through rising Chinese import competition in LMIC markets and China’s limited absorption of low-skilled imports from poorer countries. Macro evidence suggests that policy distortions, including exchange rate undervaluation, may have amplified the squeeze.

The central concern is developmental: China’s export strength may close off pathways to industrialization for poorer economies.

Trump suggested that Iran could also normalize relations with Israel by signing the Abraham Accords and said that “it would be an Honor to have them also be part of this unparalleled World Coalition.”

However, Baghaei threw cold water on Trump’s optimism, stressing Monday that “the focus of the negotiations is on ending the war on all fronts, including Lebanon,” and that this critical point is “one of the core elements of understanding in any agreement.”

What negotiators aren’t discussing at this time, according to both sides, is ending Iran’s nuclear development.

edit: yeah looking back, only slightly annoying.

Feel an absolute need to get involved in a war for nationalist reasons

During service expound upon your nationalist and xenophobic views

Take joy in the killing of your enemies

Leave war feeling betrayed by the government

Be involved in mercenary work

Return home and start networking with small business owners

Drift towards class-collaborationist political opinions

Run for political office

Hello self-hosters,

I have been building Journiv, a self-hosted, privacy-first journaling app for people who want to own their personal memories, journals, mood/activity tracking, photos, and related life data.

A few months ago I added Immich integration, which allows you to browse your Immich library from Journiv and attach photos/videos directly to journal entries. That integration was focused on connecting self-hosted photos and videos to the written story behind them.

I just added the next piece: People Tracking with optional Immich face sync.

The idea is simple:

Immich is great at preserving the photo/video itself. Journiv is meant to preserve the story around it. Now Journiv can also help track who was part of that memory.

With the new People feature, you can create and manage important people in your life family, friends, kids, parents, coworkers, etc. Attach them to journal entries. Later, you can filter your timeline by a person and see the memories you’ve captured with them over time.

If you also use Immich, Journiv can use Immich’s people/face data to make this easier.

When you attach an Immich photo to a Journiv entry, Journiv can check the Immich people/faces associated with that asset. If those Immich people are linked to people you track in Journiv, Journiv can automatically suggest or add them to the journal entry.

The goal is not just to store photos or journal text separately, but to connect them together into a more meaningful personal archive: what happened, when it happened, where it happened, and who was part of it.

Would love feedback from the self-hosted community on this feature.

I had forgotten that I took some photos on Friday. I was looking at my folder and there are a few snaps. This one is decent enough I reckon.
