A result of tariff forcing Bangladesh to import soybeans at much higher than market rate.

 

Under the last government Adani made a deal to supply power to Bangladesh in significantly higher than market price in what might be described as fiefdom payment to India. After fall of Sheikh Hasina, this arrangement was called into question and the fallout is still continuing.

Interesting read @surjomukhi wonder if EV will take off without adequate investment in REnergy and distribution networks though.

More info:

There is a lot in the two article linked above with sources that go even deeper. Nonetheless, data stored on azure was used to target and kill Palestinians while forcing NGO's to force over their data.

 

I saw that there was a tech demo (dead twitter link) showing the feature. Is it on the stable release yet?

De jure is what's good enough for me. I am not interested in vindicating ordinary Russians for something they couldn't even vote for.

Yeah, I wanted to avoid G7 or some regional websites since I would rather have one with a bit more global access.

That's very north america focused.

Mixture of bribe and getting scammed.

Aren't they now based in Estonia since when the company was established?

Interesting. Unfortunately, it seems to be mainly focused in EU and I am not interested in hosting and marketing a marketplace out of my own pocket at the moment.

What is weird is that engagement without paid boosting is now mostly decimated on twitter. And the part that is boosted gets mostly engaged by bots. The situation is frankly ridiculous and no competent organization or personnel should be giving anything but RSS one way update there.

 

FB Marketplace has some insane network effects with vast listings. I can find very few alternatives for regions outside areas like G7. Would appreciate some good alternatives in this space.

Maybe they can monetize API usage while keeping GUI usage free?

Companies are subject to the places they operate in and not following it could have consequences. I remember Guardian having to censor stuff due to UK court order. My gripe is that they are going diving into the military contract business that they had control over but still got into due to money.
