Moreover, Trump introduced major tariff exceptions for some countries. For example, the integrated North American auto industry would have been devastated if he hadn’t decided on 6 March to exempt goods from Mexico and Canada from the 25% levy that had gone into effect two days earlier. Goods from these countries now face no penalty if they are imported under the US-Mexico-Canada agreement.

This softening was predictable. US business would have suffered enormously if Trump had fully implemented the tariffs he had announced, let alone threatened, so it was never likely that he would persist with the worst of them. Trump regularly stakes out extreme negotiating positions, only to back down when the heat is on, even if he hasn’t gotten what he demanded from the other side. In fact, investors’ assumption that “Trump always chickens out” – known as Taco – has become a taunt. But when a madman threatens Armageddon, it is foolhardy to goad him into following through. The tariffs Trump has implemented are still very high.

Why haven’t Trump’s tariffs crashed the US economy?

there was an update 2 days ago and now there’s an (appearance) option to “show all actions in current circle”

launcher became too unstable for me though. i’ll wait for the next update to work on it

a multilingual can write what you wrote. Monolinguals are shaped by the limits of one language (and mostly a poor utilitarian corner of that language.) They can’t think of something with which they have no words for or don’t even feel like they’re missing words for something they need to communicate

one of its “powers” is that it doesn’t belong to a certain nation (consider académie française for contrast)

it’s not even the “native” language of the country that made it globish. There are native speakers in different countries and none of these variations invalidate others.

consider Indian English, consider Tok Pisin! 🤯

I grew up knowing the most popular language, why would I learn some backwater dump of a language like french only spoken by like 3.8% of humans unless I’m going to go live there or in one of the places they fucked over? Mandarin I could get, same with Spanish just due to total surface area and the best Venn diagram result. But there are so many little languages in the world and humans have finite time to live.

because, if nothing else, it would make your English better

Middle English borrowed vocabulary extensively from French dialects, which are the source of approximately 28 per cent of Modern English words, and from Latin, which is the source of an additional 28 per cent.

when you learn more about a language that influenced “your language”, those borrowed words open up and gain more meaning. You master their intricacies and start using them with more tact

thanks for taking the time to write a thoughtful comment.

Can you elaborate on “English is really afraid of hiatus and will do anything to avoid it"? I can’t understand what you mean by this and i’m very curious. Sounds interesting.

The sheer amount of vowel phonemes
French and German do “a lot of vowels” properly

i wouldn’t consider french vowels to be properly done with regional differences and nasal complications in addition to using 3 vowels to pronounce 1 with mute consonants here and there. What a mess. But i’ve met people who can see precision in that madness 🤷

what does your other head think about this?

The credited inventor of the Phillips screw was John P. Thompson who, in 1932, patented (#1,908,080) a recessed cruciform screw and in 1933, a screwdriver for it.

Biography
After failing to interest manufacturers, Thompson sold his self-centering design to Phillips in 1935. Phillips formed the Phillips Screw Company in 1934. After refining the design (U.S. Patent #2,046,343, U.S. Patents #2,046,837 to 2,046,840) for the American Screw Company of Providence, Rhode Island, Phillips succeeded in bringing the design to industrial manufacturing and promoting its rapid adoption as a machine screw standard. American Screw then spent $500,000 originating a method of manufacture. One of the first customers was General Motors, who used the innovative design in 1936 for its Cadillac assembly-lines. By 1940, 85% of U.S. screw manufacturers had a license for the design.

Due to failing health, Phillips retired in 1945. He lost his patent in 1949. He died on 13 Apr 1958 at age 68 in Portland, Oregon.

Yep, matter of fact let’s make pig Latin the global language, as it is not dumb at all, not even a bit.

a cat is a cat in english.

i’m not saying that everybody should speak English in a Babylonian world. It’s just that it’s practical to have it as one of your languages.
