¿Creía usted que el colón a 8 pesos colombianos era una devaluación espantosa? Pues el real iraní está mucho, mucho peor, al corte son unos 2200 reales por colón. O un millón de reales por dólar. #IRR -

Pretty neat slides on how the #Internet works down to the #networking core by Ben Cartwright-Cox, the founder of bgp.tools:

Worth reading through by everyone who is somewhat tech-savvy and at least knows the terms #BGP, #ASN, #IRR or #peering

I've put together some insights on the #math of the Internal Rate of Return algorithm (#IRR, or #XIRR). If you're interested in how the algorithm works, including how it calculates net present value, iterates for convergence, and avoids complex numbers, you might find it useful. There's also some basic #Rust and #JavaScript code.
You can find it here: https://weitzel.dev/post/calculating-internal-interest-rate

Racists, apartheid apologists not welcome among liberals
https://dailyfriend.co.za/2023/02/10/racists-apartheid-apologists-not-welcome-among-liberals/(Today's column, with many comments answered. As if to prove my point, the most upvoted comment is by an apartheid apologist.)

South Africa’s legal system is one of only a handful around the world that treats legal subjects differently based on their perceived race or skin-colour.
Race Law is a public-interest initiative by the South African Institute of Race Relations (IRR) to index all the statutes, regulations, policies, and superior court judgments that perpetuate racialism as a matter of law. It does so through the Index of Race Law.
