Yes, but to the original point, it's the value of that dollar that changes.
And isn't that what's changing with cryptocurrency, the value?
You can still have 1 whole bitcoin, but its value in dollars has changed.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Wondering what Microsoft has up its sleeve for Build 2022? Here are a few tidbits gleaned from the hundreds of sessions listed on its website, including a new Kubernetes-at-the-edge effort. I can't even spell Kubernetes, do I want to dev for it?

Google announced on Wednesday at its I/O 2022 convention that it plans to finally launch Matter, its new but delayed smart home industry standard later this year, and has explained how it will work in home ecosystems. And now you have 15 standards

While we are not investing in the Web Forms framework, we still need to ensure that Web Forms developers can successfully develop their apps in Visual Studio. "Technically, you're not alive. Except you're conscious, so we don't know what it means."

Flutter 3 completes our roadmap from a mobile-centric to a multiplatform framework, with the availability of macOS and Linux desktop app support, along with improvements to Firebase integration, new productivity and performance features, and support for Apple Silicon.

Microsoft is testing a new 'Suggested Actions' feature in Windows 11 Dev builds where the operating system suggests actions you can take with data you copy into the clipboard. Because some people miss Clippy?

This is just stupid, but then, I *am* an old fart. It's early here on the east coast. I'm answering emails and Office 365 has decided to start adding all of these suggested responses to click on. Thankfully, I found the method to disable this feature, but I'll bet the virus comes back.
I guess this is maybe the fact that MS is targeting all manner of devices. This might be useful for someone working on a tablet or phone.

A regular expression, or regex, is a string that enables a developer to express a pattern being searched for, making it a very common way to search text and to extract from the results key finds "Some people, when confronted with a problem, think 'I know, I'll use regular expressions.' Now they have two problems."

The world has been gifted the second photograph ever taken of a supermassive black hole — and this time, it’s a black hole that’s relatively close to home. Does this black hole make my galaxy look fat?

Hey,
I was watching the announcement early this morning. If anyone is looking for something unusual or mysterious there is only one thing that stands out. Shep Doeleman is saying that it's orientation is 'pointing directly at Earth'. I think he is referring to the Kerr metric[^].
Shep Doeleman[^]
Other than that, it's very similar to M87. Which is supposedly also oriented towards the Earth.

Wouldn't it kind of make sense that the first ones we'd be able to visualize would be "pointing directly" at us? If there were the accretion disc "in the way", we wouldn't be able to see them yet (until our telescopes get better). Maybe?

No,
It would be really anomalous for it to be pointing at Earth.
I personally doubt that it's pointing in our direction. I suspect the light is bent[^] making it appear that way. But you shouldn't listen to me, Shep Doeleman has worked with astrophysics for decades, listen to him.
