Do the brits wanna talk about how they came up with a “yard” as a measurement?
Incredible movie everyone should see. Heavily based on stories from the real Szpilman, who died just before the movie released I think, but helped them with it I’m pretty sure. Shows the true realities that Jews went through in Poland.
A damn shame the movie was made by a giant piece of shit.
Why is there splooge on ‘died’?
Boomer ass joke

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the last new (to you) band you got really into?
3·18 days agoCastle Rat: Medieval Fantasy Heavy Metal. I would say more Rock than metal, and kind of an 80s feel.
They are incredible. Great music, fun lyrics, presence and themes to their shows.
Also shout out to MIRE and their new album. Heavy metal.

Perfectly valid to feel that way. None of these numbers would ever explain away everything. People are suffering. Things are harder for most. Quantifying it is complicated.
Of course. The good ol pastime of “doing racing.”
Obligatory:
Toto, it’s called a motor race, okay? We went car racing.
When, uhhh, when WAS the US economy good for most? Has to be pre-pandemic at minimum.
I wish you the best of luck finding something that works well for you. You got this.
A quick proxy could be overall wage increases for the year. I’m sure average wages for new jobs may be findable somewhere, but BLS recently released this:
Compensation costs for civilian workers increased 3.4 percent, not seasonally adjusted, for the 12- month period ending in December 2025. Wages and salaries increased 3.3 percent and benefit costs increased 3.4 percent over the year.

From BLS report USDL-26-0184 on Feb 10, 2026.
Yes. She would have not been directly involved in the production, amd she was fairly new to the position anyway in the grand scope of the methodology and procedures behind this type of report (she was about a year and a half in), and statistical agencies and the civil servants who work there take methodology VERY seriously (I know, I’ve worked with these kinds of agencies) and they’d have a LOT of reviews and checks in place for something this high profile to ensure it’s as accurate as it can be.
If anything it was more a slap in the face of the non-political government workers who geek out on statistical methodology and just want to produce the most accurate stats they can.

Side note, I know nothing about rent control though.
