if a business pays a utility bill with cash then it will credit its cash account (decreasing it) and debit its utilities expense account (increasing it)

if a business has sales revenue then it will debit its cash account (increasing it) and credit its sales revenue account (increasing it)

so credit and debit have opposite meanings depending on the type of account

Latest news from my bumfucknowhere rural town in Poland

> we have absolutely no public transport whatsoever
> so everyone has to drive a car everywhere, for everything
> that means having to drive to get to work, always
> that means places with lots of workers like the hospital, need a lot of parking spaces
> they obviously don't have enough
> so workers of those places park everywhere around, flooding parking spaces of the neighborhood disproportionately
> local residents complain because they don't have anywhere to park their cars that they also need to use to get to everywhere

who needs public transport anyways, that's socialism when a bus

with how things are going in regards to public transport in rural Poland, i can bet whatever you want that EVEN if money for a public transport is obtained and/or secured, it's going to be the most nonsensical and pointless schedule of buses imaginable, making it completely useless to everyone.

Add being unreasonably priced on top of that, and you just cooked a public transport network that serves nobody

So ofc local politicians will claim people are ungrateful and can't appreciate the thing they wanted so much. Project will be scrapped and every time it's brought up again to the council it will be dead on arrival because "look, we tried - people like cars" :3

DAO is all like "but we're decentralized, you can't do that" and the US District Court for the Northern District of California is like “I heard you say you're a general partnership?"

Experimenting with a design idea for a low-stimuli chat client, specifically the visualization of unread messages and notifications (I cannot sufficiently express my burning hatred for anxiety-inducing bright-red-background notification counts)

My favorite thing about windows is that if something doesn't work you just can't fix it because it'll say something like "Sorry! Failed to create hotspot! No, we will not give you any additional information!" and like thanks that's so helpful for troubleshooting

nix understanders of the world! it seems i have encountered a usecase where nix should shine! however, in my attempts to make it work, i have encountered but pain and despair.

please prove me wrong and show me that compiling waybar and all its dependencies with -fsanitize=thread is but a simple nix oneliner.

not to be a far left radical but the concept of jail is one of the most fucked up things that anyone has ever come up with
