"This week, we talk industrial policy. Economist and author Steve Keen joins me to shine light on the present moment by exploring the historical use of tariffs and industrial policy in the development of industrial powers from Britain to China. In his usual style, Keen aims to dismantle the myths of free-market economics, explaining how virtually every successful industrial nation began with protectionist policies. With the US now engaged in a trade war with Canada and other nations under Trump's renewed tariffs, we examine whether such measures can effectively rebuild American industry without the comprehensive industrial policies that powered China's meteoric rise. Hint: Keen believes this simplistic tariff solutions may create more chaos than revival for America's industrial base."

The ECB have remotely bricked gnome-calculator.
In the latest episode of "Why the 21st Century is impossibly stupid", GNOME calculator contacts the ECB on startup to get currency rates. It just hangs on startup otherwise, the whole calculator not just the currency stuff. The ECB has blocked GNOME calculator (I guess because it was getting trashed by all the connections).
To fix this, you can do "dconf write /org/gnome/calculator/refresh-interval 0", whatever tf dconf is, because when I tried it told me dbus-launch is missing, wtf that is, because it doesn't have a package. Turns out it's in "dbus-x11". I dunno why X11, because I use wayland, but I'm past caring at this point. I installed it and it worked.
Now I can calculate how much postage I need to pay for this parcel.
A bloody OS-shipped desktop calculator, DDoSing a central bank, and blocking on connection failure.
which CLEARLY describes that this is a regression in the used HTTP library and not gnome-calculator and it does NOT download the rates on every start. But you do your way fishing for cheap cheers, because it's GNOME, right, and everyone know they only do BS /s

Does the UK have an industrial strategy?
Its often asserted that successive Govts have not been helpful to business or stood in the way of economic development; taken as proof that the UK lacks an industrial strategy.
But, look at this & previous Govt.s attitude to financial services (bowing to its lobbying for either lighter regulation or preferential tax treatment) & what you see is the UK's successful industrial strategy.
The problem is its focussed on financial services!
