Still down -> https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/ecb-takes-down-secu...

According to a market participant "the T2S operator will attempt to failover to their recovery site".

Doesn't smell good...


Not by regulation, you need a specific “payment service provider” licence for that.


> As an aside, not sure if OP is related to them but updown.io is a nice service and I appreciate the simple PAYG pricing! For what it's worth their mails seem to get through successfully to me too.

Not related in any way except as an happy customer. They added a blog recently and this article caught my eye because of the nightmare that is mail delivery issue for everyone.

I found it particularly ironic that you now have to think like a spammer (i.e. look at spam detection engine source code to find a way to circumvent their heuristics) in order to get your totally valid email delivered (^_^).

Thank you


There is also in the Bible the notion of a 50 years periodic Jubilee[1] when all debts would be canceled and the system effectively resets.

Wouldn't that kinda make it difficult for anyone to get a mortgage during year 49?


Yeah, it would play havoc with durable-goods industries in the last few years of the cycle.


Oh no!


ha! It may be in the Bible, but Jubilee was never celebrated, not even once.


Whether or not it happened exactly as described within the Torah/Bible, we have plenty of records to indicate ancient societies regularly overturned debts.

... Unless you're making a joke that it happened but was not "celebrated" because most people didn't like it.


> Jubilee was never celebrated

Ancient societies of all stripes had periodic debt forgiveness. Ancient (pre-Christian) Rome, for example.


If only C# had a brother language that would expose a nice functional syntax while keeping full interop and the benefits on running on the CLR ;-)

Nice thought experiment though!


F# is gorgeous. For anyone dipping their toes into functional programming, the book Domain Modeling Made Functional by Scott Wlaschin [1] does a great job to get the basics of F# and, more importantly, how to use a functional, strongly-typed language to model a domain for business applications.

I see what you did there.

Came here to say something similar.

We use Matomo


Matamo is a great option. Beware that - depending on mode - a cookie notice is still required even if everything is first-party only.
