静态网站悖论
个人网站的两种不同实现方式:一种是复杂的内容管理系统(CMS),另一种是简单的静态 HTML 文件。文章指出,尽管大多数普通用户倾向于使用复杂的解决方案(如 WordPress),但实际上,只有少数专业软件工程师能够选择更简单的静态网站。

前两天刚好听朋友说 square space 已经涨到了近乎搞笑的 $25 月费,做不用来盈利的个人博客实在难以 justify。这篇文章中吐槽得很在点子上:
normal users are stuck with a bunch of greedy clowns that make them pay for every little thing, all while wasting ungodly amounts of computational power to render what could have been a static website in 99% of cases.
普通用户被困在了一群屁大点功能都要收费的贪婪小丑手里,与此同时浪费着人神共愤额度的算力来渲染 99% 的情况下都可以作为静态的网站。
当然原文中说的“只有少数专业软件工程师才能选择更简单的静态网站”略微夸张并不认同,因为静态站至少是比 self-host 的动态 CMS 少太多维护了。我的 backlog 里也一直躺了篇安利新手用静态站并拉踩 WP 的文,不过网上这种文已经有无数了也还是拦不住前赴后继往各种 CMS 的坑里冲的新手,觉得写了又有什么意义呢就还搁着没写。(当然迟早会像以前反复造的无数轮子一样被废话欲战胜的 but not today)

Trump : $10bn American President
Trump on Thursday sued the US treasury department and Internal Revenue Service for $10bn over the disclosure of his tax returns to the media in 2019 and 2020.
In a complaint filed in Miami federal court, Trump, his adult sons, and his namesake company said the agencies failed to take “mandatory precautions” to prevent former IRS contractor Charles Littlejohn from leaking their tax returns to “leftist media outlets”, including the New York Times and ProPublica.
The plaintiffs said they suffered “significant and irreparable harm” to their reputations and financial interests, and may seek punitive damages because the leaks were either willful or resulted from gross negligence.
Thursday’s lawsuit puts Trump in the unusual position of suing government agencies that are part of the executive branch, which he leads.
The IRS is part of the treasury department. Neither agency immediately responded to requests for comment after business hours.
Scott Bessent, the treasury secretary and acting IRS commissioner, is not a defendant. Other plaintiffs include Donald Trump Jr, Eric Trump and the Trump Organization.
Trump has filed many lawsuits in his personal capacity, often for large sums and as a result of reporting by various media, since winning a second White House term in 2024.
He sued the New York Times and book publisher Penguin Random House for $15bn over articles and a book he said were intended to undermine his election prospects in 2024.
Trump is separately seeking $10bn from the Wall Street Journal over an article discussing a birthday greeting for Jeffrey Epstein, and $10bn from the BBC over its editing of a speech preceding the January 6 storming of the US Capitol.
In Thursday’s complaint, Trump and the other plaintiffs said the New York Times published at least eight articles, and ProPublica published at least 50 articles, based on Littlejohn’s disclosures.
The leaks “caused plaintiffs reputational and financial harm, public embarrassment, unfairly tarnished their business reputations, portrayed them in a false light and negatively affected President Trump, and the other plaintiffs’ public standing”, according to the complaint.
Prosecutors charged Littlejohn in September 2023 with leaking tax records of Trump and thousands of other wealthy Americans to the media, saying he was motivated by a political agenda.

🚀 U.S. Treasury Secretary Urges Congress to Pass CLARITY Act for Digital Asset Regulation
U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant has called on Congress to swiftly pass the CLARITY Act to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets. According to Foresight News, the global market value of digital assets has fluctuated between $2 trillion and $3 trillion over the past year, with approximately one-sixth of Americans holding some form of digital asset. The application of blockchain technology in payments, settlements, and physical asset exchanges continues to expand. Cryptocurrencies are no longer niche experiments but are widely adopted technologies globally. The United States must take proactive measures to continue leading in the establishment of rules in this field.

🚀 Deutsche Bank Strategists: U.S. Inflation Impact from Middle East Ceasefire Could Be Temporary
On April 13, Deutsche Bank strategists released a report indicating that the U.S. Treasury market will need to assess the impact of the Middle East conflict ceasefire on U.S. inflation. According to Jin10, if the ceasefire persists, the inflation surge is likely to be viewed as a temporary phenomenon. The strategists expect the Federal Reserve to resume interest rate cuts in September. They also highlighted the need to monitor the war's potential impact on Treasury issuance, as Congress might allocate additional funds for the military. Deutsche Bank strategists anticipate that any increase in issuance will remain moderate and primarily involve long-term financing, helping to avoid pressure on long-term yields.

Fed's Role in Bitcoin Reserve Plans
Discussions arise on the establishment of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve (BSR) if Trump decides to act quickly. The U.S. Treasury could use the Exchange Stabilization Fund to purchase Bitcoin via an executive order. Long-term stability requires congressional legislation to include Bitcoin in the Strategic Reserve Act. Both steps are Treasury-led, firmly placing the Federal Reserve outside of this decision-making process.
In another noteworthy development, blockchain project Trrue has secured a $10 million investment commitment from GEM Digital, despite GEM's background of fraudulent activity, raising concerns over transparency in reporting.
