26% increase in Rent REDUCTIONS.
Landlords CAN'T charge what they like. The market always, always decides. No exceptions.
The market doesn't care what your costs are. The market doesn't have feelings.
Left alone (which it isn't) the market is always the least bad option.

The average advertised rent of homes outside London were reported to have flatlined for the first time since 2017 in Q1, at £1,370 per calendar month, according to @rightmove This however was at a time when rates were forecast to fall and Ali Khamenei was still alive, so renters were considering getting a step up onto the ladder. London however was less fortunate as affordability, though improved, remained a stretch and landlords here continue to abort their sub 5% yields, causing average advertised rents in London to rise by 0.7% to £2,736pcm. Demand, overall, continued to weaken but remained up on pre-covid levels while supply increased 3% on last year's numbers. This resulted in a 26% increase in price reductions suggesting the gravy train in certain regions has slowed.

Hacking the #EU #AgeVerification app in under 2 minutes.
During setup, the app asks you to create a PIN. After entry, the app *encrypts* it and saves it in the shared_prefs directory.
1. It shouldn't be encrypted at all - that's a really poor design.
2. It's not cryptographically tied to the vault which contains the identity data.
So, an attacker can simply remove the PinEnc/PinIV values from the shared_prefs file and restart the app.
After choosing a different PIN, the app presents credentials created under the old profile and let's the attacker present them as valid.
Other issues:
1. Rate limiting is an incrementing number in the same config file. Just reset it to 0 and keep trying.
2. "UseBiometricAuth" is a boolean, also in the same file. Set it to false and it just skips that step.
Seriously @vonderleyen - this product will be the catalyst for an enormous breach at some point. It's just a matter of time.

.@vonderleyen "The European #AgeVerification app is technically ready. It respects the highest privacy standards in the world. It's open-source, so anyone can check the code..." I did. It didn't take long to find what looks like a serious #privacy issue. The app goes to great lengths to protect the AV data AFTER collection (is_over_18: true is AES-GCM'd); it does so pretty well. But, the source image used to collect that data is written to disk without encryption and not deleted correctly. For NFC biometric data: It pulls DG2 and writes a lossless PNG to the filesystem. It's only deleted on success. If it fails for any reason (user clicks back, scan fails & retries, app crashes etc), the full biometric image remains on the device in cache. This is protected with CE keys at the Android level, but the app makes no attempt to encrypt/protect them. For selfie pictures: Different scenario. These images are written to external storage in lossless PNG format, but they're never deleted. Not a cache... long-term storage. These are protected with DE keys at the Android level, but again, the app makes no attempt to encrypt/protect them. This is akin to taking a picture of your passport/government ID using the camera app and keeping it just in case. You can encrypt data taken from it until you're blue in the face... leaving the original image on disk is crazy & unnecessary. From a #GDPR standpoint: Biometric data collected is special category data. If there's no lawful basis to retain it after processing, that's potentially a material breach. youtube.com/watch?v=4VRRri…

@EU_Eurostat Are you sure? Cause gas is 50% more expensive. Rents are almost 10% higher. And the supermarket bill does not feel like 10% lower to counteract the other prices rising.
So... are you sure?

Imobiliario rende uns pontos percentuais, equity gera riqueza as vezes de valor e com uma margem líquida de ~25%
Um gera a riqueza, o outro pode ajudar a preservar
Português
O ponto não é que o 1% ficou rico só com equity passiva. É que a riqueza profunda passa obrigatoriamente por participações em empresas. Seja como fundador, seja como investidor de longo prazo...
O meu ponto não é que imobiliário é inútil. É que como estratégia principal de criação de riqueza, equity ganha estruturalmente... e a maioria dos portugueses nem sequer considera a alternativa.
Português
Imobiliário é coisa de pobre... pobres de mentalidade e de carteira! Obviamente os tugas adoram imobiliário... caso contrário não seríamos tugas eheh

The UK just issued £15 billion of debt in a single day.
The largest gilt issuance in British history.
At the highest yield in nearly twenty years.
That yield is not a number.
It is the bond market's verdict on Britain.
It is saying we will lend to you but we want more return because we do not trust where this ends.
The 30 year gilt is now at 5.49%.
The government will be paying that rate for thirty years.
On debt it is taking on today to pay interest on debt it took on yesterday.
That is not a fiscal strategy.
That is a country that has run out of road.
And is borrowing to pretend otherwise.
The bond market always knows first.
It knew in 2022 before Truss resigned.
It knows now, and so does Bitcoin...
