"So anyone involved in those activities using the peg is getting 55 instead of 105. If an exporter sells coffee abroad, and brings back $1, they are getting half as many birr that trickle back to pay farmers, transportation etc. In other words, it's like there's a 50% tax on exports. ..."

Here's a cool project from @mooler_z and @Naod_Td
The project is a browser based OS with a music player, a file explorer, a figma style editor that supports templates and exports to HTML/CSS/JS. It also has a MacOS style UI.
It uses tailwind for styling and here's a twist it is built withAngular , turns out it's not dead after all.
Looks like we have a local version of the PuterOS project.

The public docker image on Docker Hub lifestyle is very good.
You just build your docker image, version it properly and push it off to Docker Hub. Then you can deploy any version of of your app, on most hosting providers with just a couple of clicks, since nearly all of them support loading images from the Docker Hub.
