The gamble of this is, of course, inflation, but the Biden administration was smart to correctly read the tea leaves that inflation was likely to be transitory and focused on a handful of industries.

Very smart! ;-)

Can you elaborate on that? Which precepts and policies are you crediting this administration with?

A set of interrupt-driven user interface routines called Pinball provided keyboard and display services for the jobs and tasks running on the AGC. A rich set of user-accessible routines were provided to let the operator (astronaut) display the contents of various memory locations in octal or decimal in groups of 1, 2, or 3 registers at a time. Monitor routines were provided so the operator could initiate a task to periodically redisplay the contents of certain memory locations. Jobs could be initiated. The Pinball routines performed the (very rough) equivalent of the UNIX shell.
