in the coming economy, i fear both DevWorker's and HandyWorker' both end up on OF or failed tiktok influecners
30s are actually pretty great, and a great decade to raise kids because you have energy and arent super old, keep stacking and enjoy the time because, the cliche is true that it blazes by
i resonate with this, luckily i always valued spending time with the family and kids as soon as they were born, zero regrets.
20s for me were not super great in terms of career building, but man i traveled so much and had so many adventures, my passwort was full of stamps. once i had kids the travel stopped basically and my friends are in different countries now, but im super glad i got to do what i did, when i did. i would like to pick it up again when the kids are a bit older
Pretty scary, i suppose. My dad has cirrhosis of the liver, lifestyle-related, but i suppose statistically, the higher the decade, the more likely it is for people to start dropping , stlill a shock tho
i havnt watched it , but how pissed was he? all the comments making it seem like he went nuts?
i had a chuckle when you wrote - If you're losing 10m a year, you shouldn't buy back shares... you should EXIT! Close down shop, return the money to owners, and let those owners find better things to do with the money.
I agree, but a lot of the business owners would never close down until the whole operation was in the ground because to close a business means to admit defeat; there's a lot of ego involved. plus we live in the magical world of fiat where banks can destroy the economy and get a bailout and bonus too
i would say, while not the cyperpunk dream, an option for a merchat to accept btc is better than not having that option
Trump is like a constant uncertainty generation machine, though, scaring the shit out of markets , one tweet at a time
i mean sure, but honestly, Europe is so hopelessly inefficient that i dont even think they'll do a good job.
i wonder what kind of stress levels Jerome Powell is under, like when he comes home from work and his wife asks him how his day was, and he's just like, the president has been blasting me on twitter again and i might be put on trial for refusing to change the interest rate.
for the average person that already banks in the Eu in euros, in a traditional way using SEPA etc, i really dont see how a digital euro adds any value
i can see how a government would like it to do enhanced spying and all sorts of other things, but other than that ,nothing
even without AI we;ve stopped breeding, which is why the birth replacement rates are fucked almost everywhere lol
The elite future sex robots will just speed it up
oh i can see why we are drawn to the genre, same as how true crime is very popular.
When you say you don't foresee a dystopia, i would push back and say that there are many countires that are currently living in one, just not a sci fi one (NK example), most of human history has been brutal and even in first world countries, many people live in situations that they would probably call dystopian, probably why people keep coming back to dream of socialism.
that aside, this post was just about which hypothetical dystopias seem the most credable
what 8 wars has he stopped?
