It's impressive to me how much difference such a "small" cut would already make
How much processing power is required to run these kinds of algorithms?
I don't know how long it took him but I have worked with similar datasets (60 million wikipedia pages, multiples of that in links) and I would say that's the sort of thing that runs overnight on modern hardware. Maybe if he has a cluster or powerful server with Intel Xeons or AMD Threadrippers you can work almost normally with it - imagine drinking a coffee during runs. Hard to say.
The most obvious being the word "recession" meaning a downturn for economists but people use it synonymous with "high unemployment" instead.
No it's not saying that.
It's about household income. Zoomers & Boomers have in common that both are mostly 2 person households. With boomers (born between '46 and 64' being around 60-78 years old) having a lot of retirees or households with only one person working. Considering the low unemployment rate the Zoomers are working both or even count their parents income. In addition to that boomers have a nestegg as a cushion. Thus the difference between current Zoomers and current boomers is huuuge.
In a sense this graphic tells you little when comparing it this way. The more interesting thing - and what this graphic is actually made for - is looking at vertical lines. What were boomers like when they were as old as Zoomers are now?
if a 20 year old is making the same inflation adjusted dollar amount as a 50year old boomer
I think you haven't understood the chart
What scares me even more is when the community begins to deny the technical hurdle. I call this the "torrent effect" because the same thing happened to the torrenting community.
It is undeniably super easy to get into it, the community thinks it's easy, I think it's easy but the fact that normies don't use it is evidence enough that we failed somewhere. I don't know where but somewhere we did.
The same could happen to Nostr. It's too early to be pessimistic about the "torrent effect". But people already beginning to call it easy with little adoption outside the bubble.
