Two More Weeks(TM)
- GolfPopper 4mo agoI've noticed that "18 months" is a very popular prediction target, across a wide variety of prognosticators. Close enough to seem urgent, and if what they predict comes to pass anytime in the next few years, they can claim "See, I was right, just a little off on the timing because <excuse>". If it doesn't happen, most everyone will have forgotten their prediction. And in the unlikely event they get called out, they have over a year of random events to find a plausible fall guy for their failure.
- stemlord 4mo agoThat really pissed me off. Why do people continute to pretend they can predict the future
- recursive 4mo agoIt's a valuable skill.
- bregma 4mo agoGet used to it: I think we're going to be pretending to predict the future for many years to come.
- paulhebert 4mo agoI think we’ll stop predicting the future soon. By the end of this year or next, the year after at the very latest.
