Except I think very few people are impressed. I definitely have a vague negative association with people who wear watches. It's just some expensive show off fashion accessory that you have to lie about getting utility out of.

> Stocks generally perform better than cash in inflationary environments I would challenge you to prove this statement with data. The S&P got crushed in both the 40s and the 70s. I mean setting the bar at returning better than -4% is

My goal as a someone who works isn't to reduce inflation. It's to maximize my salary. This fact has zero weighting in my actions.

Not at all ridiculous. Growing companies do this all the time. And exactly as the other poster said your experience that the company is disorganized doesn't preclude this possibility in any way.

no. this is ridiculous. you've demonstrated a total lack of understanding of how a bank manages its balance sheet. Banks are awash in reserves and in the basel3 regime these reserves fulfill a similar role to cash in fulfilling bank ba

Does this stereotype of the front end dev who is more of a visual person and can't use a terminal even exist any more? If they do exist I've never encountered one in my 10 years as a dev. Most front end devs I've interacted w

I can absolutely see why people would be lonelier now than in the past but I also wonder what the baseline is for this data. I also wouldn't be surprised if 30% was a normal number historically.

I listen to a lot of high brow and low brow humor. I probably hear 20 fart and dick jokes in a given week. I'm not against or above it. That has nothing to do with infantilization in our culture. The fact that they also had fart and di

Right. A thing that only has upside (options, let's forget about extreme tax situations for now) can't have negative EV on it's own. The implication is that it's negative EV when factoring the opportunity cost.

Last year was an insanely good market for auto producers. Cars are so sold out in general that you are looking at 6-10 month waiting lists for most in demand models amongst most manufacturers. And data already suggests this is on the declin

I'd have to imagine that taking equity as an employee is in most cases a negative EV move. Keep in mind, people win powerball. That fact that something is negative EV doesn't mean there aren't winners. FAANG RSUs might potent

This is the key part. It's a wiggle word. It's totally subjective. Any person can call any thing "abusive". So giving this concession 100% nullifies free speech. This is why the first amendment doesn't include thing
