a "boom" is an overstatement. The camera industry overall is dying and struggling. We're down to something like 10% of camera sales from 2010. There is no boom. There is a transition from DSLR to mirrorless for the few existi

The end is definitely true but also - if you’re constantly getting rejected in a variety of scenarios(bars, online, social circles, different countries, etc)… then likely the only commonality there is you and you might want to figure out wh

Applaud her for at least admitting she’s doing most of this for attention and nothing else. It’s hard to get that kind of information out of many folks. It’s unfortunate that she has such parents who are the main cause of these habits. That

She also sounds a bit like a clout goblin from just what I've seen. Clout goblins are infamously known for - you'll be surprised to hear this - making shit up.

As long as you live in a system that incentivizes these actions - these things will always happen at a high rate. You have to dismantle the system before you can change individual actions on a societal level.

We live in a capitalist economy. Of course these outcomes would happen. It’s a fundamental part of the system. Consolidation of capital and fucking over people for profit is 101.

It’s almost like the economic system which all these companies are based in demands profit over improving the lives of people… Weird.

> SUVs have bigger tires, and thus better grip. Have you ever considered the reason they have bigger tires is because... they're bigger vehicles and therefore need bigger tires to have the same amount of grip as a smaller vehicle?

Europe doesn't have open borders... Even if they "left" their home country somehow - extradition treaties are a thing.

That's the fun part - your military makes it so they can't leave.

The state has this thing called the military. If it wants to - it’ll get you back and take your money by force. I figured people would understand that this is an option when people like Jack Ma go missing for a few months.

Is all the financial responsibility on your wife then or did you quit your job because you had ample savings/FIRE?

Yeah - it's a super weird take. Almost all the engineers I know get their jobs through random process. They use things like Hired, sending out resumes, responding to recruiters, rooftop slushie (no longer available), and then some actu

You need to be clear on outcomes though - as most people are talking about $10m+ exits for the founders. Bootstrapped to $100k ARR is nice but most people would still consider that a failure unless it takes little to no effort.

> You're very intelligent and driven. There is this common thread in all your posts - you want what you can't have. Well, to some extent you’re right. There are things I want that I can’t have. I’d love for capitalism to die, m

I don’t get this idea. When someone says they haven’t had sex - it usually isn’t indicating they only want unattached sex. It usually is shorthand for saying, “I haven’t had sex and I’d like to experience that with someone I have an emotion

Sounds like survivorship bias to me. Seen plenty of people drop out of things and never make a return to some magical FAANG or whatever employment/founding/etc after. Those folks don't make the headlines though and you don&#x

Boomer-esque speak. You're out of touch if you think that architecture is what anyone cares about these days. It's about getting PMF and first to ship. Everything else is not even secondary but completely forgotten. If you can man

Places like Finland deal with this effectively. This is just automobile propaganda. https://youtu.be/Uhx-26GfCBU

This is such tired, trite, and inaccurate take on the dating market. Talk to more young men. If you think 60% of young men are nasty/abusive/unintelligent/ugly to the point of not deserving any partners - you're clearly

Shock. Another article written about online dating by a woman that doesn’t reflect how it works for men at all.

Consider the ratios. “Groups of women” doesn’t mean anything if there are “hordes of men”. Come to nyc or sf or any major city. It’s overwhelming how many single men show up to any event. Often more men but especially more single men than s

Most incel opinions I've met are from men who are well educated, financially successful, socially fluent, dress decently, and exercise. The reason they have incel opinions is because they've done everything society told them that

Because calling someone good looking is considered shallow and we deem shallowness a bad trait to exhibit. No one is going to say - “well the only reason I really got interested in my partner was because they were good looking”. They’ll try
