Starvation was highly scaleable tactic the Nazis used. Just pile people up and let them starve and also freeze to death (another scaleable tactic). Food shortages could cause this but it would also cause riots/conflict before anything.

C’mon, he can sit on the Black Sea and pummel Odessa into the ground like Mariupol (Maybe that’s the warning?). No No-fly zones means he doesn’t even have to risk a ground invasion. Just do it the old fashioned American way of bombing off c

You ever try to buy a house? The loan you get means jackshit to the lender. Your loan is going to get bucketed and sold off into large funds. Those funds in the aggregate hold value. No one really cares if you, who you are, your house, etc,

His comments on inflation are interesting. Elon is not right about everything, but he usually gets the big picture right. Without side tracking the discussion too much, how is everyone so sure the rise in inflation is what it is? Wouldn’t

There’s also strong shades of non-conformity and anti authoritarianism in it. Who is this GF? His mom? Who is she gossiping to (Reddit), the nosy neighbor? Her annoying friends? He should really stop digging that tunnel giiiirl Fuck you I

The “direct” payoff is an abstraction. Follow the code. It’s so you get money to pay for food, shelter and piece of mind, possibly status. Somewhere further up Mazlow’s hierarchy is enjoyment. Regardless, I consider anyone operating in huma

Dude, you have to understand you work 8 hours a day. It’s just as absurd. Dig the fucking tunnel.

Matrix or XMPP server. There’s plenty of clientside JS apis. I’m sure Firebase can do it too. There’s a ton of options, you won’t go wrong.

The browser doesn’t even have modern JS. Well, I mean it does, but for awhile it didn’t. We consider modern history to be anything past 1815. So in web terms, if you had to section it, modern web history is like maybe 2010 onwards? In those

In a sense, most of the so called bubbles occurring right now are due to a lack of tech and innovation. The issue isn’t that Home prices are inflated, the issue is our most innovative solution for home ownership is credit hand outs. The Fin

You should choose based on how many months your wife can support you if you decide your choice did not work out. No upside job is always stupid, so contemplate the one with upside but have a frank discussion with your wife on what the risks

There is enough vacant housing in China to house Spain. Prices are going to drop, probably. It’s better to look at this from China’s vantage point. Truly, enough housing to house Spain is not enough. Perhaps for Spain it is, but we’re tal

Except that thesis is just wrong when your mother uses Facebook, Google, Amazon, Apple, Uber, and the kids pay for Netflix (oh shit, your mother too), and their bosses buy SaaS apps for the team. Yeah, it’s not a place to “park” money. That

Everyone’s just bored. It’s intellectual flirting. Except there’s no fucking, but maybe a few good ideas cum out of it.

Naive question, but aren’t we talking about installing an electrical outlet essentially? Some of these options look like they plug into a wall: https://www.amazon.com/MUSTART-Portable-Charger-Electric-Cha... Bare minimum th

The main problem with Twitter blogs is that it’s like the scariest infinite-scroll. On a regular blog post you can get a sense of how long it is and just about where someone should be hammering home a point. But one tweet after the other fe

If you remember when book stores were still around, you would have noticed that the self-help section was one of the largest sections in the store (compared to say, Philosophy, which arguably has much deeper ideas on the human condition). Y

Let me shock you by saying in some of these cities groups of people easily take out a 2500-3k rental. Either families or groups of workers.

Enumerate the STEM jobs that won’t create a life for you. Go. To. Medical. School. Stop thinking a Bachelors in STEM is enough. It’s a not a bet. The literally moronic other majors half of you pick is a bet. I’ve seen all of your resumes an

A VPS is $5 bucks. I described $5 like an investment. If $5 is as my investment into my future, what was the price of my food? Not exactly Doordash or Extra Value Meals at McDonald’s every night. Inference.

I would urge you to reconsider the group you are talking to. Many many tech people come from immigrants families that were not born into any kind of wealth at all.

Your guess is wrong then. I’m more of a person that has been at the upside and downside of things. I know what it’s like to just need the paycheck. But I never looked at it like that, it was mostly a paycheck to create the opportunity via s
