Didnt say so, did I? Hard work is necessary but not sufficient, thats my statement.

found this one interesting, as it has above-average performance (about 14% annualized) downside: low liquidity: can short after painting is sold which happens on average after 3-7 years. Nevertheless, seems like an interesting diversificati

Thats just being humble. Most successful people think its that way because they are special and worked hard. Wrong. Most people work hard, its the LUCK many underestimate. Being aware of this is healthy in so many ways, especially socially.

I only saw linux machines in SE companies so far (at least remote ones). Maybe, just maybe, it is because non-tech people 1) cant handle it as cli is needed from time to time 2) because personal preferences & habits make it almost impos

This could be a major ease on state budgets, also communal ones and allow to allocate resources where they are more urgently needed. Might require high initial costs for setup & staff education which would amortize over a few years for

Then just use lynx, who needs graphics anyways right? Also, you can switch tabs (ctrl (shift) tab) while loading. There is also an equivalent for pdfs, dont know what more would be required?

Thats me! thanks for the input. Yt really puts you in a bubble unfortunately. Would be cool if one could "explore" different branches of it...

Concluding from your previouw answer it is due to your choices, not possibilities. Financial education should be mandatory, to this day only academics seem to know the basic concept of wealth accumumation => need for investment to build

honestly, its just our fears stopping us. As a programmer you earn enough in 1-5 years to live like a god in parts of the world. To be happy one can also start farming and have a small garden somewhere on this planet, live a decent life and

In the end no one profits from this. Companies profit more from fit employees instead of overstressed ones.

Theres also the possibility to verify things, which is at least as much effort as to write it in the first place but then you know it wont kill anyone.

if they keep it a CLI only tool pirates wont be able to do anything but sailing towards the end destination where police would be waiting. Quite hard to unload containers on a moving ship too, I guess

we are getting closer to it, slowly but steadily. But it is still a substantial way to go. Putting all hopes into it is definitely the wrong decision.

Have you tried a vr headset? The sense of presence is powerful and might be the base of something big. Try before you judge.

China can also build anything they want where they want and sell power for state guided prices which is not possible in e.g. europe where people oppose. Also solar is much cheaper already which makes such investments uninteresting for power

Almost. Youre right & I agree - I meant the dev cost to guarantee spill freedom etc which causes billions in costs for development.

While it is bla bla it is necessary. How else would you establish political pressure in a democracy? Many green transition tech would be feasible if co2 taxes were established, even within the eu.

While I agree with you regarding the political dimension, the technical, especially regarding safety may not be underestimated regarding cost implications. But the right political setting could imply cheap, mass produced plants, e.g. SMR&#x

Thats too romantic - physical labour isnt funny when its repetetive and continuous, which most are. Also not using your head is frustrating / degenerative. What helps me most is keeping a balance, making mid day breaks for long runs o
