It’s one of European civilization’s biggest issues; being far too concerned with doing things, before ever even considering whether those things should be done that way, or at all.

This is a bigger issue, especially with Apple, than people may realize. I use iOS “Slide to Type”, aka swipe typing, and have noticed over time that among several other glitchy bad UX issues, there a clear heavy hand on what can be typed th

Have you tried putting yourself in the perspective of the humans trying to find a job in a market that is turning over now and was already dystopian before AI was injected into a dystopian, hellish process of “putting on a tie and using a f

I’m just going to pile on by suggesting you really concern yourself with looking into why GDP is absolutely not a good measure. You may want to start with the fact that the economist that developed GDP has long been outspoken against how it

I agree, among the many things that need way better measurements, chief among them besides unemployment, being economic preference, is an alternative to the nonsensical GDP. But regarding unemployment, another absolutely bizarre fact of tha

This is a mistaken belief. Sure you get all those negative aspects to being degrees, just like you get them under all other conditions … Chinese, Russian, Israeli espionage over the last ~80 years, anyone?… but you cannot actually get diver

That must explain why I’ve seen bad reviews that have 5 stars. I guess the review itself really does not matter as much as long as the stupid starts are there. It also reminds me of one of the biggest apartment complex management companies,

I am leery of such a claim not just being attention bias, because although it surely is mostly AI gobbledygook, it all looks just like the marketing gobbledygook of pre-AI, ignoring any obvious AI tells. I think you may just be noticing slo

Yes, it will surely all end in calamity, whether anyone here experiences it themselves or not. Humans have a major (among many) flaw, in the nasty tendency to believe they not only have a sufficient understanding of sufficient enough things

I would say it’s simpler than that. Between Wall Street demanding “growth” and the executives’ stock options being tied to meeting those numbers, they always pull out any and all stops to push “growth”. As others have implied, with people l

That is not at all the same in Germany. German states do not have sovereign jurisdiction over their territory. It is a common illusion of Europeans about how America at least is supposed to work, even if things are rather penetrated current

I don’t know what it is with you reddit people. You’re like a proto-religion, a kind of cult or something yet unclassified but related. The simplest things are incomprehensible to you due to seemingly emotional states of mind, like that com

What typical Reddit ignorance that compares the avg life expectancy of the whole USA with a range of 68 years for tribal people to 85 years for “Asians”, a 17 year spread, to individual European countries. It has always baffled me a bit tha

I’m not sure why you would rationalize things so much. Yes, the biased Case-Shiller shows that the avg is only up 65% (think about that!!! 65%!!!) which is kept suppressed by the prices only increasing far slower in places where no one want

There are indeed many people that look very similar, and that will only increase if the efforts to eradicate uniqueness and actual separated diversity are successful, but there is also a lesson in the basic concept of, similar is not same.

The worst part is that it will equally affect all the responsible people when it blows up just like it is affecting them now when BNPL is just one more way in which demand is artificially created that drives up prices.

The irony is that it does not even really matter anymore at this stage, especially with mortgages. So you get a few points taken off because you have 800 vs 600 score, but it won’t really make a difference when both are on the same out of c

Technically it is largely already built in as an assumption that payments are made on time. You also don’t lend to a friend you will not be paid back by, will you? The credit score reduction is merely a diversion from norm, i.e., the expect
