Makes you wonder how much of your behaviour and fears are driven by headlines instead of reality. Sure things go up and down with the economy, but they also went very up for a lot of people (ie: demographic of people on hackernews) during C

Flying got 50% cheaper after deregulation. Before that, it was definitely more of a upper middle class thing. Going to Europe for a couple weeks was definitely not common. https://blogs.loc.gov/law/2022/06/eco

Stop playing the victims on how the angry HN crowd has downvoted you. You’re being downvoted because it’s a bookstore that sells to the general public. Less than 1% of their customers would know how to pay with bitcoin, and even for those w

Yep. It’s very sad for the owner. And I empathize. But a lot of things they blame shopify for is actually the exact same across the ecommerce spectrum.
