Agreed. I have owned turbo cars and have added turbo's to cars that didn't come with them. They reduce reliability and greatly increase complexity. A bonus is higher cylinder pressure and more heat. Changes to EGT's can effec

AKA working age people that will have to choose eventually between getting the vaccine and losing their job. A pretty rough choice for those hesitant. (I am vaccinated please don't post hot takes about how I am a anti-vaxer.)

It is the solution, just the consumers don't have the guts to go through with not buying. The average buyer now seems to have little self control. The companies as you pointed out take advantage of it and work together to screw everyon

The solution is to vote with your wallet. These days consumers are pretty weak willed though and are willing to put up with almost any level of abuse for their shiny new toy. Look at what consumers are willing to (overpay) for during the pa

Not so great if you are jobless and got bills to pay. “Create more innovation” is a good thing, but sometimes people need to cash those big tech giant’s checks to care for their family. Experienced engineers and college noobs should not be

I always hear this but never seen proof. If they are bad how do they get into a position that lets them make hiring decisions? Everyone likes to think they are the good candidate and not the bad one that slipped through…

Check the rent for the places that SF'ers fled to. Your rent went down because a bunch of affluent people left and opened up a bunch of units.

100% agree. It sure is funny how these accounts are always surfaced as the first reply. Especially with that BrooklynDad account. It was always the first hot take reply to any Trump tweet. Of course BitwiseFool and I have no proof beyond ou

It's interesting how many people replied to this rushing to defend algorithmic hazing. Sure this is sort of a "then the whole class started clapping" type post, but there is some merit buried in here. Somebody with 20 years e

Considering how "judgey" bay area tech is I would never make such a move. Any sign of not being a steadfast workaholic is a "red flag."

Yes we should totally take google at their word when they say it's not politically motivated. They can say whatever reasoning they want, that does not necessarily make it true. Google has a well defined history of lying publicly or hid

Can only speculate based on the various complaints the party had about all the downvotes the WH channel gets. Do you think anybody below the VP level of YouTube would be told? Guess what, no google employee talked about PRISM either.

I am alluding to the current party in the White House that gets every video downvoted into oblivion. Some sites accused YouTube of deleting the downvotes. Now they are giving up and just hiding them now.

Odd that a certain political party got a large amount of downvotes on all their videos and YouTube removes the publics ability to see them soon after.

I don't think the folks that make the CPI are part of some vast conspiracy. I just question their methods. Like all numbers from the government, politics are involved. You can believe they are (slightly) wrong and not be a "conspi

I admire the thoroughness of your data collection. I don't doubt your numbers at all. If anything the only huge inflation I ever see is not in consumer goods, but in appreciating assets.

"Hedonic regression model" sounds fancy and all, but look at their charts just filled with arbitrary numbers accessing various features. Funny to see how they weighted various, now failed, technologies/features.

What metrics would you use to determine if an iPhone is better quality than older models? Quality sounds rather subjective and they did not always calculate CPI with taking that into account. Seems like they don't share the criteria th
